GENERAL OPERATION
The area to be scrubbed:
Debris and grit must be swept up
before starting the scubbing operation to avoid vacuum line block-
age and to permit the detergent to perform efficiently.
Prior to startup and operation:
Caution:
A)
Loose objects on
the floor can become dangerous projectiles if struck by the high
speed pad. Remove them before operating machine.
B)
Keep
machine moving to prevent damage to finish or floor.
C)
These machines are designed for level floor operations only.
DO NOT OPERATE ON RAMPS OR INCLINES
unless adequate personnel are available for assistance.
Starting up and operation:
Plug the machine into an outlet
position allowing operation by moving away from the outlet.
NOTE:
The PAS16 is intended for use with 120V/60Hz cycle
grounded circuit. Extension cords are not recommended.
Then:
• Press switches
M7
and
M8.
• Lower the brush by pressing pedal
M9.
• Lower the squeegee by depressing pedal
M3.
• Set the detergent solution supply to minimum by
adjusting knob
M12.
Experience will help with the
selection of the correct solution amount. Moving outward
up and down as illustrated, allows cord to keep
off of dirty floor and from draging dirt into cleaned path.
• Finally, adjust the correct supply of detergent in proportion
to the amount of dirt and amount of speed of
advance by means of lever
M12
; this is a matter of
experience. At this point the machine is ready to carry
out the operations of scrubbing and drying at the same time.
Particularly dirty floors:
Certain floors or areas may require
special attention and, in some cases, cleaning twice. Go over the
floor quickly the first time, with the squeegee raised and the brush
in the working position. In this way, the detergent solution is left
on the floor for a longer time and can dissolve the heavy dirt. The
second time, go over the floor more slowly with both the brush
and the squeegee lowered. Always apply and brush stripping solu-
