Electrical
In the USA this machine operates on a standard 15
amp 115 volt 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 breakdown, 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.
.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is
not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adapter looks like
adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in
sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug
or the like extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter 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.

être insérée dans une prise appropriée qui est correctement installée et mise à la terre, conformément aux
codes et réglementations locales.
Une connexion incorrecte du conducteur de mise à

prise murale, vérifier , avec un électricien qualifié ou
un technicien d'entretien. Ne pas modifier la fiche
fournie avec l'appareil- Si elle ne correspond pas à
la prise murale, faire installer une prise appropriée
par un électricien qualifié.
Cet appareil doit être utilisé sur un circuit nominal de

Operations
How this machine works
This carpet extractor is an electrical powered, portable
carpet extractor intended for commercial use. The
appliance sprays a cleaning solution onto the carpet
agitates the wet carpet, and then extracts the soiled
solution back into the unit's recovery tank. The
appliance is fitted with and a hand tool for cleaning
upholstery and stairs.
The machine is designed to maintain your carpet using
the Encapsulating Interim Carpet Clean ing Process. By
using the Interim Carpet Maintainer in conjunction with
Windsor Red Carpet Encapsulating Interim Cleaning
(W450-4) or Encapsulating Interim Cleaning with
Carpet Protection (W455-4) chemical solution, you can
perform a regular light cleaning and grooming of your
carpet very quickly, and have the carpet dry and ready
for traffic within 30 minutes.
The machine is also designed to restore your carpet
using carpet extraction chemicals. The machine is
designed to apply cleaning solution onto carpeted floor ,
scrub the carpet with two counter-rotating brushes, and
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 mixed
solution and deliver solution to the appr o pri at e spr a y
jet. The solution system consists of the solution tank,
strainer, extraction pump and interim pump, solenoid
valve, spray jets, accessory hand tool, and controls.
The solution tank stores solution until it is delivered
through the strainer to the appropriate pump. The
solenoid valve allows flow from the extraction pump to
the extraction nozzle or stops flow at the extraction
nozzle so that the accessory hand tool can be used.
The interim pump provides flow directly to the interim
nozzle. The strainer protects the pump from debris.
The solution pumps control the cleaning solution flow.
The function of the scrub system is to scrub the carpet,
mix the cleaning solution with the soil and lift and groom
the carpet pile. The scrub system consists of two cylindrical brushes, motor , and cont rols. The brushes scr ub
the carpet as the motor drives the brushes. The
counter-rotating action of the brushes grooms the
carpet pile.
The function of the recovery system is to vacuum the
soiled water back into the recovery tank. The recovery
system consists of the vacuum shoe, vacuum motor,
float ball filter, r ecovery t ank a nd controls. Th e vacuum
shoe extracts the dirty solution from the carpet as the
machine moves forward. The vacuum motor provides
suction to draw the dirty solution off the floor 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 allow
the operator to select the desired function to perform.
This appliance is not suitable for picking up hazardous
dust.

Vacuum Motor Carbon Brushes
The green ground wire must be attached for safe
operation. See wiring diagram.
Le fil de mise à la terre vert doit être fixé pour
assurer un fonctionnement sécuritaire. Voir le
schéma de câblage.
Important:
These brushes wear quicker as the length shortens due
to increased heat. Spring inside brush housing will
damage motor if brushes are allowed to wear away
completely.
Periodically check the length of the carbon brushes.
Replace both carbon brushes when either is less than
3/8" (9.5mm) long.
If armature commutator is grooved, extremely pitted or
not concentric, the motor will need to be replaced or
sent to a qualified service center.
