Continue using dry strokes until you see only a little solution coming up through the nozzle (front of extractor) or recovery tank lid.
Do not make the carpet too wet! Use no more than two sets of forward and backward strokes while releasing solution. Always follow with dry strokes - the more the better.
Listen carefully! When the motor sound changes (rises in pitch), the recoverytank needs to be emptied. When water has reached the maximum capacity in the recovery tank, the float will rise to the top of the tank and the cleaner will NOT pick up dirty solution.
Allow carpet to dry. Avoid walking on the carpet until it is dry. Increased air circulation (open doors, turn on fans, etc.) will help carpet dry thoroughly.
Vacuum thoroughly after carpet has dried. This will reduce any shading left by the carpet cleaner’s brushes.
NOTE: No cleaning solution removes all stains from all carpets. Stain removal varies with the type of spill, time passed before removal, carpet material, and carpet type.
6. Cleaning Upholstery
IMPORTANT:Check fabric manufacturer’s
!instructions to confirm that it is alright to use your carpet cleaner to clean the upholstery.
Vacuum upholstery thoroughly with your vacuum cleaner’s attachments.
Test solution for colorfastness on a hidden area of upholstery. Wet a white cloth or paper towel with some solution. Gently rub onto a hidden area of upholstery. Wait ten minutes. Blot with white cloth or paper towel and check for color transfer.
