Carpet cleaner leaves streaks or lines on carpet after cleaning

Safety: Unplug before cleaning the brush head.

• Clean brushes: Remove the brush roll and wash off lint, hair, and residue. Replace if bristles are badly worn or deformed.
• Clean spray jets: Remove and clean the spray bar to ensure even spray across the width.
• Inspect squeegee: Replace warped or damaged squeegee strips that can leave water lines.
• Check wheels: Ensure wheels rotate freely and are not worn unevenly, which can tilt the nozzle.

Perform a test pass on a small area to confirm streaks are eliminated.
