Hold the Power Nozzle. Squeeze the switch
actuator and slowly guide the Power Nozzle
back and forth in smooth and easy strokes. Let
the Power Nozzle and the Rainbow Cleaner do
the work.

adjustment to meet virtually any carpet cleaning
need. The HEIGHT adjustment is made by
turning the three-position thumb wheel located on the top side of the Power Nozzle
to the desired selection.
LOW: For most carpets and rugs.
MEDIUM: For plusher carpeting where Power Nozzle may drag.
HIGH: For very deep pile carpeting and special applications.
