This is a great manual. It was easy to read and very accurate. The size of the manual is small so email is no problem. I highly recommend it. The manual is very hard to find other than this website.
Whilst this is a photo copy, and some of the pages are a little askew, it was all readable and intact. A real bonus finding an old manual for a classic piece of kit that no other site had.
Great stuff.
It was easy done, and I got exactly what I was looking for.

Do not use the extractor on upholstery marked �S�, �X� or �Dry Clean Only�. Vacuum upholstery thoroughly with your vacuum cleaner�s attachments.

Place handle in upright, storage position. Press on the tab (A) to remove the hose wand (B) from the floor nozzle (C) (Fig. 28). Slide tool (D) onto end of hose wand. Snap tool over bump (E) on wand (Fig 29). Plug extractor into a properly grounded outlet and turn extractor ON. Squeeze and hold trigger (A) to release cleaning solution. Gently press tool into fabric and slowly pull the tool over the fabric (Fig. 30). Let go of trigger and pull tool over same area to pick up dirty solution without putting down more solution. Continue using dry strokes until you see only a little solution coming up through the tool. Do not make the upholstery too wet! Use no more than two strokes while releasing solution. Always follow with dry strokes - the more the better. Listen carefully! When the motor sound changes (rises in pitch), the recovery tank need to be emptied. When water has reached the full line in the recovery tank, the extractor will NOT pick up dirty solution.

Allow upholstery to dry. Avoid using upholstery until it is dry. Increased air circulation (open doors, turn on fans, etc.) will help upholstery dry thoroughly to prevent the growth of mold or mildew.
