head and remove the drive backs, and abrasive discs
or pads. Wipe over the machine with a damp cloth.

4.4 Scrubbing and stripping
•
Fit brushes or drive discs and pads suitable for the
surface to be cleaned.
•
Fill the solution tank with clean water and an
appropriate measure of detergent.
•
Before starting the machine release a liberal amount of
cleaning solution from the tank to the floor. The flow of
solution from the tank is controlled by lifting the left
hand lever. Releasing the lever stops the flow.
•
Proceed to operate the machine in the normal manner,
releasing more cleaning solution from time to time as
required.
•
Dirty water should not be allowed to accumulate on the
floor; it should be removed to prevent dirt from settling.
We suggest using a wet & dry vacuum for this
purpose.
•
When scrubbing/stripping is complete, unplug the
machine from the power supply, empty the solution
tank and clean and dry the machine.

Fit drive discs and pads suitable for the surface to be
polished.

Ensure the floor is clean and dry.
•
Walk slowly behind the machine, overlapping each
pass to ensure an even finish.
•
Do not keep the machine rotating on one spot for more
than 10-15 seconds, as this could cause overheating
and damage the floor surface.

Should the machine start to vibrate, or resist the
buffing action on the floor, check the cleanliness of the
pads. When dirty on one side the pad may be
reversed.
