AFTER USE

1Raise the brushes (or pads) and raise the squeegee. Move the machine to a service area.

2Turn the Master Key Switch (A) OFF and remove the key.

3To empty the solution tank, pull the Solution Drain Hose (16) off the elbow. Direct the hose to a floor drain or bucket. Rinse the tank with clean water. Inspect the solution hoses; replace if kinked or damaged.

4To empty the recovery tank, remove the Recovery Tank Drain Hose (27) from its hanger and remove the cap (hold the end of the hose above the water level in the tank to avoid sudden, uncontrolled flow of waste water). The Recovery Tank Drain Hose (27) can be squeezed to regulate the flow. Rinse the tank and recovery tank switch(es) (32) with clean water. Inspect the recovery and vacuum hoses; replace if kinked or damaged. SERVICE NOTE: Make sure you do not get any water down the Vacuum Motor Inlet Screen (4) while cleaning.

NOTE: If you have the extended scrub option installed the system will need to be purged.

4a After each use, drain and rinse the recovery tank thoroughly and then fill the recovery tank about 1/3 full with clean water.

4b Push and hold the Extended Scrub Button (G) for 3 seconds ( the indicator will turn green) to initiate the purge function. The purge will run for 20 seconds. NOTE: This is to flush any debris from the system. If you do not do this, the extended pump and(or) solenoid valve could become plugged up with debris.

5Remove the brushes or pad holders. Rinse the brushes or pads with warm water and hang up to dry. Allow buffing pads to dry completely before using again. NOTE: You can either remove the brushes manually or automatically by pressing and holding the Scrub OFF Switch (H) for 5 seconds (EDS disk models only).

6Remove the squeegee, rinse it with warm water and hang it up to dry.
