Using my extractor!

[lunchboxmunchy]

Fellow geeks! I am in search of knowledge. I have a Mytee hot water extractor, however, I don't know if i'm using it right. I've tried to do some research and have proven unsuccessful. Anyone have any advice on to the proper way to use it with the best results and the best "additives" to use to help?

My "usage":
Fill machine with water
Turn on machine
Give a few minutes to warm the water
Use machine on upholstery
Follow with vacuuming to remove as much moisture as possible.

Are you sure the water is hot enough?

Make sure to prime the system, helps get the hot and ready faster. I don't really understand why you would need to vaccum considering the lift the machine has. Make sure you use the solution in one direction and follow with an additional extraction in the opposite direction.

I did forget to say. You can add products to your water (make sure it is a non-foaming agent), or you can pretreat the carpet (make sure it is a non-foaming agent). After you extract and air dry (fans or sun), make sure you protect the uphosltery/carpet with something like 303 fabric protectant 303 High Tech Fabric Guard 32oz (http://www.autogeek.net/32ozsize.html)
