Program No: SP-017 Page 3 Program Name: Custodial Cleaning Procedures Origination Date: 04/29/09 Revision Date: 07/17/12 Issued By: Mike Whitford Revision No.: 003

CUSTODIAL CLEANING PROCEDURES 1.0 PURPOSE AND INTRODUCTION

This program establishes a uniform standard for custodial care of Pitt County Schools in order to provide for the long-term conservation of our facilities. All facilities are expected to be maintained in a satisfactory and attractive condition. In addition to routine cleaning procedures, more extensive and thorough cleaning of buildings and equipment should be scheduled for vacation periods, particularly during the summer. Maintaining a clean and orderly school building is not the sole responsibility of the custodian. Teachers and staff members need to be thoughtful and cooperative. Proper custodial work makes teaching and studying easier and healthier. Personal Property – Watering of plants and dusting of personal property, such as trophies and desk pictures, is not the responsibility of custodians.

2.0 SCOPE

Coverage includes all Pitt County Schools custodians. 3.0 TRAINING

3.1 Read and understand this procedure. 3.2 Participate in periodic technical training.

4.0 BASIC CUSTODIAL RESPONSIBILITIES

4.1 Perform all duties in accordance with applicable safety requirements. This primarily affects the operation of equipment and use of cleaning chemicals. If a question arises concerning the safe use of equipment or chemicals, it is the custodian’s responsibility to seek assistance from the Principal or Facility Services prior to use.

4.2 Clean all classrooms, offices, corridors, and outside areas, as scheduled.

Classroom cleaning will include a combination of the following: removing trash, dusting furniture, blinds, and equipment, emptying pencil sharpeners, cleaning marker boards and trays, and sweeping and mopping floors.


4.3 Follow proper procedures for scrubbing, stripping, waxing, and buffing of tile and terrazzo floors.

4.4 Follow proper procedures for vacuuming, spot cleaning, and shampooing

carpeted areas. 4.5 Clean all restrooms daily; including dining area restrooms. Each restroom

should be checked multiple times daily to provide clean restroom facilities. All toilet fixtures, sinks, and floors will be cleaned and disinfected daily.

4.6 Refill dispensers for toilet tissue, paper towels, and soap. 4.7 Prior to leaving the school at night, check all sinks, urinals, and toilets to make

sure water is not left running over night. 4.8 Check school grounds daily to remove trash, rocks, bottles, cans, and other

items that could become a safety or environmental hazard or detract from the general appearance of the school. This includes checking playgrounds for obvious hazards.

4.9 Maintain grounds and grass around the school, mobile units, fence lines,

playground equipment, plumbing valve boxes, and electrical poles. 4.10 Facility Services will mow all schools with tractor driven flail mowers.

Custodians are responsible for mowing everything the tractors cannot reach and for edging around all portions of the building.

4.11 Maintain a clean fence line around the school property. Fences are part of

campus security and should be maintained free of high grass, weeds, trees, and debris. Any needed repairs should be reported to Facility Services.

4.12 Landscaped areas should be maintained in an attractive condition. Any plant

beds should be kept free of weeds. 4.13 Trees and shrubs should be trimmed to prevent damage to buildings and/or

fences. 4.14 Obscenities and graffiti should be removed as soon as possible, preferably

before students arrive. 4.15 Remove all snow and ice from steps and walkways prior to staff and student

arrival.


4.16 Move or transport school furniture, such as chairs, file cabinets, desks, television monitors, etc. as requested by the Principal or Site Administrator.

4.17 Report excessive pest activity to the Principal or Site Administrator for

evaluation. 4.18 Raise and lower the flag daily unless this is completed by students. 4.19 Periodically, check all gutters for accumulation of leaves, pine straw, trash,

rocks, or anything that may cause drainage problems and clean as needed. 4.20 Troubleshoot basic problems, such as clogged toilets, before calling Facility

Services or submitting a work order. 4.21 Clean bleachers after games/events using a broom or leaf blower and remove

trash. At least annually remove trash and clean under bleachers. 4.22 Light Bulb Replacement 4.22.1 Custodians are responsible for routinely changing burned out light bulbs

less than 10 feet from the floor. Note – Old light bulbs need to be placed in the designated recycling

cylinder at each school for recycling. When the light bulb cylinder is full, submit a service request for Facility Services to pickup.

4.22.2 Facility Services is responsible for replacing light bulbs over 10 feet

from the floor. 4.22.3 Occasionally, while attempting to replace burned out bulbs, defective

ballasts are discovered. Ballasts will be changed by Facility Services. However, when a bad ballast is discovered the custodian attempting to replace the bulb should submit a work order noting the light location.

