Set-Up / Prepare Unit for Use
IMPORTANT: Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
•
All spot extractors, no matter what the time of year, are shipped with antifreeze in the solution lines. Prior to first use, fill the
tank with one quart of warm water. Attach the hose and using the hand tool wand, flush out the system by spraying the
one quart of water through the pump.
•
Attach the 1-1/2 inch vacuum hose and the brass quick disconnect.
•
Fill the base unit (the recovery tank must be removed) with warm water (less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit). Fill to
approximately 4 inches from the top. Pre-spray a liquid detergent made for carpet cleaning or upholstery on carpet and
agitate carpet. Next, use clean water from solution tank to extract – this procedure is highly recommended. Note: read and
mix your pre-spray solution to the dilution ratios as directed.
•
NEVER run the vacuum only with the pump on for more than 3 minutes, Water/solution needs to run through the pump at
all times to keep the pump cool while in use. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
•
Be sure to replace any filters back into the machine prior to use.
•
Do not use citrus acid, buterol or harsh degreasers inside the machine.
Vacuum Shut-Off
The spot extractor is designed with a vacuum restrictor to reduce the vacuum when the
recovery tank is full. When the vacuum is restricted, the liquid will not travel up the nozzle
of the hand tool. The motor speeds up (the sound of the motor will change) and this is your
warning to dispose of recovered solution. The restrictor is a foam float that slides up and down
the vacuum tube in the recovery tank as shown in the photo to the right.
Following Each Use
Remove the vacuum hose from the upper body, un-clip, rotate latch on the back of the unit
and remove the upper section of the spotter. Dispose of the used solution by pouring the
solution out of the vacuum inlet (not the hatch cover) into the toilet or janitor's closet sink.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is required to keep your spot extractor in proper working condition. Failure to properly
maintain your machine could void warranty. Thoroughly clean all equipment and accessories after each use:
•
Rinse the solution and recover tanks with clean water.
•
Flush the pump system with clean water, including all hoses and wand(s).
•
Do not allow water to remain in the tanks after use.
•
Lubricate all quick disconnects with WD-40 or similar lubricant.
•
Clean vacuum float assembly screen.
WARNING: Disconnect electrical power cord before performing any service or maintenance inside the machine base
or before testing or repairing switches or power cords. Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury or death.
