I am not a big fan of Kirby Shampooers, but if you have one you are having problems with.... Try vacuuming out the machine itself.... I know it sounds weird, but in many cases that has actually helped.

Hi! Just noticed that you needed directions for the SUDS GUN...not the floor shampooer. SORRY!
You need to take the power nozzle off and attach the thing that looks like a little plastic cup with two hooks on it. This is the intake guard. Attach it to the front. Now remove the cloth bag and put the HOSE on the hole where the bag was. You'll have to line the arrow on the hose up with the notch on the Kirby and push the hose arm toward the Kirby until it pops on. If you need to, lube up the edges of the hole with a wee bit of vaseline or hand lotion. This is how you hook up the hose to use the shampoo gun. Change the hose back to the front to pick up the foam. You can change from the long handle to the short by pushing the "seatbelt" button at the bottom rear of the long handle to release it. Now you just push the metal part of the short handle down into the handle holder. It ,makes it less bulky.
