FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK

The solution tank ﬁ ll (3) is located at the left rear corner of the machine and has a 75 gallon (284 liter) maximum capacity. Fill the tank with the proper dilution of cleaning chemical mixed with water according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. If using a powdered chemical, mix it with water in a bucket before putting it into the machine’s solution tank. NOTE: DO NOT ﬁ ll the tank past the Maximum Level on the Water Level Gauge (24). NOTE: AXP/EDS machines can either be used conventionally with detergent mixed in the tank or the AXP/EDS detergent dispensing system can be used. When using the AXP/EDS detergent dispensing do not mix detergent in the tank, plain water should be used.

CAUTION!

Use only low-sudsing, non-ﬂ ammable, non-caustic cleaning chemicals intended for machine application.

DETERGENT SYSTEM PREPARATION AND USE (AXP/EDS MODELS ONLY)

Fill the detergent cartridge with a maximum of 2.2 gallons (8.32 Liters) of detergent. SERVICE NOTE: Remove the detergent cartridge from the detergent box prior to ﬁ lling to avoid spilling detergent on the machine. It is recommended that a separate cartridge be used for each detergent you plan to use. The detergent cartridges have a white decal on them so you can write the detergent name on each cartridge to avoid mixing them up. The detergent cartridge has a Magnetic Slider (A) on one end that needs to be set to the proper dilution ratio according to the dilution instructions on the manufacturer’s bottle. Slide the Magnet Slider (A) to the appropriate location on Detergent Dilution Ratio Decal (B). When installing a new cartridge, remove the Cap (C) and place the cartridge in the detergent box. Install the Dry Break Cap (D) as shown. The system should be purged of previous detergent when switching to a different detergent. SERVICE NOTE: Move machine over ﬂ oor drain before purging because a small amount of detergent will be dispensed in the process.

To Purge When Changing Chemicals:

1 Disconnect and remove the detergent cartridge. 2 Turn the Key Switch (CC) ON and press the Detergent ON/OFF Switch (RR) for at least 2 seconds. NOTE: Once activated the purge process takes 10 seconds. See

illustration on next page for Detergent System indicators. Normally one purge cycle is adequate to purge the system.

To Purge Weekly:

1 Disconnect and remove the detergent cartridge. Install and connect a Cartridge ﬁ lled with clean water 2 Turn the Key Switch (CC) ON and press the Detergent ON/OFF Switch (RR) for at least 2 seconds. NOTE: Once activated the purge process takes 10 seconds. See

illustration on next page for Detergent System indicators. Normally one purge cycle is adequate to purge the system. The Detergent Box (E) has a Detergent Level Viewing Slot (F) for keeping track of how much detergent is remaining in the cartridge. When the detergent level is nearing the bottom of this slot it is time to reﬁ ll or replace the cartridge.

General Use:

The detergent (AXP/EDS) system is enabled when the Key Switch (CC) is turned on and reverts to the last state (Chem On or Chem Off) it was in prior to the last power down. The current Solution Flow Rate (VV) and the last used Detergent Ratio (WW) (if in “Chem On” state) are displayed. The Status LED (YY) indicates the status of the system as follows:

GREEN: Solution not low and chemical pump ON (pumping solution and chemical) BLINKING GREEN: Purge has been activated LED OFF: Solution ﬂ ow position = 0 or solution solenoid is OFF ORANGE: Solution ON and Chemical OFF (pumping solution only) BLINKING RED: Solution low and chemical pump ON (pumping solution only)

No detergent is dispensed until the scrub system is activated and the Drive Pedal (MM) pushed forward. The detergent ratio can be varied by subsequently pressing the Detergent Ratio Increment and Decrement Switches (SS & TT). The detergent ﬂ ow rate increases or decreases with the solution ﬂ ow rate but the detergent ratio remains the same unless changed. During scrubbing, the detergent system can be turned off at any time by pressing the Detergent ON/ OFF Switch (RR) to allow scrubbing with water only. On AXP/ EDS models the solution ﬂ ow rate (40%-100%) is electronically controlled and is displayed (VV) on the AXP/EDS display panel as shown below. SERVICE NOTE: Follow the “To Purge Weekly” instructions above if the machine is going to be stored for an extended period of time or if you plan to discontinue use of the detergent (AXP/EDS) system. The Display Panel (UU) will display an Error Code “E1” (XX) in the lower left corner if the magnetic slider circuit board (ZZ) becomes disconnected or malfunctions.

