INTRODUCTION This propane floor care equipment is manufactured in two basic concepts: the burnisher and the floor stripper. Both of these designs are truly PORTABLE equipment. Propane burnishers are best defined as ultra high speed burnishers with the staying power to produce superior high gloss floor surfaces. Upon contact with the floor, the burnisher should always be kept moving. The speed at which you walk will determine the results that you will obtain.

SAFETY PROPANE SAFETY INFORMATION Facts About LP Gas – Propane As a fuel, Propane gas is unmatched for both safety and dependability. It has been used as a domestic household fuel for over half a century, and for over thirty years as an internal combustion engine fuel. Propane is a highly flammable fuel that is contained under pressure as a liquid. Vaporized gas has a similar explosive force to gasoline and mixtures as low as 2% LP Gas to air may be ignited in a closed environment.
SAFETY RECOMMENDED PURGE PROCEDURES How to purge new LP-Gas Burnisher cylinders equipped with the Overfill Prevention Device: New containers may contain vapor, air, or other contaminants. It is essential that these be removed before filling the container and placing it into service. Air in the container will cause abnormally high pressure, with the result that the pressure relief valve may open. Air in the system is also likely to cause lean mixture, making ignition difficult.
SAFETY REFILLING & STORING PROPANE TANKS The NFPA Technical Committee prohibits the storage of such containers in buildings. There are few exceptions to this rule. In other words, propane tanks should NOT be stored in buildings used by the public or frequented by anyone passing through or who is working in the building. Full or empty, never leave tanks in small enclosed areas. The tank(s) must be in a secure, tamper-proof storage enclosure that provides safety from accident or vandalism.
SAFETY ENGINE EMISSIONS AND CO SAFETY The purpose of this document is to provide information on: • The potential effects of CO exposure • The methods to reduce the risk of CO poisoning • The methods used to determine the amount of potential exposure to CO produced by equipment All LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) powered engines, including this engine, produce Carbon Monoxide (CO). It is a FATAL POISON that is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and non-irritating gas.
SAFETY POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF CO EXPOSURE The information provided in the following overview has been condensed to provide the reader with a summary of the material presented. Summary: Potential Effects of CO Exposure • Work place/industry guidelines for CO exposure limits vary substantially from region to region (OSHA) Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for CO is 50 ppm, as an 8-hour time weighted average.
SAFETY Work Place/Industry Guidelines For CO Exposure Limits Limits for permissible exposure to CO vary substantially from region to region. City, State, and Industry requirements should be consulted prior to use of any equipment. The current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for CO is 50 ppm, as an 8-hour time weighted average (TW A).
SAFETY METHODS TO REDUCE THE RISKS OF CO POISONING • Air Exchange and CO Diffusion • Application Considerations (Burnishing versus Stripping) • Air Quality Monitoring • Room Size and Time Estimations • Maintenance of Equipment • Safety Equipment Available Air Exchange And CO Diffusion The most reliable method to prevent CO Poisoning is to ensure all the CO produced is vented outside. With wood stoves or gas heaters this is performed with ductwork that carries the exhaust and CO outside.
SAFETY Notice the CO concentration and the Effective Operating Zone with air exchange. The CO cloud is still concentrated in a small area. Note the "Dividing Zone" shown above, this is the line where airflow changes direction. In Model 2, air changes are cut in 1/2 as little or no CO crosses the Dividing Zone to be exhausted. Notice the CO concentration and the Effective Operating Zone (Expanded to the Dividing zone) with air exchange and forced air mixing.
SAFETY AIR QUALITY MONITORING Warning - Deployment of a monitor/detector is essential for the safe operation of any equipment that has the potential to produce CO. CO sensors/detectors became available on the mass market around 1978. The main differences between the technologies involved are battery or electric and Semiconductor or Biomimetic types. Detectors for carbon monoxide (CO) are manufactured and marketed for use in either the home or occupational industrial settings.
SAFETY Based on the CO production rates sown above the TWA would be exceeded in a 100 x 100 x 10 foot (empty) space after 3 hours with 2 air changes per hour. (Assumes no additional CO exposure during 8 hour period) The Graph above depicts the relationships of air exchange to time and CO ppm with cubic feet area and percent CO emissions remaining constant.
SAFETY The Graph above depicts the relationships of air exchange to time and CO ppm with cubic feet area and percent CO emissions remaining constant. Based on the CO production rates shown above the TWA would not be exceeded in a 100 x 750 x 10 foot (empty) space after 8 hours with 2 air changes per hour. (Assumes no additional CO exposure during 8 hour time period) MAINTENANCE OF EQUIPMENT The proper maintenance of equipment is vital to safe operation.
OPERATION PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE NOTE: Before using any type of powered equipment, proper safety dictates you should visually inspect it. 1. Adjust the HANDLE to a comfortable height and tighten the bolts. 2. BONNET FILTER - Make sure the bonnet air filter atop the engine is clean. It should be changed hourly and thoroughly cleaned before reuse. 3. Check the engine OIL LEVEL. Screw the dipstick in to get a accurate reading. 4.
OPERATION STARTING THE ENGINE 1. Plug in 12 volt starter cord on models so equipped. 2. We recommend setting the throttle on models with 12 volt starter to the following positions: The Kawasaki twin cylinder engines are designed to be started in the IDLE throttle position. This creates a vacuum necessary to open the lock-off valve inside the regulator. Actuation of the throttle lever will keep the lock-off valve from opening and the engine from getting fuel so the engine will not start.
MAINTENANCE EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION To protect the environment in which we will live, the manufacturer has incorporated (1) crankcase emission and (2) exhaust emission control systems (EM) in compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board. 1. Crankcase Emission Control System. A sealed-type crankcase emission control system is used to eliminate blow-by gases.
MAINTENANCE BELT REPLACEMENT Tilt the machine on its side (observing the following precautions) and block securely. NOTE: Do not tilt the machine (KAWASAKI twin cylinder) on its nose as this is where the carburetor is located. Turn the machine on either its left or right side. 1. Remove pad. 2. Use a suitable wrench to secure the top of the shaft and spin off the pad driver. 3. Remove old belt carefully and completely. 4. Install new belt and adjust the pressure of the tensioner 5. Reinstall pad driver.
MAINTENANCE TROUBLESHOOTING Note: When trouble occurs be sure to check for simple causes, which at first may seem too obvious to be considered. For example, a starting problem could be caused by fuel starvation due to an empty propane cylinder or an unopened service valve. If you don't check for this, starter burnout could result. 1.
MAINTENANCE PROBLEM Surging idle CAUSE Carburetor out of adjustment Pad is off center Pad driver is cracked Excessive Vibration Bearings in front end are worn Engine starts and idles, but will quit as the throttle is advanced 3-4 Faulty service valve SOLUTION Adjust idle screw (1/4” dia bright steel, Phillips head) located on the lower left side of carburetor (Viewed from operators position). Rotate clockwise to increase idle speed.
MAINTENANCE PROBLEM CAUSE The burnisher seems to run well but dies down when the pad is placed on the floor or soon thereafter Excessive noise from under burnisher Belt has stretched or is loose Starter barely turns the engine over or the solenoid just clicks on 12 volt models The battery is low in charge Engine suddenly begins to backfire regularly Cracked spark plug boot SOLUTION To check for this, close the valve completely and then reopen very slowly while you listen for a "click" when the gas
