IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be fallowed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING MACHINE

TO

REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY:

Connect machine to a properly grounded outlet only. See grounding instructions.
Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
Do not use outdoors on wet surfaces.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by

or

near children.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturers recommended attachments.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged,

left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to an authorized service center.

Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on a cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or

corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from

heated surfaces.

Do not unplug by pulling on cord.

To

unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and

anything that may reduce air flow.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from opening and moving parts.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Turn

off

all controls before unplugging.

Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be
present.

Rotating fan blades inside the cover. Before opening cover, switch

off

machine. Wait until the fan/brush stops

completely or dust and debris may be ejected.
Dry mop floor before using.

EL

ECTRICA

L:

In the USA this scrubber operates on a standard 15 amp

11

5

volt A.C. power circuit (120V nominal). Special voltage mod

­els are available for international applications. The amp,
hertz, and voltage are listed on the data label found on each
machine. Using voltages above

or

below those indicated on

the data label will cause serious damage to the motors.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This appliance must be grounded.

If

it should malfunction or

break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance

for

electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This ap

­pliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-ground-
ing conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded

in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the equipment

-

grounding con

­ductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with
a qualified

electrician or service person if you are in

doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

Do

not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qual

­ified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120

-

volt circuit, and

has a grounded plug that looks like the plug in

"

Fig.

A

"

below.

A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor in

"

Fig.

C

below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle
as shown in

"

Fig. B" below. The temporary adaptor should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid
ear, lug, or the like extending from the adaptor must be con

-

nected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded

outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be

held

in

place by a metal screw.

NOTE: Check local electrical codes before using an

adaptor. Adaptors are not allowed in Canada.

TIONS

EXTENSION CORDS:

PREPARING FOR OPERA

TION(Cont..)

If

an

extension cord is used, the wire size

must

be at least one

size larger than the power cord on the machine, and the cord

must

be

a type SJTW/SSTW:A.

HOW IT OPERATES

The

TRIDENT COMPACT

is a walk-behind scrubber.

The main scrubbing components include a

solutiodrecovery

tank,

single disc-type brush or pad, a rear squeegee and a vac

-

uum

motor.

Detergent solution and water flow from the solution

tank

to
the scrub brush. The rotating brush scrubs the floor. As the
machine moves forward, the rear squeegee collects the dirty
solution and channels it into

the

vacuum

of

the squeegee pickup

hose. The pickup hose deposits the dirty solution into the re

-

covery tank.
