Tilt the machine back on its wheels until the machine is resting on the floor
exposing the drive mechanism.
The brush or drive board should now be placed on the drive
mechanism and locked in place by turning the brush or board anti clockwise.
If a drive board is used, you must select the appropriate size and grade of pad
and fit to the drive board.
With the brush or drive board fitted, the machine can be returned to the upright
position.
Reverse process to remove brush or drive board.
Attach drive pad (LYNX Models):
Tilt the machine back on its wheels until the machine is resting on the floor
exposing the drive mechanism.
Unscrew the central pad retainer by pushing it inwards and rotating it anti-
clockwise.
Select grade and size of pad: Lynx 15 = 15” pad, Lynx 17 = 17” pad, Lynx =
20” pad.
Screw the central pad retainer clockwise through the pad and into the threaded
location in the drive mechanism. The pad retainer should click when fully
tightened.
2) Operate the machine: (See graphic)
Plug into power supply and check that the green power on light is on. (fig 2)
The handle should be adjusted to a comfortable working height, when the pad
or brush is flat on the floor.
The handle is adjusted by pulling the height adjustment lever (fig 4). This allows
the handle to be adjusted. The handle will lock into position when this lever is
released.
Lynx Models: Once lock is released, the handle is ‘free floating’ enabling the
operator to work at a preferred handle height.
Lift the handle so that the machine base is parallel to the floor.
Operate the machine by sliding one of the safety switches (fig 1) outwards and
lifting the corresponding on/off lever (fig 3). Once in operation, the safety
switch can be released.
To start vacuum option, ensure exhauster power cable is connected to the inlet
socket (fig 6) and that the front cover is fully closed, then press the switch
located at the top of the exhauster unit (fig 7) to the on position.
Apply solution by lifting solution dispenser lever (fig 5 ). (If Applicable)
3) Control machine movement:
When the brush or pad is flat on the floor, the machine will stay in the central
position.
To move to the Right – slightly Raise the handle.
To move to the Left – slightly Lower the handle.
Control machine movement (LYNX Models):
The machine is operated in a forward motion, do not use the machine in a
stationary position.
