THIS PRODUCT IS FOR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY.

ELECTRICAL:

In the USA this machine operates on a standard 15 amp 120V, 60 hz, A.C. power circuit. The amp, hertz, and voltage are listed on the data label found on each machine. Using voltages above or below those indicated on the data label will cause serious damage to the motors.

EXTENSION CORDS:

If an extension cord is used, the wire size must be at least one size larger than the power cord on the machine, and must be limited to 50 feet (15.5m) in length.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

GROUNDED OUTLET

GROUNDED OUTLET BOX

SAFETY

120 VOLT MODELS:

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug in “Fig. A”. A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor in “Fig. C” may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in “Fig. B”, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or wire extending from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

Improper connection of

the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK

1. Release dome clamp.

2. Lift upper recovery tank from machine and

set aside.

3. Use a clean bucket, recovery tank or hose to fill solution tank with hot water. The solution tank holds 4 gallons (15.2 liters) of cleaning solution.

4. Add a non-foaming concentrate for use in hot water extractors at the proportions noted on the container.

NOTE: Periodically operate the extractor with only hot water to remove chemical residue in carpet.

To avoid possible distortion of the polyethylene solution/recovery tanks, DO NOT USE WATER WITH A TEMPERATURE THAT EXCEEDS 140°F (60°C).

5. Place recovery tank back on machine.

6. Place dome on recovery tank. Make sure dome is seated correctly to ensure proper vacuum seal. Clamp dome securely to recovery tank.

Use only the suitable chemicals listed in the Chemical Section. Using incompatible chemicals will damage the machine. Carefully read ingredients on manufacturer’s label before using any product in this machine.

OPERATION

SPECIAL NOTES:

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

The sound pressure level at the operator’s ear was measured to be 73.7 dBA. This was a nearfield, broad-band measurement taken in a typical industrial environment on a tile floor. This appliance contains no possible source of impact noise. The instantaneous sound pressure level is below 63 Pa.

The weighted root mean square acceleration at the operator’s arms was measured to be below 2.5m/s This was a tri-axial, third-octave-band measurement made during normal operation on a composite tile

floor. The measurement and related calculations were made in accordance with ISO 5349-1.

OPERATION

OPERATING THE MACHINE

1. Vacuum the carpet and make sure it is cleared of surface debris before cleaning.

2. Plug power cord into a grounded wall outlet.

NOTE: Defeating the grounding pin on the power cord can result in a severe electrical sho ck.

3. Turn on the machine by pressing the switch in the normal operation mode.

NOTE: The vacuum and the brush are protected by circuit breakers located on the control panel, to the right of the switch.

NOTE: If either motor does not respond to being switched on, reset the circuit breakers by pressing them in, and attempt to switch the machine on again.

NOTE: If solution does not dispense in an even pattern across the width of the machine, the spray jet may be clogged. Tilt the machine back, check for debris and clean surface of jet.

NOTE: Do not use pins, wire, etc. to clean spray jet nozzle as this will deform the jet and destroy the spray pattern.

4. While operating machine, check for excessive foam buildup in the recovery tank. If excessive foam is present, add a defoamer solution to recovery tank, or empty tank.

5. Empty recovery tank when approximately 3/4 full. If the recovery tank is overfilled, the water will drain back onto the carpet when the vacuum is switched off.

6. Ventilate area after carpet has been cleaned.

Keep children and pets away and do not walk on carpet until it is dry.

A Windblower™ fan can be used to reduce drying time.

OPERATING MACHINE WITH ACCESSORY TOOLS

This extractor is easily adapted for use with Windsor accessory tools: Contact Customer Service for details.

1. Disconnect vacuum hose at dome, insert hose cuff into the dome, ensuring that there is a tight fit. Dome must be clamped to recovery tank.

2. Attach the solution hose from accessory tool to the brass solution fitting on the back of machine.

3. Turn on the switch in the accessory position. The application of cleaning solution is now controlled by the lever on the accessory tool.

NOTE: The solution pump is not intended to run dry. When using the extractor for vacuum pick-up only. Do not press the solution spray button.

CAUTION: This appliance is not suitable for picking

up hazardous dust.

PROTECT FROM FREEZING

If it becomes necessary to store in temperatures that could drop below 40°F, the pumping system, hoses and valves must be protected from freezing with a methyl hydrate window washer antifreeze solution.

NOTE: Do not use ethylene glycol or cooling system antifreezes.

1. Add one gallon of window washer antifreeze to the supply tank.

2. Turn on pump switch and spray until the anti-freeze solution fills the solution lines.

3. Drain the leftover antifreeze from the supply tank. Always allow the unit to reach room temperature before filling with hot water or operating.

4. Before operation be sure to flush system

completely. Failure to do so after winterizing machine will damage carpet.

DAILY/REGULAR MAINTENANCE

Before making any

adjustments or repairs to the machine, disconnect the power cord from the electrical source.

1. Empty unused cleaning solution from the solution tank.

2. Inspect and clean filter at solution tank fill port

and at the vacuum intake port in the dome.

3. Flush pumping system with 1 to 2 gallons of clean, hot water.

4. Check spray jet for full spray pattern.

5. Empty the recovery tank and rinse with clean

water.

6. Check for and remove any lint or debris around

brush and vac shoe.

7. Clean float screen and check float valve to make

sure it moves freely.

MAINTENANCE

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

1. After every 25 hours of operation, flush a white vinegar solution (ONE quart vinegar to two gallons of water) or anti-browning solution (mixed as directed) through the extractor. This will prevent build-up of alkaline residue in the system.

2. If the spray jet becomes clogged, check for debris and clean surface of jet.

NOTE: Do not use pins, wire, etc. to clean spray jet nozzle as this will deform the jet and destroy the spray pattern.

3. Periodically inspect all hoses, electrical cables, filters, gaskets and connections on your machine. Frayed or cracked hoses should be repaired or replaced to eliminate vacuum or solution pressure loss.

4. The electrical cable must be well insulated, if the

cable insulation is broken or frayed, repair or replace it immediately. Don't take chances with electrical fire or shock.

5. The filter in the bottom of the solution tank and at the fill port must be clean to allow free flow of cleaning solution. The screen filter on the vacuum intake in the dome must be free of lint buildup to ensure full vacuum strength.

6. The dome gasket must be properly seated and

free of damage to create the air seal needed to extract water.
