Extraction cleaner

An extraction cleaner comprising:

• a base comprising:
• a frame,
• a door coupled to the frame, a bottom surface of the door defining at least a portion of an agitator cavity,
• at least one fluid dispensing nozzle coupled to the door, the at least one fluid dispensing nozzle being configured for distributing a cleaning fluid directly or indirectly onto a surface to be cleaned, and
• a suction nozzle removably coupled to the base, the suction nozzle defining a suction inlet configured to be disposed adjacent the surface to be cleaned;
• an upright body pivotally coupled to the base;
• an agitator disposed in the agitator cavity and configured for agitating the surface to be cleaned;
• a supply tank for storing the cleaning fluid;
• a recovery tank configured for receiving recovered fluid extracted from the surface to be cleaned by suction established at the suction inlet;
• and
• an auto-spray detector, the auto-spray detector comprising a floor contacting member configured to engage the surface to be cleaned, and being configured to pivot in response to movement of the base and engagement of the surface to be cleaned by the floor contacting member and configured to cause distribution of the cleaning fluid from the at least one fluid dispensing nozzle at a first flow rate when the base is moved in a forward direction and at a second, non-zero, flow rate when the base is moved in rearward direction.
