Maintenance


Emptying the Dirty Water Tank
Press the colored tank handle to release. Tilt and pull to remove. Use the Rubber Tab for quick emptying or unscrew the bottom ring for a full rinse. Ensure the Float Stack is aligned correctly when reassembling.
Cleaning Brush Roll & Nozzle
Turn off and unplug the machine. Remove the Nozzle by scooping and gripping the Accessory Hose Door. Remove the Brush Roll cover by pressing the two release buttons. Use the provided comb to remove hair and debris. Rinse parts under running water.
Replacing Belts & Brush Rolls
Requires Phillips-head and flathead screwdrivers. Remove tanks, nozzle, and brush roll cover. Use a flathead screwdriver to remove the Belt Access Door. Remove the wheel screw, slide the wheel down, and remove the belt. Replace belts and brush rolls as needed, ensuring washers are in place and bristles are aligned in a 'V' pattern.
Troubleshooting
If you experience reduced spray, check if the tank is empty or not seated properly. For loss of suction, ensure the Dirty Water Tank is seated, the Rubber Tab is sealed, and the Accessory Hose Door is locked. If the machine has no power, ensure the correct button is pressed and the outlet is active.
