• Choose a pad for the appropriate application. Place the pad in front of the machine on the floor and
center the driver plate on the pad.
For more information about our pads see page 13.
For the attachment of the HOS brush see page 9.
• To place the driver plate on the pad, position the handle in a lower position (Fig. 10). Lift the
machine until the wheels slightly come off the ground and push slowly forward until the machine
base tilts towards the ground. (Figure 11).

WARNING: Make sure you put the wheels back on the ground in time, to avoid the base from
falling on the ground. This might cause damage!
Now you are able to control the base and place it carefully on the pad (Fig. 12).
NOTE: It's not necessary to center the pad exactly. Visual judgment is enough.
• Take the power cable that comes with the machine; connect it to its counterpart which is located
on the upper handle. USA version power cables simply push and twist lock together, clockwise.
European power cables connect by holding back the lid of the coupler with your thumb and
pressing the plug and female coupler together until they are firmly linked. Firmly insert so that the
black rubber ring disappears into the female coupler. You can now plug the power cord plug into
the outlet.
• IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE: Never plug the power cord into the outlet before you plug the
power cable to the Orbot!
• For priming the pump system for the first time, put the yellow lever, which is located on the left side
of the machine in a vertical position (see Figure 14, p.5). Hold down the black spray button on the
right end of the handle (Fig. 13) for about 30 seconds until the pump is working at its full capacity.
