The best way to maintain a machine is by using it rightly. The tool should only serve its purpose. Using the device for a wrong purpose reduces its lifespan. In this article, I am going to show you how to use Oreck Orbiter.
Tip 1: Attach the Drive Pad Holder Properly
The machine is not well fitted with the brush once you buy it. You attach it for you to start cleaning. Lay the floor machine on its back with the handle facing on the floor. Place the holder over the brush holder on the device. Make sure the brush is tightly held on the machine. Always make sure the machine motor is switched off.
If you would like to remove the brush from the machine to clean it or to replace it. Lay the device on its back and pull off the brush from the round holder. Do it politely to avoid damaging the holder pan.

Orbiter machine has motor bearings that need to be periodically lubricated. Oil the bearings with light oil at the pivot points from the bondage to the housing. The tool should be serviced by authorized service providers or experts.
Tip 3: Clean the Dirt Area on Your Floor

Move it over the dirt areas. You can go over a dirt area as many times as you want until you are satisfied.

It is advisable to put on shoes when using the machine. Test the device when you buy it to ascertain if it is in excellent condition.
Tip 4: Avoid Common Problems that May Arise while Cleaning Your Floor
- The Machine does not run. It is either you have not plugged it into the socket correctly or there is no electricity in the wall outlet. Make sure the cleaner is decisively plugged into the wall outlet. If there is no source of power, check the outlet fuse and the circuit breaker. If the fuse is worn out, replace it.
- If the floor cleaner bounces. – It is either the brush or the pad holder is not appropriate in its place. If you use the floor machine on a surface without dry shampoo or wet shampoo, it is likely to bounce. In case the brush is not well detached on the round pad, fix it properly. Use the necessary shampoo either dry or wet when cleaning.
Different floors have different cleaning procedures.

In order to clean a hard floor, use All Purpose Concentrated Cleaner. It will enable the machine to remove all the grease, oil, food and grime on the floor. The effectiveness of the machine depends on the concentration of the cleaning agent and ferociousness of the brushes.
