The product in detail
The Johnny Vac JV13LS is a compact 13 in single-disc machine for tight spaces. Its 190 rpm rotary action supports different permitted jobs depending on the pad or brush. An adjustable handle and 15 L solution tank help organize work in small areas, with separate equipment to recover liquids.

| Specification | Listed value or configuration |

| Current | 11.5 A |
| Power cord | 40' (12 m) |
Surfaces and compatibility
For scrubbing, maintenance or polishing explicitly permitted for the combination of floor, finish, machine, pad and chemical. Speed and orbital or rotary motion affect consumable selection.
The page associates 750 W and 1.5 HP in one row; these ratings are not directly equivalent. Confirm electrical power on the nameplate. Nominal working diameter is insufficient to order an arbitrary pad driver.
Preparation and use
- Identify the task and remove loose debris.
- With power disconnected, fit a pad driver, pad or brush of the correct size and attachment.
- Adjust the handle and inspect the cord, safety controls and work area.
- Test the specified speed and chemical on a small area; keep the machine moving as instructed.
- Recover solution by the planned method if the machine has no suction. Inspect the dry result.
Care and storage
Disconnect power before removing consumables. Clean pads, inspect the driver and dry parts. Store without compressing the brush or pad if instructed. A loaded pad can cause marks and uneven results.
Limits and things to check
A floor machine or burnisher does not necessarily have a recovery system. Pad colour alone does not establish compatibility; verify reference, abrasiveness and permitted speed.
Equipment, accessories and options
The page lists a 40 ft cord, 12 in nylon brush, 12 in polypropylene brush, 15 L tank and pad driver. Clarify driver dimensions relative to pads.
Practical questions
How do I check this reference suits my floor?
Identify flooring, finish and task, then check both product and flooring instructions. A hidden-area test should reproduce full application and drying. For equipment, also check tools or pads, dimensions and power supply.
Are all accessories and consumables included?
The page lists a 40 ft cord, 12 in nylon brush, 12 in polypropylene brush, 15 L tank and pad driver. Clarify driver dimensions relative to pads.
What information is still needed before purchasing?
Confirm nameplate power, weight, attachment fittings and applicable warranty.
Why might results differ from the listed output?
Figures describe different things: working path, theoretical or practical output, power and runtime by mode. Filling, emptying, charging, obstacles, consumable condition and technique influence actual work completed.
