INSPECTION:

Carefully unpack and inspect your SOLUS-500 for shipping damage. Each machine is tested and inspected before shipping.

Any shipping damage incurred is the responsibility of the carrier. You should notify the carrier immediately if you notice dam-

age to the box or to the machine or parts.

CLEANING SOLUTIONS:

We recommend liquid cleaning chemicals. Powder chemicals may be used, but unless mixed very thoroughly they could

cause a build-up in the pump, lines, heat exchanger and/or quick disconnects. Any problem caused by a chemical build-up is

not covered by warranty. Use a neutral cleaner with a pH between 5 and 10 to avoid premature wear of the pump, seals, and/

or other components. Damage caused by the use of strong chemicals is not covered by the warranty.

MAINTENANCE:

For optimum performance ﬂush the machine with clear water at the end of each working day. Once a month, minimum, run

a ﬂushing compound through the machine to break up any mineral or chemical build-up that may have formed. The vacuum

motor, pump motor, and the pump do not require any scheduled maintenance; however, the motors may require replacement

brushes after 1000 - 1500 hours, and the pump and bypass valve may require rebuild kits after 1000 - 1500 hours, typically

(refer to machine part list for numbers). Clean the body with an all-purpose detergent, and protect it with an automobile inte-

rior polish. Lubricate the wheels, castors, and quick disconnects with an all purpose silicone spray.

PARTS AND SERVICE:

Repairs, when required, should be performed by your authorized distributor who maintains an inventory of original replace-

ment parts and accessories. Call the distributor from whom you purchased this machine if you need parts and service. Be

sure to specify the machine model. Have your serial number handy.

MODIFICATIONS

Modiﬁcations and additions to the cleaning machine which affect capacity and safe operation shall not be performed by the

customer or user without prior written approval from the manufacturer. Unapproved modiﬁcations will void the machine warranty

and make the customer liable for any resulting accidents.

KNOW YOUR MACHINE

VACUUM LID - This lid provides access into your recovery tank so that you can clean the tank. The lid must be closed

before you try to clean.

SOLUTION TANK FILL HOLE - This is where you ﬁll the tank with water and cleaning solution.

VACUUM HOSE BARB - This is where you connect your vacuum hose to the machine. A tight connection is necessary

to prevent a vacuum leak which would reduce the amount of suction.

DRAIN HOSE - This is how you empty the dirty water from your recovery tank. Place the hose over a drain, and open

the cap. When cleaning out the tank at the end of a job, simply place this hose into a drain and use clean water to

rinse out the dirt and debris from the tank. NOTE: be sure to close the cap tightly before using the machine again.

HANDLES - The handles are used to move the machine. These handles allow you to tilt the machine back onto its

12” wheels for easy maneuvering, and/or for moving on stairways.

SWITCH PLATE - The switches are located on the rear of the machine, out of the way of water.

FAN - Removes warm air from the component compartment.

PSI GAUGE - indicates the pump pressure. Look at the pressure while you spray.

LATCH - The latch holds together the tank and the base compartment.

SOLUTION HOSE QUICK COUPLING- This is where you connect the solution line that runs from the machine to the

carpet wand or hand tool.

POWER CORD RECEPTACLES - The receptacles are where the two power cords connect to the machine.

CASTOR - Swivel castor provides easy maneuverability.

WHEEL - The rear wheels are 12 inches in diameter to provide superior ease of transportation and stair climbing.

6- FORM NO. 56041867 - SOLUS 500 B

SWITCH PLATE

HEAT CONTROL (1):

This dial controls the water temperature. Turn it clockwise

to increase water temperature and counterclockwise to

decrease temperature. The heater will operate only if the

circuit locator light (#5) or the bypass switch (#6) is on.

HEAT MODE LIGHT (2):

This light will only illuminate when the heater is heating and

will turn off when it reaches operating temperature. During

normal operation, the “MODE” light will be on most of the

time.

