Question: i am using my machine for the first time and the 2nd tank does not  pick up the dirt and excess water. can you tell me what i need to do?
Document: I've been using it a lot in the past few weeks trying to keep everything clean before I move. It doesn't leak for me. The first time I poured water into the clean water tank it did leak out the bottom, I think the seal just wasn't sealed completely yet. Once I used it and filled it the second (and so on) time it didn't leak. So when you fill the clean water tank the first time just put a towel under it just in case.
The machines arm lowers pretty far, so it's kind of adjustable fit you when pushing it back and forth. Once the dirt rank is full, a yellow stopper will rise to tell you it's time to change and dump it. Simple to unlatch the tanks, easy to open and dump, rinse and relacth to the machine. The squeeze trigger allows the cleaner to run through the machine onto the rug, it is controlled and needs practice so as not to over wet the area.
DOES NOT COME WITH EXTENTION AND HOSE! If you have stairs and need the hose do not buy this one bc it does not have it. Other than that it's great! It's easy to work with and I've seen some people having a hard time out the clean tank in. IT'S EASY! I enjoy using it and can't wait to use it again.
I was amazed how much dirt came out of my carpets. The dirty water tank looked like chocolate milk! That is proof enough of how cleaning brushes go deep to clean your carpets. While using the Hoover SteamVac, I found it very easy to move around the carpet. It is not heavy and effortlessly maneuvers back and forth.
I have used this twice with great results so far. The first time I used it I cleaned an area rug in my living room which has light colors in it. I was shocked how vibrant the colors looked after I was done. I followed the directions on how to clean and it took up the few stains I had with ease. The dirty water was...well..dirtier than I was expecting considering I had been using an oklder Hoover rug cleaner.
I filled the tank and got started. I heard a very loud noise and at first thought that this machine  was just exceptionally noisy when I realized there had been some type of advertisement for the machine stuck into the intake nozzle. Now why the manufacturer would do this is beyond me ....I have already bought the machine...why do I need another ad for it stuck into an important element of  the machine!!!?
We don't wear shoes in our house so our carpets don't get extremely dirty; it's more about cleaning dust, pollen and general grime. This machine is perfect for that. If you have pets, kids & lots of dirt, you may want a beefier machine.-It's really easy to use & comes apart so you can clean it up after each use.-3-Speed Brush including "brush off" so you can just pick up spills.
I usually use the dry stroke a few extra times.By the way, the carpet cleaner itself DOES NOT heat up the water, you need to add your own hot water. Hot water is more effective than cold water in carpet cleaning. The brushes are not powered. So, don't expect this to be a vacuum machine.Overall this carpet cleaner works great if you just need to carpet clean entire rooms at a time. I would recommend it to my friends.
This model works really great for the money. I have to confess I did what alot of folks did and did not remove the stupid paper thing from the intake first. Although I just used my old one without the brushes working 5 days ago, and it had sucked up alot of dirt, I couldn't believe how much more I got with this little baby just testing it out after that recent cleaning.I have no stairs so this is perfect for me. I have leather couches so no need for upholstery attachments.
Very good machine. I got this to remove pet stains from two color carpets - white and brown. It did the trick with very little soap, especially on the white carpet. When using, make sure you put all the parts back EXACTLY as the instructions say. I didn't put the water tank back in the manner the instructions said and the water didn't get hot. It has to be loaded front-to-back, I just stuck it in.
Answer: If it is not on there just right it will not suck the water up.    Take it off and try putting it on again.   It makes a different noise if the tank is hooked up correctly.    Just make sure it is on there good and snapped in tightly.   Also if the top of the tank isn't snapped on there correctly it wont work right.   Put it on from the front first and you should hear it snap into placeHope this helps, I love mine!
