SET-UP AND OPERATION
:
1. Fill the holding tank with clear water and pre-spray 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 to 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 (turn pump pressure dial all the way clockwise) 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 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.
6. Turn the heat knob, clockwise, to the desired temperature.
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.
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 circuit breaker in the wall panel may trip.
AUTO VACUUM SHUT-OFF:
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 switch 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.
PUMP PRESSURE:
Make sure the cleaning tool is spraying when adjusting the pressure, otherwise the pressure reading will
be inaccurate.
