PRECAUTIONSINFORMATION
Your mobile carpet cleaningplant has been engineeredusing the
latest and most sophisticatedtechnologyavailable,to produce the
finest carpet clean[ngresults possible. Desp!te this however,it remains only a tool of the carpet cleanlng trade, and it can produce
only as good a job as the person operattngIt.
There are no short cuts to good carpet cleaning,it requires time,
cleaningknowledgeand the use of good chemicals.
Manufacturerrecommendsthe use of spotting agents, and traffic
lane cleaners prior to the actual cleaning of carpeting,as required.
CAUTIONwhen cleaningcut-pile acrllan plush carpets: Using high
heat setting may result in ftber damage
The use of some chemicalsthrough your mobile carpet cleanlng
plant can seriouslydamagethe internal plumbing,high pressure
pump and heater.(Chemicalsuch as concentratedacids and
some paint oil and greaseremoversw/highconcentrationof
solvents.)
Manufacturerrecommendsonly the use of chemicalscontaining
rust and corrosioninhibitorsand water softening agents to prevent
chemicalbuild-up.
NOTE: At no time should a chemicalsolutlon with pH of less than 7
or higher than 10 be used In the unit.
CLEANINGSTROKE
PROCEDURE/OVER-WETTING
Purpose:
To ellminateexcess moisture remainingIn the carpet fiber and the
sawtoothappearancewhich results from diagonalmovementof
the cleanlngtool on all types of carpet
Procedure:
Always move the cleaningiool In smooth forwardand backward
strokes. Apply slight pressure to [he forward stroke while the solution is Injected Into the carpet When extracting(drying), apply firm
pressure on the forwardstroke to ensure a positive“lock”’ for the
vacuum and mlntmize the “hopping”effect resulting on unsmooth
carpet. During the forwardand reverse strokes, movementto the
right or left should only be accomplishedat the extreme rear of the
stroke. OverlappingIS also Important to ensure even applicationof
solutionto preventsaturationwhen cleanlngwandis stopped
twice at the same point al the rear of the cleaningstroke.
Failure to adopt this procedurecan result In Increasedchance of
“cleanstreaks”,
periods.

WATER AND
CHEMICALFLOW
OPERATION
This system has been designed to be the most simple and troublefree ever
The incomingwater flows directly to the mlx tank. Water WIII now
flow through a proporhonlngvalve which WIII simultaneouslymlx
the chemicalto achieveyour desiredsolution.The mlx tank IS
equippedwith 2 differentfloat valves, one of which responds [o the
water level of the tank and WIII mainiainthe proper volume of solution to be reserved for the cat pump. The secondaryfloat valve IS a
safety valve that IS designed to protect your system from sudden or
unexpectedloss of water supply. ff, for example,the water source
at the house was turned off, the waterlevel of the mlx tank
would drop. activatingthe secondaryvalve which automatically
disengagesthe electricpump clutch.
In conjunctionwith the incomingflow, the chemicalratio may be
obtainedby an adjustmentof the chemical flow meter during the fill
cycle of the mix tank. The chemicalwill flow from the chemical Jug
to the chemicalflow meter, then to the proportionerwhere It IS
distributedinto the mix tank at your de.wred proportion.This line
shouldbe flushedwithvinegarweeklyto preventabnormal
chemicalbuild-up. This may be done by removing the clear plastlc
hose from the chemicaljug and insertingit into a one quart container of vinegar. This should be done with the chemical flow meter
setting on 10 GPH with heater “off” Simply spray the wand for the
durationof the vinegar in the one quart container,then repeat the
process with clear water to void all lines of vinegar.
NOTE: With this uniquechemicalsystem, your chemicalflow is
proportionedto the filling cycles of the mix tank, not the direct
spraying of the wand. Therefore,it is possible that as your wand IS
spraying,you may have no chemicalflow. Also, the converseIS
true In that you may not be spraying your wand but, if the mlx tank
IS In a ftlhng cycle your chem{cal flow rmeter may read vour desired
flow
This chemicalsystem WIII mlx a 1 1030 ratio when flow meter IS sei
at 5 GPH. Most chemicalsuppllersWIII recommenda 1 10 15 ratio
thereforeyou can either set the flow meter at 10 GPH, glwng you a
1 to 15 rat!o of chemicalto cleaningwater, or double the recoin.

