Machine Control Panel
Key Switch (See Figure 3, Item "A")
The key switch turns "ON" the power to the control panel. "O" is "OFF" and "I" is "ON".
Forward Reverse Switch (See Figure 3, Item "B") The forward/reverse switch turns the traverse motor "on" forward and if the brush motors are in the down position, activates the brush motors/solution control module. There is a two second delay for the pad motor to stop after releasing the switch. Either the right or the left switch can be used. Use either switch in conjunction with the white reverse switch to reverse the traverse motor.
.
Battery Meter (See Figure 3, Item "C")
The battery meter indicates the relative charge on the battery pack. Do not continue to run the machine when the needle is in the "red" area. This will shorten the life of the battery pack.
Brush Pressure Meter (See Figure 3, Item "D") The brush pressure meter indicates the relative amount of pressure the brushes are putting on the floor. To maximize run time on a battery charge, keep the needle towards the center of the green area.
Reverse Switch (See Figure 3, Item "E")
The reverse switch, when used in conjunction with one of the forward/reverse switches, causes the machine to reverse directions. The reverse speed is 70% of the forward speed.
Hour Meter (Not Illustrated) (Option)
The hour meter indicates the number of hours the machine has operated. It runs only when the brush motor is on.
CircuitBreakers(SeeFig3,Items"F","G","H","I"&"J") The circuit breaker reset buttons are located on the rear cover. The breakers are located as follows:
Item F - Actuator Head (5 amp) Item G - Vacuum Motor (30 amp) Item H& I - Brush Motor (25 amp) Item J - Traverse Motor (25 amp)
If a circuit breaker trips, determine which motor is not operating and turn the key switch "OFF". Wait five minutes and push the reset button back in. Turn the key switch "ON" and try again. An authorized service person should be contacted if the breaker trips again.
Control Handles (See Figure 3, Item "K") The control handles are located at the rear of the machine. They are used to guide the machine.
Solution Control Knob (See Figure 3, Item "L") The solution control knob regulates the flow of chemi- cal solution to the floor. To increase the flow, turn knob clockwise. To decrease the flow, turn counter clockwise. Full counter clockwise is OFF and full clockwise is ON.
Traverse Speed Knob (See Figure 3, Item "M") To increase speed, turn knob clockwise.
Brush Motor Switch (See Figure 3, Item "N")
To activate brush motor, push brush position switch to down position. Brush Motor and solution flow will activate when the traverse buttons are pushed. To shut brush motor off, hold brush position switch in up position until actuator stops.
Vacuum Motor Switch (See Figures 4 & 5, pg. 11) To activate vacuum motor, lower squeegee handle. Handle has two positions. Lowest position is operating position and the middle position is transport to clear vacuum hose.
