A switch activated by the forwardreverse foot pedal will automatically raise the squeegee if it is in the lowered position and the machine is in reverse. The switch has a center position to raise the squeegee with the vacuum in to allow vacuuming the water left on the squeegee recovery hose. This prevents water from dripping on the floor with the squeegee "UP.

The solution rate is continuously variable from off to approximately 1-3/4 GPM at low and 3 GPM at high. To stop application of solution push forward on the lever until it stops at the "off" position. The solution warning light will illuminate when the solution tank is low, marking the end of the scrubbing cycle. NOTE For best results, discontinue application of solution 10 feet before stopping or making a 90° or 180° turn. NON-RECYCLING OR STANDARD SCRUBBING SYSTEM 1. Make sure the solution control lever is in the "off" (FORWARD) position. Fill the tank with 70 gallons of water and the correct mixture of American-Lincoln #100 Industrial Cleaner for the job on hand. Make sure the solution control lever is in the "off" position. Fill the detergent tank with American-Lincoln #100 Industrial Cleaner. The system will fill the solution and recovery tank to proper levels and shut off the water flow. "Tip" the float switch on the solution tank to depressurize the water hose before disconnecting WARNING To prevent oversudsing and machine damage, use only AMERICAN-LINCOLN Industrial Cleaner Solution #100. DO NOT put gasoline, combustible or flammable material in the solution, detergent, or recovery tanks. American-Lincoln ATS 46/53 1-23 OPERATION OF CONTROLS AND GAUGES ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT WARNING BANK RECOVERY HIGH LIGHT CLOGGED FILTER LIGHT HOPPER TEMP LIGHT CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT ENGINE TEMP LIGHT SOLUTION LOW LIGHT C1636 C1636 FIGURE 15 WARNING BANK (See Figure 15) The Warning Bank is located on the instrument panel and provides the operator with seven fault/status indicators for engine and sweeper systems. It is very important that the operator be familiar with the meaning of each indicator. ENGINE TEMPERATURE LIGHT The engine temperature light illuminates to indicate an engine cooling system fault. When this occurs the operator must turn off the sweeper immediately and have the cooling system serviced by a qualified service technician. ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT When the oil pressure drops below approximately 5 PSI an automatic protection circuit shuts down the engine and illuminates the light to indicate low engine oil pressure. When this occurs, have the machine serviced by a qualified service technician. CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT The charging system light illuminates to indicate a charging system fault. When this occurs the machines charging system is not working properly, have the machine serviced by a qualified service technician. [. . . ] Do not start the engine unless the operator is in position with the directional control pedal in the neutral position. STORING LP FUEL TANKS Whether the storage is inside or outside, the LP tanks should not be in the vicinity of combustible materials or high temperature sources such as ovens or furnaces. This may cause the heat to raise the pressure of the fuel to a point where the safety relief valves would begin operation. Care should be taken to ensure that the cylinders are stored in such a manner that if the safety relief valves are triggered, the vapor will be relieved rather than any liquid. [. . . ]
