  If the solution pump on your Viper Floor Machine isn't working, first check that the vacuum/pump switch is turned on. If it is on, the pump may have overheated; allow 30 minutes for it to cool down after determining the cause. If the issue persists, there may be a faulty vacuum/pump switch, solenoid, or solution pump, or loose/broken wiring, in which case you should contact a Viper Distributor.

  If you're getting uneven or no solution spray from your Viper Floor Machine, make sure the solution tank isn't empty or low and that the vacuum/pump switch is turned on. Dirty or plugged spray tips can also cause this issue, so clean or replace them. Additionally, a plugged solution tank filter or a pinched/kinked solution hose can be the cause; clean or replace the filter, and check the hose for obstructions, rerouting or replacing it if needed. For other issues, such as improper or worn spray tips, or a faulty solution pump, contact a Viper Distributor.

  If you're experiencing poor pickup with your Viper Floor Machine, several factors could be at play. First, make sure the recovery lid is tightly secured to prevent air leaks. Check the float shut-off for clogs and clean off any debris. If the float shut-off is activated, drain the recovery tank. Also, ensure the drain hose stopper is securely in place, and all vacuum hose connections and cuffs are tight. Inspect the vacuum hose for defects and replace if necessary. Finally, avoid pulling the machine too fast; slowing down the cleaning operation can improve pickup.

  If the vacuum motor on your Viper Floor Machine isn't working, first ensure that the vacuum/pump switch is turned on. If the switch is on, the vacuum motor thermal overload may have tripped; check for any obstructions and allow 30 minutes for it to cool down. For other issues such as a faulty vacuum/pump switch or motor, worn carbon brushes, or loose/broken wiring, it's best to contact a Viper Distributor.

  Your Viper Vacuum Cleaner might not be working due to several reasons: * It might not be plugged into a power source. If this is the case, plug it into a grounded outlet. * A building circuit breaker might have tripped. Try resetting the circuit breaker. * It could be due to a faulty power cable or extension power cable. If the power cable is faulty, contact a Viper Distributor. If the extension power cable is faulty, replace it with a new one.