PUMP CONTROL (3):

This dial controls motor speed and pump pressure. Adjust

the dial clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise

to decrease pressure or turn off pump. The pump runs off of

cord #1. The pump spraying pressure will be observable at

the pressure gauge.

VACUUM SWITCH (4):

This switch will illuminate when the vacuum motors are on.

The vacuum motors run off of cord #1.

CIRCUIT LOCATOR (5):

When this light is on, it indicates that cord #2 (Identiﬁed by

the red “H” on the back of the extractor.) is on a separate

line from cord #1. Cord #2 supplies voltage to the heater

allowing it to heat to the temperature range indicated by the

Heat Control dial (#1) on the switch plate.

BYPASS SWITCH (6):

The bypass switch will illuminate when it is activated and

will completely bypass the circuit locator system. Use this

system only when the circuit locator light will not turn on and

you know each cord is on a separate circuit.

CAUTION: THE CIRCUIT BREAKER CAN TRIP IF BOTH CORDS

ARE ON THE SAME CIRCUIT AND THE BYPASS (heat) SWITCH IS

TURNED ON.

NEVER LET YOUR MACHINE OR YOUR WAND FREEZE

SOLUS-500

FORM NO. 56041867 - SOLUS 500 B - 7

SET-UP AND OPERATION:

1. Fill the holding tank with clear water and pre-spray with the detergent of your choice (we recommend a CRI approved chemical). Mix

well. Although this machine is designed to supply instant hot water, the addition of warm water to the holding tank would increase heater

efﬁciency.

Never use water above 130º F/54º C in the solution tank.

2. Turn off all the switches. Plug in cord #1. (This cord runs the pump and vacuum).

3. Attach the priming hose to the machine and place the open end into the tank.

4. Turn on the pump (turn pump pressure dial all the way clockwise) and let it run until the pump is fully primed (approximately 30

seconds to 1 minute). Once the pump is primed, turn off the pump and disconnect the priming hose. Attach the cleaning hose and tool.

IF YOU WANT HEATED SOLUTION:

5. Plug in the heater cord (identiﬁed by “H” on the back of the machine). NOTE: If the green circuit indicator light does not

illuminate when the heater cord is plugged in, then both cords are on the same circuit. Try other outlets until the light comes on.

See Bypass Switch section (below) if you are unable to get a green light.

6. Turn the heat knob clockwise to the desired temperature.

7. Turn on the pump and spray through your tool a few times to ﬁll the lines with solution. Begin cleaning.

8. Reﬁll and empty the tanks as necessary.

9. When ﬁnished with the job, vacuum all unused solution into the recovery tank, and dump the tank. Clean the tanks and ﬁlters. Clean

the tool and hoses. Store the machine in a heated location.

ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LOCATOR:

This unique, patented “smart system,” operated by a solid state circuit, will inform the operator when the two cords are plugged into

separate lines by illuminating the green, indicator light. This helps prevent tripping circuit breakers.

BYPASS SWITCH:

The bypass switch (#6) completely bypasses the circuit locator system. Use this feature when you cannot get the green Locator

light (#5) to come on and you believe that the two cords are on separate circuits.

CAUTION: If the bypass switch is on when the two cords are plugged into the same circuit, the breaker in the

wall panel may trip.

AUTO VACUUM SHUTOFF:

When the recovery tank is full, the ﬂoat system will shut off the vacuum motor to prevent the machine from overﬂowing. The ﬂoat

may not work in foam. Always use a defoamer to prevent overﬂow. Once the vacuum motor shuts off, the vac switch (#7) must be

turned off, the recovery tank emptied, and then the vacuum switch turned back on (up position) to get the vacuum motor started

again.

CAUTION: Always make sure the ﬂoat is clean and travels freely before turning on the machine. A ﬂoat that is

stuck will cause the vacuum motor to suck in water, resulting in vac motor damage.

PUMP PRESSURE:

Make sure the cleaning tool is spraying when adjusting the pressure, otherwise the pressure reading will be inaccurate.
