  • Page 7: Important Safety Instructions

    Do not operate this machine in flammable or explosive areas. This machine is designed solely for scrubbing dirt and dust in an indoor environment. Minuteman does not recommend using this machine in any other capacity. The following information below may cause a potential hazard to the operator and equipment.
  • Page 8 Do not smoke. Make sure the charger is turned off before disconnecting it from the machine. Charge the batteries in a well-ventilated area with the battery cover removed completely. Do not clean machine with a pressure washer. Authorized personnel must perform repairs and maintenance. Use Minuteman supplied replacement parts. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS...
  • Page 9: Inspection

    This machine is battery operated and designed to operate on 36 volts DC (3) 12-volt batteries. BATTERIES The recommended batteries are rated 210Ah (Minuteman P/N 956210). We do not recommend mixing AMP hour capacities. Any alternate battery sets can be used if they equal physical size and capacity.

  • Page 12: Lower Control Console

    LOWER CONTROL CONSOLE 1. REGULAR SCRUB MODE When the machine is running in this mode, the machine will perform all operations. This mode can be used for day-to-day tasks under normal conditions. When the operator sets the directional switch to forward and activates the accelerator handle, the solution pump will turn on, the brushes will turn on and be lowered to the floor, as well as the rear squeegee.
  • Page 13: Vacuum Only Mode

    will need additional time to emulsify grease and oils that are on the floor. When the operator sets the directional switch to either the forward or reverse position and activates the accelerator lever, the solution pump will turn on, the brushes will turn on and be lowered to the floor.
  • Page 14: Upper Control Console

    UPPER CONTROL CONSOLE EMPTY SOLUTION TANK INDICATOR Once the solution tank has become empty the battery gauge will blink a solid 9 LEDs at a constant interval to alert the driver that the solution tank needs to be filled. LOW BATTERY INDICATOR The battery gauge bar icon will be flashing to signal the operator that the machine is almost out of power.
  • Page 15: Operation Of Controls

    OPERATION OF CONTROLS POWER SAVE MODE The SCV is equipped with a power save feature to conserve battery power. If the key switch power is left ON and none of the controls are activated for a period of fifteen minutes, the SCV automatically goes into “power down mode”...
  • Page 16: Parking Brake

    Connect the batteries according to the battery connection diagram (see diagram). The recommended batteries are 210Ah (Minuteman P/N 956210). SCRUB DECK Minuteman offers two deck types (Cylindrical and Disc) to fit your specific needs. The SCV design is...
  • Page 17: Cylindrical Scrub Deck

    very dynamic wherein the decks are interchangeable in a matter of minutes whenever necessary (removal of four bolts, and two quick-connects). The cylindrical brush deck has four built-in spray jets to uniformly dispense cleaning solution on the floor and a wet sweeping debris tray to collect loose objects on the floor.
  • Page 18: Scrub Deck Shift

    SCRUB DECK SHIFT The SCV 2426 now incorporates the new side shift feature, which allows the scrub deck to move two inches to the right to allow users to get into tighter quarters such as under shelving or cleaning close to walls. The side shift is activated by a lighted three-position rocker switch located directly in front of the drivers seat, just below the steering wheel (See figure below).
  • Page 19: Installation Instructions

    When installing a cylindrical deck to a machine: 1. Install brushes after the deck has been mounted to avoid flat spots on the brushes. 2. Use a piece of cardboard underneath the deck to prevent scratches to the painted surface when sliding the deck under the machine.
  • Page 20: Interchanging Scrub Decks

    IMPORTANT NOTE WHEN INTERCHANGING SCRUB DECKS As previously mentioned, the scrub deck brush pressure is computer controlled. However, when interchanging the two types of decks, an additional step must be taken to ensure that the controller correctly compensates the pressure for the type of deck that is currently installed. Inside the main electrical box, beneath the seat there is an Orange/Violet jumper wire (shown disconnected in Figure 1) that may or may not be connected to the terminal block, depending on the type of scrub deck that was originally ordered with the machine.
  • Page 21: Side Squeegee

    SIDE SQUEEGEE The side squeegees (left and right) are attached to the scrub decks. These items channel the dirty solution to the rear squeegee, helping contain the water within the machine’s cleaning path. These squeegees are raised when the scrub deck is in the raised position. The side squeegees are pre-adjusted at the factory.
  • Page 22: Brush Changes On The Cylindrical Deck

    Brush Changes on the Cylindrical Deck In order to change the brushes on the cylindrical deck the side squeegee must be moved in order to access the brush doors. The cylindrical deck was designed so one can change the brushes without having to realign the side squeegees.
  • Page 23: Rear Squeegee

    REAR SQUEEGEE The rear squeegee is the main element that acts as the conduit that transfers the spent solution into the recovery tank. A daily maintenance check of this component is essential to have optimum machine performance. The rear squeegee assembly is equipped with a universal front blade that allows the operator the option to use a slotted and a non-slotted side for specific applications.
  • Page 24: Rear Squeegee Adjustment

    REAR SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT 1. Ensure that the scrubber is on a relatively flat surface. Turn on the key switch and select the Vacuum only mode. This lowers the squeegee to the floor and turns the vacuum motor on. 2. Move the scrubber one or two feet forward slowly while someone behind the machine checks the rear squeegee blade (item 1) for uniform deflection to the floor.
  • Page 25: Off-Aisle Wand (Optional)

    OFF-AISLE WAND (Optional) The SCV is equipped with a ready-to-use built-in telescoping off-aisle wand system for use in hard to reach areas. By turning the pump switch ON (located on the control console, see page 11 for illustration) the off-aisle wand is ready to use in seconds. The wand is also equipped with the patented flip-flop tool that allows the operator to switch from scrub brush to squeegee tool by just rotating the tool end.
  • Page 26: The Scv Rider

    The SCV has four available scrub head types and sizes to fit specific applications. Please contact your Minuteman representative for specific recommendations for the correct scrub head type, size, and brush type and chemical applications.
  • Page 27 4. Determine the direction you need to travel by selecting forward or reverse on the Directional Switch. Vary the pressure exerted on the accelerator pedal to propel the machine at the desired speed. 5. Stepping on the Accelerator Pedal turns on the Transport, Brushes, Water Flow, Vacuum and lowers the Rear Squeegee accordingly to the Mode selected.
  • Page 28 sure to tightly secure the Stopper plug and cleanout cap before continuing to operate the scrubber. 17. Refill the solution tank and continue scrubbing until the job is done or when the machine runs out of power. 18. The battery gauge bar icon will flash to signal the operator that the machine is almost out of power.
  • Page 29: Maintenance Schedule

    Filter Clean Hopper on Cylindrical System • Have Minuteman check the vacuum motor carbon motor brushes once a year or after 300 operating hours. The brush motor carbon brushes should be checked every 500 hours or once a year. NOTE: Refer to the Service Manual for more detail on maintenance and service repairs.
