OPERATING HAND TOOL
Optional accessory tool is required.
FOR SAFETY: Do not operate machine unless
operator manual is read and understood.
NOTE:
This machine cleans most synthetic upholstery
very well. Fabrics like Herculon and synthetic velvets
will clean with excellent results. Extraction is not
recommended for most cottons, silks, wools or natural
fiber velvets. Check cleaning instructions sewn in
furniture by manufacturer for further instructions.
Extra caution should be taken with furniture that has
been re-upholstered. Any material under new
upholstery may bleed and discolor new fabric.
NOTE:
Vacuum upholstery before cleaning.
1. TEST FABRIC FOR COLORFASTNESS. Pour a
small amount of cleaning solution on a white cloth.
Hold damp portion of cloth against an area of
upholstery which is hidden from view. Hold it there
for 60 seconds. If no color transfers to the cloth, it
should be safe to clean. However, always use
your best judgement.
2. Activate vacuum and pump switches.
3. Place hand tool on fabric and squeeze trigger
while applying pressure on fabric and slowly pull
tool backwards. Be careful not to over wet
upholstery. Repeat stroke without spray to get
fabric as dry as possible. Overlap cleaning strokes
to avoid streaking (Figure 5).
