usage
The cleaner will automatically extract excess water and
solution from the area (For heavily soiled areas, repeat if
necessary)
IMPORTANT: Do not fill with dirty water above
the “MAX FILL” line.
NOTE: For upholstery, always check manufacturers
guidelines and do not over-wet. Ensure upholstery is
dry before use.
Emptying the dirty water tank
The carpet washer is equipped with a shut off valve within
the dirty water tank. When the dirty water tank becomes
full, the float will rise, shutting off the air flow through the
nozzle.
NOTE: The float in the carpet washer will shut off the
suction when the dirty water tank is full. For best
results, use smooth, steady motion keeping the nozzle
flat against the carpet. Tipping the carpet washer and
breaking the seal of the nozzle and carpet will cause
the float to rise and shut off the suction. Once the
float is activated, empty the dirty water tank. If the
dirty water tank does not appear full, press the Power
on/off pedal and wait for the float to settle and reset.
If the float repeatedly shuts off the suction, empty the
dirty water tank. For best results, use only Vax AAA
Carpet Cleaner. Other solutions may generate
excessive foam which will cause the float to rise
prematurely and shut off the suction. Use the
specified amount of Vax AAA Carpet Cleaner (as
indicated on the bottle) per fill up of the clean water
tank. A higher concentration of carpet cleaner may
cause excessive foaming.
NOTE: There will be a noticeable change in the pitch of
the cleaner. This indicates a need to empty the dirty
water tank.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from
moving parts - unplug before emptying the dirty
water tank.
Step onto the handle release pedal to recline the unit fully.
Push the dirty water tank latch backwards to release
(Fig.5/7).
To empty, remove the front nozzle (Fig 5/8), turn upside
down and pour the soiled water into the sink. Rinse with
clean water.
Place the nozzle back onto the dirty water tank by clicking
into place and replace into the unit. Ensure that the front
of the nozzle is put into place first (Fig 5/9). Restore the
machine to the upright position.
