HOW TO CLEAN AN AREA OF CARPET
CAUTION:
The recovery tank is equipped with an
electric shut-off float switch. When the
recovery tank becomes full, all electrical
functions will automatically be shut off. Turn
the vacuum/accessory and spray/brush
switch to the "OFF" position before emptying
the recovery tank.
Recomendations for best Wash-n-Rinse cleaning results
1. Vacuum carpet thoroughly before cleaning.
2. Precondition spots, stains and any high traffic areas as needed.
3. Clean carpet by following the instructions in this section. See
"How to Operate the Machine".
4. After cleaning, dry carpets by using Clarke fans. Windows
should be open to assist in proper drying.
Note: When using the extractor to clean carpets, follow this
procedure:
1. Do not walk on freshly cleaned carpets for at least four hours or
until the carpet is dry to touch.
2. If aluminum or plastic pieces have been placed under the legs of
furniture, do not remove them until the carpet is dry.
3. Do not allow children or pets to crawl or walk around on the damp
carpet.
4. Vacuum right after the carpet is dry and then vacuum the carpet
once a week, or as often as needed.
To clean an area of carpet, follow this procedure: (See figure
2)
1.
Put water into rinse tank and cleaning solution into the
chemical tank. Clarke recommends using Clarkare Extrac-
tor Concentrate as a cleaning solution.
2.
Turn the vacuum/accessory/switch to the "I" position.
3.
To adjust brush height, place brush adjusting rod in the
position that corresponds to your carpet type. Proper
adjustment is with approximatley 1/8" bristle engagement.
NOTE: Incorrect brush height may cause circuit breaker to
trip. Raise brush and reset circuit breaker.
4.
Turn the spray/brush switch to the "I" position (or for
intermittent use, press and hold the spray/brush switch to
the "II" position). With the switch activated, slowly and
steadily pull the machine backwards.
5.
Shut the spray/brush "O" and vacuum an additional six
inches.
6.
To clean a small area of carpet, clean the carpet in sections
three feet square. As you make additional passes, overlap
one inch of the area already cleaned.
7.
To remove more liquid from the carpet, lift up slightly on the
handle, transferring machine weight to the pick up head.
The speed you move the machine will depend on how dirty
the carpet is. If the carpet is very dirty, move the machine
slower.
8.
As the machine is used, dirty solution will begin to fill the
recovery tank. When the solution tank is empty, the recovery
tank must be emptied. If the solution in the recovery tank is
foamy, the recovery tank may need to be emptied before the
solution tank is refilled.
