Key points for using a hand-free mop in a family living room

Ground pretreatment

Clear away debris: Use a broom or vacuum cleaner to clean up large particles such as dust, hair, and scraps of paper on the living room floor to prevent the spread of stains or clogging of the mop when mopping.

Dealing with stubborn stains: If there are stubborn stains such as oil stains or chewing gum on the floor, they should first be treated locally with a damp cloth or a special cleaner. Wait until the stains soften before mopping the floor.

Mop status check

Mop moisture: If the mop is in wet mopping mode, make sure the mop is fully soaked and wrung out until it is slightly damp to avoid excessive moisture remaining on the floor.

Component integrity: Check whether the mop rod, mop head, dehydration device and other components are installed firmly to prevent loosening or falling off during use.

Zonal cleaning

From the inside out: Start mopping the floor from the innermost part of the living room (such as the corner) and gradually move outward to avoid stepping on the cleaned area.

Linear dragging: Keep the mop stick at a 45° Angle to the ground and drag it in a straight line to avoid leaving stains due to back-and-forth dragging.

Overlapping coverage: Each time you drag, the mop head should overlap the previous dragging area by 10 to 15 centimeters to ensure there are no cleaning dead corners.

Force and frequency control

Gently press the mop: When mopping the floor, gently press the mop head to use the adsorption force of the mop cloth to remove stains, avoiding excessive force that may cause scratches on the floor.

Regularly clean the mop: After mopping 3 to 5 square meters, place the mop head in the clean water area for cleaning and dehydration to ensure the mop remains clean at all times.

Corner and furniture treatment

Rotate the mop head: By using the rotatable joint of the mop, adjust the Angle of the mop head to clean narrow areas such as corners and the bottom of furniture.

Gently lift the mop: When encountering obstacles (such as table legs or sofas), gently lift the mop stick over them to avoid damaging the mop stick by pulling hard.

High-efficiency dehydration

Vertical pressing: Insert the mop head vertically into the dehydration area, and start the dehydration device through the pedal or hand pressure rod to ensure that the mop is evenly stressed.

Multiple dehydration: If the mop is still relatively wet, you can repeat the dehydration operation 2 to 3 times until there is no obvious dripping from the mop and it only remains slightly damp.

Storage precautions

Ventilation and drying: After dehydration, place the mop head in a well-ventilated area to dry, avoiding direct sunlight that may cause fiber aging.

Upright storage: Place the mop upright in a corner or on a dedicated storage rack to prevent the mop from touching the ground and breeding bacteria.

Clean the mop bucket regularly

Empty the sewage: After each use, empty the dirty water in the sewage area and rinse the dewatering basket and the bucket wall with clean water to prevent dirt from remaining.

Disinfection treatment: Clean the mop bucket with diluted disinfectant (such as 84 disinfectant at a ratio of 1:100) every week to kill bacteria.

Mop replacement

Observe wear and tear: If the mop shows signs of pilling, thread shedding or reduced adhesion, it should be replaced with a new one in a timely manner.

Classified cleaning: When the mop can be disassembled for cleaning separately, it is recommended to hand wash it with neutral detergent to avoid fiber damage caused by machine washing.

Component inspection

Pedals and gears: Check monthly whether the pedals, gears and other components are loose or worn. If any abnormality is found, repair or replace them in time.

Sealing ring maintenance: If the mop bucket has a sealing ring, the dirt in the gaps of the sealing ring should be cleaned regularly to prevent water leakage.

Ground material adaptation

For wooden floors: After dehydration, the mop should be even drier to prevent water from seeping into the gaps and causing expansion.

For tiles/marble: The amount of cleaning liquid can be appropriately increased to enhance the decontamination power.

Carpet: Do not use disposable mops to prevent fibers from entangling the mop head.

Avoid overloading.

Single cleaning area: It is recommended that the single cleaning area does not exceed 50 square meters. If a larger area needs to be cleaned, it can be done in batches.

Hair treatment: If there are hairs entwined on the mop, they should be removed promptly with a comb or scissors to avoid affecting the dehydration effect.

Child and pet safety

Keep away from power sources: When using a mop, make sure the mop bucket is kept away from power sockets to prevent electric leakage.

Storage and placement: When the mop is not in use, it should be placed out of reach of children or pets to prevent accidental contact with the pedal and injury.

By following the above key points, using a hand-free mop in the family living room can achieve efficient cleaning and convenient maintenance, while extending the mop's service life and keeping the home environment clean and hygienic.
