2) Productivity rates with the various blade and/or
attachments can be increased with the addition of
external weight being applied to the front of the
machine. FIGURE 23. Each external weight block
weighs 14 lbs (6.3 kg). Maximum allowable external
weight permits the use of three blocks or 42 lbs (19
kg). Exceeding this figure can result in permanent
structural damage to the Bon Floor Stripper. The
additional external weight blocks can be secured to
the machine with the use of longer length carriage
bolts. FIGURE 24.

3) Proper operator posture and stance will enhance
productivity rates and minimize fatigue. Adjust the
operator handle height to place the handle grips at
approximately waist level. Keep the upper body as
vertical as possible. This procedure will help to
maximize leverage and minimize back related stress.
Keep feet a comfortable distance apart to help provide
stability and locomotion force. A proper operator
position is depicted in FIGURE 25. Improper operator
positions are depicted in FIGURES 26 and 27. The
proper and improper operator positions depicted in
this manual are not all inclusive.
