TO BEGIN SCRUBBING
When operating the machine around people,
pay close attention for unexpected movement.
Use extra caution around children.
Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can
cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up.
1.
Turn the machine power on.
2.
Lower the squeegee.
3.
Turn the vacuum on.
4.
Lower the scrub brush to the floor.
5.
Turn the scrub brush on (for traction model,
brush will start when machine is propelled).
6.
Drive machine forward to begin scrubbing.
NOTE: Shut machine off immediately if water or
foam is expelled from the machine.
7.
Adjust the speed of the machine, solution flow
and scrub brush pressure as necessary.
NOTE: For non-traction model, the solution flow
must be shut off to prevent unintentional draining
of solution tank. For traction model, once solution
flow rate is set it is not necessary to shut off
solution when stopping scrubbing. Solution flow
is automatically shut off when the brush motor
stops. When the brush motor is activated, flow
will automatically resume.
TO STOP SCRUBBING
1.
Release the directional control button(s), if
your machine is traction model.
2.
Turn the scrub brush off.
3.
Raise the scrub brush.
4.
Raise the squeegee.
5.
Turn the vacuum off.
6.
Turn the machine power off.
DOUBLE SCRUB
For floors which are heavily soiled or have thick
accumulations of floor finish the machine may not
clean sufficiently with one pass. In these cases it
will be necessary to double scrub.
To double scrub, make the first pass over the
surface being cleaned with the squeegee up,
vacuum off, the solution on, and brush down and
on. This allows the solution to stay in contact with
the soil while loosening the surface accumulation
with the brush. Allow time for the first application
to stay in contact with the floor. The length of time
between the first and second pass depends on
the amount of accumulation and the type of
chemical being used. A second scrubbing with the
squeegee down, vacuum on and again with
solution and brush on will further loosen the soil.
The additional application of solution will further
assist the difficult cleaning job.
FOR SAFETY:
When using machine, go slow
on inclines and slippery services.
