ADMIRAL 86038270 05/22/07 15
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Twice a month, flush a white vinegar solution (One
quart vinegar to two gallons of water) or anti-browning
solution (mixed as directed) through the extractor. This
will prevent build-up of alkaline residue in the system. If
spray jets become clogged, remove the spray tips,
wash them thoroughly, and blow-dry.
NOTE: Do not use pins, wire, etc. to clean nozzles as
this could destroy spray pattern.
Periodically inspect all hoses, electrical cables and
connections on your machine. Frayed or cracked
hoses should be repaired or replaced to eliminate
vacuum or solution pressure loss. If the cable
insulation is broken or frayed, repair or replace it
immediately. Don’t take chances with electrical fire or
shock.

machine, disconnect the power cord from electrical
source.
