GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS 120V

THIS PRODUCT IS FOR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY

ELECTRICAL:
In the USA this machine operates on a 15 amp nominal 120V, 60 Hz, A.C. power circuit. The amp, hertz, and voltage are listed on the data label found on each machine. Using voltages above or below those indicated on the data label will cause serious damage to the motors.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

For use on a nominal 120-volt circuit with a grounded plug that looks like the plug in FIGURE A. A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor in FIGURE C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in FIGURE B, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (FIGURE A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, lug or similar that extends from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

• EXTENSION CORDS: It is recommended to only use the supplied power cord. However, when the use of an extension cord is unavoidable, use only three-wire 12/3 or larger gauge approved extension cords that have threeprong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the machine’s plug. Replace or repair any damaged cords or plugs.
• SAFETY LABEL LOCATION: If at any time the safety labels become illegible, contact your authorized representative for prompt replacement.

WARNING

Spray System Preparation

• Fill the bottle cartridge with the suggested cleaning solution.
• Prime the pump system by moving the valve lever to the vertical position and depressing spray switch for 30 seconds.
• By adjusting the valve lever you can vary the spray pressure. The further you move the lever counterclockwise upwards, the higher the water pressure. A horizontal position means maximum water output at maximum pressure.
• To turn the machine on, press the power button on the end of the left handle.

Spray Jets
Adjust spray jets on the machine base to the desired position. For most floor cleaning applications, adjust the spray jets so they spray about 6 inches (15 cm) in front of the base.

Adjusting Height

• Set handle position to desired height by pulling and releasing the black knob with the left hand.
• While holding the black knob out, raise or lower the handle frame with your right hand.
• To secure the handle frame, release the black knob so that it locks firmly into one of the holes provided.
• Position “0” is off and position “I” is on.

CAUTION
Make sure a suitable pad or brush is mounted before starting the machine. Immediate contact with the floor and driver plate, without a pad, can lead to serious damage to the floor and/or the machine.

Process of Cleaning

• For effective floor cleaning, move the machine forward and backward. It is recommended to wet the floor as you move the machine forward, releasing the solution button when you move the machine backward.
• To increase the pressure and cleaning effect on certain floor types like tile and grout, you can lift the machine frame up, raising the wheels off the ground. When lifting the wheels off the ground the full weight of the machine lies on the machine base.

CAUTION

• Make sure the surface to be cleaned is not damaged by the increase in pressure.
• Omit this measure on very sensitive floors.

End of the Application
Turn off the machine by turning the on/off switch to “O”. If a cleaning solution was used, fill the bottle cartridge with water and spray out a system for 30 seconds. Make sure to not let the solution come in contact with the motor.

Storage
To avoid damage to the handle frame, do NOT lay the machine frame on the floor as done with other traditional cleaning equipment. Remove the pad from the driver’s plate by pulling it down firmly. Put the machine frame in an upright position by pulling the black knob with the left hand and moving the handle frame upwards with the right hand. The black knob should lock firmly in the top hole.

CAUTION

• To allow for easy transportation of the machine, remove the weight kit if used. Use tie-down straps to secure the machine to the truck or trailer during transport. It is recommended to completely drain or remove the solution tank prior to transporting.
• To easily roll the machine, push your foot on the back wheel axle and pull the handle towards you. Moving machine similar to a dolly. Always store with the base in the upright position.

Lifting and Carrying
Without a ramp, we recommend that 2 people lift the machine in and out of the vehicle setting the wheels down first, then base. Lock the handle in a lower position. Make sure that the machine base rests on a pad so that the grip surface of the driver plate does NOT get damaged or hooked onto a carpeted surface.

WARNING

• Grip the machine from each side as shown. Do NOT grip too close to the machine base. If the base should flip upwards it can cause serious hand injury.
• Lift machine with a back-friendly posture. And then secure the machine firmly so it will not move.

Weight Kit Installation

• Place the weight kit (40 lbs.) on top of the mounting plates located on the sides of the machine base.
• Put the 4 screws into the holes provided on the weight plates and fasten them by turning clockwise.
• Once the screws have threaded at least 5 full turns, tighten wing nuts by turning clockwise, until the weights fit securely to the base.

