ADJUSTING THE BRUSH HEIGHT

The brush height is factory set to accommodate
commercial grade loop pile carpets. When operating
machine on taller carpet piles, the brush height must
be adjusted accordingly. If the brush height is not
properly adjusted, the brush circuit breaker may trip.
1. Park the machine on a level surface. Lower the
brush base, turn the key off and unplug the cord.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine, stop on level surface, turn off machine
and unplug cord from wall outlet.
2. Remove the metal shroud above the brush base
to access the two adjustment knobs (Figure 31).

3. Using a 7/16" wrench, loosen the top and bottom
jam nuts on the two adjustment knobs, 2 nuts per
knob (Figure 32).
FIG. 32
4. Turn the adjustment knobs counter-clockwise to
raise brush and clockwise to lower. Make sure to
turn both knobs EQUALLY in order to keep brush
parallel to the floor. One full turn of the knob will
move the brush 1.5mm (1/16"). Retighten the top
and bottom jam nuts after adjustment is made and
replace the metal shroud.
