MACHINE OPERATION
PRE-CLEANING CHECKLIST:
Read and understand the complete Operator’s Manual before operating the machine along with fi lling out and sending in a Machine Installation Form.
1. Check Battery Gauge on the Control Panel. Make
sure Batteries are fully charged before using.
2. Check the condition of the Pads or Brushes.
3. Check the condition of the Squeegee Blades.
4. Raise the Scrubdeck and Squeegee before
transporting then transport the machine to the fi lling station.
5. Turn the machine OFF ( ). Remove key.
6. Fill the Tank with up to 23 gallons of clean water either
at the fi ll port (A) (SEE BELOW).

DANGER
EXPLOSION RISK! Flammable materials can cause an explosion or fi re. Do NOT use fl ammable materials in Tank or pick up.
CAUTION
TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THIS MACHINE:
Use APPROVED detergents only
Water temperature must not exceed 130˚F/54˚C
Do NOT use high-percentage Bleach mixture
OPERATING HINTS:
1. Observe the amount of solution the machine is dispensing on the fl oor and adjust to the desired fl ow. To increase the solution fl ow rate, press the Solution Control Lever forward. To shut the solution OFF ( ) completely, just release the Foot Pedal, or use dash mounted solution switch ON ( ) / OFF ( ).
2. Keep an eye on the clear Vacuum cover to make sure that there is not any foamy buildup in the Recovery Tank. If excess foam begins to develop, stop and drain tank and pour a recommended foam control solution into the Recovery Tank. Foam is usually an indication of excessive soap.
7. Add APPROVED cleaning chemical to the Tank. Use the proper dilution ratio indicated on the bottle. Contact us at 1(800)-634-4060 or +001-262-681-3583 if unsure.

3. Always operate on fl at, solid surfaces at lower speeds when scrubbing around walls and objects. You should reduce the speed to maintain control when turning. Don’t operate on ramps or incline.
4. If Squeegee starts to streak, raise and wipe the Blades with a clean cloth. If the problem continues, check the Squeegee Hose for clogs and the Squeegee Blades for wear or damage and rotate if needed. You may need to pre-sweep before scrubbing. (Only Use OEM
Parts)
5. Change or turn over Brushes / Pads when dirty.
6. Stay clear of objects protruding from the fl oor such as sockets, grates, etc, for they will damage the Brushes / Pads and Squeegee Blades.
7. Always keep an eye on your gauges. They let you know the status of a particular system at a glance. If your battery gauge is reading low you must stop immediately and recharge. Running the Batteries dead will result in permanent damage to the Batteries.
8. When you run out of solution, raise the Scrubdeck and continue to Vacuum the remaining water until it is all consumed. The Solution Sight Tube is used to indicate the level of detergent remaining in the Tank.
- 18 - RS-OP-EN

