Using Your Vapor Steam Cleaner
Wood, Vinyl and Marble Floors
Use the large floor brush with a terry cloth attached. Move the brush across the floor as if you are
mopping. When the towel is soiled, you can turn the towel over or replace it with a clean towel. If you
are working on a very dirty area, you can move the brush over the area slowly, several times. If it is a
wood floor, move fast to avoid heat or moisture buildup in the wood. By cleaning with the towel over
the brush, you will not affect the shine on the floor.
To Strip Wax: Use rectangular brush for open areas; small nylon detail brush for corners or tight areas
- no towel, slow strokes. Work a small area at a time - remove the emulsified wax from the floor. When
all of the wax has been stripped, immediately clean the floor and brushes with water before residue has
a chance to harden on them. Go back over the stripped area with the rectangular brush with a towel to
remove any remaining residue before waxing.
To Clean Waxed Floors: Wrap clean towel around the rectangular brush, brush quickly. This will
cause the dirt to be removed.
Vinyl Floors: Do not allow heat to buildup in any kind of vinyl, since it can soften it enough to affect its
texture. Work fast on vinyl.
Tile Floors: Use a detail attachment with the small nylon detail brush attached to an extension. Have
the large floor brush with cloth attached ready as well. Clean the grout of the tile with the small nylon
detail brush. Remove the detail attachment and attach the large floor brush/ move the brush across
the floor to clean the tile and remove excess moisture and residue. For areas of tile that are very dirty,
remove the towel and agitate with the brush. Do not let the area dry before you wipe it up.
Walls
Use the large floor brush with a terry cloth towel depending on the surface area to be cleaned. For
painted surfaces, use the brush with a terry cloth attached to remove stains or spots. Be sure that the
paint is not a water-based paint that you are cleaning. The extreme temperature may damage the finish
or even remove the paint.
Ceilings
Use the large floor brush with a terry cloth towel attached. Clean painted ceilings as you would clean a
painted wall. If there is a heavy stain, you may expose the brush to get to an isolated area. Use caution
where water-based paint exists.
Wall Paper
Vinyl or Normal Wall Paper - Use two terry cloth towels with the large floor brush to prevent bristles
from poking their way through the towel while you are cleaning the wall. Use smooth, rapid strokes.
Note: Work quickly while you are cleaning any kind of wall paper.
Window, Glass Surfaces and Mirrors
Use the glass and tile squeegee. Work with the vapor jet down using the top to bottom movements.
Use the squeegee with the vapor off to clear the water from the glass. To do this without leaving
streaks, use lateral movements from the top to the bottom of the surface. When cleaning outside
windows, always avoid any sudden changes in temperature to prevent breakage or cracks.
