MACHINE OPERATION

General Information

The CHAMP 3329 is very maneuverable and is designed to
clean as you drive the machine. Follow these steps to prepare
the machine for daily operation.
Always sweep or dust mop the floor of debris before
scrubbing. You may also need to preclean some types of
spills or stains before scrubbing.
Plan your work so that you make long, straight paths with the
fewest number of turns as possible.
Remove as many obstacles as possible from the area to be
cleaned.
Place "Wet Floor" warning signs in area being cleaned.
Consult your local NSS distributor for more complete
procedures and chemical advice.

Preparing the Machine for use

Prepare the Solution Tank:
Never use water over 140° F (60° C).
Pour all liquids through the mesh filter at the left side of the
solution tank.
Fill with clean water, up to 29 gallons [110 L].
Add the cleaning chemicals to the solution tank.
Prepare the Recovery Tank:
Always use a defoamer to protect the vacuum motor of this
machine. We recommend that you add at least 4 to 6
ounces [120Ml to 175mL] of defoamer chemical.
Vacuum the defoamer into the recovery tank through the vac
hose.
Make sure that the drain plug of the recovery tank hose is
closed tightly.
Install a Pad Driver and Pad:
There is a wide range of pads or brushes available for the
many cleaning applications of this machine. See the
"Accessories" page in the Parts List manual.
Pull pin and open skirt.
Turn the pad driver upside down on the floor and remove the
pad holding cup.
Remove the center cutout of the 17" [43cm] pad and place
the pad on the face of the pad driver.
The pad must be centered on the driver to prevent wobbling
or bouncing.
Install and secure the pad holding cup to the pad driver.
Turn the pad driver over so that the pad faces the floor.
Raise the brush motor into the transport position (center
position of switch).
Align the lugs of the pad driver with notches of the drive
casting.
Turn the pad driver to lock onto the drive casting.
Close the locking latch.
Close the skirt.
Repeat for the other side.
Install a Brush:
Pull pin and open skirt.
Raise the brush motor into the transport position.
Align the lugs of the brush with the notches of the drive
casting.
Turn the brush to lock onto the drive casting.
Close the locking latch.
Close the skirt.
Install the Squeegee Assembly:
Loosen the two mounting knobs and slide the squeegee
assembly onto the mounting plate.
Hand-tighten the mounting knobs. Do not use pliers to
tighten the knobs, as this will defeat the "breakaway" design.
As the machine is used, the squeegee blades wear out, and
need to be replaced due to damage.
Squeegee blades should lie over (like a window squeegee)
whenever the machine is moving forward.
Do not add any weights or other pressure to the squeegee
mechanism; it will not improve the performance or service
life.
The squeegee rises automatically when the machine is in
reverse.
Squeegee springs add pressure to floor. There are 3
adjustments available by moving the end of the spring
closest to the frame from hole to hole. More pressure is
added the further away the hole is from the center point.
When changing the pressure always move both sides, using
the same distance (hole) on each side.
It is recommended that, with new blades, the rear wheels be
adjusted to their lowest position. Loosen the two screws on
the bracket rotate the bracket downward as far as it will go,
then tighten the screws. Perform this adjustment on both
wheels/brackets.
When the squeegee becomes worn, and the wiping edge no
longer contacts the floor properly, further use may be
possible by adjusting the rear wheels upward enough to
restore proper engagement of the blades wiping edge with
the floor. Be sure to adjust the wheels back down fully when
a new blade is installed.
NOTE: Remove squeegee, brushes or pad drivers, and side
skirts if transporting to different places or loading / unloading
into a truck or trailer.
Install the batteries:
Turn off all switches and tilt the battery compartment lid open
to expose battery compartment.
Batteries are heavy - use two people to install.
Refer to wiring diagram inside the battery compartment.
Align batteries in compartment as shown on diagram.
Install battery cables as shown on wiring diagram.
Tighten bolts and hex nuts with a wrench.
Caution: Do not touch two terminals with a wrench.
Loose or improper battery connections will cause battery or
machine damage and possible personal injury.
Charge the batteries before use!
Battery Charging
To recharge the batteries, plug the charger cord, located at
the rear of the machine, into an electrical outlet
(100/115/230 50/60 HZ VAC).
CAUTION: Make sure the battery type LED on the
charger matches the type of battery installed in your
machine! EXCEPTION-CROWN AND TROJAN AGM'S
TO BE CHARGED WITH GEL SETTING.
When the cord is plugged into an outlet the machine will
become disabled.
See Battery Charger section for more details.
Prepare the Sidekick Chemical Metering System (if
equipped)
***CAUTION: Purging the Sidekick lines may dispense a
small amount of the chemical directly onto the floor. If
using wax stripper or harsh chemicals, purge the lines
in an area that cannot be damaged by the chemical in
use.
