Assembling your carpet washer
Stand the base of the
carpet washer on the floor
in the upright position.
Line up the handle with
the main body and push
into place.
Turn the handle lock dial
anti-clockwise to lock
in position.
Tilt the clean water/
solution tank and line up
onto the carpet washer.
Push the tank back until it
clicks into place.
IMPORTANT:
Carpets should be dry vacuumed thoroughly before washing.
• Test for colourfastness - Wet a white absorbent cloth with the solution. In a small hidden area of your carpet/rugs/
upholstery, gently rub with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for colour removal or bleed with white
paper towel or cloth. If your carpet has more than one colour, check all colours.
• Test your carpet/rugs/upholstery – Run the carpet washer over a small hidden area. If no pile distortion occurs
continue cleaning.
• When cleaning an entire room, move furniture out of the area to be cleaned. If the furniture cannot be moved,
place aluminium foil or wax paper under the legs. This will prevent wood finishes from staining your carpet.
Pin up furniture skirts and curtains.
• When using the carpet washer, basic safety precautions should always be observed and don’t over saturate
your carpets.
• Only use Vax carpet solution. Using other solutions may cause excess foaming and will invalidate your guarantee.
• The clean water tank should only be filled with warm water (max 40�C). Filling the clean water tank with hot/boiling
water will damage your machine and invalidate the guarantee. This is a powerful carpet washer, before plugging in
make sure all controls are turned off and hold carpet washer firmly when starting and during use.
