HAWK Floor Machine

Frequently Asked Questions
To turn on a HAWK floor machine, ensure it is plugged into a grounded outlet, lower the handle to the operating position, and engage the dual-safety interlock triggers located on the handle grips.
Control the movement by slightly raising or lowering the handle: lifting the handle causes the machine to move left, while lowering the handle causes it to move right; a neutral position keeps it still.
Yes, HAWK floor machines are versatile and can be used for various tasks, including stripping, scrubbing, buffing, and polishing, by simply changing the pad driver or brush attachment.
You should only use manufacturer-approved weights when additional pressure is necessary for heavy-duty tasks like aggressive floor stripping or sanding, but avoid using them for standard scrubbing or buffing to prevent motor strain.
Perform daily maintenance by wiping down the machine and inspecting the cord for damage, and conduct regular checks of brushes or pads for wear, following the specific lubrication schedule in the operator's manual.
Generally, wear-and-tear items such as brushes, pads, pad drivers, power cords, and light bulbs are not covered by the standard manufacturer's warranty.
