    Abstract: An accessory tool (10T, 110T) for an extraction cleaner (12, 122, 220) having an accessory hose (13), a fluid delivery system (30), and a fluid recovery system (18) includes a lens (100, 300), a tool body (10, 110), a spray tip (550, 650), and a cleanout assembly (60, 160). The tool body (10, 110) is connectable to the fluid delivery system (30) and the fluid recovery system (18) via the accessory hose (13). The lens (100, 300) couples to the tool body (10, 110) to form a suction nozzle volume (10V, 110V) therebetween. The tool body (10, 110) defines a fluid channel (62, 162) opposite the lens (100, 300). The spray tip (550, 650) dispenses a cleaning fluid (34) from the fluid delivery system (30) onto a surface (11) during a spray cycle of the extraction cleaner (12, 122, 220). The cleanout assembly (60, 160) selectively diverts the cleaning fluid (34) from the spray tip (550, 650) and into the suction nozzle volume (10V, 110V) via the fluid channel (62, 162) during a clean out cycle of the extraction cleaner (12, 122, 220) to thereby clean the lens (100, 300) and the accessory hose (13).
