3.2   Install / Change the Apron

If you’ve purchased more than one apron, you can easily 

change aprons for different cleaning jobs.

•  Lock the handle in the “up: position and tip the floor 

machine back.

•  If you’re changing the apron, give the brush a quick flip 

counterclockwise to unlock and remove the brush.

•  Remove the 3 knurled thumb nuts that hold the apron to 

the machine chassis.

•  Remove the existing apron.
•  Align the new apron.
•  Re-install the three bolts and tighten.
•  Install a brush that is 2” smaller than the apron.

3.3   Attach the Power Cord

The triple-wire grounded power cord has been factory-

installed into the handle tube. A flexible rubber cable 

connector (11) is used to secure the plug-in connections. 

The floor machine ships with this connector mounted on the 

cord coming out of the handle (10). Stretch the connector 

and slip the male connector (9) (coming out of the motor 

housing) through the connector hole and then into the 

female connector.

Now, plug the end of the 50 foot cord into a grounded power 

outlet. Squeeze the triggers on the handle and check for 

power to the motor.

3.4   Brush or Pad Driver Installation

A brush or pad driver mounts onto your floor machine with 

a “B” style Universal clutch plate.

Unplug the floor machine. Lock the machine handle in 

the “up” position and tip the floor machine back onto the 

handle.

Slide the brush or pad driver clutch plate (11) over the drive 

plug (12).

Quickly spin the brush counter-clockwise to lock the brush 

onto the drive plug.

Now, lower the machine back onto the brush. You’re ready 

to go to work.
