Polishing and buffing floors

Floors waxed with solvent-base wax may be polished and buffed with the floor machine.

1.Be sure wax is thoroughly dry before polishing. This usually takes 20-30 min- utes but may take longer in damp weather.

2.Use power scrub and cleaning brushes to polish floor. Press handle release and start by lowering handle. Guide the floor machine in straight lines or with the grain of the wood.

3.A double coat of wax will give floors more protection. Let wax dry thoroughly and polish after each application.

To achieve a high luster finish

1.Attach felt buffing pads over power scrub and cleaning brushes using fas- teners. Polish to a soft shine by guiding the floor machine in straight line or with the grain of wood. If more shine is desired proceed to Step 2.

2.Remove felt buffing pads and attach high luster pads (available at additional cost). Once again, guide the handle in straight lines or with the grain of the wood to achieve a high luster finish.

To keep floors bright and shiny

The floor should be buffed frequently to restore sheen and remove scratches and marks. This lengthens the time between waxings. Before buffing, use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt and a damp cloth to remove sticky parti- cles. Stubborn spots, such as black heel marks, can be removed by rubbing gen- tly with very fine steel wool dampened with wax.

If traffic areas need to be rewaxed and polished, and a solvent-base wax has been used on the floor, apply wax only to these areas then buff the entire floor.

3. Maintenance

Familiarize yourself with these home maintenance tasks as proper use and care of your appliance will ensure con- tinued cleaning effectiveness.

Splash guard

Wipe splash guard with dry cleaning fluid or liquid soap to remove wax and dirt after each use.

Floor machine base

Remove brushes and dry bottom of floor machine with a paper towel or cloth before storing.

Brushes

The brushes need to be washed in warm water and synthetic detergent to remove wax. Rinse well. Shake to remove excess water. To dry, place on paper towels with brushes turned toward towels. Let brushes dry before reattach- ing. Wash heavy duty cleaning and waxing pads the same way as brushes; rinse, and shake to remove excess water.

Felt and high luster pads

(Available at additional cost)

The pads should be washed occasional- ly to remove wax. If floor machine does not glide easily when buffing floors, it may be due to an accumulation of wax on the pads.

Pads should be washed in the same way as brushes. Shake the lambs wool pads several times while drying to restore fluffiness.

Let pads dry thoroughly before re-using. The felt and high luster pads must be completely dry to polish floors effectively.

Storage

Wrap cord around cord storage hooks located near bottom and top of handle.

Store your floor machine in a cleaning closet or convenient place, ready for use. Hang it on the wall or remove brushes and store it with the handle in the upright position. Never store it on the brushes.
