GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
86039020 VOYAGER E 08/20/07 2-3
THIS PRODUCT IS FOR COMMERCIAL USE
ONLY.
ELECTRICAL:
In the USA this machine operates on a standard 15
amp 115V, 60 hz, A.C. power circuit. The amp,
hertz, and voltage are listed on the data label found
on each machine. Using voltages above or below
those indicated on the data label will cause serious
damage to the motors.
EXTENSION CORDS:
If an extension cord is used, the wire size must be at
least one size larger than the power cord on the
machine, and must be limited to 50 feet (15.5m) in
length.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This appliance must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt
circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the
plug in “Fig. A”. A temporary adaptor that looks like
the adaptor in “Fig. C” may be used to connect this
plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in “Fig. B”, if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adaptor should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear,
lug, or wire extending from the adaptor must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal
screw.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified 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
appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

4-1
EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE TANKS
Empty the Recovery Tank directly into the floor
drain via drain hose. After each use, rinse tank
(including the float shut-off) with fresh water.
Periodically inspect the recovery tank and
decontaminate if necessary, using a Hospital
Grade Virucide or a 1-10 bleach to water
solution. This will dissipate the exposure to
blood born or infectious contamination. Waste
water should be disposed of properly. Clean the
inside of the recovert dome also.
Empty the Solution Tank by detaching the sight
hose and empty directly into the floor drain.
Flush the Solution System with 1 gallon of
CLEAN water.
NEVER ALLOW
RECOVERED
SOLUTION TO REMAIN IN TANK WHEN NOT
IN USE; NOR ALLOW UNUSED SOLUTION
TO REMAIN IN THE SOLUTION TANK WHEN
IN STORAGE. INSPECT AND CLEAN THE
FILTER LOCATED UNDER THE MACHINE
NEAR THE PUMP. REMOVE AND RINSE
WITH HOT WATER.
To prevent clogged jets due to alkaline build-up,
the spray system should be flushed with 1
gallon of clean hot water at the end of each
work day. The VOYAGER-E is equipped with
“quick change” jets that can be easily removed
for cleaning. To remove – push jet in and rotate.
Do not use pins or wire to remove obstruction
as this will damage jet and alter spray pattern.

VAC SHOE TRACKING
To adjust vac shoe tracking, move eyebolts in
or out to increase or decrease spring force,
respectively, until desired tracking is reached.
VAC SHOE DOWNPRESSURE
NOTE:Downpressure is factory set and
should not require adjustment.
If adjustment of downpressure is required, turn
nut on top of vac shoe clockwise to increase
downpressure and counterclockwise to
decrease downpressure.
VAC SHOE ANGLE
NOTE: The angle of the vac shoe is factory
set and should not require adjustment.
Periodically inpsect the vac shoe angle by
resting it on a hard flat surface. Use a square
to verify 90° angle between the floor and
veritcal surface of the vac shoe.
If adjustment is required, remove one socket on
each lower arm (from the vac shoe or bracket)
and turn clockwise or counterclockwise to
change the angle to the recommended 90°.
Attach the socket on each arm to its respective
location and recheck the angle using the
square. Repeat if necessary.

&
Do not use a
pressure washer to
clean around the vacuum motors. Use tap
pressure only. Care must be taken so that
water is not directed into vacuum motor air
intakes.
CHANGING VACUUM MOTOR
1. Tip the tank forward for access to the
vacuum motor.
2. Disconnect electrical connector to the
vacuum motor.
3. Loosen clamp and disconnect hose from
vacuum intake.
4. Remove vacuum motor mounting bracket
bolts, which are located on the frame.
5. Remove vacuum motor from mounting
bracket assembly.
6. Reverse steps to install.
MICRO SWITCH REPLACEMENT
1. For brush and reverse switches, align the
two switches and check to see that the
actuator tabs are even to within 1/16 inch. If
required, bend the lower tab up to match the
higher tab.
2. Install the switches with the screws loose
enough to allow the top screw to slide in the
mounting slot.
3. With the lever in the top position, slide the
switches back until they both click, tighten
the switches in this position.
Important:
These brushes wear quicker as the length shortens
due to increased heat. Spring inside brush housing
will damage motor if brushes are allowed to wear
away completely.
Periodically check the length of the carbon brushes.
Replace both carbon brushes when either is less than
3/8" (9.5mm) long.