WATER SOFTENER
Many areas of the country have an excess of mineralsin the water
which results in what is commonlycalled“hard water”.These
mineralstend to adhere to the insides of heater coils and other
parts of the machinescausingdamageand a loss of cleaning
effectiveness,
Reportsfrom severalof our machineusers commendingthe
results of the use of water softenersin conjunctionwith their
machinespromptsus to recommendthe procedureto everyoneIn
a “hard water” area,
The relativelylow cost of a water softenerservice is more than
made up for in the increasedlife of machineparts and cont[nued
cleaningefficiency.The water softener will also increase the effectivenessof the cleaningchemicalbeingused, therefore,less
chemicalwill be needed,
.
Contact a water softener distributorin your area for informationon
the rental of a simple water treatmentunit to carry in your truck. Be
sure to change the water softener in accordancewith the capability of the softener, Example:If the softener will treat 900 gallons of
water and the machinesuses an average of 30 gallons per hour of
use on an average of 5 hours a day would be 150 gallons a day
would be treated,Five days would equal 750 gallonsof water,
therefore,the softener would be changedevery 6 working days for
maximumsoftening,

CHEMICALTANK TROUBLE SHOOTING
PROBLEM:No or Low ChemicalFlow
Solution
Check that hoses in the tank are secured.Check that the
hose from the top of the flow meter to the side of the mix
tank IS securedwith no kinks. Check the hose from the
bottomof the flow meter to the chemicaljug for kinks or
cracks.
Check the foot valve and screen on the end of the hose
which goes into the mix tank. To check this screen for
properfunction,removeit from the plastichose. You
shouldbe able to suck throughthe hose barb end, but you
shouldnot be able to blow throughthe hose barb end. (If
you can not suck throughit then rinse It out with vinegar. )
When screen IS removedthe chemicalfill hose shouldbe
lifted into a verticalpositionso the ball In the foot valve
will seat by gravity.(This is only a temporaryfix for low
water pressureareas. )
Check flow meter for float obstruction.
Check to insure that the adjustingscrew on proportioning
venturiis backedout.
Is proportioningventuriclosed?Soak in warm water or
vinegarsolution,
Is incomingwater pressureless than 20 PSI?
Crackedor defectivechemicalflow meter?
NOTE: If you are in a low water pressurearea and find that
the volumeof water enteringthe mix tank is not enoughto
allow your venturito siphonchemical,unscrewthe spring
from the foot valve screenand removethe spring,

The vacuumblowerincorporatedin this machineis a positive
displacementlobe type, manufacturedby Cooper Industries.The
performanceand life of this unit is greatly dependenton the care
and proper maintenanceit receives.
Because of the close tolerancesbetweenthe lobes and housing of
the vacuum blower, solid objects enteringthe inlet will damage the
internal lobes, gears and bearing or direct drive coupler.
To prevent this, a stainlesssteel filter screen has been placed at
the vacuum inlet inside the vacuumrecovery tank. This stainless
steel screenis finger tight and shouldbe removedweekly for
cleaning.
Cautionshould be used when machineis being run for test purpose and the vacuuminlet on top of machineis open,
To protect the vacuumblower from overloadingand damaging
itself, there is a vacuumrelief systeminstalledon the vac tank.
When the vacuum tank inlet is completelysealed off, a maximum
of 12 HG will be attained.A blower lube port is located above the
vacuum gauge; at the end of each day, LPS 1 or WD-40 is sprayed
in beforeshuttingdownthe machine.See blowerlubrication
illustration.If you fail to lubricatethe vacuumblower daily, rust
deposits and moisturewill decreasethe life of the vacuum blower,
Caution:Foam passingthrough the blower could lead to serious
problems,therefore,it is Importantto keep the vacuum tank foam
free.

,4s you remove your dischargemanifold,there IS a set of 3 check
valves (which usually fall out during dis-assembly).If the surfaces
of these check valves are dirty, or show signs of chemicalbuild-up,
[t IS probablethat they would remain open causing pressureloss
or pulsallon.Upon Inspectingthe valves, make sure that the teflon
buttons m the valve spring retainersare still Intacl. Also examine
the dischargemanifold.Look for problemssuchas cracks,
