MACHINE OPERATION

This machine is very maneuverable and is designed
to clean as you pull backwards across the carpet.
When moving forward, always push down on the
handle to raise the front of the machine up.
Normal Cleaning
 Always vacuum the carpet with a vacuum cleaner
before extraction.
 We recommend you wear clean tennis shoes or
non-slip shoes when working with a carpet
extractor. Street shoes or rubber cushion soled
shoes when wet will release absorbed dirt or
grease onto the wet carpet and cause re-soiling.
 You may need to pre-treat spots and heavy traffic
lanes before extraction. Refer to the "Common
Stains and Cleaning Treatments" chart for
examples of types of stains and the solution used
to treat the stain.
 Soak up excess liquids with a towel.
 Test cleaner on a small inconspicuous area to
make sure it will not damage the carpet fibers.
 Apply appropriate spotter, following directions on
the container.
 You may apply the pre-treat chemicals in a number
of ways:
 Use a hand held spray bottle.
 Use a 2 - 3 gallon (7 - 8 liter) pump up container
with a spray wand.
 Use the machine spray bar, by tilting the machine
backwards slightly away from the carpet. Press
and hold the square, intermittent switch to apply
the chemical.
 Plug the machine into an appropriate wall outlet.
 Lower the brush.
 Extract the perimeter of the room first, move the
vac shoe as close to the wall or baseboard as
possible. Use the left side of the machine to clean
against the wall for best results.
 Start on one side of the room and work your way
across the room in rows, always working away
from the cord.
 Push and hold the red, square switch to start
spraying and begin moving backwards. About 12"
to 18" (30 to 46 cm) before your stopping point,
release the square switch to stop spraying, and
continue moving backwards to recover all of the
solution you have just applied. This will prevent
leaving an excessively wet spot in the carpet.
Move forward to start the next path, overlap 2" (5
cm) for best results. Continue cleaning the entire
area in this method.
 As you clean, keep an eye on the liquid level in the
recovery tank. Empty the recovery tank as needed
during operation.
Do not apply water more than twice in one area to
prevent excess wetting.
 Over-wetting can damage the carpet and the
underlying floor.
 If the brush becomes over loaded by deep pile
carpet, hair, strings, or an obstruction the motor will
draw too much current and the circuit breaker will
trip.
 Unplug the machine, check for debris, and remove
it.
 Push down on the circuit breaker to reset it and
resume operation.
SPECIAL CLEANING
This machine may be used to perform special
cleaning jobs other than "normal" scrubbing.
Double Scrubbing
This procedure provides deeper cleaning on heavily
soiled floors.
 Double scrub by making a second pass over the
carpet with only the brush turned on. Then, make
a third pass with the solution pump, vacuum and
brush on to remove the most dirt. Make an
additional vacuum pass to dry the carpet as much
as possible.
 The slower the cleaning pass, the more dwell time,
increasing the amount of dirt that is removed from
the carpet
OPTION - ACCESSORY CLEANING
Preparing the Accessories:
 Select the correct tool for the job to be performed.
 Connect the solution hose to the quick connect at
the lower right side of the machine and on the tool.
 To connect a tool, pull back on the collar of the
quick connect, insert one end of the solution hose
fitting and push it in until it locks. Attach the other
end of the solution hose to the tool in the same
manner.
 Remove the machine hose from the left side of the
dome and insert one end of the recovery hose into
the dome. Attach the other end of the hose to the
accessory tool.
Cleaning upholstery, stairs or confined areas:
 Prepare the solution / recovery tanks as you would
for normal carpet cleaning.
 To begin cleaning, turn on the rocker switch for the
solution pump and vac motor only. When you
squeeze the trigger of the accessory tool it will
spray the cleaning solution, release the trigger to
stop the spray.
 Do not apply water more than twice in one area
to prevent excess wetting.
 Over-wetting can damage upholstery and / or
fabric.
Priming the Solution Pump
During normal use the clean solution tank may run
dry. This will allow air to enter the pump and solution
lines. Air in the solution lines will prevent the pump
from working properly, you must prime the pump.
 Refill the solution tank.
 Disconnect any accessory tool that may be in use.
CAUTION - place machine near a floor drain prior to
the next step.
 Turn on the solution pump switch.
