Operating Instructions

Inspection

Carefully unpack and inspect your burnisher for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly inspected before
shipment; any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should be notifi ed immediately.

Operation

Before starting, familiarize yourself with the machine and its controls (see "Machine Overview" and "Dashboard Control
Panel" diagrams). To turn the machine ON, do the following:
1. Make sure 20" high speed pad is used. Make sure the pad is installed on the machine by following instructions
under "Pad Installation."
2. Make sure that no battery charger is plugged into the recharge port.
3. Lift the red emergency disconnect button so it is in the up position.
4. Lower the pad driver assembly by pushing the pedal slightly outward on the machine (unlock it), and then release it
slowly.
5. Turn the power switch to the ON position. The pad driver will then slowly adjust itself to the fl oor. Move forward in a
straight line, check the reading on the Operating Range Meter and make sure you are in the Green Zone.
6. Adjust the pad pressure as needed by turning the knob accordingly. (See Pad Pressure Adjustments.)

After Use

To raise the pad driver, push down until the pedal arm engages into the pedal catch. Turn machine off by turning the
key switch on the control panel. Machine can be cleaned with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Batteries should be
charged after each use or when the battery condition meter shows a low charge. Once the battery charger reads 0
amps, the batteries are recharged. This should take approximately 8 hours if the batteries are completely discharged.

Maintenance

Periodically remove batteries from machine. Clean the batteries and battery tray with a solution of baking soda and
water. Check all battery cables and wiring for signs of damage and wear. Replace as needed. Grease front wheel and
rear caster zerks once a month for best operation.

Floor Seal Strip

When the fl oor seal strip show signs of excessive wear, seal should be replaced. The strip can be removed by loosening
the screw on the retainer strap until the seal can slide off of the pad shroud housing. To install new seal, slip the retainer
strap over the new seal strip and pad shroud. Make sure the seal is seated equally around the perimeter and the holes
on the fl oor seal are oriented towards the back portion of the shroud.
