Do not make the carpet too wet! Use no more than two sets

of forward and backward strokes while releasing solution.

Always follow with dry strokes-the more the better.

10. Listen carefully! When the motor sound changes (rising in pitch),

the recovery tank needs to be emptied. When water has reached

the maximum capacity in the recovery tank, the float will rise

to the top of the tank and the extractor will not pick up dirty solution.

11. Allow carpet to dry. Avoid walking on the carpet until it is dry.

Increased air circulation (open doors, turn on fans, etc.) will help

carpet dry thoroughly to prevent the growth of mold or mildew.

shading left by the extractor’s brushes.
