Install the Squeegee Assembly:
Place the squeegee lift arm in the storage (up)
position.
The squeegee assembly mounts to a metal bracket at
the bottom center of the machine, using two (2)
mounting knobs. Loosen the mounting knobs and
slide the squeegee assembly onto the mounting plate.
The squeegee assembly has two (2) small wheels to
prevent "rollover" while in reverse. The roller wheels
must face the operator. Hand tighten the mounting
knobs. Do not use pliers to tighten knobs, as this will
defeat the "break-away" design.
Do not add any weights or other pressure to the
squeegee mechanism. This will not improve the
performance and will shorten the life of the blades.
It is recommended that, with new blades, the rear
wheels be adjusted to their lowest position. Loosen
the two screws on the bracket rotate the bracket
downward as far as it will go, then tighten the screws.
Perform this adjustment on both wheels/brackets.
When the squeegee becomes worn, and the wiping
edge no longer contacts the floor properly, further use
may be possible by adjusting the rear wheels upward
enough to restore proper engagement of the blades
wiping edge with the floor. Be sure to adjust the
wheels back down fully when a new blade is installed.
Install the Side Skirts:
Position the skirts at the front left and right sides of
the machine.
Remove the skirt retaining pins from the mounting
bracket.
Align the side skirt holes with mounting bracket holes,
insert and secure with retaining pins. Close side
skirts around machine and secure with skirt retaining
latch.
Prepare the Sidekick Chemical dispenser (if
equipped)
***CAUTION: Purging the Sidekick lines may
dispense a small amount of the chemical directly
onto the floor. If using wax stripper or harsh
chemicals, be sure to purge the lines in an area
that cannot be damaged by the chemical in use.
Place a container filled with the desired cleaning
chemical into the bottle holder located at the front of
the machine.
o The bottle holder accepts F-style rectangular
containers, and some smaller round containers.
o Empty F-style containers are available from NSS,
order part #9590171.
Ensure all hose fittings are tight, then insert the
suction tube into the chemical bottle, and tighten the
cap.
Turn on the Scrubber then press the "ON" button on
the Sidekick. The ON indicator will illuminate.
Press and hold the PURGE button on the Sidekick
until you see the supply line to the pump filled with the
chemical.
Select the desired dilution ratio as recommended by
the chemical manufacturer.
The Sidekick Chemical dispenser is ready for use.
Operating the Machine
Do not operate the machine with the battery meter
needle in the red zone.
The Wrangler 2730 has the brush motors offset to the
right side of the machine. This offset allows you to
clean the edge of the floor or obstructed areas (walls or
shelving) with the right side of the machine. The 3330
have the brush motors centered but the offset feature is
part of the skirt design.
Normal Cleaning
Sweep and dust mop the floor to remove dirt and
debris before scrubbing. Accumulations of dirt or
debris on the floor will reduce cleaning performance.
You may also need to pre-clean some types of spills
or stains before scrubbing.
Plan your work so that you make long, straight paths
with the fewest amount of turns possible, overlapping
each cleaning path about 2 in. (5 cm.) to prevent
streaking and dirty areas.
Move machine to area to be cleaned.
Place warning signs "Wet Floor" in area.
Turn on master switch.
Turn on vacuum motor switch.
Lower the brush motors and squeegee assembly into
the operating position on the floor. Brush motors will
automatically turn on when lowered and moving in
forward or reverse.
Lift solution valve handle to start liquid flow to floor.
Adjust amount of flow as needed. Close the solution
valve completely 10 ft. (3m.) before turning at the end
of each cleaning path. This reduces the amount of
liquid on the floor when you make the turn.
Reopen the solution valve when you have started
your next cleaning path. Repeat this procedure on
each path.
NOTE: Solution will not flow until brushes turn on.
Watch the level of liquid in the recovery tank and
listen for the float shut-off to change of the sound of
the vacuum motor. When the vacuum airflow stops,
you must turn off the vacuum motor, and empty the
recovery tank.
Take the machine to an approved disposal drain and
turn off all switches.
Raise the rubber flap at the front of the machine and
pull out the flexible rubber drain hose. Raise the end
of the hose above the level of the recovery tank,
loosen and remove the hose drain plug. Carefully
lower and direct the drain hose into the drain.
When the recovery tank is empty, replace and tighten
the drain plug. Place the drain hose back into the
machine and secure the plug end in the clamp. Do
not obstruct the lift mechanism or brush motors.
Special Cleaning
This machine may be used to perform special cleaning
jobs other than "normal" scrubbing.
