Question: I bought a carpet extractor from you a couple of years ago and I am looking to upgrade some of my components to my machine so I am looking for advice on what replacement parts I would need.

Then I want to upgrade from 2 stage vacum motors to 3 stage vacum motors. What vacum motors would be suitable for this kind of upgrade and would the wiring schemes stay the same?

If you change out a 2 stage vacuum for 3 stage, you will need to add a power cord and a toggle switch so each vacuum motor will run on its own breaker.
Not all machines have wire diagrams available but the first step would be to provide the model number and I can check and see if we have such a document.
