key clockwise. To turn off the machine, turn the key
counter-clockwise. Turning off the key switch will
immediately stop the brushes, vac u um motors,
optional recycle pump, and also stop the actuators
for the deck and squeegee.
NOTE: Turning the key switch off during normal
running operation will stop all motors and actuators.
When the key is turned back on the system will
assume they are in the normal parked mode (s cr ub
deck up, squeegee up, and motors off). Any touch
panel command will send the selected system to the
working position regardless of the position it was in
when the key switch was turned off. This is normal
and will not damage machine.
FOR SAFETY: Always remove the key when
machine is unattended or during service to
prevent unauthorized movement.
B. DIRECTIONAL CONTROL PEDAL
This pedal controls the direction of travel and the
speed of the vehicle.
D. PARKING BRAKE

E. COMFORT ZONE OPERATOR SEAT
F. BRUSH MOTOR/LIFT SWITCH
One touch on the control panel “brush” switch
automatically lowers the scrub head to the “light
Scrub” position, turns on both brush drive motors,
turns on the vacuum motor, and lowers the
squeegee. Three sets of LED’s will light on the
touch panel. The first, indicates the brush pressure
setting. The second, shows that the brush motors is
lowering. The third lights to show the vacuum motor
has been activated as well as the squeegee.
Touching the switch again turns off the brushes and
returns the scrub deck to the up position. The two
LED indicators are turned off. Also the squeegee
will raise after a delay of 15 seconds and in an
additional 15 seconds the vacuum motor will turn off.
If the scrub deck is lowered without brushes installed
the brush motors will stop, the deck will raise and all
four of the brush pressure LED’s will flash
continuously until the brush s witc h has been
pressed once again.
Slowly pressing the front of the pedal causes the
machine to travel forward. Pressing the rear of the
pedal causes the vehicle to travel in reverse. The
vehicle speed can be controlled by varying the
pressure on the front of the pedal.

QUICK 98560 09/20/99
G. SQUEEGEE/VACUUM MOTOR SWITCH
A touch panel switch (with LED indicator) lowers the
squeegee and turns on the vacuum motors. This
switch will also shut off the vacuum motor/motors
and raise the squeegee if double scrubbing is
required. The LED will light when the squeegee is in
the down position. Pressing the switch again raises
the squeegee fully and turns off the vacuum motors
after approximately 15 seconds.
H. SOLUTION CONTROL
The slide lever mounted to the electric panel
controls the solution flow to the scrub deck. Pushing
the lever toward the down position allows full flow to
the floor. Pulling the lever to the up position
gradually reduces flow to full off. If the brush motors
are turned off a secondary valve automatically
interrupts the flow until the motors are turned on
again. This feature aides in preventing an
unintentional draining of the solution tank and allow
the operator to adjust the amount of solution to the
floor without resetting each time the scrubbing
operation is interrupted.
I. EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON
The emergency stop switch controls all battery power
to the machine. In an emergency that requires quick
disconnection of the batteries, push down firmly on
the red knob.
NOTE: The emergency disconnect should only be
used for emergencies and service. Repeated nonessential use well shorten the life of the connector.
Also, when all power is removed from the machine
the battery condition meter resets to a less than
accurate full charge position when power to restored.

panel. The horn is activated by pressing the horn
button.
J. HOUR METER
The hour meter located at the rear of the touch panel
records the number of hours the machine has been in
operation with the scrub brushes running. This
information is useful in determining when to service
the machine
K. BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR
The battery condition 6 LED’s indicated the present
charge of the battery. When only the LED near the
left side of the gauge is on, the batteries should be
recharged. Further operation of the machine could
damage the machine or batteries. The LED second
from left indicates 80% discharge signaling ideal time
to recharge batteries. The remaining 4 LED’s
indicate the approxim ate charge le ve l of the batteries .
When the machine is left overnight with less than a
full charge, the display may initially indicate a full
charge. It will also indicate a full charge if the
batteries are disconnected, than reconnected. After
a few minutes of operation the gauge will give the
correct charge level.
NOTE: See “Batteries” in maintenance section for
more information on battery maintenance.
N. CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The circuit breakers are circuit protection devices
designed to interrupt the flow of current in the event
of an electrical overload. When tripped, the circuit
breaker must be reset by pressing the exposed
button on the face of the affected circuit breaker. All
circuit breakers are located on the right side of the

