TO BEGIN SCRUBBING
When operating the machine around people, pay close attention for unexpected movement. Use extra caution around children.
Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up.
1.Lower the squeegee.
2.Turn the vacuum on.
3.Lower the scrub brush to the floor.
4.Turn the scrub brush on.
5.Push machine forward to begin scrubbing.
NOTE: Shut machine off immediately if water or foam is expelled from the machine.
6.Adjust the solution flow as necessary.
TO STOP SCRUBBING
1.Turn the scrub brush off.
2.Raise the scrub brush.
3.Raise the squeegee.
4.Turn the vacuum off.
DOUBLE SCRUB
For floors, which are heavily soiled or have thick accumulations of floor finish the machine may not clean sufficiently with one pass. In these cases it will be necessary to double scrub. To double scrub, make the first pass over the surface being cleaned with the squeegee up, vacuum off, the solution on, and brush down and on. This allows the solution to stay in contact with the soil while loosening the surface accumulation with the brush. Allow time for the first application to stay in contact with the floor.
MACHINE OPERATION
The length of time between the first and second pass depends on the amount of accumulation and the type of chemical being used. A second scrubbing with the squeegee down, vacuum on and again with solution and brush on will further loosen the soil. The additional application of solution will further assist the difficult cleaning job.
FOR SAFETY: When using machine, go slow on inclines and slippery services.
EMPTYING AND CLEANING TANKS
1.Park the machine next to a drain. Drain hoses are on the rear of the machine.
2.Turn the machine off.
SOLUTION TANK
1.Pull the small drain hose from the retainer. Lower the hose in the direction of the drain.
2.Remove the solution tank cover.
3.Flush the solution tank out with clean water and run several gallons of clean water through systems. Do not use water hotter than 140°F (60°C) to clean the tank, damage may occur.
NOTE: Never allow solution to remain in tank. Damage to tank, seals and valves could occur.
4.Replace drain hose to retainer.
RECOVERY TANK
1.Unhook the large drain hose from the retainer. Lower the hose in the direction of the drain. Do not stand in front of the end of the hose.
Recovered solution will come out with force. Slowly remove the plug from the drain hose.
2.Flush the recovery tank out with clean water. Do not use water hotter than 140°F (60°C) to clean the tank, damage may occur.
3.Clean off the float and check for free movement of the float ball.
4.Replace the drain plug and secure the drain hose in the retainer.
