How This Machine Works
The Chariot® iExtract® 26 is a battery powered, self­propelled Carpet Extractor intended for commercial use. The machine is a dual mode; interim and deep extraction carpet machine. Interim mode applies solution at a low flow rate agitated by the counter­rotating brushes with no solution recovery. Deep extraction applies solution at a high flow rate agitated by counter-rotating brushes and recovere d by th e du al vacuum shoes.
The machine is designed to apply a cleaning solution onto carpeted floor, and scrub the carpet with two counter-rotating brushes, then vacuum the soiled water back into the recovery tank. The machine's primary systems are the solution system, scrub system, recovery system, and operator control system.
The function of the solution system is to store cleaning solution and deliver it to the scrub system. The solution system is gravity fed. The solution system consists of the solution tank, strainer , valve, manifold and controls. The solution tank stores cleaning solution (water and detergent) until it is delivered to the scrub system. The strainer protects the valve from debris. The strainer prevents debris from entering the supply lines, valve, and manifold. The valve automatically prevents solution flow unless the scrub brushes are turned on and the machine is being propelled.
The function of the recovery system is to vacuum the soiled water back into the recovery tank. The recovery system consists of two vacuum shoes, two vacuum motors, float ball filter , and controls. The vacuum shoes extract the dirty solution from the carpet as the machine moves forward. The vacuum motors provide suction to draw the dirty solution off the carpet and into the recovery tank. The float ball filter protects the vacuum fan from debris and foam. The recovery tank stores the dirty solution.
The function of the operator control system is to control the direction and speed of the machine. The directional control system consists of the direction control drive reset switch, throttle pedal, emergency stop/brake switch, steering wheel, propel controller, and drive wheel. The directional control drive reset switch signals forward or reverse direction and make s sure the operator is on platform before machine will propel. The controller interprets signals from the throttle pedal to command the drive wheel to propel or slow the machine. The steering wheel points the drive wheel in the direction desired by the operator . The parking brake automatically engages when the operator steps off the platform. The emergency stop/brake can be use d to hold the machine on slopes.
NOTE: Impact to machine may cause damage.
The function of the scrub system is to scrub the carpet and lift and groom the carpet pile. The scrub system consists of two cylindrical counter-rotating brushes, a motor, l ift actu ator , and c ontrols. The brushes scrub the carpet as the motor drives the brushes. The counter­rotating action of the brushes applies and agitates the solution into the carpet.

Operations
Normal Scrubbing
Plan the scrubbing pattern in advance. The longest track is around the perimeter of the area to be cleaned. For efficient operation, the runs should be the longest possible without turning, stopping, or raising or lowering scrub deck/squeegee.
In order to achieve the best possible results, the area which is to be cleaned should be swept before scrub­bing. Large debris, strings and wire must be remo ved to prevent being caught in brushes or vacuum shoe.
If the machine is allowed to stand in neutral with the scrub deck down, the solutions flow stops and brush motors stop. If either forward or reverse travel is selected, the solution flow will continue in the same setting and the scrub brush motors will continue in their same setting once movement of machine begins. Overlap the brush path and avoid transporting over previously cleaned areas.

Batteries (Wet Cell Only)
The batteries provide the power to operate the machine. The batteries require regular maintenance to keep them operating at peak efficiency.
The machine batteries will hold their charge for long periods of time, but they can only be charged a certain number of times. T o get the greatest life from the batteries, charge them when their charge level reaches 25% of a full charge. Use a hydrometer to check the charge level.
Do not allow the batteries to remain in a discharged condition for any length of time. Never expose a discharged battery to temperatures below freezing. Discharged batteries will freeze causing cracked cases. Do not operate the machine if the batteries are in poor condition or if they have a charge level below 25% (specific gravity below 1.155).
Keep all metallic objects off the top of the batteries, as they may cause a short circuit. Replace worn or damaged cables and terminals.
Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell before and after charging the batteries. Never add acid to the batteries, use distilled water. Do not allow water level to fall below the battery plates. Portions of plates exposed to air will be destroyed. Do not overfill. Keep plugs firmly in place at all times.
Maintenance
Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with batteries.
Portez des lunettes de protection et des vêtements de protection lorsque vous travaillez avec des batteries.
Charge batteries in a well ventilated area.