MACHINE OPERATION
SCRUBBING WITH THE QUICK©
Plan the scrubbing pattern in advance. The longest
track is around the perimeter of the area to be
cleaned. For efficient operation, the runs should be
the longest possible without turning, stopping, or
raising and lowering scrub deck/squeegee. Overlap
the bush paths and avoid transporting over
previously cleaned areas.
The QUICK© will automatically raise the squeegee
slightly when reverse travel is selected. If the
machine is allowed to stand in neutral with the scrub
head down for more than 2 seconds, brush motors
stop, solution flow stops, and the scrub deck will
raise slightly. If either forward or reverse travel is
selected, the scrub head will lower to the preset
position and solution flow will continue in the same
settings once movement begins.
NOTE: In order to achieve the best possible results,
the area which is to be cleaned should be swept
before scrubbing. Large debris, strings, wire must
be removed to prevent being caught in brushes or
squeegee.
TO BEGIN SCRUBBING
The QUICK© uses a one touch system for turning
on the brushes and vacuum motor and lowering both
to the operating position.
! CAUTION
When operating the machine around people, pay
close attention for unexpected movement. Use
extra caution around children.
! WARNING
Flammable liquids and/or reactive metals can
cause explosions or fire! Do not pick up.
1. Place left foot on brake pedal or make sure
parking brake has been set.
2. With directional pedal in neutral turn key switch
to “ON”.
3. Release brake.
4. Press directional pedal to travel in the desired
direction and steer to the start of the scrub
pattern.
5. Press the brush switch (#1) on the console
touch pad. The vacuum motors will switch on,
the LED will light, and the squeegee will lower to
the floor. The brush motors will start, the scrub
deck will lower to the light scrub position, and
the solution will begin. Three set of LED’s (one
set of four lights indicating amount of brush
pressure, one light for brush motor on, and one
light for vacuum motor on/squeegee down will all
light. The brush light will blink until the selected
pressure is attained.
NOTE: Shut machine off immediately if water or
foam is expelled from the machine.
6. To double scrub touch the squeegee switch and
the squeegee will raise.
7. Adjust the brush pressure by touching switch on
the touch pad.
8. Adjust the solution valve with lever . Solut io n wi ll
not flow to the floor until the scrub deck is
activated.
9. Adjust ground speed and solution flow to suit
cleaning conditions.
NOTE: Once solution flow rate is set it is not
necessary to shut off solution when stopping
scrubbing. Solution flow is automatically shut off
when brush motors stop. When bush motors are
turned on, flow automatically res umes.

QUICK 98560 09/20/99
MACHINE OPERATION
TO STOP SCRUBBING
1. Press the brush motor switch (#1) on the console
touch pad. The motors will stop and the scrub
deck will raise to the park position. Nothing
further needs to be done. After 15 seconds the
squeegee will lift and the vacuum motor will run
an additional 15 seconds. These delays are
programmed to avoid leaving water between the
location the brush lifted and the sque ege e lifted,
and to clean the recovery hose.
2. Apply brake to stop machine.
3. Turn key switch off.
4. Set parking brake.
DOUBLE SCRUB
Floors which are heavily soiled or have thick
accumulations of floor finish may not clean
sufficiently with one pass. In these cases it will be
necessary to double scrub.
To double scrub, make the first pass over the surface
being cleaned with the squeegee up, the solution on,
and brushes down. This allows the solution to stay in
contact with the soil while loosening the sur f ac e
accumulation with the brushes. Allow time for the
first application to stay in contact with the floor.
Length of time between the first and second pass
depends on amount of accumulation and type of
chemical being used. A second scrubbing with the
squeegee down again the solution and brushes on
will further loosen the soil. The additional application
of solution will further assist the difficult cleaning job.
If desired the side squeegee may be locked in the up
position by raising squeegee and rotating latch.
EMPTYING AND CLEANING TANKS
RECOVERY TANK
1. Pull the solution lever all the way up to stop
solution flow if scrubbing is complete. Otherwise
raising the scrub deck will stop solution flow.
2. Touch the scrub brush switch to raise the scrub
deck, stop the brush motors, raise the squeegee
and stop the vacuum.
3. Park the QUICK© next to a floor drain.
4. Turn off the key switch and set the machine
parking brakes.
5. Unhook the drain hose from retainer. Unscrew Thandle on plug enough to loosen plug and lower
hose in direction of drain. Stand behind end of
hose. Recovered solution will come out with
force. Slowly remove plug from drain hose.
6. Recovery tank should be flushed out with clean
water on a daily basis. Do not use water hotter
than 140°F (60°C) to clean tank. Damage to tank
may occur.
7. Clean around float shut off device and check for
free movement of float.
8. Large debris or compacted dirt may be removed
by clean out cap located on left side at rear.
9. Replace plug and secure drain hose in bracket.
10. If machine is to be stored, leave recovery tank

