INDOORS.
• All carpet extractors, no matter what the time of year, are shipped with antifreeze in
the solution lines. Prior to rst use, ll the solution tank with one quart of warm water.
Attach the hose and using a hand tool or wand, ush out the system by spraying the
one quart of water through the pump.
• Attach the vacuum hose and the brass quick disconnect.
• Fill the solution tank with warm water (less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit). Fill to
approximately 4 inches from the top. Pre-spray and agitate the surface with detergent
made for oor cleaning or upholstery. Use only warm water to extract the pre-spray
from the surface.
• Be sure to replace any lters back into the machine prior to use.
• Do not use citric acid, butyl glycol or harsh degreasers inside the machine.
2.1 Electrical
Plug cord(s) into 10 AMP grounded wall outlet(s). 10 AMP circuits are normally found in
kitchens and bathrooms. Never remove ground prong from the plug. If a circuit breaker
trips during operation, turn machine off, reset the breaker and move the electrical cord to
a different outlet and resume operation.
2.2 Vacuum System
Automatic Vacuum Shut-Off: The oat assembly shut-off, located in the recovery
tank on the vacuum stand pipe, prevents the waste tank from overowing into the stand
pipe and damaging the vacuum motor(s). The oat assembly will cut-off vacuum to the
waste tank. The motor(s) will also reach a fast, high-pitched sound alerting you when the
recovery tank is about to over ow. When this happens, immediately turn off the vacuum
motor(s) and empty the waste tank. If the operator continues to use machine after the tank
is full, it will void the Warranty.
The oat assembly has a lter to prevent lint and debris from entering the stand pipe.
Refer to the “Maintenance” section for removal and proper cleaning.
Recovery Tank: the vacuum system requires the use of an external lter. The clear
view in-line lter is included with the machine and must be used on every job.
It is also necessary to use a defoamer to eliminate foam build-up in the recovery
tank which could lead to foam/moisture entering the vacuums and contributing to
early failure of the vacuum motors.
If moisture does enter the vacuum motors, contact an authorized service center. To
prevent moisture from damaging the vacuum motors during storage, empty the recovery
tank and store with the lid open.

3.0 Grounding Instructions
DANGER: IMPROPER GROUNDING METHOD CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Electrical equipment must be grounded. If the machine should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the grounded
wire to a at bed terminal. The grounding wire is the wire with insulation and an outer
green surface, with or without yellow stripes.
Grounding Method
This equipment is designed to run on 230V/50 HZ electrical power. Equipment includes
a grounded plug. A 10 amp circuit is required to operate machine. 10 amp circuits are
normally found in kitchens and bathrooms. If a circuit breaker trips during operation,
reset the breaker and move the electrical cord to a different outlet to resume operation.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualied electrician or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with
the equipment. If the plug will not t into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualied electrician.
This is machine is equipped with an
Australian 3-prong plug.
