The Razorback SPOTX Heated is a compact 3 gallon (11.4 litre) spot extractor with a 1,000 W in-line heater, for spot cleaning carpet, rugs and upholstery where heat helps break down the soiling. It is supplied ready to work with high-pressure solution and vacuum hoses and a 3.5 inch clear-head upholstery tool.
The motor, heater and pump each have their own switch, so you can run the machine cold with the heater off when the job or the fabric does not call for heat.
Key features
- 55 psi solution pump delivers cleaning solution into the fibre.
- 1,000 W in-line heat exchanger heats the solution on its way to the tool. The steel heater chassis sits in its own moulded tank and frame.
- Separate Motor, Heater and Pump switches.
- 2-stage Ametek vacuum motor, 804 W and 100 CFM, with 76 inches of water lift, recovers spent solution and soil for faster drying.
- 3 gallon (11.4 litre) solution tank and 3 gallon (11.4 litre) recovery tank.
- The recovery tank lifts away from the machine for clean, easy disposal.
- Roto-moulded polyethylene body resists dents, chips and cracks.
- Moulded carry handle, slide-out handle and double ball-bearing urethane wheels for moving it between the van and the job.
- 7.3 m power cord.
What comes with it
- 4.8 m vacuum hose
- 4.8 m high-pressure solution hose
- 3.5 inch clear-head upholstery hand tool
Before first use
The SPOTX leaves the factory with RV and marine antifreeze in the pump and lines to protect them in transit. Before the first job, fill the solution tank and run about 4 litres of clean water through the pump, hose and tool to flush it out.

Frequently asked questions
Does it need a special power outlet?
No. It runs from a standard 230 V, 10 amp power point, with the heater, motor and pump all on the one cord.
Can I use it without heat?
Yes. The heater has its own switch. Leave it off and the machine runs as a cold-water spotter.
How is it different from the unheated SPOTX?
It adds the 1,000 W in-line heater, and it comes with longer 4.8 m hoses and a high-pressure solution hose. The unheated SPOTX is lighter at 9.95 kg and comes with 2.5 m hoses.
Why is there antifreeze in a new machine?
It is shipped with RV and marine antifreeze in the system to protect the pump. Flush about 4 litres of clean water through before first use.
How do I empty it?
Lift the recovery tank away from the machine and pour it out. There is no hose to drain through.
