MACHINE APPLICATION

Use this machine to clean visible surface soils on a
daily basis or as needed to maintain a high level of
carpet cleanliness. The machine may be used during
normal business hours because often the carpet is dry
in less than 30 minutes.
If the carpet is heavily soiled, have the carpet deep
cleaned first before using this machine for routine
surface cleaning.
