I bought one at a Sears, it was a closecout floor display, so it had no box or instructions? They said it had never been used and was brand new with the full warrenty. It comes on just fine and has good suction but does not spray the cleaning solution at all? I have no book for trouble shooting so Wasn't sure what to do?

Hi Mike! To check the filter on the Floormate deluxe, remove the dirty water tank and pull up on tank lid to separate from the base. Check foam filter for debris, if filter has debris, rinse it with water. To prevent internal damage make sure you are using only the Hoover Floormate detergent. If the machine is still noisy and smells bad we recommend taking it in to a Hoover authorized service center. Follow the link to find the nearest service center to you. Hope this helps!

First make sure that you are getting suction from the bottom of the
machine. Most of the time the squeegee is worn out which does not allow
it to pick up the water like it use to. Turn over the machine and
inspect
the squeegee. If it looks worn or bent then it may be time to replace
it. You may also consider replacing the filter. These are the two most
common parts that wear out.
It seems to be a common problem with this series of floormate... some home quickfixes (a hassle, i kno) but put downward pressure while using the solution.... Check your warranty that came with it, and how long you purchased the floormate... Alot of vaccuums come with 30-90 warranties, I'd recommend having it checked out. That, or if u bought it recent enough,take it back... like i said, these models are unfortunately known to have this problem... Some people have ones that operate normally, but alot do not. >.<
