YOUR NEW MACHINE:
Xaact Products thoroughly tests every machine
it sells before it is packaged. When you receive
your new machine, examine the packaging for
signs of shipping damage. Carefully unpack the
machine and inspect it. If you see evidence of
damage to the container or the contents, contact
the freight carrier immediately.
Additionally, ensure all parts and accessories are
present; if you notice anything missing, contact
your distributor without delay.
SYSTEM FEATURES:
HEAT: The Xtract 200 has a built-in heater. One
switch activates either high heat or low heat.
A green, separate circuit indicator light - located
on the switch plate - will illuminate when the two
power cords are plugged into outlets on different
circuits. This aids the operator in fi nding separate
circuits, which may avoid tripped breakers.
VACUUM: The vacuum motor provides an
excellent ratio of water lift to air movement (see
specs, page 2). Carpets should dry quickly if not
over-wetted while cleaning.
PUMP: The pump is a ‘demand’ style -- it only
runs when there is a demand for spray. This
feature increases the life of the pump.
CHEMICALS:
The use of clear water in the machine is
recommended, with the application of properly
diluted cleaner as a pre-spray on the area to
be cleaned; however, you may mix water and
cleaning chemicals in a bucket -- according to
directions on the chemical label -- and then
pour into the solution tank. If you chose to use
chemicals in the machine, always use a cleaner
with a pH as close to neutral as possible to avoid
premature wear of the pump, seals, and/or other
components. Damage caused by the use of
strong chemicals is not covered by the warranty.
The use of powder chemicals is discouraged;
unless they are mixed very thoroughly and rinsed
out completely at the end of the job, powdered
cleaners could cause a build-up in the pump,
lines, heater and/or quick disconnects. Any
problem caused by a chemical build-up is not
covered by warranty.
If foaming occurs as you clean, use a defoamer,
either in the recovery tank or on the area being
cleaned, to prevent overfl ow which can cause
water damage to machine components.
TOOLS & ACCESSORIES:
Use only manufacturer’s recommended tools
and accessories. If the spray valve on your
cleaning tool begins to leak or if the spray tips
get worn and are no longer providing a nice
even spray pattern, order replacements from
your distributor.
CARE & MAINTENANCE:
For continual peak operation, clean the internal
plumbing by rinsing with clear water at the end of
each job. About once a month, rinse the machine
with a commercial fl ushing compound to break-
up any mineral or chemical accumulation that
may have formed from the use of hard water
or chemicals.
The vacuum motor and the pump do not require
any scheduled maintenance; however, the
vacuum motor may require replacement brushes
after 750-1000 hours.
To help maintain a professional image; clean
the exterior of the machine with an all purpose
detergent, and protect it with automobile interior
polish. Lubricate the wheels, castors, and quick
disconnects with an all purpose, silicone spray.
