Introduction
HVE durable driver is a drying extractor for commercial use. It could be deployed to flood and water
damage restoration tasks. It maximizes water removal from carpets and other surfaces.
The unit utilizes a polymer glide head that comes with a smooth self-healing edge designed to glide
over the carpet easily. It is a special diver that is propelled by two electrical motors rated 0.1 HP.
They are operated through a joystick. Separating the drive wheels allows the unit to create a hazard
that may void the warranty. For more details on this, contact your distributor.
You will need to read this manual, understand it before you power and use the unit.
It would be best if you took precautions not to run over the cord. Check for the damaged cord or
touch the casing with ungloved hands when the unit is running.
Turn off controls before unplugging the unit. Also, remember to unplug the unit from the source of
power if it is not in use. Please do not pull the cord to unplug it.
Look for obstructions and any other hazard before turning or backing up the unit. Remain cautious if
near the stairs.
Check for obstructions and hazards before turning it on and do not allow children to play around the
unit. Ensure the unit is not accessible to children.

Operating Instruction
Set up the unit as follows:
1. Remove any stagnant water that is more than ½ an inch deep. Use a submersible pump
to remove the water. It ensures that you do not operate the unit in standing water to reduce
the possibility of damaging the motor.
2. Ensure you remove any water around the unit using any of the machine designed to extract
water.
3. The unit should be stored standing upright. Remove the cord from the storage compartment
and place it on a flat surface with wheels facing up, as shown in the diagram below.
Place with front loading wheels facing up.
Stand with feet on center of footpads.
Front loading wheel
You may then remove the locking pins and replace the pins. Connect the extraction machine
to the horse and connect it to HVE durable driver. The horse should be securely connected to
the machine before turning the HVE durable driver on. A horse with a diameter of 2 inches
could be used.
Before you plug the HVE durable driver, ensure the joystick is in the neutral position. Plug in the
unit and switch it on using the lower switch located on the right side of the control box. The light
will indicate when the HVE durable driver is on.
If you want to extract the maximum amount of water, it is recommended that you use a portable
extraction machine.
PRECAUTION !
Getting started
Position the HVE unit on the carpet to extract water.
It extracts water from the surface, and so it should not be used on hard surfaces. As you do this,
check the sharp edges and the extraction head. You should never operate the unit without the
glide in place. Replace the polymer glide head before powering the unit.
Hold both handles for good baance. Use minimal force when operating the joystick, using one
or two fingers. Move the joys-tick lever forward to propel the Rover HVE forward, and re-lease it
to make the unit stop. Move the joystick lever toward you to go backwards. Move the joystick
left or right to turn in the direction desired
Extraction Tips
Notice! Extract only on the surface and do not allow the head to come into contact the track strip or the
sharp pins. Also, avoid running the head over hard surfaces or metal strips. Check sharp edges and
burs on the polymer glide and check for the possibility of damaging the carpet fibre when the glide
snags the yams.
CAUTION! Always look in the direction you are driving. Take special care when operating
near stairways or other obstacles.
Do not run over the power cord, as it could damage the cord and create an electrical hazard.
Notice! Ensure the extraction is not excessive. Also, consider stopping when you notice that the unit is
removing too little water. It reduces the chances of the unit bending or buckling, which may ruin the carpet.
Notice! Take care to stop the unit from striking or rubbing against the baseboard. Also, extract using a
carpet wand only. And tether the house code so as to allow the extraction hose and power cord to drag
behind you. Ensure it does not block your way while moving the unit.
NOTICE! Don’t run over hose and cord!
If you want to operate the unit efficiently, ensure you start it on a low speed. It helps to maximize
extraction. You may begin working on the entryway where the extraction hose enters. It allows you to
work towards the room.

2. Have a pattern that should be followed. For instance, you may start by covering the floor surface but
ensure that no area is repeated
3. Gently move the unit’s joysteak to turn the HVE Durable into the desired direction. This must be done
gently to avoid jerks and wheelies. It reduces delaminating or damaging the carpet
4.he equipment will drive forward and backwards and turn in a circle. It extracts with the grain of the
carpet, but when you feel the HVE durable Driver beginning to track, you will need to stop moving and
recalibrate the unit. You will need to push the joystick forward a little bit as you press the button for
calibration. Ensure you align it to the mark that indicates the button location is at the centre of the H.
5 Ensure the unit is run on the carpet but at a low speed. You may increase the speed of the carpet is
extremely wet. Check the tube leading to the horse if it indicates a small amount of water being
removed; stop extracting to reduce chances of delaminating the carpet. Also, ensure you check the
clear tube regularly as you extract.
Check
clear take-up tube regularly during extraction.

Storage and Transportation
1. To prepare the unit for transportation and storage, lay it on a flat surface while the wheels are facing
up. Support the handle with one hand and pull out the pins. Fold the handle and replace the pins to
help lock the handle. The unit should then be placed on a flat surface while the power cord should be
placed on a compartment located under the unit. Besides, the arm should be placed in a cord
compartment.
To load it on a truck, use the front loading wheel and the handle to carry the unit.
2. When transporting, it should be secured against the wall of the van and should be transported in an
upright position. A strong impact may damage the gear, the motor or internal parts.