CAUTION

• Make sure that the weights are securely attached to the base. Loose weights can cause serious damage.
• For storage and transport, we recommend removing the weight kit. The machine can be transported more easily without the weights.

Brush Installation

• Put the machine base in an upright position, sitting on the foot of the bumper.
• Remove the driver plate by removing the four countersink screws in the center of the plate using an electric screwdriver.

WARNING

• It is important to only use a # 3 Phillips head screwdriver bit. Smaller bit sizes can damage the screw heads and leave sharp edges, which can tear or snag the pads. Damaged screws can cause further damage.
• Mount the brush with the same countersink screws used for mounting the driver plates.
  • NOTE: Tighten the screws sufficiently to avoid disengagement of the brush from the machine during operation.

To avoid stripping the screws, do NOT over-tighten. An electric screwdriver with a clutch will ensure that stripping will NOT occur.

SuperZorb Pad

• Our exclusive SuperZorb pad is made of a special cotton and polyester blend. One of the primary components that help to extract an essential amount of soil from the carpet fibers. They also play an important role to achieve fast dry times.
• SuperZorb pads, used on both sides, cleans approximately 30,000 sq. ft. (2800m²) with up to 100 washes. This of course depends upon floor type and level of soil. SuperZorb pads are also machine washable. Allow to air dry.

UltraLift Pad

• The UltraLift pad can be used on stone, concrete, VCT, marble and porous surfaces.
• Each pad can clean an approximate area of 4,000 sq. ft. (372m²) depending on floor type and level of soil.

AkwaStrip Pad
The AkwaStrip pad is a chemical-free stripping pad made of a unique material filled with diamonds. Used for deep cleaning and to remove wax off of vinyl, VCT, linoleum, wood, safety tiles and more. Used on both sides, can clean approximately 2,500 to 5,000 sq. ft. (230 to 460m²), depending on floor type and the level of wax/soil. Thoroughly rinse with clean water after use.

Multi-Purpose Scrub Brush
The bristles of the brush are made of high-quality nylon. The unique brush design is ideal for cleaning tile and grout, smooth concrete, rubber flooring, and other microporous surfaces such as porcelain and safety tiles. It can also be used for any other hard surfaces.

CAUTION

• The use of the multi-purpose brush may splash in certain applications. Take appropriate measures or use a splash guard to prevent the wetting of walls and other obstacles.
• Rinse the brush as needed with clean water after each use. Depending on usage and care, you can use the multi-purpose brush for many years.
  • NOTE ON STORAGE: Never store the multi-purpose brush with the bristles down. This can deform the bristles, damage the brush, and reduce the cleaning performance.

You can bring deformed bristles back into their original form by heating them with a heat gun.

MAINTENANCE

APPLICATION ON DIFFERENT FLOORS

Carpet Cleaning

• Vacuum the carpet thoroughly before cleaning. Large dirt particles are removed, allowing the application to be more effective.
• Apply solution while moving forward.
• Clean by going forward and backwards 2 to 3 times, while applying solution on the first pass in order to keep the drying time low. Depending on soil level and nature of the carpet, this process can be shortened or extended. As required, carpets can be vacuumed again after cleaning.

Cleaning Hard Floors
Remove dust and coarse dirt from the surface before cleaning. Choose a suitable pad according to the application. Place the pad in the center of the driver. Gently lower the head on to the floor. Moving forward and backwards while adding water to the surface. Use cleaning solution as needed. Depending on soil contamination and floor type, this process can be shortened or extended.

Cleaning the Machine
Clean the machine and bearing with a soft cloth and a neutral pH cleaner. Regular cleaning of the bearing is required to prevent build-up that will cause it to seize up.

Changing the Driver Grip Face
Remove the 10 outer screws that fasten the grip face disc on the driver plate. To save time, use an electric screwdriver with a #3 Phillips head bit.

WARNING
The #3 Phillips head bit is slightly larger than the standard size. It is important that you are using a #3 Phillips head bit, as smaller bits can damage the screw heads and produce sharp edges which can damage the cleaning pads. Attach a new grip face disc to the driver plate using the 10 screws. Make sure that the screws are very tight, not loose. If the screws are too loose, it can cause damage to the grip face disc. Ensure that the 4 holes in the middle of the grip face disc are aligned with the screws located on the driver plate. An exact alignment allows an easy removal and installation of the driver plate.
