SCRUB SWITCH
The scrub switch controls the scrubbing
operations. The scrub switch also sets the scrub
brush pressure.
The scrubbing operations include the functions
described below . When the machine is moving
forward, the scrub head lowers and the scrub
brushes activate. The scrub head will move into
the edge scrub position if the edge scrub switch
(option) is pressed. The rear squeegee will lower
and the vacuum fan will start. The solution system
will start, if the solution flow switch is on. Also, the
optional ES system and detergent pump will start
if the switches are on. The engine speed will
change to fast.
Start: Press the scrub switch.
Stop: Press the scrub switch again.
Scrub brush pressure: Press and hold the scrub
switch. The brush pressure will scroll through
three settings. The pressure setting selected
when the switch is released will be the new
default brush pressure setting.
Thebrushpressurecanbesetintothreedifferent
positions. Under normal conditions, the brush
pressure should be set in the minimum settings
(one or two indicators above switch are lit). Under
heavy grime conditions, the brush pressure
should be set in the maximum setting (three
indicators above switch are lit). Travel speed and
floor conditions will affect the scrubbing
performance.
NOTE: The brush pressure setting, and the
detergent flow rate will default to the last settings
used when the scrubbing operations are started
again.
NOTE: The scrub head will raise when the
directional pedal is in the neutral position. The
rear squeegee will raise when the directional
pedal is in the reverse position.

SQUEEGEE SWITCH
Home
Find...
Go To..
The squeegee switch controls the position of the
rear squeegee. The rear squeegee can be
operated separately from the scrub brushes for
the purpose of double scrubbing.
Double scrubbing is the process of making two or
more passes over a heavily soiled area. The first
pass is made with the rear squeegee raised to
allow the solution to soak into the floor.
Lower: Press the squeegee switch. The indicator
light next to the switch will illuminate.
Raise and stop: Press the squeegee switch. The
indicator next to the switch goes off. There will be
a slight delay before the vacuum shuts off.
NOTE: The rear squeegee lowers and scrubbing
vacuum starts automatically when the scrubbing
operations start.
NOTE: The rear squeegee will raise and the
scrubbing vacuum will shut off after a short delay
when the machine travels in reverse.
OPERATION
NOTE: The rear squeegee will raise and the
scrubbing vacuum fan will shut off after a short
delay when the scrubbing operations are shut off.
EDGE SCRUB SWITCH (OPTION)
The edge scrub switch extends the scrub head to
the right to allow close edge scrubbing.
Edge scrub out: Press the edge scrub switch
during scrubbing. The indicator light next to the
switch will illuminate.
Edge scrub in: Press the edge scrub switch. The
indicator light next to the switch will go out.

NOTE: When the ES switch is on and the water
levels in the tanks are at the proper levels, there
will be a slight delay before the ES pump turns on.
RECOVERY TANK FULL INDICATOR
The recovery tank full indicator will illuminate
when the recovery tank is full of recovered
solution. All scrubbing functions will stop
automatically soon after the recovery tank
becomes full. Drain the recovery tank as soon as
possible after the indicator illuminates. The
indictor light will remain lit until the tank is drained.

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

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.
Fast speed: Press and hold the engine speed
switch until the right indicator light illuminates.
This speed is for transporting, sweeping, and
scrubbing.

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.
