ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATION
Remove the blade or ceramic tile ripper attachment according to the procedures as outlined in this manual for the above listed configurations.
DANGER
LIFTING, LOWERING AND TRANSPORTING THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER WITH A BLADE OR CERAMIC TILE RIPPER ATTACHMENT INSTALLED CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
4)When transporting to and from the jobsite, block the bottom of the main frame to prevent direct impact blows against the exciter plate. This procedure will reduce impact loads directly to the elastomeric rubber mounts, minimize their deflection and increase service life.
ADJUSTING THE OPERATOR HANDLE HEIGHT.
The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER incorporates a handle that can be adjusted to compensate for variances in operator height. Handle height can be infinitely varied between the stop limits. No external tools are required. Correct handle height can increase overall machine productivity and reduce operator fatigue.
1)Loosen the handle knobs located at the rear of the handle. Extend the knobs out approximately 1/2 inch (13 mm). FIGURE 20.
FIGURE 20
2)Position the operator handle grips at a height convenient to the specific operator. In most configurations, the operator handle grips will be at approximately belt height.
3)Tighten the handle knobs finger tight. Determine the adjustable section of the operator handle is properly secured tight against the fixed section.
CAUTION
Improper knob tension and/or improperly securing the operator handle to the main frame can result in an unstable platform configuration. An unstable platform configuration can result in property damage and/or personal injury.
DANGER
DETERMINE THE THREADED STUDS ARE PROPERLY SEATED AGAINST THE SLIDING SECTION OF THE OPERATOR HANDLE. THE ADJUSTABLE SECTION MUST BE FIRMLY SECURED TIGHT AGAINST THE FIXED SECTION OF THE OPERATOR HANDLE. IMPROPERLY SECURED STUDS CAN RESULT IN INADVERTENT OPERATOR HANDLE MOVEMENT AND/OR SEPARATION, RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY
STARTING THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER ON THE JOBSITE.
1)Position the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER on a flat and level surface of firm foundation.
2)Install a blade or the ceramic tile ripper attachment per the procedures as outlined in this manual.
3)Determine that the ON/OFF switch located on the operator handle is in the OFF position.
DANGER
UNEXPECTED MACHINE START UP CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
4)The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is designed to operate from a clean, 15 ampere, 115 VAC, 60 Hz, nominal power source. A clean power source refers to the amperage available from the individual electrical circuit selected. Additional electrical products already utilizing the same circuit will reduce the available amperage, and can result in starting and operational difficulties.
