CONTROLS - TRACTION 1. SOLUTION CONTROL KNOB Controls solution flow to scrub deck. To increase flow, rotate knob clockwise. To decrease flow, rotate knob counterclockwise. If the brush motor is turned off or the direction control lever is in neutral, the flow is automatically interrupted until the motor is turned on again.
9. SPEED CONTROL KNOB Controls the speed of the machine. To increase speed, rotate knob clockwise. To decrease speed, rotate knob counterclockwise. 10. BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR Indicates the charge level of the batteries. The meter display is divided into 10 vertical bars.
PRE-RUN MACHINE INSPECTION Do a pre-run inspection to find possible problems that could cause poor performance or lost time from breakdown. Follow the same procedure each time to avoid missing steps. NOTE: See maintenance section for pre-run machine inspection checklist items. STARTING MACHINE NOTE: Perform pre-run machine check before operating machine.
MACHINE OPERATION TO BEGIN SCRUBBING CAUTION When operating the machine around people, pay close attention for unexpected movement. Use extra caution around children. WARNING Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up. 1. Turn the machine power on. 2.
EMPTYING AND CLEANING TANKS 1. Park the machine next to a floor drain. Drain hoses are on the rear of the machine. 2. Turn the machine power off. SOLUTION TANK 1. Unhook the small drain hose from the retainer. Unscrew the T-handle plug enough to loosen it, then lower the hose in the direction of the drain.
MAINTENANCE BATTERIES The batteries provide the power to operate the machine. The batteries require regular maintenance to keep them operating at peak efficiency. The machine batteries will hold their charge for long periods of time, but they can only be charged a certain number of times.
CHECKING BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY Use a hydrometer to check the battery specific gravity. Battery Check CHECKING GRAVITY A. Hydrometer B. Battery NOTE: Do not take readings immediately after adding distilled water, if the water and acid are not thoroughly mixed, the reading may not be accurate.
MAINTENANCE 4. Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell. Before charging, add just enough distilled water to cover the plates. After charging is complete, add just enough distilled water to bring up the level to the indicator ring. If the water level is too high before charging, normal expansion rate of the electrolyte may cause an overflow.
SQUEEGEE BLADES The front squeegee blade allows solution to pass through channels in the blade into the squeegee assembly while maintaining vacuum to provide lift. The rear blade wipes the floor to a near dry condition. It is important the rear blade be in good condition to properly do its job.
MAINTENANCE TO ADJUST SQUEEGEE PITCH 1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Turn “ON” the key switch and vacuum switch. Lower the squeegee and drive forward at least 2 feet (60cm.). 2. With the squeegee down, stop the machine. Do not allow machine to roll back. FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing the machine, stop on level surface, turn off machine and remove key.
SERVICE SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE Check batteries after charging; add water if necessary Check pad wear to prevent buildup of chemicals Check linkages and connectors for wear and damage Check hoses for wear, blockages, or damage Clean squeegee; check for adjustment; inspect for wear Check handles, switches, knobs, domes, and gaskets for damage Clean out recovery tank...
