How To Operate The Machine

To pre-wet brushes you should first turn the speed knob to the lowest traverse setting on the "L" model. Then on both the "S" and "L" models, lower brushes until brushes are just touching the floor and the yellow light on the control panel in illuminated. Activate the forward/reverse switch to start motor and solution flow.

NOTE: On the "L" model, the machine will not move when the traverse speed knob is rotated fully counterclockwise.

7.Adjust the flow of clean solution to the flow desired.

8.Move the machine across the floor in the forward direction.

9.Make a 180° turn.

NOTE: When you make more passes across the floor, let the brush clean approximately 2 inches (5 cm) of the area already cleaned by the brush.

NOTE: During most cleaning procedures, apply and remove the solution in one operation.
