Circuit Breakers (See Figure 3, Items "F", "G" & "H")
The circuit breaker reset buttons are located on the
rear cover. The breakers are located as follows:
Item F - Traverse Motor (25 amp)
Item G - Vacuum Motor (30 amp)
Item H - Brush Motor (40 amp)
If a circuit breaker trips, determine which motor is not
operating and turn the key switch "OFF". Wait five
minutes and push the reset button back in. Turn the
key switch "ON" and try again. An authorized service
person should be contacted if the breaker trips again.
Control Handles (See Figure 3, Item "I")
The control handles are located at the rear of the
machine. They are used to guide the machine.
Solution Control Knob (See Figure 3, Item "J")
The solution control knob regulates the flow of chemi-
cal solution to the floor. To increase the flow, turn
knob clockwise. To decrease the flow, turn counter
clockwise.
Traverse Speed Knob (See Figure 3, Item "K")
To increase speed, turn knob clockwise.
Vacuum Motor Switch (See Figure 4, Item "L")
To activate vacuum motor, lower squeegee handle.
Handle has two positions. Lowest position is operat-
ing position and the middle position is transport to
clear vacuum hose.
Brush Motor Switch (See Figure 4, Item "M")
To activate brush motor, lower handle. Brush Motor
and solution flow will activate when the traverse
buttons are pushed. To shut brush motor off, raise
handle to top position.

Key Switch (See Figure 3, Item "A")
The key switch turns "ON" the power to the control
panel. "O" is "OFF" and "I" is "ON".
Forward Reverse Switch (See Figure 3, Item "B")
On Traverse Model Only
The forward/reverse switch turns the traverse motor
"on" forward and if the brush motor is in the down
position, activates the brush motor/solution control
module. There is a two second delay for the pad
motor to stop after releasing the switch. Either the
right or the left switch can be used. Use either switch
in conjunction with the white reverse switch to reverse
the traverse motor.
Reverse Switch (See Figure 3, Item "I")
On Traverse Model Only
The reverse switch, when used in conjunction with one
of the forward/reverse switches, causes the machine to
reverse directions. The reverse speed is 70% of the
forward speed.
NOTE: Squeegee must be raised to
at least the first position.
Battery Meter (See Figure 3, Item "C")
The battery meter indicates the relative charge on the
battery pack. Do not continue to run the machine
when the needle is in the "red" area. This will shorten
the life of the battery pack.
Brush Pressure Meter (See Figure 3, Item "D")
The pad pressure meter indicates the relative amount
of pressure the pad is putting on the floor. To maxi-
mize run time on a battery charge, keep the needle
towards the center of the green area.
Hour Meter (See Figure 3, Item "E")
The hour meter indicates the number of hours the
machine has operated. It runs only when the brush
motor is on.
