When the tank becomes full the cleaner will make a high pitched noise and the float shut-off will activate, causing the cleaner to lose suction. Switch off the unit and unplug from socket.

Ensure that the filter is pushed to the top of the float cage and that the filter pleats are not squashed. Check and clean any blockages within the unit. Replace motor housing and clip onto bin, plug in and continue as before. FLOAT SHUT-OFF The cleaner is protected by an automatic shut-off float valve when the recovery tank becomes full of liquid. This will become apparent to you as the motor will start to make a higher pitched noise. Lift the hose up to drain any liquid back into the container. Try to keep the hose raised whilst emptying out the liquid, this will help eliminate any spills. EMPTYING THE TANK WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN EMPTYING THE TANK, IT MAY BE HEAVIER THAN YOU THINK. Should the cleaner overturn during use, switch the unit off immediately, return to the upright position. If collecting soapy water you will need to regularly check whether the unit requires emptying as the lather can bypass the float system and there can be a discharge of foam. Should this occur: IMPORTANT INFORMATION The float valve is a safety device, do not attempt to remove this or modify it, it is there for your safety. 5 WD0370 0908:Layout 2 2/3/09 13:35 Page 6 1.
