• Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and

before servicing.

WARNING

• Use motorized tool on carpet moistened by the cleaning process.

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

children.

• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended

center.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord

around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from

heated surfaces.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSPECTION

Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and

thoroughly inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery

carrier who should be notified immediately.

ELECTRICAL - Model C46200-00 (115V)

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp. 115 volt, 60 hz, AC circuit.

Voltages below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.

ELECTRICAL - Model C46200-02, C46200-02CE (230V)

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 16 amp. type L fused 230 volt, 50 hz, AC

circuit. Voltages below 200 volts AC or above 250 volts AC could cause serious damage to the

motor. I.E.C. Class 1.

WARNING

Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do

not operate this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain

dust, etc.

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 plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER - 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.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like

the plug illustrated in sketch A below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet

having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

All service and repair should be performed by qualified vacuum service representative or

electrician. No user serviceable components are employed in the electrical vacuum lid head

assembly. No lubrication of the motor is required.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

1. Solution tank should be emptied after each use. Flush pumping system with 1 gallon of

clean water after use.

2. Check and clean vacuum inlet and solution inlet strainer daily.

3. Removable recovery tank, page 7, item 30, should be rinsed clean daily.

4. Spray jet should be checked for correct spray pattern and cleaned if plugged. Do not clean

out spray tip with pins or wire, this may cause damage to the jet spray pattern and cause

streaking.

5. Protect equipment from freezing. Severe pumping system damage can occur if allowed to

freeze.

6. Inspect vacuum hoses for tight connections. Check electrical cable for abrasion or cuts in

jacket. Cord should be replaced if worn or damaged.

MONTHLY/BI-MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

The Solution Pump System should be purged monthly to remove alkaline residue build-up. To

flush system out, use 1 quart of white vinegar to 1 1/2 gallons of clean hot water, followed by a

clear 1 1/2 gallon rinse. Clean spray jets if required.

CORD STORAGE

While not in use storage can be accomplished by winding cord around top of machine. Cord

hooks are provided.

• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been

dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return to service center.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around

sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated

surfaces.

• Do not unplug by pulling cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.

This equipment should be stored indoors and not exposed to rain.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lift the recovery tank of solution tank by releasing the two latches.

2. Add up to 1 1/2 gallons of hot water (maximum 140°F) to the solution tank. If chemicals are

required, follow dilution ratios as specified on product label. Use only commercially

available cleaning chemicals intended for use on carpet.

3. Place recovery tank back on solution tank and fasten the two latches.

4. Plug power cord into grounded wall outlet.

5. Connect the vac/solution hose assembly to machine.

6. This machine is equipped with a 3-position power switch. Ref. to figure below. The single

bar position is for vacuum only - center position is off. Double bar position is for vacuum

pump and motorized tool (120V and standard 230V). Turn on machine in the single bar

position (CE version 230V only).

7. Always test upholstery for color fastness in a hidden area before beginning cleaning

process.

8. Warning: This unit does not contain any automatic liquid shut-off devices in the vacuum

recovery tank. Do not overfill. Always completely empty recovery tank before refilling

solution tank. If foam or liquid comes out of ventilation openings turn off immediately.
