GENERAL. This section contains operating Instructions for nine models of the PowerBoss™ sweeperiscrubbers and their available options. Disregard any Information which does not periain, to your model. Read this entire section before attempting to operate the sweeper/scrubber. Then follow all operating Instruction exactly to assure the safety and long life of this product. sweeper/scrubbers combine two separate func- tions in one unit: sweeping and scrubbing. The sweeping system using a main broom, a side broom (optional on some models) and an applica- tion designed air system cleans surfaces thor- ‘ughly and efficiently without creating a dust prob- sem. The side broom creates a wider sweeping Path by pushing dirt and debris into the path of the main broom. The main broom then throws all dirt Side Broom (Optional on Some Models) and debris in its path into the hopper. The scrub- bing system takes water (with soap) from the solution tank and puts it on the floor where the scrub brushes do the cleaning. Then the vacuum system, with the help of the squeegees, picks up the water and puts itinto the recovery tank leaving the floor virtually dry. 3-3. The two functions sweeping and scrubbing 3-2, THEORY_OF OPERATION. PowerBoss™ —— canbe used individually or in combination’suct as: sweeping, scrubbing, double-scrubbing orsweep- ing/scrubbing. This makes the PowerBoss™ the mostefficient, economical, and versatile unit avail- able. 3-4, MAJOR COMPONENTS.

The stop cable knob should be pulled out only after turing off the key switch, to prevent running down the battery. 3-85. Throttle. The throttle adjusts the er speed from idle to the normal operating speed. + The throttle should be in the FUN position ‘during normal operation to insure proper broom speed and dust control (RUN on sweeper/scrubbers and NORMAL on sweepers). 3-86. Timed Filter Shaker. This button is used to activate the filter shakers prior to dumping or as needed for cleaning the dust control filters. When the filter shaker button is pushed in, the timer will automatically shake the fiters for approximately 20 seconds. This button should only be pushed at idle and the hopper is raised approximately 4 inches above the ground, 3-87. Wet Sweep By-Pass. This by-pass ac- complishes the same result as the remote hopper shut-off. It stops the flow of wet air in the hopper from passing through the filters when sweeping wet areas. To achieve this, open the vent located on top of the hopper, see figure 3-4, Wet Sweep By-Pass. Vent Figure 3-4.

The hopper holds all debris picked up when sweeping, To assist in utilizing all available space in the hopper a PowerPacker™ sweeping aid can be mounted inside the lip. The PowerPacker™ is a hydraulically driven auxiliary broom which huris lighter liter and trash to the forward portion of the hopper during the sweeping operation. This reduces the frequency of needed dumping andincreases overallpertormance. Dump NOTE Extensive use of the float position re- duces the Ilfe of brooms. ,, 2.
