Eureka 2590 Series Carpet Cleaner User Manual


 
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
CARPET SHAMPOOER/EXTRACTOR.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury.
Do not immerse product. Use only on surfaces moistened by cleaning
process.
Do not use outdoors or expose to rain.
Use only commercially available floor cleaners intended for machine
application.
Do not leave the Extractor when plugged in. Turn OFF the switch
and unplug the electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when
used by or near children.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturerʼs
recommended attachments.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If the Extractor is not working
properly, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return it to a service center immediately.
Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on
cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run the
Carpet Shampooer/Extractor over cord. Keep cord away from heated
surfaces.
Connect to a properly grounded outlet only (refer to Grounding
Instructions).
Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying
capacity.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the
cord.
Do not handle plug or Extractor with wet hands.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening
blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce
airflow.
This Extractor creates suction. Some models also contain a moving
agitator brush. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body
away from openings and moving parts.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot fireplace or barbecue ashes.
Do not use without recovery tank in place.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
If the machine tips over during use, shut it off immediately, set it upright,
and wait for the motor to stop completely. This allows the float to return
to normal position and permits proper airflow through the cleaner.
Do not use to pick up gasoline, acetone, perfumes, colognes, paint
thinners and other flammable liquids or use in places where they may
be present.
Operate and store indoors in an area above 32°F where the machine
will not freeze.
Keep your work area well lighted.

GENERAL INFORMATION
NOTE: Thoroughly clean carpet,
upholstery and stairs with a
vacuum cleaner before using
this portable deep cleaner.
Automatic Suction Shut-Off
The automatic suction shut-off functions when
the recovery tank is full of liquid. As the tank fills,
the float (inside the recovery tank) rises until it
shuts off the suction causing the motor sound
to become high pitched. When this happens,
empty the recovery tank.
The automatic suction shut-off also functions if
the portable deep cleaner tips over. To continue
use, turn the portable deep cleaner OFF and
set it upright. Wait a few seconds to allow the
motor to come to a complete stop. Restart the
portable deep cleaner.