4.22.4 Periodically check nighttime security lighting around the school. Submit

a work order to Facility Services noting the light number or light location.

4.22.5 Exit signs and emergency lights shall be checked monthly. Anything

not functioning properly should be reported to Facility Services for repair.


4.23 Ceiling Tile Replacement 4.23.1 It is the responsibility of the custodial staff to replace broken, water

stained, or fallen ceiling tiles. 4.23.2 Custodians are responsible for replacing ceiling tiles less than 10 feet

from the floor. 4.23.3 Facility Services is responsible for replacing ceiling tiles over 10 feet

from the floor. 4.23.4 Facility Services is also responsible for replacing ceiling tiles that must

be cut for fit, regardless of ceiling height. 4.24 Maintain and clean entrance mats daily. Entrance mats perform four primary

functions:

Stop dirt and water at the door Store soil and water for removal Minimize the tracking of soil and water into a facility Provide a safe walking surface that is slip-resistant

The majority of all soil enters a building on the feet of building occupants. Since entrance mats stop and contain soil and water, it is obvious that removing soil from a mat can be less expensive than removing it from a building since the soil is concentrated in one area.

5.0 CUSTODIAL SUPPLIES

5.1 All supplies and equipment are to be stored in a Custodial Room or supply room in a neat and orderly fashion.

5.2 Custodial closets/supply rooms must remain closed and locked at all times. 5.3 Custodial supplies from Facility Services are for custodial use only. Custodians

may not bring to the school, use, or request any cleaning chemicals other than those supplied by Facility Services. Cleaning chemicals are not to be placed or left in the classroom.

5.4 If classrooms are equipped with a towel dispenser, the custodial staff is

responsible for stocking the dispenser on a daily basis. Cleaning chemicals are not to be placed in the classroom.


5.5 Anticipate usage of supplies and reorder as needed. 5.6 Cardboard boxes should be removed as soon as possible and products stored

on shelving in open view. Cardboard is an excellent home for roaches. 5.7 Chemical Disposal

5.7.1 Diluted cleaning chemicals may be poured down drains within the school.

5.7.2 Do not pour any cleaning chemicals in a storm water drain or on the

ground.


6.0 CUSTODIAL CARTS

6.1 Before starting your work schedule, make sure that all supplies you will need are on your cart. Try to eliminate any unnecessary trips back for supplies. You need the proper equipment and supplies in the correct quantity and at the proper place and time in order to do your job effectively.

6.2 If you are called away from your work area, the custodial cart should be locked

in a Custodial Room or empty classroom. 6.3 The following items should be stocked on custodial carts prior to beginning the

work shift: Cleaning Chemicals All Purpose Cleaner Cleanser Powder with Bleach Disinfectant – Pronto Furniture Polish Glass Cleaner Gum Remover Heavy Duty Degreaser Neutral Floor Cleaner Pine Scent Disinfectant Non-latex Gloves Putty Knife Large Trash Bags Small Trash Bags

Classroom Floors Dust Mop Stick Broom Dust Pan Vacuum Cleaner

Restroom Items Bowl Brush Jumbo Tissue Paper (2) Jumbo Hand Towels (2) Pumice Stick Urinal Screens (6)


7.0 MAINTAINING CUSTODIAL EQUIPMENT

Custodial equipment can be expensive and for that reason it is not something that can or will be replaced on a routine basis. The most common reason for equipment failure is user abuse and lack of care and maintenance. If your equipment is being used properly and maintained, you can expect to use your equipment for years without problems. Listed below are some guidelines on caring for and maintaining your equipment. 7.1 Return damaged or faulty custodial equipment to Facility Services for repair.

Empty any fluids and clean the equipment prior to bringing to Facility Services. 7.2 Custodial equipment will be repaired and continued to use until it is

considered uneconomical to repair. 7.3 Mop and Mop Bucket

7.3.1 All custodians should have at least three mops – 1 for cleaning classrooms and corridors, 1 for cleaning restrooms, and 1 for waxing floors.

7.3.2 Note: Wet mops should be rinsed out well each time they are used with

clean water, wrung as dry as possible, and then after shaking the strands apart, hung with the head up where they will dry. If stored very long in a damp place, wet mops will mildew and develop an odor that will render them unfit for use.

7.3.3 Rinse out after each use (Especially after waxing). 7.3.4 If a mop is used to pick up blood or potential bloodborne pathogens, it

should be disposed of immediately after the cleanup. 7.3.5 Mop heads should not be in service for more than a week without

laundering.

