MOVEMENT. THIS OCCURRENCE CAN
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
3) Remove the threaded knobs from the fixed section
of the operator handle. Install the adjustable section
into the fixed section with the handle grips facing
backwards toward the operator. FIGURE 2. Position
the adjustable section at a comfortable height.
Reinstall the threaded knobs and tighten until the
studs thrust up tight against the adjustable handle
section.
The ergonomic design considerations of the
adjustable section of the operator handle will
only function if the handle grips are installed
facing backwards (toward) the operator.
Installing the adjustable section of the
operator handle with the handle grips facing
forward (away) from the operator will
decrease machine control and productivity.
INSTALLING THE ADJUSTABLE SECTION
OF THE OPERATOR HANDLE WITH THE
HANDLE GRIPS FACING FORWARD (AWAY)
FROM THE OPERATOR WILL NOT ALLOW
THE THREADED STUDS TO PROPERLY
LOCATE WITHIN THE SLOTS OF THE
ADJUSTABLE HANDLE. THE SLOT ENDS
FORM INTEGRAL STOPS FOR THE
THREADED STUDS TO THRUST AGAINST. A
PROPER STUD/SLOT CONFIGURATION
WILL PREVENT THE ADJUSTABLE HANDLE
FROM INADVERTENTLY SEPARATING
FROM THE FIXED SECTION WHEN
TRAVERSING AN INCLINE SUCH AS A
STAIRWAY. INADVERTENT SEPARATION
OF THE ADJUSTABLE HANDLE SECTION
CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

THEORY OF OPERATION.
The Bon Floor Stripper is designed to operate on the
principle of various blades and/or attachments oscillat-
ing with a random orbital movement to remove a wide
variety of covering materials from work surfaces.
Various types of multi-accessory blades and/or
accessory attachments are secured to the exciter
plate located on the bottom of the machine. The spe-
cific
type of blade and/or accessory attachment utilized
directly affects the type of material removed, the
material removal rate and the resulting smoothness of
the work surface.
The coverings removal process is directly controlled
by these conditions:
1) The use of a suitable mechanism (blade or
accessory attachment) of proper design and
configuration to scrape against the work surface and
remove material while delivering an acceptable ser-
vice life.
2) Sufficient static weight supporting the blade or
accessory attachment to allow it to effectively
penetrate and remove the covering material.
