machine.

operating or servicing this machine.
WET PICKUP
1]Remove vacuum head and remove the
cloth or paper filter from vacuum, install the
bubble buster.
2]While vacuum head is removed, check to
make sure that the float shut-off is
unobstructed and fully functional.
3]Replace vacuum head and latch it in place.
4] Connect vacuum hose to inlet on the
machine body.
5]Attach appropriate accessory tool for the
job to be completed.
6]Plug power cord into a grounded outlet.
* Do not use an extension cord in conjunction
with the standard power cord.
7] If using the front-mounted squeegee
assembly, be sure that squeegee is
attached to front of machine.
8] If using the front-mounted squeegee
assembly, lower squeegee to the floor by
depressing the top half of the pedal [rear of
the machine] forward with your foot.
9]Turn power switch to “on” position.
10] During wet pickup, the float shut-off will
automatically prevent water from entering
the recovery tank once the recovery tank is
full.
* If foam develops in the recovery tank during

help eliminate the foam. Foam will not activate
the float shut-off, and therefore, may cause
vacuum motor damage.

transport position, depress the bottom half of
the pedal [rear of the machine] downward
with your foot.
* Be sure that the handle is properly assembled
on machine body prior to operating
