Cleaning Information
Cleaning Patterns
For regular carpet cleaning use an over-
lapping arc pattern three times over the
same area (two passes with solution and
one pass for drying). When cleaning
carpers, first clean in circular pattern,
then use the overlapping arc pattern to
dry the area.
Note: Dirtiest areas may require two
or more cleaning passes. Using either
pattern, you should develop a comfort-
able rhythm. To obtain maximum per-
formance from your RX-20, move it
slowly and deliberately with a 50% over-
lap, giving it time to clean and extract.
(Unlike a manual wand, the RX-20 is
doing the work you had to do in the
past) A steady pace rather than a fren-
zied one will increase efficiency and
production and decrease fatigue.
The Following Cautions Should
Be Observed While Cleaning:
1. DO NOT operate your RX-20 over
metal floor moldings. Damage to both
the molding and the cleaning head will
result.
2. DO NOT operate your RX-20 on
hardwood floors.
3. DO NOT operate your RX-20 over
loose or unraveled carpet seams.
The cleaning head may catch and
cause further damage.
4. DO NOT operate your RX-20 on
concrete floors. It will develop sharp
edges on the extraction heads that
will damage carpet fibers.
5. DO NOT clean over the edge of a
loose carpet. Instead, clean only up
to the edge. Damage may occur
should the extraction heads catch
the loose carpet.
Special Information
During the cleaning of some plush car-
pets you may notice a “pilling” effect.
With an RX-20, loose yarns form balls
and are kicked aside as the cleaning
heads revolve. This is normal when ag-
gressive cleaning or even normal vacu-
uming takes place, as evidenced by a
number of dead, loose yarns in the
vacuum cleaner bag. These loose yarns,
in most cases, are short staple yarns or
filler yarns used to give the carpet a
denser appearance. Because your RX-
20 weighs approximately 90 pounds and
rests on five four-inch cleaning heads,
the yarns are not sucked up into the
vacuum heads as they are with a
vacuum cleaner or old-style cleaning
wand.
