Any damageincurred during shipping is the responsibility of the carrier. You should notify the carrier immediately if you notice damage to the box or to themachine or parts.MAINTENANCE:Prior to each job, inspect the recovery tank pre-filters, the stainless steel in-line filters, the float, and the drain hose to make sure everything isclean and able to function properly. After each job, remove and clean both the nylon mesh pre-strainer at the vacuum inlet and the stainless steelfilters in the bottom of the recovery tank. Unscrew the clear caps off the in-line filters (located under the recovery tank) and clean the screensoften. Pump damage may occur if the filters become clogged. Check hose clamps regularly to make sure they are tight. The pump dischargeswater at high pressure. If a hose clamp becomes loose, the hose could also come loose, or fall off of the hose barb, and leak water into the basecompartment.Lubricate the wheels, castors, latches, and quick disconnects with an all purpose silicone spray. The vacuums and the pumps do not requireany scheduled maintenance; however the vacuum motors may require new brushes after 1000 - 1500 hours.
