Operations To Begin Scrubbing Priming Pump When operating the machine around people, pay close attention for unexpected movement. Use extra caution around children. If the solution system has gone dry or has been unused for a period of time, it may be necessary to follow the pump priming procedure. Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up. 1. Fill solution tank. 1. Stand on the operator platform. Throttle pedal must be in neutral position. 2.
Operations To Stop Scrubbing Double Scrub 1. Rotate the function knob to either transport position. The brush motors will stop and the scrub deck will rise to the park position. After 10 seconds the squeegee will raise, and 10 seconds later the vacuum motor will turn off. This delay is to clear the vacuum hose of recovered solution. For floors which are heavily soiled or have thick accumulations of floor finish, may not clean sufficiently with one pass.
Operations RECOVERY TANK DOME SOLUTION TANK 1. Remove the recovery tank dome. 2. Pull the solution drain hose from its mounting pocket. Unscrew the cap, then lower hose in direction of drain. RECOVERY DRAIN HOSE 3. Remove the solution tank lid. 4. 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 tank. Damage may occur. NOTE: Never allow solution to remain in tank.
