How This Machine Works

The Chariot® CV86 is a battery powered, self-
propelled, vacuum intended for commercial use. The
appliance vacuums debris and dirt from the floor and
collects it in the debris tray and disposable bag.
The machine's primary systems are the brush system,
vacuum system, and operator control system.
The function of the brush system is to brush the floor.
The brush system consists of two cylindrical type
brushes, brush motor, brush deck, side broom, side
broom motor and controls. The front brush turns
clockwise when viewed from the right side of the
machine. The rear brush turns counterclockwise. Both
brushes work to agitate the floor and to route the debris
up into the brush deck. The side broom rotates counter-
clockwise as viewed by the operator. The side broom
sweeps debris into the path of the brush deck.
The function of the vacuum system is to vacuum fine
dirt and debris into the vacuum bag, and large debris
into the debris tray. The vacuum system consists of the
debris tray, vacuum motor, vacuum filter and vacuum
bag. The debris tray captures the dirt off the floor as the
machine moves forward. The vacuum motor provides
suction to draw the fine dirt into the vacuum bag, and
the debris tray stores large debris.

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 drive
reset switch, throttle pedal, emergency stop switch,
steering wheel, propel controller, and drive wheel. The
directional control drive reset switch signals forward or
reverse direction and makes sure the operator is on
platform before machine will propel. The controller
interprets signals from the throttle pedal to command
the drive wheel to propel or slow the machine. The
steering wheel points the drive wheel in the direction
desired by the operator. The brake automatically
engages when the operator steps off the platform, turns
the key off, or engages the emergency stop switch.
NOTE: Impact to machine may cause damage.
