The front-blade exchange is completed in a similar fashion to the rear blade by removing the front blade
retainer, attaching a new blade using the guides and re-engaging the squeegee retainer.
When squeegee assembly and blade maintenance is complete, re-attach the squeegee assembly by aligning
the assembly, tightening the easy grip knobs and re-attaching the hose.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Based on research and experience, batteries are the number one nuisance issue and drive a high cost of
ownership if not properly maintained. With the unit you can select from two types of batteries: wet, lead
acid or sealed, maintenance-free AGM.
WET, LEAD ACID BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Wet batteries, by denition, need water to store energy and protect the internal lead plates. According to
the supplier, here are important things to remember for a proper battery watering process:
1. Do not let the plates get exposed to air. This will corrode the plates
2. Do not ll the water level to the cap. This causes the battery to overow acid, consequently losing
capacity and causing a corrosive mess
3. Use distilled or deionized water only
STEP BY STEP BATTERY WATERING PROCEDURE
Battery watering frequency depends upon usage, but the best practice would be to check weekly. Batteries
should be fully charged prior to watering. Refer to the Charging segment of this manual for charging
instructions. Once charging is completed, open the vent caps and look inside the ll wells. Add distilled
water until the electrolyte level is approximately 1/8 in (3.2 mm) below the bottom of the ll well. Clean and
replace the vent caps.
For safety, when cleaning batteries, wear protective gloves and eye protection. Avoid
contact with battery acid.
CAUTION:
For safety, when cleaning batteries, wear protective gloves and eye protection. Avoid
contact with battery acid.
CAUTION:
WARNING:
Fire or explosion hazard. Batteries emit Hydrogen gas. Keep sparks and open ame away.
Keep battery compartment open when charging.
PAD DRIVER AND BRUSH MAINTENANCE
This portion of maintenance is simple and quick, but key to keeping your unit performing at peak levels.
Remove the pad driver or brush to check for wear.
1. For the orbital unit, simply pull o the pad taking care to follow proper safety precautions as indicated on
your chemical product label in regards to coming in contact with solution.
2. To remove the pad driver or brush, twist the right pad driver or brush counter-clockwise and the left one
clockwise.
To ip or replace squeegee blades,
release over-center latch
Slide the squeegee retainer o the
hook on the other side
Remove the blade and either ip
to fresh edge or replace
Loosen the two easy-grip knobs
and detach the recovery hose to
lift away the squeegee assembly
