HOW THE MACHINE WORKS The Saber Compact is a battery powered, hard floor scrubber intended for commercial use. The appliance applies a cleaning solution onto a hard floor, scrubs the floor with a brush, and then vacuums the soiled water back into the recovery tank. The machine's primary systems are the solution system, scrub system, recovery system. The traction model has a directional control system as well.

CONTROLS - TRACTION 1. SOLUTION CONTROL KNOB Controls solution flow to scrub deck. To increase flow, rotate knob clockwise. To decrease flow, rotate knob counterclockwise. 5. SQUEEGEE LIFT LEVER Raises and lowers the squeegee. To lower the squeegee, lift and pull the lever to the left and then lower. To raise the squeegee, lift the lever and push it to the right.
CONTROLS - TRACTION 9. SPEED CONTROL KNOB Controls the speed of the machine. To increase speed, rotate knob clockwise. To decrease speed, rotate knob counterclockwise. 10. BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR Indicates the charge level of the batteries. The meter display is divided into 10 vertical bars. Bars illuminated on the far right indicate full charge. Bars flashing near the left side indicate the batteries should be recharged. Further operation of the machine could damage the machine or the batteries.
MACHINE OPERATION PRE-RUN MACHINE INSPECTION Do a pre-run inspection to find possible problems that could cause poor performance or lost time from breakdown. Follow the same procedure each time to avoid missing steps. NOTE: See maintenance section for pre-run machine inspection checklist items. STARTING MACHINE NOTE: Perform pre-run machine check before operating machine. FOR SAFETY: Before starting machine, make sure that all safety devices are in place and operating properly. 4.
MACHINE OPERATION TO STOP SCRUBBING TO BEGIN SCRUBBING 1. Release the directional control button(s), if your machine is traction model. ! CAUTION When operating the machine around people, pay close attention for unexpected movement. Use extra caution around children. 2. Turn the scrub brush off. 3. Raise the scrub brush. ! WARNING Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up. 4. Raise the squeegee. 5. Turn the vacuum off. 1. Turn the machine power on. 6.
MACHINE OPERATION EMPTYING AND CLEANING TANKS 1. Park the machine next to a floor drain. Drain hoses are on the rear of the machine. 2. Turn the machine power off. SOLUTION TANK 1. Unhook the small drain hose from the retainer. Unscrew the T-handle plug enough to loosen it, then lower the hose in the direction of the drain. Slowly remove the plug from drain hose. 2. Remove the solution tank cover. 3. Flush the solution tank out with clean water and run several gallons of clean water through systems.
MAINTENANCE BATTERIES The batteries provide the power to operate the machine. The batteries require regular maintenance to keep them operating at peak efficiency. The machine batteries will hold their charge for long periods of time, but they can only be charged a certain number of times. To get the greatest life from the batteries, charge them when their charge level reaches 25% of a full charge. Use a hydrometer to check the charge level.
MAINTENANCE CHECKING BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY Use a hydrometer to check the battery specific gravity. TO CHARGE THE BATTERIES ! CAUTION When servicing machine, avoid contact with battery acid. ! WARNING WARNING Battery Check Batteries emit hydrogen gas. Explosion or fire can result. Keep sparks and open flame away. Keep covers open when charging. ! WARNING Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with batteries. CHECKING GRAVITY A. Hydrometer B.
MAINTENANCE 4. Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell. Before charging, add just enough distilled water to cover the plates. After charging is complete, add just enough distilled water to bring up the level to the indicator ring. If the water level is too high before charging, normal expansion rate of the electrolyte may cause an overflow. Resulting in a loss of battery acid balance and damage the machine. 1. Replace the battery caps, and leave them in place while charging. 2.
MAINTENANCE SCRUB BRUSHES NOTE: All original equipment brushes are equipped with “Perform Alert©”. This feature will tell the operator when it is time to replace the scrub brush. “Perform Alert©” brushes have pre-trimmed bright yellow tufts to indicate the length of a worn out brush. When the tufts in the scrub brush wear to a length equal to the yellow tufts, the scrub brush should be replaced.

MAINTENANCE SQUEEGEE BLADES DELUXE SQUEEGEE BLADES The front squeegee blade allows solution to pass through channels in the blade into the squeegee assembly while maintaining vacuum to provide lift. The front squeegee blade allows solution to pass through channels in the blade into the squeegee assembly while maintaining vacuum to provide lift. The front blade has four wear surfaces and can be rotated for extended life. The front blade should not require regular replacement under normal use.
MAINTENANCE TO ADJUST SQUEEGEE PITCH 1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Turn “ON” the key switch and vacuum switch. Lower the squeegee and drive forward at least 2 feet (60cm.). 2. With the squeegee down, stop the machine. Do not allow machine to roll back. FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing the machine, stop on level surface, turn off machine and remove key. 3. Determine the differences, if any, in deflection of the squeegee blade between each end and the middle.
MAINTENANCE SERVICE SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE DAILY Check batteries after charging; add water if necessary Check pad wear to prevent buildup of chemicals Check linkages and connectors for wear and damage Check hoses for wear, blockages, or damage Clean squeegee; check for adjustment; inspect for wear Check handles, switches, knobs, domes, and gaskets for damage Clean out recovery tank Clean out solution tank; remove and clean screen Clean outside of all tanks; check for damage Run vac motor for at least one mi
