SET-UP:
1.
Fill the holding tank with clear water and prespray with the detergent of your choice (we recommend a CRI
approved chemical). Mix well. Although this machine is designed to supply instant hot water, the addition
of warm water o the holding tank would increase heater efficiency. Never use water above 130º F/54º C
in the solution tank.
2. Turn off all the switches. Plug in cord #1. (This cord runs the pump and vacuum).
3. Attach the priming hose to the machine and place the open end into the tank.
4. Turn on the pump on, and let it run until the pump is fully primed (approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute).
Once the pump is primed, turn off the pump and disconnect the priming hose. Attach the cleaning hose
and tool.
IF YOU WANT HEATED SOLUTION:
5. Plug in the the heater cord (identified by “H” on the back of the machine). NOTE: If the green circuit
indicator light does not illuminate when the heater cord is plugged in, then both cords are on the
same circuit. Try other outlets until the light comes on. See Bypass Switch section (below) if you are
unable to get a green light.
IF YOU WANT TO PRE-HEAT THE SOLUTION IN THE HOLDING TANK
6. Turn on both the pump and heat recirculation switches. NOTE: this switch will recirculate heated
water back to the holding tank, untili it reaches 125 °F. At that point, the recirculation will
automatically stop. If the temperature of the water in the tank drops below 125 °F, and if the
recirculation switch is still turned ON, the system will begin to recirculate the the water again until
it gets back up to 125 °F. You can choose to let the solution in your holding tank reach 125° or
you can choose to begin cleaning sooner than that.
NOTE: the time that it will take for your solution to reach 125 °F will vary with the temperature of
the solution that you put into the tank, the ambient temperature, the amount of solution in your
tank, etc.
YOU MUST TURN THE HEAT RECIRCULATION SWITCH OFF BEFORE YOU BEGIN
CLEANING, otherwise your pump pressure will be very low.
7. Turn on the pump and spray through your tool a few times to fill the lines with solution. Begin cleaning.
8. Refill and empty the tanks as necessary.
9. When finished with the job, vacuum all unused solution into the recovery tank, and dump the tank. Clean
the tanks and filters. Clean the tool and hoses. Store the machine in a heated location. Do NOT freeze.
ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LOCATOR:
This unique, patented “smart system,” operated by a solid state circuit, will inform the operator when the two cords are plugged
into separate lines by illuminating the green, indicator light. This helps prevent tripping circuit breakers.
BYPASS SWITCH:
The bypass switch (#6) completely bypasses the circuit locator system. Use this feature when you cannot get the green
Locator light (#5) to come on and you believe that the two cords are on separate circuits.
CAUTION: If the bypass switch is on when the two cords are plugged into the same circuit, the breaker may trip.
AUTO VACUUM SHUTOFF:
When the recovery tank is full, the float system will shut off the vacuum motor to prevent the machine from overflowing. The
float may not work in foam. Always use a defoamer to prevent overflow. Once the vacuum motor shuts off, the vac switch (#7)
must be turned off, the recovery tank emptied, and then the vacuum swtich turned back on (up position) to get the vacuum
motor started again.
CAUTION: Always make sure the float is clean and travels freely before turning on the machine. A float that is
stuck will cause the vacuum motor to suck in water, resulting in vac motor damage.
