How to Operate the Squeegee and the Vacuum Motor
The squeegee wipes the fl oor while the vacuum motor removes the dirty 
solution from the fl oor.  To operate the squeegee, follow this procedure:

1.  To lower the squeegee and start the vacuum motor, press the squee-

gee up/down switch to the down position (fi gure 24).  NOTE:  The 
vacuum motor will start immediately when the down position of 
the switch is pressed, and the squeegee will lower.

2.  To raise the squeegee, press the squeegee up/down switch to the up 

position (fi gure 24).  The squeegee will then raise and the vacuum 
motor will shut off after short delay  NOTE: The center position of 
the squeegee up/down switch is for use with one touch control.

NOTE:  The squeegee will rise automatically when traversing in reverse 
during scrubbing operations.

The solution is used to loosen and remove dirt from the fl oor.  The amount 
of solution applied can be adjusted to fi ve different levels to accommodate 
many different fl oor conditions.  These different levels are shown on the 
LCD display on the front of the machine.  To adjust the amount of solution 
applied, use the Solution Flow Switch (fi gure 25).  NOTE: There are fi ve 
different settings on the display. See fi gure 26, A.
To increase solution fl ow:
  1.  Press the “ + ” side of the switch (fi gure 25).
  2.  Press and hold the “ + ” switch to achieve the desired level of solution 

fl ow.

To decrease solution fl ow: 

 

  1.  Press the “ - “    side of the switch (fi gure 25).
  2.  Press and hold the “ - “ side of the switch to achieve the desired level 

of solution fl ow. 

How to Operate the Brush Pressure
The brushes are used to supply agitation for the solution, which improves 
the cleaning process.  The amount of brush pressure applied can be ad-
justed to fi ve different levels to accommodate many different fl oor  condi-
tions.  These different levels are shown on the LCD display on the front of 
the machine (fi gure 26, B).  To adjust the amount of brush pressure, use the 
brush up/down switch (fi gure 27).
To increase brush pressure:
  1.  Press the “ + ” side of the switch (fi gure 27).
 2.  Press and hold the “ + ” switch to achieve maximum level of pres-

sure.

To decrease brush pressure: 

 

  1.  Press the “ - “    side of the switch (fi gure 27).
  2.  Press and hold the “ - “ side of the switch to achieve minimum or no 

brush presssure.
