Target DT15E, Operating Instructions And Parts List Manual

 22

Scarifier Wheels to break and be thrown against 
the inside of the machine frame. 

4.5 

Wire Brushes [See FIG. 26] 

For Light Scarifying and cleaning.  Flat wires are 
available in many sizes and configurations.  They 
should be rotated end-for-end in the Accessory Disk [P] 
every hour to avoid the wire taking a “set” (wire will 
bend in one direction).  External weight added to 
machine will NOT normally increase production rates, 
but only accelerate the wire brush wear rates

.

4.6 

Multi-Segmented Diamond Disks [Q] 
[See FIG. 24 & FIG. 25] 

a)  Temporary removal of the Front Shield (A) may be 

required to complete this installation. 

b) Attach 

the 

Multi-Segmented Diamond Disks (Q) to 

the Adapter Plate (R) using the four (4) Flat Head 
Screws (S1) and Thin Locknuts (S2) provided in 
the Adapter Plate Kit (Kit Part Number 177861).  
Tighten the Screws (S1) securely.  Repeat this 
procedure for the other Adapter Plate (R). 

c) Attach 

the 

Diamond Disk / Adapter Plate Assembly 

to the machine using the three (3) Capscrews (T1), 
Lockwashers (T2), and Washers (T3) provided in 
the Adapter Plate Kit. Tighten the Capscrews (T1) 
securely.  Repeat this procedure for the other 
assembly. 

d)  Gently lower the front of the machine until the tools 

touch the ground. 

e)  Pivot the axle so that it is in the Operation Position 

[F] [See FIG. 11]. 

f) Lower 

the 

Front Shield [A] from its upper position.  

Loosen the three (3) capscrews and lower the 
shield so that it is only 3/8-1/2” (10-12 mm) from 
the ground. 

Notes: If machine starts to vibrate and shake try 
removing external weight from the machine.  If the 
vibration continues, move the axle into the “E2” position 
[See FIG. 11].  This position is normally a “transport” 
position, but for the diamond disks it removes most of 
the weight from the front of the machine and allows the 
disks to glide over the surface rather than dig into the 
surface. 

4.7 

Tool Holding Pad (HH) Installation 

[See FIG. 19, FIG. 20, FIG. 21, FIG. 22, FIG. 23] 

This machine will allow the use of Scrubbing Pads [JJ] 
that are available from another manufacture.  

a)  Position the triangular area of the Tool Holding 

Pad [HH] [See FIG. 21] so that it mates with 
the triangular area on the Accessory Disk [P]. 

b)  Use the 1/2-20UNF x 1-1/4” Long Capscrew 

[SS1] and Lockwasher [SS2] to attach the Tool 
Holding Pad to the Accessory Disk.  Tighten 

the capscrew securely, using the ¾” (19 mm) 
End of the Wrench [V] [Shown in FIG.8]. 

c)  Repeat this procedure on the other Accessory 

Disk [P]. 

d)  Install the Scrubbing Pads [JJ], two (2) per 

machine. Gently press the tool onto the hook 
and loop fastening system until it is secure. 

e)  Gently lower the front of the machine until the 

tools touch the ground. 

f)  Pivot the axle so that it is in the Operation 

Position [F] [See FIG. 11]. 

g) Lower 

the 

Front Shield [A] from its upper 

position.  Loosen the three (3) capscrews [See 
FIG. 2 & FIG. 3] and lower the shield so that it 
is only 3/8-1/2” (10-12 mm) from the ground, 
then re-tighten the three (3) capscrews. 

 5. Operating Instructions 

All Models: 

Configure the unit with the proper tool for the job. 
See Section 4 of this document for tool installation. 

Start / Stop of Electric Models:

WARNING: Make sure the Voltage Change 
Switch (J) [See FIG. 5], is set to either 115, or 
230 Volt, to match the voltage supply. The 
Voltage Change Switch (J) position is never to 
be changed while the motor is running.   

Make sure that the Voltage Change Lock Bolt 
(TT) is in position.  It will prevent the Voltage 
Change Switch from being accidentally moved 
into the wrong position. 

Local electrical codes may require changing 
the Plug (LL) [See FIG. 1] on the motor to the 
proper NEMA connector to match the voltage 
supply. 

WARNING: Always make sure the unit is 
connected to a properly grounded electrical 
outlet.  Failure to comply with this warning 
could result in serious bodily injury or death! 

1)  Before starting the electric motor (if set for 115 Volt 

Operation) push down on the handles just enough 
to release pressure from the grinding disks.  Start 
the electric motor by turning the Power Switch [H] 
(See FIG. 6) to the ON position. 

WARNING: DO NOT push down on the 
handles enough to lift the grinding disks from 
the ground. 

2)  Once the motor has reached full speed, reduce the 

downward pressure applied to the handles and let 
the weight of the machine rest on the ground. 

3)  Hold the handles firmly and gently guide the 

machine over the work area.
