Operations
ReadyTools
Your carpet washer comes equipped with a hose
and at least one attachment for cleaning stairs,
upholstery, and more.
Important! If using the machine to clean
upholstery, check upholstery tags.
1. Check manufacturer's tag before cleaning. Do not use
on velvet or silk. If manufacturer's tag is missing or not
coded, check with your furniture dealer.
2. Check for colourfastness in an inconspicuous place.
3. If possible, check upholstery stuffing. Coloured
stuffing may bleed through fabric when wet.
4. Plan activities to give upholstery time to dry.
5. Vacuum thoroughly to pick up loose debris and pet
hair. Use a vacuum with a brush attachment and
a crevice tool to clean in fabric folds and tufts.
6. To begin cleaning with attachments, follow the
instructions on page 7 for filling the 2-in-1 Water Tank.
7. Set the ReadyTools Dial to the TOOLS setting.
This will allow spray and suction from the hose.
8. Attach the cleaning tool to the end of the hose.
9. Clean by pressing the spray trigger to spray
solution onto the area to be cleaned. Slowly move the
tool back and forth over the soiled surface. Release the
spray trigger to suction dirty water. Continue to clean in
the area, working in small sections, until dirt is removed.
Caution: Do Not Overwet.
10. When finished cleaning, remove and rinse tool(s) in
clean, running water.
11. It is recommended that you suction clean water from
a bowl to rinse out the hose.
12. Before wrapping hose onto tool rack, lift end of hose
and stretch out to ensure all water is cleared from hose.
13. Wrap flex hose around tool rack.
14. Empty 2-in-1 Water Tank and rinse out, following
instructions on page 8.
15. If the ReadyTools Dial becomes difficult to turn,
the diverter assembly that holds the dial may need to
be cleaned. To clean, first remove nozzle and locate
screw that holds the diverter assembly in place.
With a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the screw and
set aside.
16. Remove diverter assembly; hold under running
water making sure water flows through and around the
dial. Turn the dial about 10 times clockwise and 10 more
times counter-clockwise. This should free up any debris.
17. Wipe diverter assembly with a soft cloth and replace
back on machine. Replace nozzle.
18. Return ReadyTools Dial to FLOOR CLEANING
setting.
IMPORTANT
Check for colourfastness in an inconspicuous place. If
possible, check upholstery stuffing. Coloured stuffing
may bleed through fabric when it becomes wet.
