SETTING DESIRED SOLUTION FLOW RATE
The next step is to set the unit to the desired solution flow. This control
feature is located at the lower rear of the machine and can be adjusted
from low to high flow spanning a range of 0 to 0.5 gallons (1.9 L) per
minute.

Once the machine is powered on and the solution flow is set, it takes
three simple steps to operate the machine: lower the scrub deck, lower
the squeegee and engage the activation trigger. These steps are visually
shown on the lower control panel of the unit’s “1, 2, 3-Step” on-board
operation guide. Following are the detail steps of how scrubbing and
recovery functions are activated.
LOWERING THE SCRUB DECK
1. Place your foot on the pedal and depress the lever while shifting it to the right. Once clear of the lower
notch, lifting your foot will lower the scrub deck into the operating position.
2. The scrubbers have 3 down pressure settings
• The 28” and 32” disk units have settings of 70, 110, and 150 lbs. (32, 50, and 65 kg)
• The 28” orbital unit has setttings of 70, 110, and 160 lbs. (32, 50, and 73 kg)
When the unit is set into operating position with the foot pedal, it is in the lower down pressure position.
This position is typically used for daily cleaning of normal soils. However, should you have tough soils
or want to perform chemical-free finish removal, you can engage the higher down pressure settings. To
engage the medium down pressure setting, lift the foot pedal lever so that the hook is secured in the cutout
in the foot lever. To engage high down pressure, lift the foot lever to the upper notch position so that the
bottom of the lever is locked on the hook of the bracket. To disengage medium or high down pressure
simply lift and shift the lever to the right and lower it into the normal operating position.
