3.1 Fitting a brush or drive disc
Always ensure machine is unplugged before fitting or remo-
ving parts.
• Adjust handle to the fully upright position.
• Pull handle down until it rests on the floor and the brush
guard is raised.
• Fit the brush/drive disc onto the drive plate and rotate it
anti-clockwise until secure.
• Return machine to its normal upright position in readiness
for starting.
3.2 Adjusting the handle height
Select the most comfortable handle height using the adjust-
ment lever as previously described (see Controls) and lock
in position.
4 OPERATION
The normal movement of a machine in use is from side to
side across the floor. This is achieved automatically by rais-
ing or lowering the handle whilst it is engaged in the normal
working position.
Lowering the handle thereby increasing the pressure at the
rear of the brush/drive disc, moves the machine to the left.
Raising the handle increasing the pressure on the front of
the brush/drive disc moves the machine to the right.
Effective cleaning and polishing is achieved by moving the
machine in a backwards direction.
Do not leave the machine standing on a brush or pad when
not in use.
4.1 Starting the machine
• Fully unwind the supply cord from the handle and plug
into a convenient socket outlet. The neon indicator on the
handle should light showing that power is available.
• With the handle set at a convenient working height and
with both left and right hands on the handle, depress both
interlock buttons with the thumbs and squeeze both swi-
tch triggers to start the machine (Fig.3).
• Once the machine has started the interlock buttons should
be released.
• To stop the machine release both switch triggers.
4.2 Polishing
• Fit polishing brush or drive disc and pad suitable for the
speed of the machine and the surface to be polished. (see
Accessories).
• Apply polish to the floor in accordance with the manufa-
cturers instructions.
• Do not keep the machine rotating on one spot for more
than 3 seconds, as this could cause overheating and
damage the floor surface.
4.3 Scrubbing and Shampooing
• For scrubbing or shampooing the solution tank must be

fitted as described (see Fitting the solution tank).
• Fit a brush or drive disc and pad suitable for the surface
to be cleaned. (see Accessories).
• WARNING - This appliance has been designed for use
with the brushes specified by the manufacturer. The fitting
of other brushes may affect its safety.
• Fill the solution tank with water and an appropriate mea-
sure of detergent.
• IMPORTANT - Use only cleaning agents suitable for auto-
matic machines i.e. low foaming, and follow the chemical
manufactuers' directions regarding use, handling, disposal
and health and safety provisions.
• Before starting the machine release a liberal amount of
cleaning solution from the tank to the floor. The flow of
solution from the tank is controlled by moving the left
hand lever. Releasing the lever stops the flow.
• Proceed to operate the machine in the normal manner,
releasing more cleaning solution from time to time as
required.
• Do not keep the machine rotating on one spot for more
than 3 seconds, as this could cause overheating and
damage the floor surface.
• Dirty water should not be allowed to accumulate on the
floor, it should be removed to prevent dirt from settling.
We suggest using a suction dryer for this purpose.
• When scrubbing/shampooing is complete, unplug the
machine from the power supply, empty the solution tank
and clean and dry the machine.
• IMPORTANT - Dispose of unused cleaning solution in
accordance with the manufacturer's directions.
4.4 Fitting the solution tank
NOTE - The solution tank is supplied as an accessory item,
complete with attachments and fitting instructions.
• Move the handle to the upright position and clamp the
tank support bracket to the handle tube in the specified
position (Fig.4). (Refer to instructions supplied with tank).
• Take the solution tank and pass the ring on the tank chain
over the left hand operating lever and locate the ring in
the inside slot on the top of the lever. Rest the solution
tank on the support bracket with the handle tube in the
groove on the back of the tank.
• To secure the tank in position, engage the locking bar on
the back of the tank.
• Adjust the length of the chain by means of the screw and
nut adjuster to ensure there is no tension on the chain
when the flow control lever is not being used.
• Take the plastic tube supplied and push rigid end of tube
into the connector on the underside of the solution tank,
and the other end onto the tube at the rear of the motor
housing. The tank connector is of the sealed lock-in type
once the tube is connected. To release press down on the
orange collar of the connector with the finger tips and pull
out tube.
4.5 Removing the solution tank
• Pull off plastic tube from machine base.
• Raise locking bar on back of tank.
• Lift off tank and detach chain ring from lever.
