FORM NO. 56041523 - PS 2000 - 7
NOTE: Although this model has D.C. motor it is rectified to operate on AC
current. Plug the electric cable in to a regular 115 volt 60 Hertz AC outlet.
Yournew PS 2000 comescompletewithdriving pad assembly withpadholder
attached. This assembly is carefully balanced at factory and should not be
removed except when necessary for repair of machine.
The PS 2000 is equipped with 50' of 3-wire cord. If an extension cable is used
it must be #12 gauge up to 50'.
TO OPERATE MACHINE:
Now lower handle by pressing foot release first. Handle will now float up or
down until it rests on stop at base of machine. You are now ready to press
momentary safety switch at left or right side of handle, but before doing so, it
is advisable to slightly press down on handle to relieve floor pressure only for
amomentjustbeforesqueezingswitchlevers. Operatingheightofhandlemay
beadjustedbylowering or raising the handle adjusting screw. First loosen nut
and tighten when screw is set.
PAD LEVEL: The machine is factory adjusted to be fairly level with floor when
usingpads 7/8-1" thick. The pad load is approximately 6 lbs., with a pad speed
of 2000 R.P.M. DO NOT ADJUST TO ACCOMMODATE ANY OTHER SIZE
PAD.
The light on the control box goes on when the amperage draw gets over 18-
19 amps. This feature warns the operator that there is too much pressure on
the pad and either the pad must be turned, cleaned or the front caster must be
adjusted so that the light goes out. If light goes on during operation, stop
machineand adjust caster. Continual operationwithlighton may cause motor
damage.
NORMAL OPERATION ON FLOOR: Machine is designed to operate in a
straightforward walk method andNOTfrom side to side asisa standard rotary
floor machine. As you will notice, the wheels are in contact with the floor at all
times. The machine can be operated in a forward and backward motion when
space or nature of area require same. NEVER OPERATE OR TURN ON
MACHINE WHEN HANDLE IS IN VERTICAL POSITION.
When machine is idle during working period or storage, put handle in vertical
lock position and tilt machine back until rear wheels are resting on floor.
Disconnect electric cord from wall socket until ready to work again.
USE OF FLOOR TREATMENT CHEMICALS:
The PS 2000 is specifically designed for spray buffing. Spray material must
be sprayed well in front of machine preferably with a hand held and hand
operatedspray bottle. Sprayingtooclose tomachinewith a machinemounted
sprayunitwillbewastefulasitspraystooclosetobrusharea, which by reason
of speed, creates a substantial breeze preventing proper application of
chemical spray. As of this writing experimenting is in progress regarding
possibilities of scrubbing and dri-stripping with Ultra Hi-Speed Machines.
TYPES OF PADS: Best results will be obtained with synthetic pads such as
polyester or nylon. A commonly used pad made by most manufacturers is the
so-called“red”bufferpad andthe “white”superpolishpads. Lightcleaningcan
be done with the light scrub pads commonly available. The Hi-Speed gold
pads are excellent.
Be sure to reverse sides of pad as soon as they become clogged and change
pads frequently. (Used pads should be immediately soaked in a tub of water
for subsequent cleaning out by washing and wringing for re-use.)
BRUSH DRIVE: Maintain “V” Belt tension by loosening motor mounting bolts
slightly and re-positioning motor. Do Not over-stretch belt as this will cause
grinding noise and eventually ruin bearings.
MOTOR:Motorbrushes, whenoperatedundernormalconditions,willhavean
operating life of greater than 2000 hours; however, it is advisable to check the
brushesaftereach1000hoursofoperation. Brushesshouldbechangedwhen
brush warning light goes on.
LUBRICATION: None needed except occasional drop on wheel bearings.
Clean any excess oil off wheel treads.
LIMITED WARRANTY :This machine is warranted to be free of defects in
workmanshipor materials for a period ofone (1) year. Liability under warranty
is limited to replacing or repairing any part or parts which prove defective.
No warranty express or implied other than above is made or authorized by
Euroclean, Inc.
Specifically not covered by this warranty though not limited hereby, is the
misuse, negligence, accident, or unauthorized alteration or repair to which the
machine may be subjected.
WARNING:
1. To avoid electric shock, do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
2. Use the grounding feature provided by 3 wire cable.
3. If 3-2 prong adapters are used, follow adapter instructions carefully.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding Instructions
This appliance should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electric shock. The appliance is equipped with an approved three-conductor
cord and three-prong grounding-type receptacle. The green conductor in the
cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green wire to a live terminal. If
your unit is for use on less than150 volts, it has a plug as show in Sketch A.
An adapter shown in sketch B, is available for connecting plugs as shown in B
to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, etc., must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
Extension Cords
Useonlythree-wire outdoor extension cords that have three-prong grounding-
type and three pole receptacles that accept the appliance’s plug. Replace or
repair damaged cords. If an extension cable is used it must be #12 gauge up
to 50'.
REMEMBER . . .
1: Plug into AC outlet only-15 Amp minimum, but 20 Amps preferable.
2. Do not re-adjust wheels to accommodate any other than 7/8"-1" thick pads.
3: Use machine only in forward and backward direction. Some angular
movement is easily achieved.
4. Do not remove driving pad assembly unless changing belt.
WARNING
When motor brush warning light is lit (on motor canopy), motor brushes must
be replaced within 20 hours of service to prevent damage to motor.
RISKOF EXPLOSION -Floor sanding can result in an explosivemixtureoffine
dust and air. Use floor sanding machine only In well ventilated area.
TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN - STORE
INDOORS.
