IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE

3

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions must always be followed.

The use of the machine is
at your own risk. The manufacturer/supplier is not liable for any injury or damage caused by incorrect usage of
t

he machine. Always check the cleaning and maintenance instructions of your floor manufacturer.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

WARNING! The quality, condition, coating, texture, age and manufacturing technique of all floor surfaces vary. Therefore,

machines with rotating pads, including your SEBO DISCO, may damage some floor surfaces. Some types of hardwood floors, cushion
vinyl, cork and porous stone or tile are particularly vulnerable to damage by rotating brushes or pads. When possible, consult the mate-
rials supplied by your floor’s manufacturer for information on proper upkeep and cleaning. To ensure that your new SEBO DISCO is

compatible with your floor, please test the polisher on each type of flooring surface in a small inconspicuous area to determine
if any damage occurs. If damage occurs, stop using the polisher immediately!

WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury or damage:

SPECIAL SEBO PRODUCT FEATURES

4

Your SEBO DISCO ultra-high-speed suction polisher is a high quality, reliable, innovative product that has been
developed and made in Germany with the most modern technology. The 2,000 rpm disc speed combined with an
appropriate floor maintenance product creates a protective floor coating with a high gloss finish. By using the
floor polisher at regular intervals, it will protect your hard floors against cracks, dirt and dampness and will retain
the value and beauty of the surface. An important feature is its ability to “monitor” the resistance of the floor pad
against the floor, so that the proper height is consistently maintained. In addition, the machine has warning sys-
tems and automatic shut-off capabilities that are designed to alert the user to machine problems that, if ignored,
will damage the machine or diminish performance.

Your SEBO DISCO’S five most unique features are:

1. Automatic Pad Height Adjustment. The SEBO DISCO adjusts the floor pad automatically to the

appropriate floor height. The torque of the rotating floor pad is constantly measured ensuring optimal
performance on hard floor surfaces.

2. Rotating Swivel Neck. The 90º vertical and 180º horizontal turning swivel neck allows the SEBO DISCO to

move with ease around furniture and into tight spaces

3. Bumper Guards and Rolling Castors. The SEBO DISCO has two soft bumpers to protect your furniture

and walls against scratches and scuffing. The DISCO head glides on three rubber-coated castors that will not
mark your flooring. At the rear are two 360º flexible castors which are fixed on a solid steel shaft. The castor
in the center supports and stabilizes the head. The flexible castors along with the turning swivel neck assure
smooth maneuverability.

4. Stationary Use Protection. When the machine has its handle in the upright-locked position, it is

designed to disengage from the floor by raising the height of the floor pad. The pad will stop spinning. An
operating machine should not stand stationary on the floor for inappropriate periods of time. If the floor pad
should come in contact with carpet, the pad will raise from the floor and stop spinning.

5. Bag Full or Clog Warning – Auto Shut-Off. If the polisher or vacuum’s air flow pathway becomes

restricted due to a full bag or the existence of a clog, the red LED light located on top of the DISCO will
illuminate. If the user ignores this warning for approximately 30 seconds, the machine will shut off. The user
should turn the switch off, unplug the machine and immediately insert a new bag or remove the clog (to
remove a clog, refer to the Clog Removal section on page 8). If the user restarts the machine without hav-
ing solved the problem, the red LED light will again illuminate and the machine will shut off in 30 seconds.

The floor pad automatically adjusts

up or down for different hard floor

heights.

The swivel neck rotates

90º vertically and 180º

horizontally.

The upper and lower rubber

bumpers protect furniture and

walls, and the rotating rubber

castors move smoothly across

the floor.

LED warning light

display alerts user to a

full bag or clog.
