Floor Scrubber &

Polisher on various floor types
DO NOT USE ON CARPET

Take care not to slip over when polishing floors,

they can become very slippery in the process.

Only use dedicated floor products; other 

inappropriate polishes and waxes may leave

the floor dangerously slippery. 

Do not leave the product operating in one area

for a prolonged period of time as this may

damage your floor. 

You may need a mop and bucket to clean and

prepare your hard floor, prior to polishing with

your floor polisher.

Cleaning hard floors with heavy soiling

• Use the brush heads to loosen dried-on dirt.
• Take care not to scratch the floor if hard dirt 

gets stuck to the brush heads.

Applying floor treatments

• Always read and follow manufacturer’s 

instructions for floor treatment products.

• Apply the treatment directly to the floor unless 

instructions indicate otherwise.

The recommended polish is Ewbank

Tips for polishing wax on hard floors

• Once the wax polish has dried on the floor  

use the blue buffing pads to polish.

• Keep the polishing head moving. Don’t stop in  

one place for a long time or it will spoil the 

finish. 

• Move at a speed of about 1 minute every 1m

2

and follow the diagram for an even finish 

(Fig.7).

• A glossy finish is not always possible; this 

depends on the wax or polish used and the 

type of floor. Sometimes several coats of 

polish will help to get a glossy finish.

Tips for removing old polish

• Carefully follow the instructions for your 

chosen floor polish remover.

• Use the white pads to scrub old polish from 

the floor.
