| Prepare Upholstery for Cleaning |
 |
 |
1. Prepare surface for cleaning
by thoroughly vacuuming or brushing. Set up the machine,
directing your attention to the hose connections at
the rear. |
|
| Set Up |
|
|
2. First, pull free
the top portion of the large vacuum hose at the back
of the machine. Then connect the top portion of the
machine vacuum hose to the vacuum hose of the Hand
Tool. Next, screw brass connection to small diversion
valve, ensure it is on tightly to engage. |
|
|
3. Remove the UPPER (white) tank.
Mix with water in a clean
bucket according to the label directions and POUR into
the LOWER red tank. |
|
|
4. Fit Upper white tank back in
place, seal tank and clear dome securely by replacing
restraining wire. |
|
|
5. Plug in the power cord and position
the machine. Refer to the label on top of machine and
turn the machine ON for upholstery cleaning. |
|
|
6. TEST for colourfastness by first
cleaning a small, hidden area, then rub the test area
with a white towel. If no colour appears, continue cleaning.
A little colour on the towel means there's some chance
of colour running, but you probably can still clean
safely. Dry cushions on sheets or towels laid out on
the floor. |
|
| Start Cleaning |
|
|
7. Working at a slow, steady pace, begin cleaning by squeezing the hand tool lever as you pull the tool over fabric. Overlap strokes slightly. IMPORTANT: Do NOT depress the button on machine handle while using the hand tool. |
|
|
8. If foam builds up around the
hand tool, pull a little bit faster or vacuum excess
solution by passing over area a second time without
squeezing lever. |
|
|
9. When cleaning is
complete, disconnect the upholstery tool then empty
any remaining solution by taking the machine outside
or over drain and turn machine ON for upholstery, this
will empty lower tank. |
|
|
10. Before returning
to store, ensure machine is cleaned according to instructions
at back of machine and vacuum hose is securely reconnected.
Switch should be in OFF position.. |
|
| NOTE: For
velvet upholstery, fluff up damp pile with a soft brush
or towel to keep from matting. |
