Introduction

Clarke propane floor care equipment is manufactured in two basic concepts: the buffer/burnisher and the floor stripper. Both of these designs are truly PORTABLE equipment. Propane buffers are best defined as ultra high speed buffers with the staying power to produce superior high gloss floor surfaces. Upon contact with the floor, the buffer should always be kept moving. The speed at which you walk will determine the results that you will obtain. Slower speeds create more heat and therefore more shine. Clarke recommends a moderate pace for best results and safe operation. NEVER RUN WITH THE BUFFER!! While a credible shine will still result, the danger of trying to stop the machine in an emergency situation is unacceptable. When buffing, avoid loose tile, electric outlets, door thresholds and any object which may come in contact with the pad other than the floor itself. REMEMBER, the pad is turning very rapidly.

Proper care and maintenance will protect your invest- ment and keep your machine serving you for many years to come. It is essential that these issues are closely followed:

CAUTION: Overfilling the propane tank is the number one cause of problems with a propane machine. This can cause the engine to run poorly or not at all.

In addition, overfilling allows liquid propane to enter the fuel control system, possibly ruining the lockoff/regulator assembly. This voids the warranty on affected parts of the machine. To avoid problems, read and understand fully, the section "Filling and Storing Propane Tanks."

OVERHEATING is a major cause of engine failure. Keep the cooling air bonnet filter clean. Protect your machine; don't allow wax dust/lint to build up on the cooling fins of the engine cylinder(s). A good high pressure spray wash directed at the fins when the engine is cold will prevent this from happening.

LOW OIL AND DIRTY OIL account for most of the other failures. Clarke recommends changing the oil on a regular schedule, perhaps exceeding that which is found in the engine manufacturers' manual. Checking the oil daily, before putting the machine to work, is a good habit to get into and could save you the downtime and expense of replacing the engine due to oil starvation. AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE REPLACED THE OIL SUPPLY BEFORE RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
