GUIDELINES FOR
OPERATION
• Your floor machine is a very sensitive, powerful
unit. When in operation, it should be guided
gradually and smoothly without sudden or
rough motions. You will want to practice with
your machine on a smooth surface first until you
have experience in operating it.
• For ease of operation, always keep the brush or
pad surface level, balanced, and flat on the floor
at all times.
• Always adjust the operating handle to a
comfortable height at which the brush or pad
surface is balanced before starting the machine.
(see “Handle Adjustment” Pg 4 ).
• Your floor machine will operate differently on
various surfaces. For example, there will be
much more resistance when the machine is used
with a brush on carpeted surfaced than when it
is used with a pad on a smooth surface.
• BEGIN OPERATING THE FLOOR MACHINE
WITH THE BRUSH OR PAD SURFACE
LEVEL, BALANCED AND FLAT ON THE
FLOOR.
• To move the machine to the right, slowly apply
slight upward pressure on the handle.
• To move the machine to the left, slowly apply
slight downward pressure on the handle.
• To move the machine forward or backward,
keep brush or pad flat on the floor and push or
pull machine in the desired direction.
DO NOT LET THE MACHINE REST ON THE
PAD OR BRUSH FO R AN E XTE NDE D PERIO D
OF TIME. This may alter the shape of the pad or
brush which may cause the machine to wobble.
CORD STORAGE
When not in use, loosely wind the power cord
around the cord storage hook on the handle shaft
and both of the handle grips, as shown.
CLEAN UP AND STORAGE
After being used, your floor machine can be wiped
clean with a soft, damp cloth and should be stored
in a clean, dry place.
