Machine Control Panel

On/Off Key Switch (See figure 1, Item D)

The key switch turns “ON” the power to the control panel. “O” is the “OFF” and “I” is the “ON”.

Brush Up/Down Switch (See figure 1, Item A)

To lower brush head, push the brush switch in the down (+) position. To lower the brush head to maximum brush pres- sure, continue to hold the switch in the down (+) position until the travel stops. The brush motors will start and solution will flow (provided the solution is turned “ON”) when the machine begins to traverse. To raise the brush head, push the brush switch in the up (-) position until the brush head travel stops or desired position is reached.

Squeegee Up/Down Switch (See figure 1, Item B)

The squeegee switch is used to raise and lower the squee- gee and to turn on and off the vacuum motor. The vacuum motor is turned on when the switch is placed in the middle or lower position. NOTE: When the squeegee switch is placed in the lower position, the vacuum motor will turn on.

To raise the squeegee, place the switch in either the middle or up position. The middle position is used for one touch con- trol. The vacuum motor will stop, after a short delay, when the switch is placed in the up position.

Hour Meter (See figure 1, Item E)

The hour meter is located on the front display. You must toggle screens using LCD display button. The hour meter indicates the number of hours the machine has operated. It displays brush motor, vacuum motor, traverse motor and total key on times.

Battery Meter (See figure 1, Item F)

The battery meter indicates the relative charge on the battery pack. The battery meter is located on screen 1 on the front display. See page 7.

Solution Flow Control (See figure 1, Item C)

The solution flow switch regulates the flow of chemical solu- tion to the floor. To increase the flow, toggle (+). To decrease the flow, toggle (-). To shut off the solution, toggle - until no indicators are visible on display. NOTE: DO NOT run dry!

NOTE: No solution will flow when the machine does not traverse.
