How This Machine Works - Windsor Chariot iGloss Burnisher CB20 Operating Instructions Manual

HOW THIS MACHINE WORKS

The Chariot is a battery powered, self propelled,
hard floor burnisher intended for commercial use.
The appliance spins a high-speed burnishing pad in
contact with the floor surface to produce a high
luster shine.
The machines primary systems are the burnishing
system, the dust control system and the operator
control system.
The function of the burnishing system is to spin a
high-speed burnishing pad in contact with a floor
surface that has had a burnishable floor finish
applied. The burnishing pad can be lowered to the
floor and raised by the operator, the operator can
also control the pad pressure by use of the control
knob. The burnishing pad will spin only when the
machine is directed to move by the operator.
The function of the dust control system is to collect
the dust that is created during the burnishing
process. It is normal for a portion of the floor finish to
be removed in the form of dust during the process.
While burnishing, air movement is created within the
burnishing head by the spinning pad. The dust that
is also created is entrained in the air stream and
transported to a filter bag where it is collected and
separated from the air stream. The filter bag can be
easily changed without releasing the collected dust.

The function of the operator control system is to
control the direction and speed of the machine. The
directional control system consists of the direction
control switch, throttle pedal, operator presence
pedal, speed control switch, drive reset switch,
emergency stop/brake switch, steering wheel, propel
controller, and drive wheel. The directional control
switch signals forward or reverse direction. The
controller interprets signals from the throttle pedal to
command the drive wheel to propel or slow the
machine. The drive reset switch is to make sure the
operator is on platform before machine will propel.
The operator presence pedal is to make sure the
operator keeps both feet safely on platform while
driving. The steering wheel points the drive wheel in
the direction desired by the operator. The parking
brake automatically engages when the operator
steps off the platform. The emergency stop/brake
can be used to hold the machine on slopes.
