and rear of the machine, then grasp the recovery tank handle and pull up.
3. Pour up to 2 gallons of hot water into the solution tank. Water temperature must not exceed 140°F(60°C). This unit has
a built-in heater that will supply continuous hot water at the spray tip.Add a non-foaming cleaning concentrate for use
in extractors at the proportions noted on the container.
4. To reattach the tanks, place the recovery tank on top of the solution tank and fasten the two latches.
5. Attach the solution hose female quick connect fitting to the brass male fitting located on the side of the extractor on the
base.
6. Attach the vacuum hose to the vacuum inlet port on the recovery tank.
7. Plug the power cord into a grounded wall socket.
8. Turn on the pump (Figure 1, set the switch to the right to turn on both the pump and the vacuum. Setting the switch to
the left turns on only the vacuum motor and the middle position is off) and spray through your cleaning tool and heater
for a few seconds to fill the lines with water, then turn the switch off.
9. Turn on the heat switch (Figure 1) to allow the heater two minutes to reach operating temperature.

ing occurs, use a defoaming agent in the recovery tank to prevent damage to electrical components. Water damage is
not covered by the warranty.
