machine (unlock it), then release it slowly.

- To lift the brush, press the pedal down until lift mechanism engages.

4. Turn on brush switch.

5. Adjust solution control feed lever.

6. Turn on vacuum switch.

7. Lower squeegee assembly.

After Use:

1. Turn off solution feed.

2. Switch off brush and raise.

3. Raise squeegee assembly.

4. Turn off vacuum motor.

Solution and recovery tanks should be emptied after every use.

MAINTENANCE:
When cleaning, servicing or maintaining the machine the power should be switched off.

Daily 1. Clean float assembly & squeegee blades. Vac filter.

2. Recharge batteries (check battery acid levels before and
after charging).
