WARNING! This machine must be protected from conditions which may
damage the pump, tank, hoses and other components.
• Freezing of water in this machine will cause serious damage. The V115 Pump-out and hoses must be
protected from freezing temperature. Store, transport, and use this equipment only in temperatures well above
freezing. (32ºF or 0ºC). If you suspect the V115 Pump-out has been frozen, do not plug in or turn on machine
until you are sure it has thawed completely.
• If the equipment cannot be stored or transported in a warm environment, it can be guarded from freezing by
running an anti-freeze solution through the pump. The V115 Pump-out is filled at the factory with anti-freeze
to eliminate damage during shipment in cold weather.

Knowledge of the proper operation of the V115 Pump-out is required to
ensure user safety and efficient performance of the extractor.
SET UP AND OPERATION
Vacuum Hose Connection:
Connect the hose cuff from the 2” vacuum hose coming from the cleaning tool to one of the 2” hose barbs
on the inlet side of the V115 Pump-out. If you are using two tools the second hose can be connected to the
other barb. If you are only using one tool keep the rubber stopper in the second barb. Arrows indicate the
direction of the airflow from the tool to the extractor.
Connect the hose cuff from the 2” vacuum hose coming from the extractor to one of the 2” hose barbs on
the outlet side of the V115 Pump-out. If you are using two tools the second hose can be connected to the
other barb. If you are only using one tool keep the rubber stopper in the second barb.
For “4 to the Door” operation connect two 2” vacuum hoses to t
V115 Pump-out tank. A single 2” vacuum hose can run from one inlet port to the tool.
Starter Cuffs can be used to connect Flash Cuffs to the V115 Pump-out. Connect 2” Flash Cuff Male Starter
Cuffs (AH203) to the 2” hose barbs on the inlet side of the V115 Pump-out. Then connect your 2” Female
Flash cuffs. Standard 2” hose cuffs can still be used on the outlet side of the V115 Pump-out.

Electrical Connection:
Plug an extension cord into an 115v AC wall outlet. Use a GFCI protected outlet, a GFCI protected cord or
an external GFCI device to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
The V115 Pump-out only draws 5amps of power so most household outlets will safely handle the load.
If a circuit breaker trips during operation, reset the breaker and move the cord to another outlet as needed.
Connection of Pump-out Hose:
The pump-out hose is a 50’ section of 3/4” garden hose.
• Remove the cap from the pump-out discharge port fitting on the side of the tank.
• Connect the pump-out hose to the discharge port fitti
• Place the other end of the hose in a commode or drain connected to the sanitary sewer system.
• Secure hose end to prevent movement during pumping.
When ready to begin cleaning, turn the V115 Pump-out power switch to the ON position.
• Do not turn on waste pump switch unless pump-out hose is connected and has been routed
to a proper drain.

Maintenance
Section

Proper maintenance is required to keep the V115 Pump-out operating properly,
prevent downtime and to extend the life of your equipment.
WARNING: Disconnect electrical power before performing any service or
maintenance inside switch box or before testing or repairing the pump, switches or
power cord. Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury or death.
CLEAN THE FILTERS:
Build-up of debris in the Stainless Steel filters will reduce the vacuum air flow and may cause a significant
decrease in water recovery. A damaged filter screen will allow debris past the filter and into the pump-out
tank. This debris can clog the Waste Pump and the Float Switch Assembly. Clean the filter screens after each
use and replace the filters if damaged.
CLEAN THE TANK:
Build-up of fine silt and debris can damage the Waste Pump. Clean out the tank on a regular basis to extend
the life of these components as well as keep the tank looking and smelling better.
• Remove the tank lid and lay the tank on its side near
• Use a hose to rinse the dirt and debris out of the recovery tank.
• Close the drain valve and spray the tank with a deodorizer or disinfectant.
• Dispose of the dirty water and debris.
• Clean the outside surface of the tank.
• Wipe off the cord and hose. Examine hose and cord after each use and repair or replace as needed.
a drain.
CLEAN WASTE PUMP-OUT PUMP:
Build-up of fine silt inside the Waste Pump can clog the pump.
• After cleaning out the tank, remove the cap from the discharge port and connect the Pump-Out hose
to the discharge port fitting on the side of the tank; run the hose to a drain..
• With the cord plugged in, turn the Pump-out power switch to the ON position.
• Use a hose to fill the tank to the point where the float switch turns the Waste Pump ON.
• Let the pump run until it pumps the level down to the point when the float switch shuts off the Waste
Pump.
• Unplug the cord and turn the Pump-out power switch OF
• Disconnect the hose and place the cap on the discharge port fitting.
• Tip the tank over and drain out the remaining water. Scoop out and dispose of the debris.

Storage Prep and Freeze Protection Procedures:
Your V115 Pump-out must be protected from freezing. Freezing can cause serious damage to the pump, and
any other component containing water. If the V115 Pump-out is transported or stored in freezing
temperatures, the following procedures should be performed.
1. In the Pump-out tank mix 1/2 gallon of water with 1/2 gallon of non-toxic RV anti-freeze.
(Propylene glycol)
2. Remove the cap from the discharge port fitting on the side of the tank. Connect a hose to a drain or hold
a bucket up to the fitting to catch the pump-out flow.
3. Remove the lid from the Pump-out. Turn the Pump-out p
float switch to engage the pump-out. Lower the float and turn off the Waste Pump Switch as soon as you
see anti-freeze flowing from the outlet fitting or hose.
4. Drain the remaining anti-freeze solution from the tank. Remove the hose and place the cap back on the
discharge port fitting and the V115 Pump-out is ready for storage.
To return the V115 Pump-out to service, the anti-freeze does not need to be flushed from the machine. The
small amount of remaining anti-freeze will be removed with the waste water during operation.
