operation

Automatic “shut off”

When  the  dirty  water tank  (lower  tank)  is  full  the
automatic  shutoff  mechanism  will  shut  off  the  carpet
cleaner suction

(suction  will  be  noticeably  reduced).  At  that  time  the
yellow float disk will rise to the top of the dirty water tank

lid. The carpet cleaner will no longer pick up dirty solution
and  the  motor  sound  will  become  noticeably  higher  in
pitch. 

NOTE: 

When  this  happens  turn  carpet  cleaner  off  and

empty dirty water tank before continuing use

Check clean solution tank also; it may need to be refilled
(Fig.4/4).

Brush speed selector

Your  VCW-04  carpet  cleaner  has  three  agitator  brush
settings. 

Hl

- for normal cleaning of carpet 

LO

- for gentle cleaning of carpets

OFF

-  for  cleaning  carpets  when  brushing  is  not  desired.

(Such as when picking up liquid spills). 

Slide  selector  button  to  the  desired  setting  before
cleaning (Fig.4/5).

Brush indicator

The brush indicator will spin (A) when the carpet cleaner is
turned ON and the brushes are rotating (Fig 4/6). 

NOTE: 

If  the  indicator  does  not  spin  and  the  pattern  is

visible  (B)  when  the  carpet  cleaner  is  turned  ON,  the
brushes are not rotating.

There  are  three  reasons  why  the  brushes  may  not  be
rotating:

Brush speed selector set on OFF (see previous section).

Solution tube connected (Fig.5/10).

Brush indicator screen dirty (Fig.4/7).

To  clean  screen  turn  carpet  cleaner  off  and  disconnect
from  electrical  outlet.  Remove  clear  cover  and  wipe  off
screen  with  a  damp  cloth.  Snap  cover  back  into  position
(Fig.4/7).

Clean solution tank (upper tank)

The clean solution tank holds the cleaning solution that is
to be dispersed onto the surface to be cleaned.

How to fill

Disconnect  carpet  cleaner  from  electrical  outlet.  Place
carpet  cleaner  handle  in  the  upright,  locked  position.  To
remove  tank,  press  down  on  handle  and  pull  forward
(Fig.4/8).
