2.4 Fitting heavy duty tools
•
Heavy duty tools (such as star-wheels carbide blocks
and scrapers) must to be bolted onto the machine.
•
To bolt tool to machine two drive pins (diagonally
opposite each other) must be removed from each of the
rotating heads.
•
 Fit three matching heavy duty tools over each pair of
drive pins.
•
Secure each tool using two M5 bolts. Always use spring
washers with bolts to minimise chance of tools working
loose. IMPORTANT – regularly check that bolts are
tight.
2.5 Adjusting the handle height
Select the most comfortable handle height using the
adjustment lever and lock in position.
2.6 Adding weights
•
Before adding additional weights switch off the machine.
•
Unscrew knob and lift off clamping bar (4).
•
Add additional weight as required, and refit clamping
bar.
3. Controls
The operating controls are located on the handle (1).
Please refer to page 1.
4. Operation
4.1 Starting the machine
•
Fully unwind the supply cord from the handle and plug
in to a convenient socket outlet.
•
With the handle set at a comfortable working height, and
with both hands on the handle, lift the start/stop lever to
START the machine. Releasing the lever will STOP the
machine.
•
WARNING - Never start the machine without brushes or
heavy duty tools fitted.
•
Normal movement of the machine is in a forward and
backward direction.
•
Always work away from the supply socket to avoid
running into the supply cord.
4.2 Using the machine
•
Fit brushes or tools suitable for the surface to be
cleaned/ prepared.
•
Adjust handle to suit operator
•
Tilt the machine slightly backwards so that the brushes/
tools are clear of the floor and wheel the machine to the
area to be cleaned.
•
Switch on the machine. Always work away from the
mains socket – this will help to avoid running into the
cable.
•
Scarifying is normally a dry process. Because of the
extremely harsh abrasive action of scarifying brushes
and heavy duty tools, only resilient floors such as
concrete, metal tile etc. should be scarified.
•
Walk slowly behind the machine, overlapping each pass
to ensure an even finish.
•
Do not keep the machine rotating on one spot as this
could damage the floor surface.
•
Should the machine start to vibrate, or resist the
cleaning action on the floor, check the brushes/ tools for
wear.
•
Each area of the floor should be covered at half walking
pace. Some floors may require extra passes to process
it thoroughly.
•
On reaching the original starting point, position the
machine to process another path parallel to the first and
overlapping by 50mm.
•
When the entire floor area has been covered, clear
debris using suitable vacuum cleaner or sweeper.
4.3 Processing the floor
•
We recommend that the surrounding floor area is
protected with plastic sheet, sealed at the edges with
adhesive tape.
•
When the floor area is sealed off, the processing of the
floor can begin.
•
Walk at half speed down the edge of the floor, keeping
the head of the machine at the edge of the tape. The
discs will ride over the tape should you accidentally run
onto it.
•
Dispense enough solution to keep the floor wet while
the machine is operating. When you reach a wall or the
extent of the supply cord, return over the same path just
covered.
•
Each area of the floor should be covered at least twice
at half walking pace. Some floors may require extra
passes to process it thoroughly.
•
On reaching the original starting point, position the
machine to process another path parallel to the first and
overlapping by 50mm.
•
When the entire floor area has been covered, use a wet
vacuum with a squeegee attachment to pick up the
water and stone residue from the floor.
•
Repeat the process using progressively finer discs in
turn.
•
In areas too small to use the machine, it will be
necessary to use a hand polisher with a single abrasive
disc.
•
Wet vacuum all remaining solution to dry the floor
quickly.
•
NOTE - If the floor has lippage, or an area of the floor
has lippage, it should be wet vacuumed after each
processing grit. Lippage will damage abrasive discs and
fragments could be picked up and scratch the floor
surface. The floor should be vacuumed at any point if
the slurry becomes heavy.
•
As the floor dries, remove the protective plastic sheeting
and tape.
•
Where carpet or fabric materials are wet with water and
surface residue, flush with clean water and extract with
the wet vacuum. This process may need to be repeated
several times to remove all residue.
•
Where surface residue has dried on a hard surface, a
clean dry cloth will quickly remove it.
•
Following clean up, damp mop twice with clean water to
remove surface residue. The floor will then appear dull
and hazy.
•
The polishing procedure should be performed after a
twenty four hour drying period. On smaller floors the
surface may be mechanically dried. The drive backs
