DANGER: Failure to read the operator’s
manual before operating this
machine could result in injury to
you or to other personnel, damage
to the machine or to other property
as well.
CAUTION: Pump damage can occur if the
pump is operated without water in
the solution tank. Do not activate
the pump if the solution tank is
empty.
1. Put water and cleaning solution into the solution
tank. Clarke recommends using Clarkare ®
Extractor Concentrate as a cleaning solution. For
every gallon of water, add between two and ten
ounces of Clarkare
® . The amount of cleaning
solution used depends on the condition of the carpet.
DANGER: Electrocution could occur if
machine is connected to an
electrical outlet that is not properly
wired or grounded. Always use a
3-wire electrical system connected
to electrical ground. For maximum
protection, use a circuit that is
protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI). Consult your
electrical contractor.

3. Turn the key switch to the "ON" position.
4. Turn the traverse speed control to the desired
position.
5. Turn pump pressure knob to desired setting.

control handle.
8. Adjust the brush to the proper carpet height setting.
9. Guiding the machine by the control handle, move
across the floor in the forward direction.

NOTE: By properly planning the cleaning pattern, a
minimum number of turns will need to be made.
See figures 15a and 15b.
