maneuverability that enables an operator to cover large areas in a short time with the least amount of
effort. The machine can be made to operate without travel by balancing…
... KEEPING THE BRUSH PRESSURE ON THE FLOOR EQUAL. With a few minutes of
practice in a large area, you will have perfect fingertip control of the machine. This equipment is
equipped with trigger safety interlock. Refer to diagram pictured.
