  8. Plug the extractor into an outlet farthest ahead of the direction of cleaning
  9. Extract carpet with dual stroke method. Open trigger on the way up and vacuum on the return stroke.  Heavy soiled areas may need a second pass.  Be careful not to over wet the carpet.  The extraction of the water is the key to producing a cleaner carpet.  It is important to remove as much water as possible apply adequate pressure on the wand to produce maximum suction on the carpet.
