SET-UP
IMPORTANT: For best results, begin with a clean surface by
vacuuming surface or item before using the extractor.
Note: Familiarize yourself with the parts of the extractor by reading
this owner’s manual before using.

Carpet & Upholstery Concentrate only.

b) Fill tank to the designated fill line with hot tap water (not
boiling), replace cap.
c) Firmly push until the clean water tank snaps back into position.
Note: When moving the extractor from one location to another,
always make sure the recovery and clean water solution tanks
are completely empty. Then tilt the unit slightly backward and
roll on rear wheels, fold the looped handle and use the
carrying handle for transporting up and down stairs.
Before You Begin
A. Vacuum Carpet
Note: Never use this extractor as a standard vacuum cleaner.
For best results, vacuum carpets with a vacuum cleaner that has an
agitator. The bristles of the agitator help loosen and remove soil that is
deep in the carpet nap.
B. Pretest for Color Fastness. Before cleaning the carpet, we
recommend testing the carpet for color fastness. Moisten a white
towel with the cleaning solution. Test a small hidden area of the carpet
in a closet or in a corner. Gently rub the cloth over the carpet. Check
each color. If the towel does not pick up any color, it should be safe to
use the cleaning solution on the entire area.
C. Remove Furniture. Remove as much furniture from the room as
possible. Place aluminum foil or plastic film under or around the legs
and bases of the remaining furniture to prevent stains. Leave the foil
or plastic in place until the carpet is completely dry. Use masking tape
or pins to hold furniture skirts and draperies up out of the way.
After Cleaning
• Allow carpets to dry thoroughly. Try to keep children and pets off the
carpet until it is completely dry.
• Use towels or white cloths to step on if you must walk on the area
before it is dry.
• Wipe cleaning solution from woodwork and wood furniture immediately
to prevent damage to the wood or upholstery.
• If furniture must be placed back in the room before the carpet is dry,
use aluminum foil or plastic under the furniture legs to prevent staining
the carpet.
