• Have your BETCO service center check the machine once a year. • When your BETCO machine is ready to be retired, the machine must be disposed of properly. It contains oils and electronic components. The machine was built using totally recyclable materials.
20” Automatic Scrubber must be properly maintained through ™ regular cleaning and maintenance as outlined in this manual. Use of genuine Betco OEM parts is strongly recommended. For any questions about caring for the machine, or if issues should arise, please contact Betco’s Technical Support Department or the nearest authorized Betco Equipment dealer.
TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE: TIE DOWN PROCEDURE When transporting, the GeneSys 20” Automatic Scrubber must be properly tied down to keep the machine protected and in ™ good working condition. Using features of the machine’s design, below are suggestions to secure the machine efficiently and effectively during transport.
BATTERIES The GeneSys 20” Automatic Scrubber is supplied with two 12-volt batteries and an onboard battery charger. The batteries, installed in the battery compartment beneath the recovery tank, may be either Wet Cell (aka Flooded), which require periodic maintenance, or maintenance- free Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM).
Page 8
The electrolyte levels of all wet cell batteries need to be checked periodically to ensure proper performance and long battery life. Depending on the local climate and use, Betco recommends that batteries should be checked at least once a week. If the machine sees heavy use, check batteries every 2 to 3 days.
Page 9
BATTERIES continued MAINTAINING LEAD-ACID BATTERIES WITH FORTIFY WET BATTERY PROTECTION SYSTEM ™ The Fortify Wet Battery Protection System monitors the ™ electrolyte levels of the batteries using a sensor inserted into the batteries and lights an indicator LED to notify the operator to water the batteries when levels are low.
ON-BOARD CHARGER WARNING: Perform one battery charging cycle before using the machine. The on-board charger, located on the bottom of the lower control panel, has LEDs to indicate the charging status and the type of battery to charge. Before charging any batteries, use the “Select Battery Type” button on the charger to configure the charger for the type of battery that is being charged.
MACHINE PREPARATION / SETUP SQUEEGEE INSTALLATION 1. Position the squeegee behind the machine and align the knob posts with the squeegee carrier slots. 2. Lift the squeegee and slide into the slots. (Fig. 1) 3. Tighten down the knobs to secure the squeegee. (Fig. 2) 4.
CAUTION: Repeated tripping of a breaker may cause damage to any of the electrical components being protected by the breaker. A breaker repeatedly tripping may be an indication of a component failure or an electrical short – contact Betco® Technical Support immediately to address the issue. BATTERY METER The battery meter reports the accumulated machine hours and battery charge status.

FORTIFY ARMOR TELEMETRY ™ ™ The optional ARMOR Telemetry unit can monitor and report various metrics of machine performance, including run time ™ activity, charging history, and impact notifications. The information collected is sent via cellular network to Armordata.com, where the web-based dashboard interface allows easy viewing of the equipment’s productivity can be tracked. DEVICE REGISTRATION 1.
FORTIFY PROGRAMMABLE TIMER LOCKOUT ™ The optional timer lockout can be programmed to limit operation of the machine by time of day and days of the week, preventing unauthorized use while not interfering with productivity. A red status light on the timer lockout is active when timer lockout has enabled machine operation. The timer is located on the back panel of the machine and is protected from tampering by a metal cover.
