OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – FLOOR FINISH RECOAT PREP
To operate the machine with an abrasive, follow this procedure:
1 Move machine to work location. Decide the best approach to abrading the desired area. When operating the machine, work so that you are
moving away from the power supply. This will help to avoid entanglement with the power cord and reduce the need to move the power cord
as frequently.
2 Install the abrasive. Use the same procedure outlined in MACHINE SETUP for installing the pad. To install the abrasive, peel the fi lm off the
back of the abrasive; center the abrasive over the pad and press it against the pad. The adhesive on the abrasive will hold it to the pad.
NOTE: When using screen or pad abrasive, set the screen on the fl oor then move the machine over the screen. Lower the machine until the
pad comes to rest on the screen. Make sure the screen is centered on the pad.
WARNING!
Injury can occur if the machine is connected to a power source while installing the pad or abrasive. Disconnect the machine before installing the
pad or abrasive.
3 Connect the machine to an appropriately fused and grounded circuit.
4 Machine may be operated with the handle in the vertical position or lowered. Release the handle by pulling up on the Handle Release
Compression Lever (4). Bring the handle to a comfortable position, and lock the handle.
5 See Figure 4. Push the Switch Lever Safety Lock Button (2), and apply pressure to the Switch Levers (3). To stop the machine, release the
Switch Levers (3).
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the fl ooring and to reduce swirling, keep the machine in motion while the motor is running.
FM40 LX – SWITCHING BETWEEN WHEELS-UP AND WHEELS-DOWN OPERATION
This model may be operated with the rear wheels up so that the pad deck is fl oating. Or it may be operated with the wheels down and in contact
with the fl oor. In the down position, the machine moves forward and backward much like a lawn mower and is more controllable and less
fatiguing. To switch between wheels up or wheels down position, activate the Lever (8) as shown in Figure 5 while applying pressure on the
handle to lift the wheels.