BATTERY MAINTENANCE GUIDE
SAFETY:
DANGER
Explosive hydrogen gas forms when Batteries are charging. An open fl ame or spark can cause this gas to explode. Serious personal injury or property damage could occur. Only charge the Batteries in this machine in a well ventilated area.
WARNING
Before you service a Battery, always wear face protec­tion, protective gloves and protective clothing. Battery acid or battery explosion can cause serious injuries.
WARNING
The Batteries in this machine produce hazardous voltage which can cause electrical shock, burns and/ or electrocution. Always disconnect Batteries before servicing this machine.
WARNING
The Batteries in this machine contain sulfuric acid, which causes burns to skin. If battery acid contacts clothing or skin, rinse the effected area with cold water immediately. If battery acid gets on your face or in your eyes, fl ush the area immediately with cold water and seek medical attention.
WATERING:
Add water, NEVER ACID, to cells (distilled water recommended).
Do not over water
Before charging the Batteries, only add water if the plates are exposed. Add just enough water to cover the plates, then charge the batteries. Once fully charged, add water to the proper level as indicated below.
For full charge plus series Batteries add water to the maximum water level indicator (A).
Water watering, secure vent caps back on Batteries.
WATER LEVEL SHOULD BE 1/8'' ABOVE PLATES
A
WARNING
Dress safely. Do not wear rings or metal wrist watches when servicing this machine, as they can cause an electrical short circuit which can cause serious burns.
INSPECTION AND CLEANING:
Keep Batteries clean and dry from residue
Check that all vent caps are tight
Use a solution of baking soda and water to clean if acid residue on Batteries or corrosion on the terminals
Protective spray of petroleum jelly should be applied to terminals to reduce corrosion
STORAGE:
Batteries should be fully charged prior to and during storage
Never store discharged Batteries
Store Batteries in a cool, dry place but never below freezing - Recharge in storage a minimum of every 30 days
Recharge Batteries before putting them back into service
RS-OP-EN - 25 -
MAINTENANCE
DAILY MAINTENANCE:
1. Remove the clean Pads or Brushes. Never use soiled Pads when cleaning. Replace Pads when they become packed with residue.
2. Remove and clean debris from the Vacuum Shut-Off screen and Drain Saver Basket located inside the Recovery Tank.
3. Drain and rinse Recovery Tank thoroughly.
4. Inspect Vacuum Hose for any objects obstructing the air fl ow.
5. Raise Squeegee and wipe Blades with a clean cloth. Store Squeegee in the raise position to prevent damage or setting of the Blades.
6. Wipe down machine if needed. Use a non-abrasive, non-solvent cleaner or a clean damp cloth.
7. Recharge the Batteries if needed.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Check Battery water level in each cell of the Batteries and fi ll as needed. Always use distilled water to refi ll Batteries. Batteries should be fi lled approximately
3
4'' to 1'' above the plates. Overfi lling will cause the Batteries to leak during charging. The charging process creates gas bubbles inside the Battery, which effectively increases the volume of the electrolyte.
WATER LEVEL SHOULD BE 1/8'' ABOVE PLATES
3. Check to see if Battery cables are tightened. Tighten, if needed:
OEM Trojan WET Batteries - 100 in/lbs OEM Full River AGM Batteries - 90in/lbs
4. Grease Squeegee Pivot Point.
YEARLY MAINTENANCE:
Call your local dealer for yearly maintenance.
STORING MACHINE:
1. Be sure to fl ush the Tanks out completely. To thoroughly fl ush out any solution chemicals in solution line and valves, refi ll Solution Tank with a few gallons of warm clean water and run machine until Tank is empty.
2. Open the Recovery Tank lid to promote air circulation.
3. Raise Scrubdeck and Squeegee.
CHECKING BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY:
Use a hydrometer to check the Battery specifi c gravity. Checking Gravity:
• Hydrometer
• Battery
NOTICE
Do not take readings immediately after adding distilled water. If water and acid are not thoroughly mixed, the reading may not be accurate.
2. Clean Battery tops to prevent corrosion.
3. Flip Scrubdeck Brushes / Pads.
4. Drain and rinse tanks thoroughly. To thoroughly fl ush out any solution chemicals in solution line valves, refi ll solution tank with a few gallons of warm, clean water and run the machine until tank is empty.
5. Remove and Clean Solution Filter Screen.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Check Scrubdeck and Squeegee lifting cables for wear and spring tension.
2. Check machine for water leaks and loose nuts and bolts.
Check the hydrometer against this chart

NOTICE
If the readings are taken when the battery electrolyte
is any temperature other than 80°F(27°C), the reading
must be temperature corrected. To fi nd the corrected specifi c gravity reading when the temperature of the
battery electrolyte is other than 80°F(27°C): add (+) to
the specifi c gravity reading 0.004 (4 points), for each
10°F(6°C) above 80°F(27°C). Subtract (-) from the specifi c reading 0.004 (4 points), for each 10°F(6°C) below 80°F(27°C).
