CLEANING TOOL TIPS
Wands
With a wand, keep cleaning strokes short, front to back, and run a “dry pass”.
After pulling the wand for a strip of 3 or 4 ft long with the solution trigger activated, go back
up to the top of the stroke, and make a “dry “ pass [i.e. no solution flowing]. This gives the
wand a second chance to pick up the solution on the carpet.
If you do not run a dry pass, the carpet can take longer to dry, and, possibly, the pad under
the carpet can become saturated.
Be aware of the carpet seams; try to use strokes that are parallel with the seam. Avoid
pulling the wand across the seam. Every stroke can peel the seam connection and pull
the carpet off the floor.
Also, tilt the wand handle down [head up] to move the tool forward, and away from you,
on the carpet. This means less pull on the carpet and less work for you.
