• Make sure both tanks are clean before use.
• Connect the flexible vacuum hose onto the vacuum hose inlet and the high-pressure spray
hose onto the solution outlet. (fig. 1)
• Connect the vacuum hose and the high-pressure spray hose to the carpet cleaning wand or
the upholstery tool.
• Fill the clean water tank with detergent and water. Use the correct dilution rate for the deter
-
gent. Never over fill.
• Fill the anti-foam tank with an appropriate de-foamer solution.
• Important – Always use low foaming carpet cleaning chemicals. If using foaming carpet
cleaning chemical, or if foam develops due to residues in the carpet, ensure that an appropriate
de-foamer is used in the anti-foam tank.
Incorrect chemicals could cause damage to the carpets being cleaned or cause the machine to
malfunction.
• Connect the cable to main power.
• Ensure the slider on top of the trigger unit is in the closed position
• Switch on the unit spray and/or vacuum.
• Squeeze the trigger to spray solution onto the carpet/upholstery. Maintain a constant pressure of
the wand/tool onto the surface to be cleaned. (fig. 2)
• To dry the surface being cleaned, complete the cleaning with a second pass with the vacuum (and no spray).
• Never soak the textile being cleaned while spraying.
Color Fastness – Before using cleaning solution or pre-spotter, test carpet for color fastness on an inconspicuous area.
Apply solution to a small piece of clean white material or tissue, and then rub on carpet vigorously. Excessive amounts of
dye showing on the material indicate that the color is not fast, and the carpet should not be wet cleaned.
• Move furniture around to give a clear working area. Cover bottoms of furniture legs where necessary (aluminum cook
-
ing foil is ideal). Pin up curtains and drapes.
• Vacuum carpet thoroughly to remove any residual dust or debris.
• Areas of heavy carpet soiling can be removed more easily if first treated with a concentrated cleaning solution or pre-
spotting solution.
• Rate of cleaning will depend upon the thickness of the carpet and the degree of dirt in the area being cleaned.
• Do not clean any more than twice. Carpets may shrink if they are over-wet or not properly fixed down.
CAUTION – When cleaning on stairs take great care to ensure that machine is stable, otherwise it may cause injury to
either the operator or a third party. Use the stair/upholstery tool for cleaning in place of the wand assembly.
