Overheat protection
On
When the tool is overheated, the tool stops automati-
cally, and the battery indicator blinks about 60 seconds.
In this situation, let the tool cool down before turning the
tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity becomes low, the tool stops
automatically. If the product does not operate even
when the switches are operated, remove the batteries
from the tool and charge the batteries.

WARNING:
Do not use for a long time while
the float is at work. Using the cleaner with its float at
work for a long time can cause overheat, resulting in
the cleaner deformation.
WARNING:
Do not pick up foam or soapy
liquid. Picking up foam or soapy liquid can cause
foam to come out of air exit before the float works.
Continuing to using in this condition may cause an
electric shock and breakage of the cleaner.
Auto-suction stop works only when using with the float
and float cage.
The cleaner has a float mechanism that prevents water
from immersing into the motor when picking up more
than a certain amount of water. When the tank is full
and the cleaner no longer picks up water, switch off the
cleaner and empty the tank.
Locking or unlocking the caster

Locking the caster is convenient when storing the cleaner,
stopping the work on the way and keeping the cleaner still.
To operate the stopper, move it by hand.
To lock the caster with a stopper, lower the stopper
lever and the caster no longer will rotate. To release the
caster from the locked position, raise the stopper lever.
NOTE: When moving the cleaner, make sure that
the caster is unlocked. Moving the cleaner with the
caster in the locked position may cause damage to
the caster.
Carriage handle
When carrying the cleaner, carry it by holding the han-
dle on the head. The handle is retractable at the head
when not in use.
