Screw the nut, which is on the end of the steam hose, onto the outlet of the tool - hand tight only. 4 FLOOR CLEANER IMPORTANT Some carpets have stain resistant treatments, which have varying active Iives before breakdown. Accordingly it is best to try a small area of carpet that is normally unseen, then allow 24 hours to check whether the steam has any unusual effects on the carpet material, e. g. If this happens DO NOT CONTINUE USE - Check with your carpet supplier for further advice. Used correctly the floor cleaner will refresh your carpet by removing surface grime, pet hairs etc. It is not a dirt extraction system, so cannot necessarily remove deep stains or grease. Attempting to make it do this by longer action of steam may result in watermarking or staining. Cleaning carpets Connect the universal handle and long handle to the floor cleaner head. Fit the cleaning toweI to the head by placing the towel over the floor cleaner head and pulling the drawstring tight. The drawstring can be secured at the back of the floor cleaner. (See diagrams to right) Before using the floor cleaner, use a vacuum to pick up the larger dirt and grit particles. Having prepared the area, plug the boiler unit in and wait for steam to appear at the accessory head. Beware of hot water discharge prior to steam emission. Now begin to move the floor cleaner head over the carpet at a steady pace. If there are stains on the carpet pause for a few seconds to allow the steam time to penetrate. Glide the floor cleaner over the surface. It is generally better, and easier, to pull rather than push the head across heavy pile carpets. Used towels can be washed out and reused. Do not use bleach or fabric conditioner. Use only one third of normal soap powder to avoid clogging of the fibres. Spare towels can be purchased from Earlex. The Floor Cleaner can also be used on other types of flooring such as ceramic, cork, marble, linoleum, stone, parquet etc. If you have an area to clean which has joints (such as tiles) it may be useful to use the brush attachment of the jet nozzle in order to clean completely.
