How the Turbo Hybrid works
High-pressure solution from your portable or truckmount drives a spinning spray bar inside a shrouded head. The jets blast the grout lines and tile face, and the machine's vacuum pulls the dirty water straight back out through the deck. The automatic vacuum compensator regulates airflow so the head glides rather than sucking down onto the floor. The seal between the ring and the floor is what holds it all together — which is why ring condition matters more than any other part.

Safety

- After releasing the trigger, allow about two minutes for the spray bar to stop before lifting or turning the tool over.
- At full heat and pressure the deck and fittings are hot. Handle them with care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Brush ring or Teflon ring — which should I use?
Brush ring for textured tile, anti-slip surfaces and deep grout lines. Teflon hard boot ring for smooth, flat floors such as polished concrete, honed stone and large-format tile. Both are supplied.
Does it need a truckmount?
No. It runs from 650 psi, so a capable high-pressure portable will drive it. Higher pressure and heat increase production on heavily soiled floors.
Can I clean concrete driveways with it?
Yes, with the 12 inch concrete adapter, which lets the head ride over uneven surfaces.
The tool has stopped drying the floor. What should I check?
In order: the ring, the vacuum hose, the shells for cracks, then the machine's vacuum. Most recovery complaints are a worn ring.
