UPHOLSTERY CLEANING
Run unit on low speed. Upholstery tools have a lower flow rate and smaller orifices. Switch the temperature control to
the desired temperature range. To maintain proper cleaning temperatures, make certain that the unit has been fully
heated up prior to cleaning.
STAIR TOOL CLEANING
Run unit on low speed. Switch the temperature control to the desired temperature range.
FLOOD RESTORATION/EXTRACTION
Set the throttle control on the front control panel to a minimum of 50% of throttle control maximum. Make certain that
the water pump switch is in the OFF position Proceed into the extraction process.
DUAL WAND OPERATION
The model Apex 570 has sufficient capacity for dual wand operation with minimal pressure loss at each wand. The
pump pressure and temperature can remain at the same levels as for single wand operation. The chemical flow rate
may be set slightly higher than for single wand operation.
Always use the LOWEST flow rate that properly cleans the affected areas. Excessive chemicals can cause damage to the
items being cleaned.
GAUGE READINGS AND SETTINGS
VACUUM PRESSURE GAUGE
With the unit running, the vacuum gauge should read near zero with vacuum hoses disconnected from the vacuum
inlets. If the gauge shows a reading, check the filter in the waste tank and the strainer baskets in both the waste tank
and pre-filter box for debris. With vacuum ports sealed, and machine running at high speed, the vacuum gauge should
read 11 to 13 inches of mercury (in. Hg). This is preset by the factory for the maximum safe operation. Depending on
elevation, this may need to be reset at time of installation.
DO NOT exceed 13 in. Hg vacuum pressure. This can cause damage to the vacuum pump.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The low speed setting is for upholstery and delicate cleaning. Set the machine to medium speed for single wand
operation. The high speed setting is for dual wand operation or the use of a powered cleaning tool, such as the Sapphire
Scientific HOSS. If a lower temperature is desired, open the temperature control valve on the instrument panel until the
desired temperature is obtained. The highest temperatures will be achieved with the valve closed.
