Quick Tool Application Guide TOOL LARGE RECTANGULAR BRUSH PRESSURE DIAL SETTING Low / Medium INSTRUCTIONS AND TOOL USES Use with clipped on doubled towel for overall cleaning. Use brush without towel for deck cleaning. Use the brush with a clipped on towel at low or medium pressure setting for wood and tile floors (not linoleum) and work quickly. You can mist the clipped on towel with your favorite natural cleaner when the floor is extra dirty.
Water Conditioning It is recommended to supply the Vapor Boss ES600 with clean low mineral content water (distilled water) to help prevent scale build-up. Even though the ES600 is engineered to minimize scale formation, scale development depends on the hardness of your water and the number of hours the equipment operates. Most tap water sources are full of minerals, which form scale during operation. It is this scale which could lead to early component failure.
