How To Operate The Machine - Minuteman Mirage M220028K17X Parts And Instruction Manual

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Floor Care Machine Introduction
MINUTEMAN Propane Burnishers are best defined as ultra-high speed buffers with the staying power to produce
superior high gloss floor surfaces. Upon contact with the floor, the burnisher should always be kept moving. The
speed at which you walk will determine the results obtained. Slower speeds create more heat and friction and
therefore more shine. MINUTEMAN recommends a moderate pace for best results and safe operation. Never run
with the machine! When burnishing, avoid loose tile, electrical outlets, door thresholds, and any other objects
which may come in contact with the pad other than the floor itself. Remember, the pad is turning very rapidly and
will propel loose objects it comes in contact with potentially causing injury and/or death to operator and/or
others.
Proper care and maintenance will protect your investment and keep your machine serving you for many years to
come. It is essential that these items are closely followed:

How to Operate the Machine

Preparing the Machine for Use:
Before using any type of powered equipment, proper safety dictates you should visually inspect it.
1. Adjust the Handle to a comfortable height.
2. Bonnet Filter - Make sure the bonnet air filter atop the engine is clean. It should be cleaned nightly using soap
and water and fully dried prior to use.
3. Check the Engine Oil Level. To get an accurate reading, insert the dipstick but DO NOT screw in. Refer to Engine
Manual for further instruction.
4. Fill the Propane Cylinder following the instructions as given under the heading: "Refilling and Storing Propane
Cylinders."
5. Inspect the condition of the Pad and Pad Driver. Is there a pad? Is it properly attached? What is its condition?
Ensure pad is clean and has at least a thickness of 1/3 inch. Always turn off engine to clean or replace pad.
6. Do the fuel lines show any sign of wear and tear, such as cracks or any corrosion?
7. Once inspection is complete, screw clockwise the brass fitting on the high pressure fuel line onto the propane
cylinder service valve. Ensure a good connection and hand tighten only. This connection MUST be secure because
the service valve has a safety valve inside it which will only open if the brass fuel line fitting is completely seated
into the service valve.
