into the nearest supply and switch on.
Adjusting the handle: After returning the machine to its upright position you will notice two black
thumb slides on the top of the machine handle and directly beneath, two levers. Beneath these
two levers as you stand behind the machine, are two long levers, the left hand lever is the solution
control lever for when you have a tank fitted, and the bottom right hand lever is the handle
adjustment control lever.
This lever should be pulled upwards and the handle lowered to a
comfortable working position, with your back straight and your arms slightly bent at the elbows. In
this position, lock the handle by releasing the adjustment lever. The adjustment position must then
be checked by raising and lowering the handle so that the locking pin engages in the adjustment
gear. With a correct, comfortable working height, the machine base should be parallel with the
floor.
Starting the machine: With a comfortable working position, either the left or right thumb lever
should be pushed towards the centre of the handle and the respective lever on the underside of the
hand grip pulled in. This will immediately start the machine. The instant the machine starts the
handle will try to move from left to right for a split second: this is perfectly normal. With the
machine running and the brush or pad flat on the floor the machine will stay in a central position.
The move the machine from side to side the handle must be raised or lowered very slightly. To
move to the right, raise the handle of the machine. To move to the left slightly lower the handle of
the machine. The speed at which the machine moves either left or right will depend entirely on the
amount the handle is raised or lowered. If you should feel at any time that you are no longer in
control of the machine or that it is becoming difficult to control, release the levers and the machine
will stop.
To master then efficient use of your machine we suggest that you practice these
exercises. When you have mastered the technique you will fin d that you can control the machine
very easily with no effort. If you should experience any difficulties in the operation of the machine,
please contact your supervisor. Depending on the cleaning task, check your floor pad regularly. If
the floor pad becomes clogged or dirty it will lose its effectiveness and the pad must be either
cleaning by under a tap or simply turned over.
Speed selection (MS 17X2)
By operating on the push-button located on the handle's rear side, the device doubles its speed.
Before proceeding with this operation, please make sure to use a pad suitable for a rotation speed
of 308 rpm. Once switched off, the machine will always start from the lower speed, according to
the usual starting procedure. The mode of operation is identical for both speeds. It is always
necessary to be more careful during driving movements at higher speed which should be even
softer because of the higher rotation speed.
End of use
At the conclusion of the cleaning task, it will be necessary to remove all accessories from the
machine. If a tank has been fitted, the solution must be drained from it and then the tank must be
removed by removing the solution control chain and solution feed tube, lifting the black collar,
withdrawing the top tank tongue and lifting the tank from the machine. Always rinse the tank after
use. To remove the drive board, tilt the machine back onto its transportation wheels and lay the
handle on the floor and with the pad still in position twist the drive board clockwise. On new
machines, due to manufacturing tolerances, the drive board or brush might be a little sticky and
require a firm hand to release it from its coupling. Never leave a drive board or brush on the
machine.
Cable cleaning: Return the machine to its upright position and wipe the cable as you are coiling it,
checking for nicks or abrasions that reveal the inner wiring to be reported immediately to your
maintenance department. Prior to storing the machine, always wipe away any accumulation of dirt
and dust. After the machine has been cleaned and stored, take any used pads and run them
