This floor machine is designed for many
different floor cleaning applications. It is
important to select the correct brush or
floor pad depending upon the type of
cleaning operation you are doing.

best results use clean pads and change
them as they load up.

LOCK

the handle in the upright position.

hands, straddling the motor with your

far as it will go. It is now seated and

:

This floor machine is designed to move
from side to side. Begin operating at the
closest possible point to an electrical out-
let and work away from the outlet. This
