Hoover Shampoo- Polisher - Manual (Page 15)

4. Vacuum thoroughly
Vacuum carpet to remove dust, sand, and lint. The quality of the sham-
pooing job depends, to a great extent, on how thoroughly the dirt is
removed before shampooing.
5. Remove stains
Special stain removal products are available for carpet and rugs. You
may also pretreat heavily soiled or stained areas by using the shampoo,
according to the instructions on the container.
Use dry cleaning fluid to remove spots which are not soluble in water,
such as grease or chewing gum.
Do not use shampoo-polisher to apply dry cleaning fluid.
Note: Some stains cannot be removed, such as ink, fruit, animal stains
and stains which have been on the carpet for a long time. Those stains
may become more apparent when the film of dirt has been removed by
shampooing.
6. Shampoo inaccessible areas
Dip a hand brush into a bowl of the shampoo solution and brush inacces-
sible areas, such as under radiators. Do not pour leftover solution into
your shampoo-polisher tank; the lint in the solution may plug it.
Ready, set, shampoo
Disconnect cleaner from electri-
cal outlet.
1. Attach rug shampoo
accessory

down on a flat surface, make sure
the foam generator is screwed on
tightly (see Maintenance Section

To convert the unit for shampoo-
ing, fit notch on rug shampoo
accessory onto wheel axle of
unit. Snap into place.
Press sides and front of accessory
into place, completely covering
bottom of shampoo-polisher.
