G
Brush indicator
The brush indicator will spin (F) when
the carpet cleaner is turned ON and the
brushes are rotating.
If the indicator does not spin and the
pattern is visible (G) when the carpet
cleaner is turned ON, the brushes are
not rotating.
There are three reasons why the brushes
may not be rotating:
1. Brush speed selector set on OFF (see
previous section).
2. Handle in upright position (see
"CIeaning mode indicator," Fig. 2-3).
3. Brush indicator screen dirty.

Automatic "shut off"
When the recovery tank (lower tank) is full
the automatic shutoff mechanism will shut
off the carpet cleaner suction (suction will
be noticeably reduced).
At that time the red float disk will rise to
the top of the recovery tank lid (E). The
carpet cleaner will no longer pick up
dirty solution and the motor sound will
become noticeably higher in pitch.
When this happens turn carpet clean-
er off and empty recovery tank before
continuing use.
Check clean solution tank also; it may
need to be refilled.
