six and seven amp motors.

Top of the line models include a tool kit which allows
the unit to be used for stair or upholstery cleaning.

Suction is directed to the floor through the clear
nozzle and up into the recovery tank where the air
and water are separated.
A float prevents the
recovery tank from being overfitled.
The turbine (air) pump operates on the suction from
the motor. Suction is directed to the pump through
the pump duct, and is completed when the door on
the hood is opened.

This instruction deals with the top of the line models.
Instructions that pertain only to low end models will be
noted,
