CLEANING UPHOLSTERY
Optional accessory tool is required.
NOTE:
This machine cleans most synthetic upholstery.
Fabrics like Herculon and synthetic will clean with
excellent results. Extraction cleaning is not
recommended for most cottons, silks, wools or natural
fiber velvets. Use extra caution when cleaning
reupholstered furniture, fabric beneath new fabric may
bleed and discolor new fabric.
ATTENTION: When cleaning upholstery, always
check cleaning instructions sewn in furniture by
manufacturer.
1. Vacuum the upholstery before cleaning.
2. Test fabric for colorfastness: Pour a small amount
of recommended cleaning solution on a white cloth.
From an area of the upholstery that is hidden from
view, hold cloth on upholstery for one minute. If
color does not transfer to cloth it should be safe to
clean.
3. Attach the optional accessory hand tool to the
vacuum and solution hoses.
4. 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 8).
