Drain the recovery tank as soon as possible after the indicator illuminates. The indictor light will remain lit until the tank is drained.
20
8200 330060 (6-- 04)
DETERGENT PUMP SWITCH (OPTION)
Home
The detergent switch controls the amount of detergent that flows to the floor while scrubbing. When the machine is started, the detergent pump switch will default to the last setting used.
NOTE: The detergent pump switch will not activate unless the main scrub brushes are active, the machine is moving forward, and the solution switch is in the high or low position.
High: Press and hold the detergent pump switch until both indicator lights above the switch are illuminated. Release the switch.
Low: Press and hold the detergent pump switch until one indicator light above the switch is illuminated. Release the switch.
Off: Press and release the detergent pump switch until none of the indicator lights above the switch are lit.
OPERATION
ENGINE SPEED SWITCH
The engine speed switch controls the engine governed speed. When the left indicator light above the switch is illuminated, the engine is in idle speed. When the right indicator light above the switch is illuminated, the engine is in fast speed.
Idle speed: The engine will automatically start in
idle speed. To return the engine to idle from the fast engine speed, press and hold the engine
speed switch until the left indicator illuminates. The scrubbing and sweeping operations will turn off automatically.
NOTE: If the scrubbing operations are on when the idle speed is selected, the rear squeegee will raise and the scrubbing vacuum fan will shut off.

CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The circuit breakers are resetable electrical circuit protection devices. Their design stops the flow of current in the event of a circuit overload. Once a circuit breaker is tripped, it must be reset manually. Press the reset button after the breaker has cooled down.
If the overload that caused the circuit breaker to trip is still there, the circuit breaker will continue to stop current flow until the problem is corrected.
The circuit breakers are located in the operator compartment.
The chart lists the circuit breakers and the electrical components they protect.
