Cleaning carpet

Read “Before you begin cleaning” instructions.

Fill clean solution tank (upper tank) according to instructions for Fig. 2-10 through 2-16.

Move speed selector to LO for gentle cleaning or HI for normal cleaning.

Dry hands and plug cord into a proper- ly grounded outlet.

Do not clean over floor electrical out- lets.

To avoid walking on damp carpet, start at the end of the room farthest from the door or path to sink where tanks will be emptied and filled .

Step on handle release pedal and lower handle to operating position; turn clean- er ON.

2-27

Squeeze trigger to release cleaning solution and slowly push cleaner for- ward (equals one wet stroke). Continue to squeeze trigger and slowly pull cleaner back toward you (second wet stroke).

Release trigger and slowly push cleaner forward over area just sprayed with solu- tion (dry stroke). Then slowly pull cleaner back toward you without squeezing trigger (dry stroke).

Overlap strokes by one inch to help pre- vent streaking.

Keep nozzle flat on floor for both for- ward and reverse strokes.

For heavily soiled areas, repeat. To avoid saturating carpet, do not use more than 4 wet strokes over one area. Always end with dry strokes.

It is best to alternate wet and dry strokes as described above.

For best cleaning results and to aid in faster drying of carpet, end with more dry strokes. (Continue using dry strokes until little water is visible passing through the recovery tank lid.)

Empty recovery tank when the motor sound becomes higher pitched and there is a loss in suction (see Fig. 2-4).

When finished cleaning, follow “After cleaning” instructions.
