This is the User Manual for the PowerBoss Monitor Series Sweeper Scrubber.

This manual covers all Standard Monitor Series machine variations beginning May 2009.

We believe this machine will provide excellent service for many years.

However, the best results will be obtained if:

• The machine is operated with reasonable care.

• The machine is maintained regularly per the maintenance schedule provided in the User Manual.

• The machine is maintained with PowerBoss Inc. supplied or equivalent parts.

All right side and left side references to the machine (except for engine) are determined by facing the direction of forward travel. The front of the engine or engine fan faces the rear of the machine. Some hardware considered to be common or locally available has been omitted from the parts section to make this manual clear. Be sure to use equivalent hardware when replacement becomes necessary.

The Model and Serial Number of your machine is shown on the I.D. name plate. This information is needed when contacting Technical Support or when ordering parts. The I.D. plate is mounted on the console of the machine left of the operator and adjacent the main broom adjustment access door.

Parts may be ordered by phone,fax or e-mail from any PowerBoss parts and service center. Before ordering parts or supplies, be sure to have your machine model number and serial number handy. For your convenience Fill out the data block below for future reference.

FEATURES

ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY FEATURES

WATER CONSERVATION

Aqua-Stop saves water usage by 50%, water is released through a pump system providing greater control of water usage than gravity systems

CLEAN AIR

High-performance lter system dramatically reduces the release of dust and debris back into the air, dust vacuum ensures that dust is put directly into the hopper, bristle pattern on main broom increases dust control.

LOWER EMISSIONS

All gas and LP engines meet Tier 2 specications, catalyst mufers, battery operated available, diesel operated available, bio-diesel fuel can be used in Kubota engine

SAFER WORK ENVIRONMENT

Orange machines are highly visible to others in the workplace, simple controls reduce operator error, one-button scrub, horn, re in hopper indicator, effective braking system, “belly bar” prevents operator from being pinned behind machine when in reverse, parabolic squeegee picks up all water leaving the scrub path virtually dry for trafc, seat equipped with safety shut-off switch, also available: overhead guard, back-up alarm, warning beacon

CLEAN ENERGY

Bio-diesel fuel can be used in Kubota engines

CLEAN ENERGY

Aqua-Stop saves chemical usage by 50%, pump system for water and chemical release allows for better control of chemical usage, chemical metering system is available as an option and regulates chemical usage to the correct dose.
