IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS!

When using an electrical appliance, always follow

basic precautions, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or

 

injury

Use indoors only.

This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identi-
cal replacement parts. See instructions for servicing of 

insulated appliance under “Service”.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children. Do not allow this appliance to be used as a toy or to
run unattended at any time.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, feet and all parts of body away

from openings and other moving parts. Do not operate polisher in

bare feet or when wearing open toe shoes or sandals.
Do not use with flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline
or use in areas where they may be present.
When using chemicals with this machine, be certain area is well

ventilated.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions for all chemicals used with this
machine. Do not exceed recommended mixing ratios.
Use only commercially available floor cleaners and waxes intended

for machine application.

Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening

blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, or anything that may reduce air

flow.

Unplug the cord from outlet when not in use or when taking off or

putting on brushes or pads. Be sure handle is in upright position
before attaching or removing plug from outlet.
Always disconnect cord from electrical outlet before servicing the
polisher.

Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not

the cord. Never handle plug or appliance with wet hands.

Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on

cord or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run
appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

The use of an extension cord is not recommended. If an extension
cord is absolutely necessary, use one with an electrical rating equal

or greater than the voltage and amperes specified on the data plate

located on the wheel cover.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working

as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped

into water, take it to a Hoover Factory Service Center or Authorized
Hoover Warranty Service Dealer (Depot).
Use appliance for its intended use as described in this owner’s
manual. Use only attachments recommended by The Hoover
Company; others may cause hazards.
