OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CARPET AND UPHOLSTERY MODE
PUTTING INTO SERVICE
Ensure all switches are in the off position.
Pour clean water into the solution tank using a bucket with pouring lip. Do not overfill the solution tank.
Connect the vacuum hose from the cleaning tool to the vacuum hose inlet on the recovery tank.
Connect the solution hose quick connector from the cleaning tool to the quick connector on the back of the
machine. (Pull back outer sleeve on female connector and push fit onto male connector so that the outer sleeve
snaps shut).
Make sure the drain hose cap is pushed fully home.
Add defoamer solution (as per label instructions) to the waste tank.
Place selected chemical bottle into bottle holder Take the feed tube attached to the cap and place it inside the
bottle.
Take the cap of the feed tube and attach it onto the bottle of chemical to secure it in place.
Turn the chemical dispensing valve to the left toward the word "SOAP".
Ensure correct metering tip is fitted to enable the correct dilution ratio. Please check chemical bottle
label for correct dilution ratio and cross reference with chemical dosage tip selection chart (Page 17)
When moving the machine from place to place use the handle and wheel using the 2 rear wheels and front castor
wheels.
Only place the carpet wand or hand tool onto the area to be cleaned when in use.
The machine must be used in an upright condition on a flat and level surface
WARNING: FOR ALL UNITS FITTED WITH A HEATER UNIT DO NOT TURN ON HEATER UNTIL PUMP IS
PRIMED AND WATER IS RUNNING THROUGH CARPET WAND.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - CARPET WAND
Important: Use only Prochem wands and hand tools with the CR2 machine. They are designed to deliver
and maintain the correct amount of solution and pressure when attached to the CR2 pump system. Use
of other manufacturer's wands may cause over-wetting of carpet, damage to the pump system and lack
of pressure.
Plug the machine into a suitable electrical outlet.
Turn on the vacuum and pump switches. Slowly pull the wand head towards you with the solution valve trigger
engaged. Then make a pass forward and backward with the vacuum only (no spray) over the cleaned area to
remove as much soil and solution as possible. Do not over-wet carpet! Make overlapping passes to prevent
streaking.
On heavily soiled carpets, we strongly recommend using a pre-spray solution. If the carpet is heavily soiled,
squeeze solution valve lever on the forward pass as well as backwards, allowing cleaning solution a few seconds
longer to work prior to vacuuming.
When you run out of solution, turn off the pump. Detach waste water drain hose, remove cap and empty into a
bucket. Dirty solution will pour out until the tank is empty. Replace drain hose cap and reattach hose to stowage
point. Use a clean bucket when you refill the solution tank.
When the job is completed, turn the switches off and disconnect the vacuum and solution hoses from the carpet
tool and the machine. Drain the recovery tank through the drain hose as above.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR 500 PSI MOTOR PUMP FITTED TO CR2 MACHINES.
In order to gain maximum life for this pump, users are advised to discharge the pressure in the solution
system before starting or re-starting (after switching off) the pump. This can be done by opening the wand
or hand tool trigger valve and discharging pressurised solution into a bucket
