Automatic “shut off”
W
hen the recovery tank (lower tank) is full
t
he automatic shutoff mechanism will shut
off the carpet cleaner suction
(suction will
be noticeably reduced).
At that time the red float disk will rise to
the top of the recovery tank lid (E). The
carpet cleaner will no longer pick up
dirty solution and the
motor sound will
become noticeably higher in pitch.
When this happens turn carpet clean-
er off and empty recovery tank
before
continuing use.
Check clean solution tank also; it may
need to be refilled.

Brush speed selector
Your SteamVac™ carpet cleaner has
three agitator brush settings.
Hl - for normal cleaning of carpet and
bare floors
LO - for gentle cleaning of carpets and
bare floors
OFF - for cleaning carpets and bare
floors when brushing is not desired.
(Such as when picking up liquid spills.
See page 10.)
Slide selector button to the desired set-
ting before cleaning.
Brush indicator
The brush indicator will spin (F) when
the carpet cleaner is tur
ned ON and the
brushes ar
e r
otating.
If the indicator does not spin and the
pattern is visible (G)
when the carpet
cleaner is turned ON,
the brushes are
not rotating.
There are three reasons why the brushes
may not be rotating:
1. Brush speed selector set on OFF (see
previous section).
2. Handle in upright position (see
“CIeaning mode indicator,” Fig. 2-3).
3. Brush indicator screen dirty.
