MAINTENANCE
DAILY MAINTENANCE:
1. Remove the clean Brooms. Never use soiled Brooms
when cleaning. Replace Brooms when they become
worn.
2. Turn Beater Bar for 20 seconds to clean out Filter.
Inspect fi lter.
3. Pull out Hopper to empty and clean before machine
storage.
4. Wipe down machine if needed. Use a non-abrasive,
non-solvent cleaner or a clean damp cloth.
5. Recharge the Batteries if needed.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Check Battery water level in each cell of the Batteries
and fi ll as needed. Always use distilled water to refi ll
Batteries. Batteries should be fi lled approximately
3
⁄
4
'' to 1'' above the plates. Overfi lling will cause the
Batteries to leak during charging. The charging
process creates gas bubbles inside the Battery, which
effectively increases the volume of the electrolyte.
2. Clean Battery tops to prevent corrosion.
3. Flip
Brooms.
4. Pull out Hopper to empty and clean before machine
storage.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Check Main Broom Jackshaft Belt for wear and
tension.
2. Check machine for Vacuum Leaks.
3. Inspect the Dust Curtains and replace if torn or worn.
4. Check to see if Battery cables are tightened. Tighten,
if needed, 8-10 ft/lb MAX.
5. Inspect all Cables and Springs.
6. Inspect all Nuts, Bolts, and Fasteners.
YEARLY MAINTENANCE:
Call your local dealer for yearly maintenance.
STORING MACHINE:
1. Be sure to clean the Hopper out completely.
CHECKING BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY:
Use a hydrometer to check the Battery specifi c gravity.
Checking Gravity:
• Hydrometer
• Battery
NOTICE
Do not take readings immediately after adding distilled
water. If water and acid are not thoroughly mixed, the
reading may not be accurate.
Check the hydrometer against this chart

NOTICE
If the readings are taken when the battery electrolyte
is any temperature other than 80
°
F(27
°
C), the reading
must be temperature corrected. To fi nd the corrected
specifi c gravity reading when the temperature of the
battery electrolyte is other than 80
°
F(27

C): add (+) to
the specifi c gravity reading 0.004 (4 points), for each
10
