Please note:
Floor tools are subject to a certain amount of wear,
depending on the type of hard floors you have (e.g.
rough, rustic tiles). You must therefore check the
underside of the floor tool at regular intervals.
Worn undersides of floor tools may have sharp
edges that can damage delicate hard floors, such
as parquet or linoleum. The manufacturer does not
accept any responsibility for damage caused by
worn floor tools.
