OPERATING PROCEDURES
WARNING! For the safe operation of this machine follow the instructions given in this booklet and the training given by
your supervisor. Failure to do so can result in personal injury and/or damage to machine and property!
DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENT!
The model shown in this manual is intended for commercial use.
PREPARATION
To prepare the machine for operation, make sure it is of correct voltage and properly assembled.
Your new floor machine operates in the normal side to side motion of a conventional single disc machine. Be prepared before starting by
removing all obstructions or other obstacles in the area to be cleaned. Check the proper application recommendations and procedures found
on the label of your cleaning or finish container. IF IN DOUBT, CALL
YOUR SUPERVISOR .
WARNING! NEVER USE THIS MACHINE WITH FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL!
For Scrubbing or Polishing: Select the correct floor pad or brush (your supplier can help you). If in doubt, ask your supervisor.
NEVER OPERATE THE MACHINE WITHOUT THE FLOOR PAD OR BRUSH INSTALLED!
To properly attach the brush, UNPLUG THE FLOOR MACHINE, lay the machine on its side and remove the screw in the bottom of the drive
adaptor. Position the brush or pad on the drive adaptor. Assemble the attachment screw and tighten.
Plug the machine’s power cable into a 14/3 extension cable and then a properly grounded outlet (see Safety Instructions). Next, adjust the
handle height to a comfortable position.
Start the machine by depressing the trigger switch in the handle.
The machine will glide sideways over the floor by a slight raising and lowering of the handle. Raise the handle slightly to go left, or lower
the handle slightly to go right.
Releasing the switch lever stops the machine.
MAINTENANCE
AFTER EACH USE: Store the machine in a clean dry area. Wipe the entire machine and cord down with a clean cloth. CHECK the cord and
plug for nicks, cuts or damage. Report these to your supervisor for correction. Remove the pad or brush and clean thoroughly.
NOTE: To prevent brush damage and reduce wobble problems, do not store the unit with the machine weight on the brush. Either remove
the brush or support the unit on a hook while in the storage position.
WARNING! Always disconnect the machine’s electrical plug from the electrical outlet before performing any service, maintenance, pad
changing or inspection of the machine.
MOTOR: The motor is lubricated for life under normal use. No oiling or greasing is necessary.
If you have any questions regarding the maintenance of your floor machine, ASK YOUR SUPERVISOR.
