9. Pre-spray the carpeted stair by hold-
ing the tool (A) or (B) about one inch
above the carpet and push it forward
while pressing the trigger (equals one
wet stroke).
10. Position tool against the riser and slightly
press it into carpet pile. Press the trigger
and pull the tool slowly over the carpet
(second wet stroke). Release trigger at end
of stroke.
11. Lift tool, and position it against riser.
Pull tool slowly over carpet without
pressing trigger (dry stroke).
12. Overlap strokes by 1/2 inch to help
prevent streaking.
It is best to alternate wet and dry
strokes as described above. End with
more dry strokes to aid in faster drying
of carpet.
To avoid saturating carpet, do not use
more than 4 wet strokes over any one
area. Always end with dry strokes.
If additional cleaning is necessary, wait
until the carpet is completely dry before
using the tool again.
13. Empty recovery tank when the motor
sound becomes higher pitched and
there is a loss in suction (see “Automatic
shut-off”, Fig. 2-6).
When finished cleaning, follow “After
cleaning” instructions on pages 9 & 10
and “After using tool” instructions on
page 13.
