The drive system uses a
variable speed motor. The motor
drives a differential axle, and through
it, the two front tires. The motor's
speed, rate of acceleration and
decelaration are controlled through
the "Central Command" system
located in the control panel box.

When the operator lets up on the
power bar handlebar control, Central
Command brings the machine to a
smooth stop, and turns off the brush
motors and solution flow. The vacu-
um motor will run for fifteen seconds,
and then shut off automatically.

All motors take their energy from a
24-Volt deep-cycle battery set.
