order to avoid danger.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum articles such as drywall dust, cement powder,
detergent, gasoline, glass, needle, soot, wet dust, sewage, matchsticks and so on.
Do not forcibly bend, step on, or drag the hose. If the hose becomes damaged do not use it
with the vacuum cleaner. Contact your authorized dealer you bought the unit from for a
replacement instead.
During use of vacuuming do not block the suction inlet of the vacuum or it may burn up the
motor and void your warranty.
Cleaning the unit should only be done by a water dampened cloth rag.
Before using make sure the dust cup and filters are properly installed.
Before polishing, please check if there are granular hard objects under the floor waxing/polishing machine or
adhesive foreign matters on the polishing disc; otherwise, the floor waxing machine will be damaged and your
floors will be scratched. Once the floor is scratched, it can’t be recovered.
If it is necessary to install or replace the polishing piece before or during polishing, please power the unit off and
remove the power plug before doing so.
During use, if it feels like the machine has to much resistance during use, please stop the machine immediately
to check it and ensure that the fine polishing pad is dry. If the buffer/polisher/waxer turns off during use this
means the motor is working to high. Please check pads or remove or change pads to correct surface tension so
unit does not overwork and shut down during use.
For carpet cleaning us the vacuum nozzle with spinning brushroll. If you are using the
waxing/polishing/scrubbing head on carpet read the section in this manual on how to do that first or you may
void your warranty.
The unit cannot be operated on a damp or wet floors.
In order to get better polishing effect, please uniformly polish every square yard of floor space for more than one
minute.
It is strictly prohibited to clean the fine polishing seat with water to avoid degumming.
When using this floor waxing head for polishing, please constantly move on the floor surface.
Do not press heavily upon the machine during polishing or only polish in one place. Otherwise floor scratching
can occur which is permanent.

scrubbing cleaning jobs or fine polishing cleaning jobs.

16
NOTE – Cleaning Carpet. Use of the Prolux AllVac with waxing/polishing/scrubbing nozzle for
carpet cleaning is not intended for prolonged use. It can only be used for small jobs and spot cleaning.
To do so one pad and fine polishing seat must be totally removed and the Floor Polishing/Lint pad
must be added to the one remaining. In this manner it may be used for spot cleaning carpet and rugs.
If the unit powers off during use that means the motor has over worked and turned off to protect itself
and carpet cleaning must be stopped immediately or the warranty will become void.
Connecting the “Fine Polishing Seat” and the “Rough Polishing Nylon Brush” to the Unit.
Hold the above mentioned discs and make them align with the special section hole of the gear of the
waxing head. After being lined up, as shown in the image below press the discs until you hear a
clicking sound. If you need to remove the discs you just need to pry discs off in backwards order that
you put them on.

With the pads attached to the waxing/polishing/scrubbing nozzle it is now time to attach the nozzle to
the vacuum cleaner as shown in the image below. To do this align the elbow of the
waxing/polishing/scrubbing nozzle to the installation hole to the main body and insert down until you
hear a “click”. If you need to take off the waxing/polishing/scrubbing nozzle press on the locking
block release button and pull off.

NOTE – The Prolux AllVac in waxing/polishing/scrubbing mode is not designed to suck or
vacuum up water or liquids but only dry suction. When using the spraying application make
sure the suction of the vacuum is not turned on.
