Abstract
A brush attachment for a rotary carpet cleaning machine may have interchangeable heads. The brush attachment may also be used on extraction machines to provide both carpet brushing and extraction simultaneously. The interchangeable heads may be used (for example, more firm heads, or more soft heads) to provide different cleaning conditions, depending on the surface to be brushed. Springs may be provided with the brush attachment to permit the attachment to float on the machine. In other words, the springs may permit the brush attachment surfaces to be angled relative to the cleaning face of the machine.
