SAFE OPERATING PRACTICES
(Continued)
Propane Powered Floor Burnishers are designed and manufactured for high speed commercial floor buffing only.
These machines are designed to buff most modern types of floors including composition tile, stone, marble,
terrazzo, and resilient floor covering using floor coatings designed for high speed buffing.
Even though NFPA 58 8-4.5 says... " these machines shall be permitted to be used in buildings frequented by
the public, including the times when such buildings are occupied by the public." Nilfisk-Advance suggests
use when occupancy of a given work area is at a minimum.
These machines should not:
•
Be used in nursing homes, hospitals, day care centers etc.
•
Be used by unqualified or untrained personnel.
•
Be used unless properly maintained and adjusted.
•
Be left running unattended.
•
Be used on areas with obstructions such as thresholds, floor outlet boxes, etc.
•
Be used in rooms without proper ventilation.
These Propane Powered Burnishers are designed with the burnishing head offset to the right side to make it
easier to burnish the floor close to the edge. It is recommended to start burnishing on the right side of the aisle,
turn and come back down the isle in the opposite direction overlapping the previous path slightly. Continue this
pattern until the floor area to be burnished has been covered with the last pass being on the right side of the
machine. The forward speed is generally at a normal walking speed.
Caution:
Do not allow the burnisher to operate without moving. It may burn the floor and could cause
damage to the floor covering.
