There are two methods of cleaning hard surface floors:

detergent and water solution.
2. Solvent or solvent cleaning wax method - used for wood and sealed
cork floors that may be damaged by water solutions.
Water method
Linoleum, asphalt, rubber, vinyl, masonry and stone floors may be
cleaned with a soap or detergent and water solution. Use the polisher to
scrub the floor.
Do not use the water cleaning method on wood or cork floors.
1. Vacuum floor to remove loose dirt and litter.
2. Attach brushes.
