Introduction - Windsor Lighting 1.022-322.0 Operator Instructions Manual

INTRODUCTION

This propane floor care equipment is manufactured in two basic concepts: the burnisher and the floor stripper.
Both of these designs are truly PORTABLE equipment. Propane burnishers are best defined as ultra high speed
burnishers with the staying power to produce superior high gloss floor surfaces. Upon contact with the floor, the
burnisher should always be kept moving. The speed at which you walk will determine the results that you will
obtain. Slower speeds create more heat and therefore more shine. WINDSOR recommends a moderate pace for
best results and safe operation. NEVER RUN WITH THE BURNISHER!! While a credible shine will still result, the
danger of trying to stop the machine in an emergency situation is unacceptable. When buffing, avoid loose tile,
electric outlets, door thresholds and any object which may come in contact with the pad other than the floor itself.
REMEMBER, the pad is turning very rapidly.
Proper care and maintenance will protect your investment and keep your machine serving you for many years to
come. It is essential that these issues are closely followed:
Overfilling the propane tank is the number one cause of problems with a propane machine. This can cause the
engine to run poorly or not at all. In addition, overfilling allows liquid propane to enter the fuel control system,
possibly ruining the lock off / regulator assembly. This voids the warranty on affected parts of the machine. To
avoid problems, read and understand fully, the section "Filling and Storing Propane Tanks."
OVERHEATING is a major cause of engine failure. Keep the cooling air bonnet filter clean. Protect your machine;
don't allow wax dust/lint to build up on the cooling fins of the engine cylinder(s). A good high pressure spray wash
directed at the fins when the engine is cold will prevent this from happening.
LOW OIL AND DIRTY OIL account for most of the other failures. It is recommended changing the oil on a regular
schedule, perhaps exceeding that which is found in the engine manufacturers' manual. Checking the oil daily,
before putting the machine to work, is a good habit to get into and could save you the downtime and expense of
replacing the engine due to oil starvation. AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE REPLACED THE
OIL SUPPLY BEFORE RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
