5110 WHEEL SIZES
WHEEL SIZE(FIGURE A)
The larger of the wheels is more commonly used. The larger wheel is faster in speed (up to 113 feet per
minute). In most cases the larger wheel will work on all job types of application and heavy debris build-up
(vct, ceramic etc.). It also works best for slippery/slimy residue, ie. double stick.
The smaller of the wheels works best for very small, congested areas where extra steering control is
needed. The smaller wheel slows down the speed (82 feet per minute) which makes the machine more
powerful and uses lower electricity supply. Some difficult materials come up better with slower removal
speed with the smaller wheels. The smaller wheel also allows more weight to run on the machine.
To change wheels, see Wheel Changing on page 35.

WARNING: When doing maintenance or changing a wheel, make sure machine is supported
properly or serious injury could occur.
