INTRODUCTION
The Express Lane Machine, shown in Figure 1-1, is a versatile, total lane care machine that
performs three operations: cleaning, conditioning, and standalone buffing. The cleaning
operation removes dirt and oil from the lane. It can be performed alone or in combination
with conditioning. The conditioning operation buffs an oil pattern on the lane. The buffing
operation buffs oil that is already on the buffer brush onto the lane and redistributes the oil
already on the lane. The buffing operation is automatically activated with the oiling
operation, but it can be performed alone.
The cleaning operation wets the lane by spraying a cleaning solution through three spray
heads. The factory-set flow rate and spraying pattern give gutter-to-gutter coverage
without getting overspray into the gutters. To boost the effectiveness of the cleaning
solution, it is applied more heavily down the middle of the lane, where the oil is usually
heaviest, and it is mixed into the oil by an agitator foam. The residue is then picked up by
the Express Lane Machine’s floating vacuum head (Vac Head). The floating action allows
the Vac Head to conform to changes in the lane surface. The cleaning operation is
performed only as the machine travels from the approach to the pin deck.
