Attaching a mop pad to a Shark vacuum, specifically models like the Shark VACMOP™, involves securing the cleaning pad to the base of the unit. Based on instructions for setting up the Shark VACMOP™, the process is straightforward.
Attaching the Mop Pad to Your Shark VACMOP™
To attach the mop pad to the bottom of your Shark VACMOP™, follow these steps, incorporating the details from the setup guidance:
- Ensure the main unit is ready for pad attachment. According to the setup video instructions ("Cordless Vacuum Mop | How to set up the Shark VACMOP™"), this includes an initial step of closing the lid on the device until it clicks shut, which precedes the pad attachment.
- Take a disposable or reusable mop pad.
- Align the pad with the bottom of the vac mop head.
- Attach the pad to the bottom of your vac mop. This usually involves pressing the pad onto the hook-and-loop (like Velcro) strips on the base of the mop head.
- As you attach the pad, make sure the dirt chamber is facing up and forward. This orientation helps ensure the pad is correctly positioned relative to the vacuum's dirt chamber.
- Ensure the pad is smooth and securely fastened across the entire base for even cleaning.
- These instructions are specific to models like the Shark VACMOP™ which have a dedicated pad attachment system on their base. Other Shark vacuum models may not have a mopping capability or use a different attachment method.
Properly attaching the mop pad ensures effective vacuuming into the dirt chamber and even distribution of cleaning solution across the floor during mopping.
