Operation
Switching on and off
The machine is started via a foot sensor button or hand sensor but-
ton, and switches off automatically via a time relay after approx. 40
seconds, if the sensor button is not activated again, or for models
with pushbutton on the rod, the power circuit is interrupted at the
moment that the pushbutton on the rod is released.
Cleaning shoes and boots
When using, strictly ensure that you are standing in front of the
machine in a manner that is stable and so that you cannot slip.
The closed shoes or boots to be cleaned must only be cleaned when
they are on the foot of the user of the machine. Use with untied
shoelaces or other loose parts on the shoe is prohibited, and in
addition to damaging the shoes, can also cause severe damage to
the machine.
Attention - danger of injury!
Cleaning leather / leather care
First, briefly brush off the edges of the shoe and the leather surface
on the middle, black, pre-cleaning brush. Attention - excessive pres-
sure on the brush can damage the leather. For models with polish
dispenser, carefully press the tip of the shoe against the polish
valve from below, until one or two drops of polish are applied on the
leather surface via the valve. Distribute this polish over the entire
shoe with the appropriate soft polishing brush (light brush for light
shoes, dark brush for dark shoes) and polish the leather smooth
through light pressure against the brushes. The leather becomes
smooth and ductile through the special polish. For models without
polish dispenser, polish (as described above), however without
polish. By slightly turning the shoe it is also possible to clean the
sides of the shoe.
Cleaning and care of the machine

Always unplug the power plug and thus disconnect the power sup-

microfiber cloth to clean the housing. Do not use cleaning agents or
household cleaners.

under the brushes. The mat can be taken out and is easy to empty,
