Important Safety Instructions - RugDoctor Mighty Pro X3 User Manual

The Carpet Care Experts
was founded by a professional carpet cleaner in
1972 with the first machines having been designed
and built for professional use. A brand was born and
soon after, Rug Doctor launched the first rental
programme that made professional-grade carpet
cleaning machines available to the public. Over
40 years later, Rug Doctor has grown to become
a household name and continues as the leader in
carpet care rental systems with powerful machines
and innovative products.
