2 Preparing for use
2.1 Fitting the handle
1. Carefully remove the machine base and handle
from their respective packaging.
2. Check that the following items are present with
the base and remove them from their transit
position.
M8 x 70 Hex.Hd. bolt (3)
M8 Nyloc Hex. nut (3)
M8 Plain washer (6)
13mm A/F Spanner (2)
3. Take handle and check that 'O' rings on either
side of the knuckle pivot are seated in their
grooves, and that the datum mark on the pivot
gear is aligned with the handle tube. If this is not
the case, raise the handle adjustment lever and
rotate the pivot gear until the datum mark is in
line with the handle tube, and release the
adjustment lever.
4. With the handle held vertically and cable winder
to the rear, lower pivot between the raised flanges
on the machine base.
5. Align holes in pivot with those on base and fit the
three M8 bolts, washers and nuts, and tighten
using the spanners supplied (Fig.1).
6. Connect supply lead from handle to socket on
motor housing.
3 Controls
The operating controls for all models are located on
the handle (Fig. 2).
1 - Switch trigger, left hand
Used to switch motor ON and OFF. Can only be
operated with handle in working position, and if left
hand interlock button (2) has previously been
depressed.
2 - Interlock button, left hand
This must be depressed initially to enable left hand
switch trigger to switch motor on.
3 - Switch trigger, right hand
Used to switch motor ON and OFF. Can only be
operated with handle in working position, and if
right hand interlock button (4) has previously been
depressed.
4 - Interlock button, right hand
This must be depressed initially to enable right
hand switch trigger to switch motor on.
5 - Handle adjustment lever
Used to adjust handle to comfortable working
height. Note for safety reasons the machine
cannot be operated unless the handle is moved to
a working height.
6 - Solution feed lever
Operates flow valve in solution tank (if fitted).
- Pull lever to release solution.
- Release lever to stop flow.
7 - Socket connector
Connection point for vacuum unit lead.
Drive plate
Attachment point for brush or drive disc and pad.
Cable winder
Used to hold supply cord in place on handle when
machine is not in use. Can be turned to enable
quick release of cord.
Motor overload cut-out
Protects motor from overload and possible
damage. The cut-out will reset automatically when
cooled sufficiently, enabling the motor to restart.
Neon indicator (on handle)
Lights when the machine is connected to the
power supply.
3.1 Fitting a brush or drive disc
Always ensure machine is unplugged before fitting or
removing parts.
• Adjust handle to the fully upright position.
• Pull handle down until it rests on the floor and the
brush guard is raised.
• Fit the brush/drive disc onto the drive plate and
rotate it anti-clockwise until secure.
• Return machine to its normal upright position in
readiness for starting.
3.2 Adjusting the handle height
Select the most comfortable handle height using the
adjustment lever as previously described (see
Controls) and lock in position.
4 Operation
The normal movement of a machine in use is from
side to side across the floor. This is achieved
automatically by raising or lowering the handle whilst
it is engaged in the normal working position.
Lowering the handle thereby increasing the pressure
at the rear of the brush/drive disc, moves the
machine to the left. Raising the handle increasing the
pressure on the front of the brush/drive disc moves
the machine to the right.
Effective cleaning and polishing is achieved by
moving the machine in a backwards direction.
Do not leave the machine standing on a brush or pad
when not in use.
4.1 Starting the machine
• Fully unwind the supply cord from the handle and
plug into a convenient socket outlet. The neon
indicator on the handle should light showing that
power is available.
• With the handle set at a convenient working height
and with both left and right hands on the handle,
depress both interlock buttons with the thumbs and
squeeze both switch triggers to start the machine
(Fig.3).
