Uses for your Floor Cleaner
The Floor Cleaner can be used on many types of surfaces such as ceramic, marble, linoleum, stone,
parquet etc. Be especially careful with parquet – older oak floors are very tough but on some newer
floors steam may cause the blocks to swell. Always take advice from the manufacturer of the floor
covering before proceeding to use steam. One useful point to note is that steam will cause animal
hairs, that have collected on floors and fabrics to roll into easily removable balls.
This attachment can also be used on automobiles interiors, RV’s, painted doors, walls, louvers etc.
IMPORTANT - When cleaning hard floors there may be a small residue of water that will ultimately
evaporate. If preferred, use a dry cloth attached to the Floor Cleaner (steamer turned off) and wipe
area dry.
We do not recommend using this product on self adhesive vinyl tiles.
Window/Tile Cleaner (28)
When cleaning exterior glass be careful not to pick
up grit particles on the rubber blade as this could
scratch the glass.
CAUTION - Antique glass and stained glass may be
brittle and can crack under extreme temperatures.
Do not use on glass when the temperature is below
32˚ F.
The Window/Tile Cleaner can be used fitted directly onto the Hose Handle or fitted to one or both
Extension Tubes, whichever is best for the job in hand.
As the attachment is moved down the window (mirror or tiles) and the Steam Release Button is
pressed, the rubber blade will clean away the dirt as it wipes the surface after the steam has been
applied. After you have completely finished cleaning, release the Steam Button and clean the surface
from top to bottom with the rubber blade only. Excess water from around the window sould be
removed with a dry cloth.
Steam will completely remove dust, film or greasy marks from windows, mirrors, tiles and patio doors.
It will remove soap and grease residues but cannot remove deposits of scale. To remove black marks
from grouting or difficult corners use the mini attachments, Jet Nozzle, Brush Nozzle or Scraper
Nozzle.
Upholstery Cleaner/Garment Steamer (29)
IMPORTANT – Some upholstery, fabrics and soft
furnishings have stain resistant treatments, which,
may be affected by steam cleaning. Try cleaning a
small area of material that is normally unseen, then
allow 24 hours before checking whether there have
been any unusual effects on the material. If so, DO
NOT CONTINUE. Check with your material supplier
for further advice. Do not allow the material to become soaked. You only require a small
amount of steam to clean, and soaking can leave water marks or cause bleed through linings
etc.
The Upholstery Cleaner can be used either with or without the Bonnet (32). For normal cleaning
purposes and for general use the Bonnet would be fitted. When removing creases from garments and
hanging drapes you can sometimes improve the appearance of the material by using the head without
the Bonnet attached. It is best to experiment to get the best finish for you.
This tool can also be used either fitted directly onto the Hose Handle or fitted to one or both Extension
Tubes. First select which is best for the task in hand and assemble together.
