ALL

INSTRUCTIONS. WARNING:

Do not

attempt

to

operate

until

you

have read thoroughly

and

understand completely

all

instructions, rules, etc. contained

in

this

manual. Failure

to

comply

can

result

in

accidents. Save Owners Manual

and

review frequently

for

continuing

safe operation

and

2.

WARNING

- TO

ELECTRICAL

SHOCK,

DO

NOT

EXPOSE

TO

RAIN - STORE

INDOORS.

3.

This cleaner

be

operated only

on 100 or 120

volts

at 60

cycles.

4.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD.

DO

NOT, UNDER

ANY

CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE

THE

POWER

SUPPLY

CORD GROUND

PRONG.

For

your personal

safety,

this appliance must

be

grounded. This appliance

is

equipped

with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug.

To

minimize possible shock hazard

it

must

be

plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding type wall receptacle, grounded

in

accordance

with

the

National Electrical Code

and

local codes

and

ordinances.

If a

mating wall receptacle

is

not

available,

it is the

personal responsibility

and

obligation

of the

customer

to

have a properly

grounded

3-prong wall receptacle installed

by a

qualified electrician.

5.

The

power cord

should

always

be

disconnected from

the

electrical outlet before

the

recovery tank

is

emptied,

the

solution tank

is

refilled

or the

cleaner

is

serviced

in any

way.

6.

DO NOT

store this cleaner

in an

area which

may

reach freezing temperatures. Should this occur.

DO NOT

operate this cleaner until

it has

been

at

room temperature

for at

least

(2)

hours.

7.

DO NOT use any

cleaning solution

or

chemicals other than those discussed

in

this manual.

8.

DO NOT

pick

up

combustible materials such

as

gasoline,

solvents,

hot

coals,

or

live sparks.

9.

NEVER

allow children

to

operate

cleaner,

nor

should they play with cleaner

as a

toy.

10.

This cleaner contains a suds-sensitive float system which shuts

off the

suction when

the

water

or

suds picked

up by the

cleaner reaches a certain

level

in the

upper container. When

the

suction

is

shut off,

to

continue your cleaning, turn

off the

cleaner, empty upper

container,

wipe suds from

float

system

and

continue cleaning. When a highly sudsy solution

is

being vacuumed

up, the

float

system will activate

by the

suds level

and not the

water level; therefore,

if the

amount

of

water

in the

container does

not

appear

to be a

large quantity,

do not be

alarmed,

the

float

is

working

properly.

The use of

Formula

#2

(defoamer) will reduce

or

eliminate this

condition.

11.

If

your cleaner

is

accidently turned over

while

you are

cleaning,

the

float

may

activate

and

shut

off

the

suction.

If

this

occurs,

set the

cleaner

upright,

turn

the

power switch "off"

and let

motor

come

to a

complete stop: then turn switch back "on"

to

continue cleaning.

12.

For

maximum

efficiency,

empty container

frequently

and

keep inside

of

hose, wands, nozzle

and

container

clean.

13.

DO NOT

overwet

carpet

or

upholstery.

If

three

or

more cleaning strokes

are

required,

let the

carpet

or

upholstery material

dry and

then repeat cleaning process.
