Hello! I'm new to the forum. I just inherited my aunt's Electrolux Polisher model B10. Can anyone tell me where to find the manual? I think I have all the brushes but I'm not sure which brush does what task? (sorry for the sideways potato quality pics)

Welcome Joan, that is a interesting machine. I have never seen one. I hope someone on here is able to help you.

Tell us show many brushes you have. 6? Three that are softer and three that are stiffer? The softer brushes are for polishing floors and the stiffer ones are for scrubbing vinyl floors. Never try to scrub hardwood floors. The Canadian polishers are so much fun to look at! Greg

thank you for the quick replies!!
I have everything in the picture that @blknblu posted in Reply #3 except the manual!
I have 2 sets of brushes - one is very stiff and one set is a bit softer.
I also have the lambs wool pads but they're not in great shape.
Thank you Greg, I had thought the stiffer brushes were for shampooing carpet.
I wasn't sure if the stiffer brushes would scratch the old tile floor I'd like to clean.
What would the cleaning steps be?
1. Scrub with the stiff brushes and soap and water to clean
2. Apply wax with soft pads or by hand
3. Polish with soft brushes
4. Finish with the lambs wool pads

Is this the correct way to polish a 1960's vinyl tile floor?

You got it! Have fun. Many hardware stores still sell one make or another of stripper. A rainy weekend project. Greg

What are the differences between the B10 and BX10?

Any chance of getting a copy of the manual? My family has a B10 as well. The other question is do new pads work, or is there a source for ones that do fit?
