Key Information You Should Know

• When immersing scrubber in water, do not cover the unit in more than 

1 foot of water. Do not leave the scrubber immersed for more than 
5 minutes.

• Use only with AA alkaline batteries.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

How to Operate Switch

1.  To operate, push the Switch in to turn on.  Press the Switch in again to turn off.  To 

avoid splatter from a Brush or Pad, turn the scrubber off while the attachment is still in 
contact with the surface.

2.  Because this scrubber is powerful, you don’t have to apply excessive pressure while 

operating. Use a circular motion on large areas.  

Important:  If some water leaks into the unit, it will not affect performance. However,
should the unit accidentally fall into water without the battery cap in place, shake out
loose liquid and allow to air dry overnight.

Attaching Accessories

Do not attach/remove accessory when unit is running.
1.  To connect an attachment, line up the shape of the end of the accessory with the shaft

and push it on,

(Fig. 2)

until it snaps in place.

2.  To remove an attachment, simply pull it off.

water no more than 12 inches (30 cm) deep or running under a faucet.  Do not leave 

immersed for more than 5 minutes.

Tips on Cleaning Agents

IMPORTANT:

The power scrubber has been designed for easy, powerful cleaning. If you

are uncertain about its use on a surface, test an attachment on a small inconspicuous area
before cleaning larger areas.

•  Always follow manufacturer’s recommendations when using a chemical cleaner such as  

sprays, foams, rub-on gels, liquid detergents, or bleach solutions.

•  Do not use with abrasive cleaners on any surface or in the unit.
•  Always wear rubber gloves and protective eye wear (to avoid splatter) when using irritating 

cleaners.

Follow directions on containers of all such products.

WARNING:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Remove the battery holder by pulling the ring as shown in 

Figure 1

. Insert four

fresh alkaline AA batteries making sure to match (+) and (-) terminals correctly
and reinstall the battery holder.  The battery holder assembly will only fit back into the
tool one way. If it does not seem to fit properly, don’t force it. Rotate it one half way 
around and try it again. Ensure that the battery holder is inserted all the way.

WARNING:

Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause 

injury or fire.

To reduce this risk:

•  Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
•  Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -), marked on the battery and

the equipment.

•  Do not short battery terminals.
•  Do not charge batteries.
•  Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of

the same brand and type.

•  Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes.
•  Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
•  Keep batteries out of reach of children.
•  Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months.
•  Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in

contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.  The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits.  So when transporting
individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated 
from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
