Rotate recovery tank latches (E) outward

opposite.
Automatic "shut off"
When the recovery tank (lower tank) is full the automatic shutoff
mechanism will shut off the carpet cleaner suction (suction will be
noticeably reduced).
At that time the yellow float disk will rise to the top of the recovery
tank lid. The cleaner will no longer pick up liquid and he motor sound
will become noticeably higher in pitch. When this happens, turn off
and unplug machine. Then empty dirty solution tank before continu-
ing use.

sure that the lid is secure on all sides before
placing tank on cleaner.
For full suction, it is important that the
recovery tank lid is properly secured before
cleaning.
