Steam Cleaning

Using Your

Handheld Steam Cleaner

NOTE: Before operating, make sure all desired accessories are connected and Boiler is filled with the correct amount of water (refer to Pages 6-9 for details).

1.For first-time use, remove protective plastic cover that is shipped on electrical plug. Plug power cord into a convenient 3-prong electrical outlet. Heating Indicator Light will illuminate to show that unit is receiving power and Boiler has begun to heat.

CAUTION: This unit uses a grounded (3-prong) electrical plug. Use only in properly installed 3-prong electrical outlets. Do not attempt to alter plug or circumvent this safety feature in any way.

2.After approximately 3 minutes, Heating Indicator Light will turn off. This indicates that Boiler is fully heated, and unit is ready to begin steaming.

NOTE: Heating Indicator Light may cycle off and on during use, accompanied by a slight temporary drop in steam pressure – this is a normal part of operation, as the Boiler works to maintain a steady optimal temperature.

3.Point Steam Aperture (and any connected accessories) towards surface you wish to steam, and press Steam Button. Hold Button down for a continuous flow of steam.

CAUTION: Always be sure that Steam Aperture and other accessories are pointed in a safe direction (away from yourself, other people, pets, and plants) before pressing Steam Button.

NOTE: When steaming any surface for the first time, it is recommended that you consult the manufacturer’s guidelines for material being steamed. For items in question, test steam on an inconspicuous area before proceeding.

4.Using a slight back-and-forth motion over the area you are steaming will enhance the cleaning process, as will scrubbing the area (if a Utility Brush is connected). Wipe steamed areas with a clean cloth to remove loosened dirt and grime.

CAUTION: Wiping an area while it is still wet is recommended, but use care when wiping surfaces such as metal that may still be hot.

5.To effectively kill bacteria and other microorganisms, hold Steam Aperture (and any connected accessories) approximately 1/2 inch from surface and press Steam Button. Keep Steam Button held and concentrate steam on the same spot for at least 5 seconds.

6.At its maximum capacity (6 oz. / 180 ml.), the Boiler will provide approximately 8 minutes of continuous steam. If you wish to continue steaming, refer to Refilling procedure on Page 10 to refill Boiler.

7.Once you are finished using your Handheld Steam Cleaner, immediately unplug power cord from electrical outlet. Refer to Storage & Care guidelines on Page 11 for proper cleaning and storage procedures.

MC1226 specifications

The McCulloch MC1226 is a versatile and robust chain saw designed for both amateur and professional users. It combines a powerful engine with advanced features to ensure maximum efficiency and performance for a wide range of cutting tasks.

One of the standout features of the MC1226 is its engine. Equipped with a 26 cc two-stroke engine, this chain saw provides ample power for cutting through various types of wood.

The lightweight nature of the MC1226, weighing in around 5.2 kg, makes it easy to handle and maneuver, reducing fatigue during extended use.

The Oregon chain delivers smooth and efficient cutting performance, making it an excellent choice for both trimming and heavy-duty jobs.

The chain saw also incorporates several technologies aimed at enhancing user experience and safety.

Furthermore, the MC1226 is equipped with an easy start system, which requires less force to pull the starter cord, making it more accessible for users of all experience levels.

Safety is a paramount concern, and the McCulloch MC1226 integrates several safety features, including a chain brake, which stops the chain instantly in the event of kickback. This important feature, along with the throttle lock, ensures safe operation while cutting.

Additionally, an ergonomic handle design provides a comfortable grip, reducing hand strain during use. The saw's vibration-dampening system minimizes vibrations, contributing to user comfort and allowing for more precise cutting.

In summary, the McCulloch MC1226 chain saw packs a punch with its powerful engine, efficient design, and user-friendly features.
