UNPACKING & ASSEMBLY
R3 Models
1. Open carton. Lift fork to vertical position.
Remove machine from carton.
2. Assemble the two parts of the handle. A spring-
loaded button will lock the two parts together.
3. Remove the connecting pin from the handle connect-
or, fit handle over handle connector, and replace
connecting pin to secure handle. (Fig. 2) The slot
in the handle should fit the notch on the left side of
the handle connector. If the handle connector was
incorrectly positioned on the fork, the handle will face
backwards.
4. Electrical system should be turned to “Off” position
by tilting handle forward.
5. Place electrical cable in the cable holder on the
handle. This helps to prevent accidentally running
over the cable.
6. Slide the solution release cable through the hole in
the cover of the front solution tank and into the red
solution tube. (Fig. 2) Fasten finger tight as over-
tightening may destroy the red solution tube.
7. To install brushes remove the front and rear axles by
pushing from either end. Position brushes and insert
axles. Turn brush slightly to make it easier to align
the axle with the hexagonal hole on the other side of
the machine.
Hint:
Placing axles in from side of
machine with power cord is easier.