OPERATING THE MACHINE

This is a rider-type automatic ﬂ oor sweeping and scrubbing machine. It is designed to sweep up debris, lay down cleaning solution, scrub the ﬂ oor, and vacuum dry all in one pass. The sweeping and scrubbing operations can also be performed separately.

The controls were designed with one touch operation in mind. For single pass scrubbing the user can simply depress one switch and all scrub functions on the machine will be ready to go. For sweeping, the operator can simply lower the main broom and all sweeping functions will be ready to go.

Use the Drive Pedal (MM) to control the speed of the machine. The speed of the machine will increase as the pedal is pushed closer to the

ﬂ oor. Do not press the Drive Pedal (MM) until the Main Power Switch (CC) has been turned on.

SWEEPING

Follow the instructions in preparing the machine for use section of this manual. 1 While seated on the machine, adjust the seat and steering wheel to a comfortable operating position using the adjustment controls (PP)

and (LL). 2 Release the Parking Brake (OO). To transport the machine to the work area, apply even pressure with your foot on the front of the Drive

Pedal (MM) to go forward or the rear of the pedal for reverse. Vary the pressure on the foot pedal to obtain the desired speed. 3 Push the Lower Hopper Switch (Z) to make sure the hopper is seated properly. 4 Move the Main Broom Lever (FF) to the SWEEP (middle notch) position to lower and enable the main broom. NOTE: The dump door

opens automatically when the main broom (FF) is lowered and closes when the broom is raised. Use the FULL FLOAT (last notch forward) position only when sweeping extremely rough or uneven ﬂ oors. Use at other times will only

increase broom wear. 5 When sweeping dry ﬂ oors, push the Dust Control Switch (T) to turn ON the dust control system. When sweeping ﬂ oors with puddles, push the Dust Control Switch (T) to turn OFF the dust control system before the machine enters a

puddle. Turn the dust control system back ON when the machine is back on completely dry ﬂ oor. When sweeping wet ﬂ oors, keep the Dust Control Switch (T) OFF at all times. 6 Lower the Side Broom(s) (P) when sweeping along walls or curbs. Raise the Side Broom(s) (U) when sweeping in open areas. Push

and hold the Side Broom ON/DOWN Switch (P) to lower and start the side broom motor(s). NOTE: Hold the switch until the side

broom(s) have lowered to the desired level. Side broom sweeping pattern is adjusted by pushing switches (P & U) until the desired

amount of down pressure is achieved. NOTE: If the side broom(s) were not raised and turned OFF after last use, they will automatically

lower and turn ON when the main broom is lowered and starts. 7 Drive the machine straight forward at a quick walking speed. Drive the machine slower when sweeping large amounts of dust or debris

or when safe operation dictates slower speeds. Overlap passes 6 inches (15 cm). 8 If dust comes out of the broom housing while sweeping, the Dust Control Filter (17) may be clogged. Push the Shaker Switch (S) to

clean the dust control ﬁ lter. The dust control system (T) will automatically turn OFF while the shaker is running and turn ON after the

shaker turns OFF (the shaker runs for 20 seconds). 9 Check behind the machine occasionally to make sure that the machine is picking up debris. Dirt left behind in the path of the machine

usually indicates that the machine is moving too fast, the broom needs to be adjusted, or the hopper is full.

EMPTYING THE HOPPER

WARNING!

1 Push the Shaker Switch (S) to remove excess dirt from the dust control ﬁ lter. SERVICE NOTE: For best shaker performance always

run the shaker with the hopper fully down.

2 Drive the machine close to a large trash receptacle and hold the Raise Hopper Switch (AA) until the hopper is all the way up. NOTE:

The dump door automatically closes when switch (AA) is pushed. You regain control of the dump door as soon as the hopper begins to

raise so you can dump at any height if necessary. 3 Move the machine forward until the hopper is over the receptacle, then press the Open Dump Door Switch (V) to open the dump door

and empty the hopper. 4 Check the back of the hopper and the front of the broom housing. Use a broom, if necessary, to remove litter from these areas. The

back of the hopper must seal tightly against the front of the broom housing for proper operation. 5 Back the machine away from the receptacle until the hopper will clear it, and then lower the hopper (Z). NOTE: The dump door will

automatically open when sweep function is resumed.
