ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for cleaning, waxing, polishing and otherwise treating the surface of a floor, including such floors as wood, tile, vinyl, concrete and the like is provided. The apparatus includes a carriage or frame with a handle for guiding and maneuvering. Attached to the carriage are several containers for dispensing several selected types of fluids or solutions to the floor where a reciprocating scrubber, such as steel wool or a buffing pad operates with the solutions to effectively clean, strip, wax or polish the floor surface. In addition, there is a vacuum means which removes and carries away any excess liquid, solution or dirty cleaning fluids from the floor surface. According to one embodiment of the apparatus, the location at which the vacuum is applied to the floor surface may be selectively changed from the rear of the machine to the front of the machine such that when the front of the machine is moved up against a wall or other obstruction, the vacuum can be applied to the front of the machine to more effectively remove any such liquids.
