TROUBLESHOOTING
Poor Solution Flow
If an inadequate supply of solution is reaching the floor, check the solution hoses for kinks.
These hoses are connected to the brush drive assembly. If there are no kinks in the solution
hoses, pull the hoses from the brush cover fittings and check the entire line for blockage.
Electrical Problems
If Brush Motors do not run, check the following:
1. Emergency Stop is pulled out.
2. Key Switch is in ON position.
3. Brushes are in down position.
4. Check the circuit breaker button located on the bottom of the main Controller Box.
Batteries Not Holding Charge
Check that the batteries have been given enough charging time to reach their full charge. This
will vary according to condition of the batteries.
Check the lights on the battery charger after charger shuts off:
A. Green light — Batteries are fully charged and are in good condition.
B. Amber light — All cells are OK but the total battery capacity is reduced. This usually
indicates that the batteries are aging.
C. Red light — The battery capacity is low and the entire charger-battery system needs to be
inspected by a qualified serviceman.
The automatic charger is designed to keep batteries at optimum operating charge levels.
NOTE: If red light comes on, inspect battery connections and water level.
Check each cell with a hydrometer before and after charging to determine it batteries are weak.
Do not charge or use batteries when the liquid in any one or more cells measures less than
1.150 specific gravity. A fully charged battery should read 1.270 or better after cooling 1/2 hour.
Batteries that have been properly charged yet still do not reach a full charge should be
replaced. One defective battery can weaken the other batteries. Replace the defective battery if
the battery pack is less than two years old. If over two years, replace the entire battery pack.
