CARPET INSPECTION:
Determine precisely what areas you are going to
clean. Note problem areas in the carpet or tack
strip. Look for loose carpet, heavily damaged areas,
discolored stains, or grease spots that will require
prespotting. Note the carpet type. Check the
availability of hot water, drains, and suitable
electrical outlets. If the carpet is loose or worn, have
it repaired before attempting to clean it.
Plan the cleaning route, work from the most remote
area towards the exit. Try not to travel over the
cleaned areas when getting fresh water or dumping
old. Furniture should be moved out away from the
walls before cleaning. If furniture is moved back in
place before carpet is completely dry, place plastic
or foil protectors under the legs to prevent possible
carpet staining. When possible use a Windblower
(WB3) and open all windows and doors to speed
carpet drying.
ACCESSORIES:
The D-250 can be used with the following Windsor
equipment: Deluxe Hand Tool (DHT), Pile
Jogger(PJ2A), Standard Floor Wands(SFW, SW,
SW-PRO, PROW), & Wind Blower carpet
dryer(WB3). Contact an authorized Windsor dealer
for assistance in choosing the right equipment .
GENERAL INFORMATION:
On heavily soiled carpets, or on areas of high
foot traffic, it may be necessary to use a prespray
or traffic lane cleaner applied with a Pro-Spray. Do
not add presprays to the machine's solution tank. If
a spotter is used, follow the manufacturer's
instructions exactly as printed on the label. Remove
the spotter with the floor tool when done, spotter left
in the carpet may bleach or brown it permanently.
As the carpet is being cleaned, check to see if
there is foam building up in the recovery bucket.
Add a little defoaming compound to the recovery
tank but never to the solution tank.
For infrequent use or long periods of
storage, flush the system with a neutralizing
solution of 1 quart white vinegar mixed with 2
gallons hot water. Flush the system with clean
hot water after neutralizing.
For hose fitting lubrication, use a light
silicone lubricant which will not damage o-rings.
PROTECT THIS MACHINE FROM
FREEZING.
EQUIPMENT SET-UP:
1.) Plug power cable from machine into
properly grounded wall outlet.
2.) Turn vacuum motor switch on and off to make
sure there is electrical power at machine.
3.) Connect vac hose to machine. Slide the swivel
cuff over the outlet on the tank.
4.) Connect the hose set to the machine and
wand. Pull back the knurled collar on the quick
disconnect coupler and push onto the
connection on the chassis. To avoid leaks,
check to be sure a positive connection was
made.
5.) Pour clean, hot water into the solution tank.
To avoid possible tank distortion, water
temperature must not exceed 140 F (60C).
6.) Add a non-foaming cleaning solution
concentrate, for use in hot water extractors at
the proportions noted on the container (See list
below), into solution tank. NOTE: When using
powder cleaner, pre-mix with hot water in a
clean container before adding to the
solution tank.
7.) Turn pump and vacuum switch(s) to the on
position. NOTE: Pump may have to be
primed for solution flow. (See Priming the
Pump)
8.) Start cleaning.
PRIMING THE PUMP
1. Connect priming hose to solution output on
machine.
2. Run open end of priming hose to vacuum intake.
3. Turn pump and both vacuums on and seal off
hose going into vacuum in take.
4. Do this for 30 seconds or until pump is putting
out a steady flow of water.
