How to Operate the Squeegee and the Vacuum
Motor
The squeegee wipes the floor while the vacuum motor
removes the dirty solution from the floor. To operate the
squeegee, follow this procedure:
1. To lower the squeegee and start the vacuum motor,
press the squeegee up/down switch to the down
position (figure 24). NOTE: The vacuum motor
will start immediately when the down position
of the switch is pressed, and the squeegee will
lower.
2. To raise the squeegee, press the squeegee up/
down switch to the up position (figure 24). The
squeegee will then raise and the vacuum motor will
shut off after short delay NOTE: The center
position of the squeegee up/down switch is for
use with one touch control.
NOTE: The squeegee will rise automatically when
traversing in reverse during scrubbing operations.
How to Operate the Solution Flow
The solution is used to loosen and remove dirt from the floor.
The amount of solution applied can be adjusted to five
different levels to accommodate many different floor
conditions. These different levels are shown on the LCD
display on the front of the machine. To adjust the amount
of solution applied, use the Solution Flow Switch (figure 25).
NOTE: There are five different settings on the display.
See figure 26, A.
To increase solution flow:
1. Press the “ + ” side of the switch (figure 25).
2. Press and hold the “ + ” switch to achieve the desired
level of solution flow.
To decrease solution flow:
.
1. Press the “ - “ side of the switch (figure 25).
2. Press and hold the “ - “ side of the switch to achieve the
desired level of solution flow.
How to Operate the Brush Pressure
The brushes are used to supply agitation for the solution,
which improves the cleaning process. The amount of brush
pressure applied can be adjusted to five different levels to
accommodate many different floor conditions. These
different levels are shown on the LCD display on the front of
the machine (figure 26, B). To adjust the amount of brush
pressure, use the brush up/down switch (figure 27).
To increase brush pressure:
1. Press the “ + ” side of the switch (figure 27).
2. Press and hold the “ + ” switch to achieve maximum
level of pressure.
To decrease brush pressure:
.
1. Press the “ - “ side of the switch (figure 27).
2. Press and hold the “ - “ side of the switch to achieve
minimum or no brush presssure.
