The Bravo® -Stripper removes bonded, flexible floor covering in strips. It uses an
oscillating system, i.e. the blade performs a circular movement. This movement results
in a lateral cutting. This could make the stripper swing sideways if you want to remove
stiff flooring or aggressive adhesive. In this case using the device may be limited due to
its system.
Before starting work, the
flooring needs to be cut
into strips of the blade’s
width. To begin, cut one
strip crosswise. Then lift
the flooring slightly in
order to get the blade
underneath it. We
recommend to cut the
first strip at right angles
to the main working
direction. By so doing
access to the next strips
is made easier.
Cut the strips smaller if the floor covering is bonded very securely, e.g. with an
epoxy adhesive.
The blades are sharpened by the floor pavement. Therefore the blade has to be
changed only if it is twisted or becomes worn.
- Hand clutch
The hand clutch is located in front of the handle of the machine. Engage the motor
drive by pushing the clutch forward/down. By pulling the clutch upwards
the Bravo® Stripper stops.
Note: do not run the machine for a long while (e.g. during a break) with the
motor drive switched on and the clutch disengaged.
Note: after changing the inclination of the handle, it may be necessary to readjust
the handle attachment of the clutch. See also Chapter 5.4 “Adjusting the handle”.
