When using an electrical piece of equipment basic precautions should be followed, including the
following:
SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
Filter Installation
There are three filters in the ECO-500 AW Series system: gross debris filter, disposable inlet filter and in-tank
filter. It is imperative to the efficient operation of the ECO-500 AW Series that the filters are installed properly.
Disposable Inlet Filter
Place the disposable filter in recovery inlet area. Be sure
that wire container is in place before fitting the disposable
filter in place.
Gross Debris Filter
Position the gross debris filter over the disposable filter and attach
recovery inlet using the two swivel clamps.
In-Tank Filter
Soak in-tank filter inside and out in water before installing inside recov-
ery tank. Make sure water is coming through the filter wall when you fill
with water while holding the canister upside down. To install, simply
screw canister filter into place.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove lid and composite filter.
2. Check the in-tank filter. Make sure the in-take filter is installed snugly.
3. Fill tank with water to a desired level or 1” below the vacuum float switch. Warm water will be more
efficiently heated to desired temperature than cold water.
4. Add in-tank cleaner chemical for this extractor per chemical label use instructions. In addition, pre-spray-
ing is often desirable and will assist in producing the fastest and best cleaning results. See chemical product
labels for more information.
Note
: Use caution when moving machine (especially on inclines) with fluid in
the tank to prevent fluid from entering vacuum intake at back of machine tank and flooding the vacuum.
Chemicals for use in these extractors have been specially formulated to work with this machine.
5. If using the ECO 500 AWH Series, plug the receptacle cords into separate circuits. Green light will turn on
when properly connected. 115V model only.
6. Prime pump by re-circulating fluid through priming hose, included, for 15/30 seconds. Attach priming
hose to quick connect and turn pump on while placing opposite end of hose directly back into tank. Once
a steady stream of solution flows, you may turn off pump and remove priming hose. The machine is now
primed. Re-circulating the fluid primes the pump and expels trapped air from the system.
