SET-UP:
1.
Fill the holding tank with clear water and prespray with the detergent of your choice (we recommend a CRI approved chemical).
Mix well. Although this machine is designed to supply instant hot water, the addition of warm water to the holding tank would
increase heater ef
fi
ciency. Never use water above 130º F/54º C in the solution tank.
2. Turn off all the switches. Plug in cord #1. (This cord runs the pump and vacuum).
3. Attach the priming hose to the machine and place the open end into the tank.
4. Turn on the pump (turn pump pressure dial all the way clockwise) and let it run until the pump is fully primed (approximately 30
seconds to 1 minute). Once the pump is primed, turn off the pump and disconnect the priming hose. Attach the cleaning hose and
tool.
IF YOU WANT HEATED SOLUTION:
5. Plug in the heater cord (identi
fi
ed by “H” on the back of the machine).
NOTE:
If the green circuit indicator light does not
illuminate when the heater cord is plugged in, then both cords are on the same circuit. Try other outlets until the light comes
on. See Bypass Switch section (below) if you are unable to get a green light.
6. Turn the heat knob clockwise to the desired temperature.
7. Turn on the pump and spray through your tool a few times to
fi
ll the lines with solution. Begin cleaning.
8. Re
fi
ll and empty the tanks as necessary.
9. When
fi
nished with the job, vacuum all unused solution into the recovery tank, and dump the tank. Clean the tanks and
fi
lters.
Clean the tool and hoses. Store the machine in a heated location.
ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LOCATOR:
This unique, patented “smart system,” operated by a solid state circuit, will inform the operator when the two cords are plugged into
separate lines by illuminating the green, indicator light. This helps prevent tripping circuit breakers.
BYPASS SWITCH:
The bypass switch (#6) completely bypasses the circuit locator system. Use this feature when you cannot get the green Locator
light (#5) to come on and you believe that the two cords are on separate circuits.
CAUTION: If the bypass switch is on when the two cords are plugged into the same circuit, the breaker in the
wall panel may trip.
AUTO VACUUM SHUTOFF:
When the recovery tank is full, the
fl
oat system will shut off the vacuum motor to prevent the machine from over
fl
owing. The
fl
oat
may not work in foam. Always use a defoamer to prevent over
fl
ow. Once the vacuum motor shuts off, the vac switch (#7) must be
turned off, the recovery tank emptied, and then the vacuum switch turned back on (up position) to get the vacuum motor started
again.
CAUTION: Always make sure the
fl
oat is clean and travels freely before turning on the machine. A
fl
oat that is
stuck will cause the vacuum motor to suck in water, resulting in vac motor damage.
PUMP PRESSURE:
Make sure the cleaning tool is spraying when adjusting the pressure, otherwise the pressure reading will be inaccurate.
