INTRODUCTION

This propane fl oor care equipment is manufactured in two basic concepts: the buffer/burnisher and the fl oor stripper. Both of these designs are
truly PORTABLE equipment. Propane buffers are best defi ned as ultra-high speed buffers with the staying power to produce superior high gloss
fl oor surfaces. Upon contact with the fl oor, the buffer should always be kept moving. The speed at which you walk will determine the results that
you will obtain. Slower speeds create more heat and therefore more shine. A moderate pace is recommended for best results and safe operation.
NEVER RUN WITH THE BUFFER!! While a credible shine will still result, the danger of trying to stop the machine in an emergency situation is
unacceptable. When buffi ng, avoid loose tile, electric outlets, door thresholds and any object which may come in contact with the pad other than
the fl oor itself. REMEMBER, the pad is turning very rapidly.
Proper care and maintenance will protect your investment and keep your machine serving you for many years to come. It is essential that these
issues are closely followed:
CAUTION!
Overfi lling the propane tank is the number one cause of problems with a propane machine. This can cause the engine to run poorly or
not at all.
In addition, overfi lling allows liquid propane to enter the fuel control system, possibly ruining the lockoff/regulator assembly. This voids
the warranty on affected parts of the machine. To avoid problems, read and understand fully, the section "Filling and Storing Propane
Tanks."
OVERHEATING is a major cause of engine failure. Keep the cooling air bonnet fi lter clean. Protect your machine; don't allow wax dust/lint to
build up on the cooling fi ns of the engine cylinder(s). A good high pressure spray wash directed at the fi ns when the engine is cold will prevent
this from happening.
LOW OIL AND DIRTY OIL account for most of the other failures. It's recommended to change the oil on a regular schedule, perhaps exceeding
that which is found in the engine manufacturers' manual. Checking the oil daily, before putting the machine to work, is a good habit to get into
and could save you the downtime and expense of replacing the engine due to oil starvation. AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
REPLACED THE OIL SUPPLY BEFORE RESTARTING THE ENGINE.
