BEFORE FIRST USE AND TIPS
• The battery stick is not fully charged when packed in the carton. Charge the
battery in the unit for at least 6 hours before first use. See “Charging the Battery”.
•
Be sure the battery cover is snapped firmly in place before using the scrubber.
• Be sure wallmount charger is securely fastened on the wall before use.
CHARGING THE BATTERY - FIG.
WARNING:
When disconnecting the Scumbuster from the charger, be sure to unplug the
charger from the outlet first then disconnect the charger cord from the Scumbuster.
The tool can be left on charge for as long as you desire, a minimum charge of 6 hours is
required to recharge a completely discharged tool.
1. Remove battery cover on the Scumbuster. Plug in the Output cord of the Charger into the
socket in the back of the Scumbuster (See 6 & 7 in Fig. A).
2. While charging, the Charger may hum and feel warm to touch. This is normal.
3. If a battery does not charge properly:
• check the current at the outlet by plugging in a lamp or other appliance there to see
if it will work,
• see if the outlet is connected to a wall switch which controls the power,
• move the Charger and battery to a surrounding air temperature of +40°F (5°C) to
105°F (40°C).
4. The battery should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power to clean.
Typically, run time will be approximately 30 minutes, depending on use.
WARNING:
Do not attach/remove accessory when unit is running.
1. To connect an attachment, line up the triangular notch on the attachment over the triangular
shaft, push it on, and
snap twist clockwise quickly into place
. (Fig. B) The disc attachment
must always be used with a Scrub Pad attached.
2.
To remove an attachment, snap twist it quickly, then pull it off.
3. 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.
4. Because this Scrubber is powerful, you don’t have to apply excessive pressure while
operating. Use a circular motion on large areas.
5. You may rinse any attachments/accessories by dipping the Scrubber into a bucket of water
no more than 12 inches (30 cm) deep or running under a faucet. Do not leave immersed
for more than 5 minutes.
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 THE EXTENSION - FIG.
WARNING: Make sure connector and extension handle are securely attached before use.
1. Open the two halves of the connector and clamp it around the handle of the Scumbuster.
Make sure to match the groove of the connector (see 8 in Fig. C) up with the raised area of
the ScumBuster body (behind the on/off switch).
2. Lock the connector by sliding the clamp to the lock position.
3. Screw the extension handle into the connector.
TIPS ON CLEANING AGENTS
• 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.
• Always wear rubber gloves and protective eye wear (to avoid splatter) when using cleaners.
TIPS ON CARPET CLEANING
• Before cleaning your carpet, thoroughly vacuum the surface. The nap lifter can be used on
carpeted surfaces, prior to vacuuming, to loosen deep down dirt.

■
Do not charge a battery if it is wet or shows any evidence of corrosion.
■
Do not incinerate the battery. It can explode in a fire. A small leakage from the battery cell
may occur under extreme usage, charging, or temperature conditions. This does not
indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
(1) wash quickly with soap and water or (2) neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice
or vinegar, (3) if the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a
minimum of 10 minutes. Seek medical attention.
NOTE:
The liquid is a 20-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.
■
Do not use an extension cord. Plug the Charger directly into an electrical outlet.
■
Use the Charger only in a standard electrical outlet (120V/60Hz).
■

product with any other charger. Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to
recharge. (charger #5102970-03)

above 105°F (40°C).
■
Unplug the Charger when not in use and before cleaning or maintenance.
