how to operate my hoover power scrub carpet cleaner
lost my manual how do I operate the machine?
To remove Clean Water tank, press Red release button on top of it. It will tilt forward, pull it out.
Because the machine uses an automatic measuring system, you don't have to do that part yourself. Just fill the water compartment with hot tap water, fill the Soap compartment with Cleaning Solution.
Set knob on front of it to "Wash". Replace tank by tilting it back in.
There is a step-button on the left to release the hinge, and a step-button on the right to operate Power On/Off (like a standard upright vac).
Turn it on and squeeze trigger while pushing forward slowly. Go over area, ending with dry pulls/pushes (not squeezing trigger) to pull up water.
When Dirty Water tank is full, squeeze the red lever in front. It will unlatch, tilting forward. Pull it out. Release latch in back of tank to loosen cover. Pull the lid/cover off and empty. Replace by tilting it back in. If the tank fills completely you will hear the pitch sound higher and you will lose suction (thanks to the bobber inside).
When you've finished, go over the area again; this time with the Mode/Knob set to "Rinse" (the know on front of the clean water tank). This removes the cleaning solution residue and any remaining dirt from the carpet.
Good suction, will not leave the carpet soaking wet.
Hope this helps. I just used it last night, so this is from memory. Very easy to use.
