erly grounded outlet.

lets.

To replace nozzle, line up tabs (A) on
nozzle with holes (B) in cleaner. Slide
tabs into holes.
Slide nozzle completely onto cleaner.
Press down on nozzle to secure it.
Replace recovery tank (Figs. 2-21 and
2-22).
The nozzle must be in the proper
position in order for the recovery tank
to go on properly.
Raise cleaner to upright position and
replace clean water tank (Figs. 2-16
through 2-19).
7. Squeeze trigger to release cleaning
solution and slowly push deep cleaner
forward (equals one wet stroke).
8. Continue to squeeze trigger and
slowly pull deep cleaner back toward
you (second wet stroke). Release trigger
and slowly push deep cleaner forward
over area just sprayed with solution (dry
stroke). Then slowly pull deep cleaner
back toward you without squeezing trig-
ger (dry stroke). Continue using dry
strokes until little water is visible passing
through the recovery tank lid.

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

10. If rinsing the carpet is desired, set
Wash/Rinse switch to RINSE (Fig. 3-7).
Repeat steps 7-9.
Rinsing is not necessary, but will help
remove detergent residue and help your
carpet look fresher.

11. For heavily soiled areas, repeat
steps 6-9. Avoid saturating carpet, as
noted below.
Note: 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.)
12. Empty recovery tank when the
motor sound becomes higher pitched
and there is a loss in suction (see
"Automatic shut-off", Fig. 2-6).
When finished cleaning, follow "After
cleaning" instructions on pages 9 &10.