of the directional pedal, the electronic throttle, the
controller and the traction motor. The controller,
located in the electrical compartment, can only be
serviced by trained personnel.
brushes to follow irregularities and changes in floor
without losing contact with floor.
NOTE: Do not use a pressure washer to clean the
Scrub Head. Use tap pressure only. Care must be
taken so that water is not directed in brush motor air
intakes.
SCRUB BRUSHES
NOTE: All original equipment brushes are equipped
with “Perform Alert©”. This feature will tell the
operator when it is time to replace the scrub
brushes. “Perform Alert©” brushes have pre-trimmed
bright yellow tufts. When the tufts in the scrub brush
wear to a length equal to the yellow tufts, the scrub
brushes should be replaces.
There are five different types of brushes available to
cover applications from cleaning heavily soiled floors
to polishing. A pad driver is also available to take
advantage of the many cleaning pads on the market
and further add to the flexibility of the QUICK©.
Please refer to the following to assist in selecting the
proper brush or pad for the work at hand.
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL PEDAL ADJUSTMENT
(Refer to the “Pedal Group” in the parts manual)
The directional pedal is designed to prevent driver
fatigue. The pedal should require little effort to
operate. The complete assembly can be mounted in
two different positions to suit the individual. If a
different pedal position is preferred follow the
directions below.

UNCOATED FLOORS
Aggressive Grit is nylon fiber impregnated with
silicone carbide grit. It grinds away stain, soil and
removes surface material.
Mild Grit is a less aggressive silicone carbide grit
suitable for cleaning medium soil conditions.
Advantages are faster ground speed than nylon
bristles on light solid applications.
Nylon is a general-purpose scrub brush with stiff
bristles. Polypropylene works well for maintaining
concrete, wood, and tile floors.
FINISHED FLOORS
Nylon Polish is the softest brush. It will gently clean
finished tile or terrazzo floors without removing floor
finish for floor material. Used for washing highly
polished or burnished floors.
Nylon bristles are used in a variety of applicat io ns on
coated or uncoated floors.
White Pads (Polishing) are used for dry polishing to
achieve a high-gloss appearance, or surface washing
on highly polished or burnished floors.
REPLACING OR INSTALLING SCRUB BRUSHES
1. With the scrub deck up, turn “OFF” the machine
and set the parking brake.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine; Stop on level surface, set parking
brake, turn off machine and remove key.
2. Locate release lever on top of brush or pad
driver. Rotate release lever counter-clockwise
and the brush/pad driver will release and drop
down.
3. To reinstall, center the brush diver under the
brush drive hub. Raise until it contacts brush
driver assembly. Turn clockwise until release
lever plate locks into position.
NOTE: Check that release plate is completely closed
and pad/brush is securely attached. Damage to
driver or brush could occur.
4. Repeat the procedure for the opposite side of the
machine.
Red Pads (Buffing) are used for light-duty scrubbing.
When used with a mild detergent they will provide
surface cleaning without removing the finish.
Blue Pads (Scrubbing) are used for heavy-duty
scrubbing and light stripping. The blue pads remove
less finish than brown stripping pads, yet will remove
black marks, stains, and dirt.
Brown Pads (Stripping) are used for easy and
complete removal of old floor waxes/finishes. They
will quickly remove ground in dirt, black heel marks,
and spills. When used with the proper stripper, this
pad leaves the floor clean and ready for finishing.
The scrub brushes should be checked before each
days work for wire, wear, or damage. The scrub
brushes should be replaced if brush bristles are
missing or if yellow Perform Alert© indicate minimum
brush length.
NOTE: For uniform scrubbing, scrub brushes must be

SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY
(Refer to the “Squeegee Group” in the parts manual)
The QUICK© steering geometry and the design of
the squeegee assembly allows the squeegee
assembly to follow the track of the scrub of the scrub
head even in hard turns.
The assembly rides on the floor supported by two
wheels which follows changing levels in the floor.
Down pressure and squeegee flair is constant in
relation to the floor. Spring pressure is applied to
squeegee to maintain good contact with the floor.
(Refer to “Adjusting Squeegee”)
Rollers are mounted on each end of the squeegee
assembly to assist in rolling by obstacles.
The squeegee assembly is easily removed from lift
mechanism for service and transport.
SCRUB DECK SKIRT AND SIDE SQUEEGEE
(Refer to the “Scrub Head Group” in the parts manual)
The design requires the use of a side squeegee to
direct scrub solution to the main squeegee. The
side squeegee is spring loaded allowing constant
contact with the floor. The deflection of the side
squeegee is controlled at front by a guide that
contacts the floor and at rear by an adjustment knob.
Check the blade and guide for damage and wear.
The QUICK© uses a scrub deck skirt to contain the
solution around the scrub brushes. The scrub deck
shirt is self-adjusting by means of its accordion
design. As the brushes wear the skirt assembly will
automatically remain in contact with the floor.
The skirts should be inspected weekly for wear and
damage. Replace the skirts when it becomes
cracked, torn or brittle. The skirt may be removed by
loosening the nut on retaining band at center rear of
scrub head.

side squeegee blades. There are three different
notch patterns and three different colors for varying
floor conditions. Linatex squeegees are for industrial
settings. See squeegee parts list for part numbers.
The front squeegee blade allows solution to pass
through channels in the blade into the squeegee tool
while maintaining vacuum to provide lift. The front
blade has four wear surfaces and can be rotated for
extended life. The red blade has less notches and is
for rougher or tiled surfaces. The green blade has no
notches and is for very rough floors such as knobby
tile or uneven tile. The front blade should not require
regular replacement under normal use.
The rear blade wipes the floor to a near dry condition.
It is important the rear blade be in good condition to
properly do its job. Each squeegee blade has four
wear surfaces for extended service.

MAINTENANCE
ADJUSTING SQUEEGEE
Adjusting the squeegee is a two part process. First,
the squeegee tool must have correct pitch in order
for the squeegee blade to have the same deflection
at each tip as well as the center. The pitch
adjustment on the QUICK© is facili tated by the use
of a spirit level mounted on the squeegee tool. The
second adjustment is the amount of deflection or
down pressure on the squeegee. The ideal
deflection is conveniently marked by colors on the
squeegee tool according to the type of floor and
squeegee blade emplo yed.
TO ADJUST REAR SQUEEGEE PITCH
1. Choose a smooth, level surface, turn on the key
switch release the machine parking brake lower
the squeegee and drive forward at least 2 feet
(60 cm).

the brake and set the parking brake. Do not
allow the machine to roll back.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine; Stop on level surface, set parking
brake, turn off machine and remove key.
3. Determine the differences, if any, in deflection of
the squeegee blade between each end and the
middle. Proper adjustment is obtained when
deflection is equal all the way across tool. This
should correspond to the bubble being in the
middle position of the spirit level.
4. To decrease the deflection of the squeegee
blade at the ends, loosen plastic knob on
squeegee railing arm. To increase the
deflection at the ends of the squeegee
assembly, tighten plastic knob on trailing arm.
5. Again check the deflection of the squeegee
blades. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until the
deflection is equal across the entire rear
squeegee blade.
TO ADJUST REAR SQUEEGEE DEFLECTION
1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Lower the
squeegee and drive forward at least 2 feet.
2. With the squeegee down, stop the machine and
set the parking brake. Do not allow the machine
to roll back.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine; Stop on level surface, set parking
brake, turn off machine and remove key.
3. Observe the amount of squeegee deflection. It
should deflect 3/8 in (9.5 mm) across the entire
width of the squeegee.
4. To adjust the squeegee deflection. Loosen knob
on the squeegee slide bar.
5. Sliding bar to left increases deflection. Sliding
bar to right decreases deflection.
6. Tighten knob on squeegee slide bar.
7. Turn the key switch, release the machine
