HOW TO CLEAN AN AREA OF CARPET (cont.)
How To Clean A Larger Area Of Carpet
See figure 3.
To clean a larger area of carpet, follow this procedure:
1. Begin at the right-hand corner of the carpet.
2. Make a pass halfway along the edge of the carpet.
Pull the machine backward at a steady speed.
3. Move to the edge of the carpet. Make another pass
next to your first pass.
4. As you make more passes, overlap one inch of the
area already cleaned. Make each pass four inches
different in length to prevent making a line in the
center of the carpet.
5. Make more passes until half of the carpet is
cleaned.
6. Move to the right hand corner of the carpet not yet
cleaned.
7. Make a pass halfway along the edge of the carpet.
8. As you make passes, overlap one inch of the area
already cleaned.
9. Make more passes until all of the room is cleaned.
CAUTION: Clarke will not be held liable for dam-
age to the carpet, or poor results be-
cause of the operator's lack of ability.
