WARNING – Never attempt to use the machine at the top of an escalator

• Fully unwind the supply cord and plug into a convenient outlet

• Ensure that the escalator is moving away from the machine, reverse the direction of the

escalator if necessary

• Position the machine on the escalator such that the rest bar is situated just in front of the

wheels and sits on the non-moving comb of the escalator

• Switch on the vacuum motor, followed by the brush motor

• WARNING – Never start the machine without the brushes ﬁtted

running

water and allow drying.
