transporting then transport the machine to the fi lling 
station.

5.  Turn the machine 

OFF

.

6.  Fill the Tank with up to 10 gallons of clean water 

either at the front fi ll port

DANGER

EXPLOSION RISK!  

Flammable materials can 

cause an explosion or fi re.  Do not use fl ammable 
materials in tank or pick up.

CAUTION

TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THIS MACHINE:

• 

Use approved detergents only

• 

Water temperature must not exceed 130˚F/54˚C

• 

Do not use high-percentage bleach mixture

OPERATING HINTS:

1.  Observe the amount of solution the machine is 

dispensing on the fl oor and adjust to the desired fl ow.  
To increase the solution fl ow rate, pull the Solution 
Control Lever down.  To shut the solution 

OFF

 

completely, just release the Drive button, or use dash 
mounted switch.

2.  Keep an eye on the clear Vacuum Cover to make sure 

that there is not any foamy buildup in the Recovery 
Tank.  If excess foam begins to develop, pour a 
recommended foam control solution into the Recovery 
Tank.  Foam is usually an indication of excessive soap.

3.  Always operate at lower speeds when scrubbing 

around walls and objects.  You should reduce the 
speed to maintain control when turning.

4.  If squeegee starts to streak, raise and wipe the Blades 

with a clean cloth.  If the problem continues, check the 
Squeegee Blades for wear or damage and rotate if 
needed.  You may need to pre-sweep before scrubbing.  

(Only Use OEM Parts)

5.  Change or turn over Pads when dirty.

6.  Stay clear of objects protruding from the fl oor such as 

sockets, grates, etc, for they will damage the Pads and 
Squeegee Blades.

7.  Always keep an eye on your gauges.  They let you 

know the status of a particular system at a glance.  If 
your Battery Gauge is reading low you much stop 
immediately and recharge.  Running the batteries dead 
will result in damage to the batteries.

8.  When you run out of solution, raise the Scrubdeck and 

continue to vacuum the remaining water until it is all 
consumed.  The Solution Sight Tube is used to indicate 
the level of detergent remaining in the Tank.

9.  When you are ready to stop, raise the Scrubdeck, turn 

OFF

 the Solution Switch, raise the Squeegee and 

drive the machine back to the charging area.  Be sure 
to drain both Tanks before storing the machine.
