Lifting the Machine
CAUTION: Never work under a machine without safety stands or blocks to support the machine.
− Drain the recovery and solution tanks to prevent sloshing water from unbalancing the
machine.
− Lift only from the subframe of the machine, as shown below.
− Never lift the rear of the machine without rst stabilizing the front.
Lift or Stabilize the Front of the Machine
1. Drain both the recovery and solution tanks
to reduce the weight of the machine.
2. Using the lifting point (A) located on the
right anti-tip hoop, raise the front of the
machine, and place support blocks (C) under
both anti-tip hoops (B).
• Minimum support blocks of 1-inch
(25mm) thick may be used for stabilizing
the front if the purpose is to raise the
rear.
• If taller support blocks are used, make
sure they are wide enough to be stable,
and will not tip over if the machine is
bumped.
Lift the Rear of the Machine
3. Make sure the front of the machine has been
stabilized (above) before lifting the rear of
the machine.
4. Remove the squeegee assembly for easier
access to the rear lifting points.
5. Depending on the type of jack available, use
a low-prole oor jack to lift from the hold-
down brackets (C), or use a bottle-jack to
lift from the underside of the main chassis
platform (D).
6. When the machine is raised, place support
blocks below the hold down brackets (C).
Note: The machine is shown with
the recovery tank removed for
clarity. It is not necessary to
remove it for this procedure.
