TO PICK UP WATER
1 If the machine has been used for dry pick-up, remove the Dry Container
System and the Filter Assembly System (if used).
2 Place the Dome Lid (2) on top of the Recovery Tank (3). Make sure that
the Main Power Switch (1) is in the OFF position, then plug the Power
Cord (6) into a properly grounded wall outlet.
3 Attach the Recovery Hose (8) and the Vac Motor Hose (12) to the Dome
Lid (2).
4 Connect the other end of the Recovery Hose (8) to the Squeegee or
Wand. Accessory hoses, wands and other attachments are available
from your local Advance Dealer.
5 Turn the Main Power Switch (1) ON.
6 Release the Squeegee Raise/Lower Pedal (4) to lower the Squeegee
to the floor. The Squeegee will pick up while moving forward or in
reverse. (This step applies to Air Scoop only).
7 Add a defoamer chemical when picking up soapy water. To add
defoamer, first turn the Main Power Switch (1) OFF. Then remove the
Dome Lid (2) and pour the defoamer chemical into the Recovery Tank
(3). See the manufacturer's recommendations for the proper amount.
Put the Dome Lid (2) back on the Recovery Tank (3) and turn the Main
Power Switch (1) ON. Add defoamer each time the tank is emptied.
8 The Recovery Tank (3) has an automatic float shutoff to block the
vacuum system when the tank is full. You can tell when the float closes
by the sudden change in the sound of the vacuum motor. When the float
closes, the tank must be emptied. The machine will not pick up water
with the float closed.
TO PICK UP DUST AND DIRT
1 If the machine has been used for wet pick-up, empty the Recovery Tank
(3), rinse it out and dry it completely and install the Dry Container
System. The Dry Container System comes with installation instructions
when ordered. DO NOT use the machine for dry pick-up without the Dry
Container System in place.
NOTE: The optional Filter Assembly System can also be installed over
the float cage on the Dome Lid (2) for additional exhaust air filtration
during dry pickup. The Filter Assembly System comes with installation
instructions when ordered.
2 Then put the Dome Lid (2) on top of the Recovery Tank (3).
3 Attach the Recovery Hose (8) and the Vac Motor Hose (12) to the Dome
Lid (2).
4 Connect the other end of the hose to a wand fitted with a dry pick-up tool.
Accessory hoses, wands and other attachments are available from
your local Advance Dealer.
5 Plug the Power Cord (6) into a wall outlet and turn the Main Power
Switch (1) ON.
