3. While extracting, create an overlapping pattern for best
results. Overlap each pass by about half the width of the
previous pass.
4. To turn the Rover HVE in another direction, gently move
the joystick in the direction needed. Do not do "wheelies"
or jerk the unit sideways; this may cause delamination
damage to carpet.
5. The Rover HVE will drive straight ahead, straight backward
and turn in a full circle. Ideally, extract with the grain of the
carpet. If the Rover HVE begins to track (i.e. stops moving
in the direction the joystick is moved) it needs to be re-
calibrated. To do this, push the joystick forward and press
the calibration button on the product label side of the con-
trol box at the same time (the calibration button is shown in
the drawing on page 1; look for mark indicating button loca-
tion in center of "H" on the product label).
6. Run the unit on Low speed if carpet and pad are extremely
wet, then on High speed as the carpet and pad become
less wet.
7. From time to time, check the clear take-up tube leading to
the hose connection. (Shown, below) When the tube indi-
cates that only a small amount of water is being removed,
stop extracting to minimize any carpet delamination.
Check clear take-up tube during extraction.

Transporting and Storing
1. To prepare the Rover HVE for transporting, loading into a
van or for storage, first lay it on a flat surface (with small
front loading wheels facing up). While supporting the han-
dle with one hand, pull out the pins on each side with the
other hand. Next fold the handle all the way down to the
horizontal position, then replace the pins to lock the handle
down. Pick up unit by handlebars and place unit upright
onto the small front-loading wheels. Wrap the power cord
around your arm then place in the cord compartment lo-
cated under the unit. Use the small front loading wheels for
ease of transporting while using the molded-in handle to
assist in loading or carrying the unit.
2. When transporting in a van, secure the Rover HVE against
the wall (Shown, below) and strap it into place.
NOTICE! Store securely in an upright position to avoid any
damaging impact to the motor, gears, and other internal
parts.
Store securely in upright position.
