IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This machine is only suitable for commercial use, for example in hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops, and ofﬁ ces other than normal residential housekeeping purposes.

When using any electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of ﬁ re, electric shock, or injury:

• Do not leave the machine unattended when it is plugged-in. Unplug the unit from the power outlet

when not in use.

• Always use a defoamer when foaming occurs to prevent damage to vacuum motor(s).

• Unplug the machine from the power outlet before cleaning or servicing.

• To avoid electric shock, do not expose to rain or snow. Store, and use, indoors.

• Wear hearing protection if desired. The measured sound level of the MX 103 C is 79dB(A).

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used near children.

• Use only the manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

• Inspect the power cord regularly for damage, such as cracking, ageing, or damaged insulation. Replace

the power cord with the same type as original if any damage is found. Do not use with damaged cord or plug.

• Use approved chemicals only. Never use solvents.

• Do not let the pump run dry.

• If the machine is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or ﬂ ooded with

water, return it to a service center.

• Do not pull the machine by the cord, do not use the cord as a handle, close a door on the cord, or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run the machine over the cord. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Extension cords must be 12 gauge and no longer than 15 m. Replace the cord or unplug immediately if the ground prong becomes damaged.

• Never ﬁ ll the tank with water above 54º C.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint,

hair, and anything that may reduce air ﬂ ow.

• Keep loose clothing, hair, ﬁ ngers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes, or any

health endangering dusts. Do not use to pick up ﬂ ammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Liquid ejected at the spray nozzle could be dangerous as a result of its temperature, pressure, or

chemical content.

INSPECTION:

Carefully unpack and inspect your MX 103 C for shipping damage. Each machine is tested and inspected before shipping. Any shipping damage incurred is the responsibility of the carrier. You should notify the carrier immediately if you notice damage to the box or to the machine or parts.

CLEANING SOLUTIONS:

We recommend liquid cleaning chemicals. Powder chemicals may be used, but unless mixed very thoroughly they could cause a build-up in the pump, lines, and/or quick disconnects. Any problem caused by a chemical build-up is not covered by warranty. Use a neutral cleaner with a pH between 6 and 10 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.

MAINTENANCE:

For optimum performance ﬂ ush the machine with clear water at the end of each working day. Once a month, minimum, run a ﬂ ushing compound through the machine to break up any mineral or chem- ical build-up that may have formed. The vacuum motor, pump motor, and the pump do not require any scheduled maintenance; however, the motors may require replacement brushes after 1000 1500 hours. Clean the body with an all-purpose detergent, and protect it with an automobile interior polish. Lubricate the wheels, castors, and quick disconnects with an all purpose silicone spray.

PARTS AND SERVICE:

Repairs, when required, should be performed by your authorized distributor who maintains an inventory of original replacement parts and accessories. Call the distributor from whom you purchased this machine if you need parts and service. Be sure to specify the machine model. Have your serial number handy.
