Quick Start Guide
1. Assemble the Grout Groovytm (fig. C).
• Insert the top of the machine, (1) containing
the handle and trigger, into the bottom of the
machine (3). It will only go together one way.
• Insert the Phillips machine screw (2) into the
hole that is now aligned and tighten with the
screw driver provided in the parts package.
Just snug it - don’t over tighten!
2. Prepare the surface to be cleaned.
• Apply liquid soap or a mild household
cleaning solution to your grout.
• Work in small areas to avoid getting too much
water or cleaning solution on the floor at
once.
3. To use Grout Groovy
tm
(fig. A, pg 4), depress
the safety button on the main handle and
squeeze the on/off trigger.
• To turn the machine off release the on/off
trigger.
• Holding the machine with both hands, make sure the underside
of the machine is kept level and guide the machine at a constant
speed over the grout area moving forward and backward similar
to using a vacuum cleaner.
• There is no need to apply preasure. The nylon brush provides
plenty of scrubbing power.
4. For stubborn, dirty grout, repeat if necessary.
5. For corners and tight spaces use the detail corner prush (fig.
B, pg 4).
6. After grout is clean, mop or towel floor until dry.
