SWITCH PLATE

HEAT CONTROL (1):

This dial controls the water temperature.  Turn it clockwise 
to increase water temperature and counterclockwise to 
decrease temperature.  The heater will operate only if the 
circuit locator light (#5) or the bypass switch (#6) is on.

HEAT MODE LIGHT (2):

This light will only illuminate when the heater is heating and 
will turn off when it reaches operating temperature.  During 
normal operation, the “MODE” light will be on most of the 
time.

PUMP CONTROL (3):

This dial controls motor speed and pump pressure.  Adjust 
the dial clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise 
to decrease pressure or turn off pump.  The pump runs off of 
cord #1.  The pump spraying pressure will be observable at 
the pressure gauge.

VACUUM SWITCH (4):

This switch will illuminate when the vacuum motors are on.  
The vacuum motors run off of cord #1.

CIRCUIT LOCATOR (5):

When this light is on, it indicates that cord #2  (Identi

fi

 ed by 

the red “H” on the back of the extractor.) is on a separate 
line from cord #1.  Cord #2 supplies voltage to the heater 
allowing it to heat to the temperature range indicated by the 
Heat Control dial (#1) on the switch plate.

BYPASS SWITCH (6):

The bypass switch will illuminate when it is activated and 
will completely bypass the circuit locator system.  Use this 
system only when the circuit locator light will not turn on and 
you know each cord is on a separate circuit.

CAUTION: 

THE CIRCUIT BREAKER CAN TRIP IF BOTH CORDS 

ARE ON THE SAME CIRCUIT AND THE BYPASS (heat) SWITCH IS 
TURNED ON.

NEVER LET YOUR MACHINE OR YOUR WAND FREEZE
