OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Hard surface Cleaning or Carpet Cleaning
1. Insert electrical cords into 3 pin grounded outlets.
2. We recommend the use of a liquid defoamer, to prevent the machine from
prematurely shutting off due to excess foam in the recovery tank. Turn on
vacuum switch and pour approximately ¼ cup of Esteam Liquid Defoamer into
the end of the vacuum hose.
3. The E1200 is equipped with auto fill and drain, simply attach the supplied hoses
to a water supply and the pump out hose to a sanitary drain. You may also
manually fill and drain the machine, especially for a small amount of cleaning.
4. Turn the pump out switch on, the pump will start sensing electronically for
present water and then turn off. The pump will sense every 2 minutes thereafter
for water to pump out.
5. The float in the fresh water tank will automatically allow water in to a preset level
and maintain that level thereafter.
6. The E1200 pump is adjustable from 400-1000 PSI. To adjust pressure turn the
regulator (located on lower front of machine) clockwise to increase pressure and
counter clockwise to decrease pressure.
7. Attach the prime hose to the quick connect on the E1200, inserting the other end
into the vacuum barb cupping off the remainder with your hand. Turn on the
pump switch and run for about 15 seconds. This will prime any air out off the
pump and fitting.
8. Connect vacuum and solution hoses to the machine and then to the hard surface
tool to be used.
9. Turn on switches and proceed to clean.
10. When not using the Auto Fill or Drain features, when the recovery tank becomes
full the vacuum motors will stop extracting. The vacuum motors make a
distinctive high pitched noise as all the air flow will be cut off. At this time turn off
all switches, then the recovery tank may be drained by pulling up the drain valve
handle on the front of the machine and emptying the contents into a pail for
disposal.
NOTE: Ensure that the high water level float screen inside the recovery tank is free
from any obstructions. Be sure to close drain valve before resuming cleaning.
