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. Lower the squeegee.
3. Release the parking brake.
4.
Press the one touch switch.
5. Drive machine forward to begin scrubbing.
NOTE: Shut machine off immediately if water or
foam is expelled from the machine.
6. Adjust the speed of the machine, solution flow
and scrub brush pressure as necessary.
NOTE: Once solution flow rate is set it is not
necessary to shut off solution when stopping
scrubbing. Solution flow is automatically shut off
when brush motors stop. When brush motors are
activated, flow automatically resumes.
TO STOP SCRUBBING
1. Release the directional control lever.
2. Press the one touch switch.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Raise the squeegee.
5.
Turn the machine power off.
DOUBLE SCRUB
Floors which are heavily soiled or have thick
accumulations of floor finish may not clean
sufficiently with one pass. In these cases it will be
necessary to double scrub.
To double scrub, make the first pass over the
surface being cleaned with the squeegee up,
vacuum off, the solution on, and brushes down. This
allows the solution to stay in contact with the soil
while loosening the surface accumulation with the
brushes. Allow time for the first application to stay in
contact with the floor. Length of time between the
first and second pass depends on amount of
accumulation and the type of chemical being used.
A second scrubbing with the squeegee down and
again the solution and brushes on will further loosen
soil. The additional application of solution will further
assist the difficult cleaning job.
FOR SAFETY: When using machine, go slow on
inclines and slippery services.
