Inspect the electrical cord for damage. Look for fraying, cuts, etc. Replace the cord if you
find any damage. Use replacement part no. 30-099.
Inspect hoses, water lines and seals. Replace as needed.
Inspect vacuum shoes and gasket. Scratches, gouges and snags can be removed with a
flat file. Replace shoe and gasket when grooves in shoe are no longer visible.
Flush out tank and rinse basket clean. Disconnect solution feed tubes and remove bottles.
Attach a vacuum hose to the accessory port, place the other end in a bucket of clean water
and extract until pumpout hose discharge runs clear. Be sure to orient basket with hole facing
the pipe opening when replacing.
Inspect and clean in-tank filters. Remove from tank and rinse clean. Wipe out tank interior
with damp cloth and reinstall filters. Be sure to orient bottom tank filter horizontally and ensure
that it is firmly in place.
Rinse off extraction head and accessory tools with clear water.
Lift off solution inlet cover and rinse clean. Remove any debris from stem and cover and
wipe clean. After cleaning, reinsert carefully, ensuring stem is properly seated and the cover is
pressed down tightly.
Flush out solution lines. Remove solution feed tubes from bottles and place ends in a cup of
plain warm water. Switch unit on and operate solution control lever and prespray wand until
lines are flushed.
Wipe off feet and rotary head with a damp cloth.
Inspect tank cover seal for tears or rips. Replace if needed.
To maintain appearance, wipe interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. For deep
cleaning and a lasting, protective shine, use an automotive interior cleaner.
Check gearcase oil levels. Remove vented gear case plug. While looking into vent plug
hole, tilt unit back to allow the rotary head to be turned. Turn the head until the vent plug hole
is visibly aligned with the hole in the gear web. Now place the unit flat of the floor or table and
insert a screwdriver or similar tool to gauge the oil level. If the oil level is less than 1/8 inch,
add Sapphire Scientific gear oil (part number 13-053). Do not overfill. Reinstall vent plug when
finished.
WARNING: If a high-pitch vacuum motor sound is heard, TURN UNIT OFF IMMEDIATELY.
Use manual pumpout feature to empty the tank, remove the cover and inspect all three filters.
Clean as necessary.
If poor pumpout performance is observed (i.e., waste tank fills quickly) or if the vacuum mo-
tor shut-off is triggered frequently (signaled by a high-pitch vacuum mo-tor sound), inspect
pumpout impeller and in tank filter. Rinse filter to clear out debris accumulation. If impeller is
pitted, cracked or bent, replace impeller and gasket. See Service Manual.
If excessive consumption of Step 2/3 chemical observed, disassemble and clean inline
filters, valves and orifices. See Service Manual.
NOTE: More frequent cleaning and/or replacement may be required in hard water areas.
See Service Manual.
If blower makes excessive noise, bearings or brushes may be worn out. See Service Man-
ual.
Clean pump check valve and basin. See Service Manual.
Inspect vacuum blower motor brushes. Replace if needed. See Service Manual.
