OPERATING INSTRUCTION
Setting Up
1.
If there is standing water over ½" deep, remove it first
with a submersible pump or carpet wand. NOTICE! Do
not operate the Rover HVE in standing water over ½"
deep to keep from permanently damaging the motor.
2.
Before using the Rover HVE, remove the "easy water"
(water that can be easily removed from the surface) with
a standard wand connected to a portable or truckmount
extraction machine.
3.
Stand the Rover HVE upright. Remove the cord from its
storage compartment on the bottom of the unit. Next, lay
the unit on a flat surface with front loading wheels facing
up (shown, below).

While supporting the handle with one hand and removing
the tethered locking pins with the other, raise the handle
to the upright position, and replace the pins.
4.
Connect your portable or truckmount extraction machine
hose to the open end of the clear take-up tube on the
Rover HVE. Ensure the hose is securely connected to the
extraction machine before turning the Rover HVE on. Use
a hose with the largest diameter (2") and the shortest
length possible.
5.
CAUTION! Before plugging in the Rover HVE, make sure
the joystick is in center position (neutral). Next, turn it on
using the lower switch found on the right side of the con-
trol box near the joystick. The light indicates whether or
not the Rover HVE is on. Note: Use a super-duty truck-
mount or portable extraction machine to extract the
maximum amount of water.
Getting Started
1. To extract water from carpet, with or without pad or under-
layment, position the Rover HVE on the carpet.
2. NOTICE! Extract on carpeted surfaces only. Not for use on
hard surfaces. Check extraction head for burrs or sharp
edges; if they occur, replace polymer glide head. Do not
operate without glide in place.
3. Keep both feet flat on the center of the footpads
(shown above, right) for best results. Do not lean on the
handlebars or on the joystick. Begin extracting on low
speed (for first pass) to maximize extraction effectiveness.

Stand with feet on center of footpads.
4. Hold both handles for good balance. Use minimal force
when operating the joystick, using one or two fingers. Move
the joystick lever forward to propel the Rover HVE forward,
and release it to make the unit stop. Move the joystick lever
toward you to go backwards. Move the joystick left or right
to turn in the direction desired.
CAUTION! Always look in the direction you are driving.
Take special care when operating near stairways or other
obstacles. Do not run over the power cord, as it could
damage the cord and create an electrical hazard.
Extraction Tips
NOTICE! Extract on carpeted surfaces only to protect the ex-
traction head. Do not let the extraction head contact the sharp
pins of tack strip. Do not run the head over metal strips or
hard-surface floors. Burrs or sharp edges on the polymer glide
can snag yarns and damage carpet fibers.
NOTICE! Guard against carpet delamination: Do not extract
carpet excessively. Stop extracting when the unit is removing
little water. Do not allow the extraction head to buckle, bend, or
crease loose carpet.
NOTICE! Do not allow the unit to strike or rub against base-
board, tack strips or drywall. Near fragile materials, extract with
a carpet wand only.
Tether the hose and cord together with Velcro
the extraction hose and power cord to drag behind you and out
of your way while the unit is moving.
NOTICE! Don't run over hose and cord!
1. For first pass, start unit on low speed to maximize extrac-
tion. Begin just inside the entryway where your extraction
hose enters, and work your way into the room.
2. Follow a clear pattern, so you cover all floor surfaces but
do not repeat any area unnecessarily.
