With the Rug Doctor machine powered on and set to 'Tool' mode, begin cleaning the carpeted stairs. Hold the upholstery tool firmly against the carpet. Press the trigger on the tool to dispense the cleaning solution while simultaneously pulling the tool towards you. The tool features a scrubbing brush that will agitate the carpet fibers and help dislodge dirt and stains. After applying solution and scrubbing, make additional passes over the same area with the tool, but without pressing the trigger. This uses only the machine's powerful suction to remove as much moisture as possible from the carpet. Clean both the treads (horizontal surfaces) and the risers (vertical surfaces) of each stair.