CLASSROOM CLEANING PROCEDURES 8.1 Classroom Cleaning Procedures

A proper daily cleaning schedule should be followed to keep classrooms clean at all times. You should make two loops around a classroom. The first loop will be to empty trash cans, pencil sharpeners, and clean all horizontal surfaces, tables, desks, sills, etc. The second loop will be to vacuum the carpet and/or dust mop the floor. Daily 1. Empty pencil sharpeners and clean surrounding wall and floor area. 2. Empty trashcans.

Note – Do not use hands to pack down waste. Sharp objects or glass could cause injury.

3. If there was trash in the trashcan replace the liner. 4. Spot clean all entry windows and doors. 5. Clean and sanitize counters, sinks, and mirrors. 6. Resupply paper and soap dispensers. 7. If there are restrooms inside the classroom, clean per the restroom cleaning

procedures (located in section 8.4 RESTROOM CLEANING AND SANITATION).

8. Vacuum interior carpeted mats. 9. Remove any gum from the floors with the gum remover. 10. Vacuum carpet.

Note – Pick up all debris too large for the vacuum first.


11. Spot clean carpet stains.

Note – Spray with a carpet shampoo solution. Let the solution soak into the spot for 2 – 5 minutes, then attempt to remove it by rubbing it with a damp cloth. Always rub from the outside of the spot toward the center to prevent spreading. If the spot remains, repeat the procedure.

12. Dust mop tile and terrazzo floors.

Note – Be sure to keep the same side of the dust mop in the forward position at all times with the mop strands out in front to trap the dust. Try not to lift the mop unless it is absolutely necessary to remove collected dust. Note – Sweep trash outside the classroom door for pickup.

RESTROOM CLEANING PROCEDURES 8.4 Restroom Cleaning and Sanitation

The single, most important area to be cleaned is the restroom. A common misconception about restroom cleaning is if it smells good, it must be clean and healthy. There are no shortcuts in cleaning a rest room. Plenty of water, disinfectant solution, and proper daily cleaning are the only solutions for clean and odor-free restrooms. Odors are caused by germs and bacteria that are breeding. Areas around pipes, underneath sinks, the outside of a toilet bowl or urinal, and the floor drain are favorite breeding places for germs and bacteria. If you kill the bacteria, you kill the odors.



2. If there was trash in the trashcan replace the liner. 3. Resupply toilet paper, hand towel, and soap dispensers. 4. Remove any toilet tissue, spit balls, and cobwebs from the ceiling with a broom. 5. Remove any graffiti with the Graffiti Remover. 6. Using a cloth and Glass Cleaner, wash the mirrors. 7. Wipe the towel and soap dispensers and the wall around the sink. 8. Dip the sponge or cloth into the disinfectant; scrub the sink bowl, scrub around

the faucets, and scrub underneath the sink. Be sure to clean the pipes and the wall around them.

9. Flush the toilets and urinals. Add 2 ounces of Pine Scent Disinfectant to the

bowl water. Swab the bowl with a bowl brush. Let stand for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, flush the toilets and urinals.

Note – The disinfectant should sit at least 10 minutes to be effective against germs.


10. Clean the pipes, the wall around the toilet/urinal, and outside of the toilet/urinal

bowl and base. 11. Clean the top and bottom of the seat. The seat should be left up when finished

to allow the disinfectant to run off. 12. Use a cloth or scrub pad to clean the wall behind the toilet and around the base

of the toilet. 13. Dry and polish the chrome. 14. Dry the toilet seat if it is to be used soon. 15. Remove any gum from the floors with the gum remover. 16. Sweep floors. 17. Wet mop floor with Pine Scent Disinfectant. Dip the mop in disinfectant solution

(Pine Scent Disinfectant); allow excess to run back into bucket; do not wring out; apply solution to floor. Start at the far end of the room and work toward the door. As the area around the toilet fixtures is reached, wash thoroughly. Some neglected areas around the toilets may require the use of a brush for heavy scrubbing. Starting at the farthest corner from the door, lay the solution on the floor. Be careful not to splash the baseboards. Go back to the bucket as necessary for more solution. When the entire floor is covered, wring out the mop and pick up the excess solution.

18. Pour the remainder of the disinfectant down the floor drain, a favorite breeding

place for bacteria and a source of odors.

Note – If liquid is not occasionally poured down the floor drain, the water in the drain trap will evaporate allowing sewer gas to come back up the drain.

Weekly 1. Dust all horizontal surfaces to head height. 2. Remove stains from stall partitions, walls, doors, door frames, and light

switches using the Disinfectant (Pronto) solution. 3. Damp clean baseboards using the Disinfectant (Pronto) solution.


4. Every Friday, spray the toilets, urinals, sinks, and floors with a water hose. This

should be done after everything has been cleaned and disinfected. Use a squeegee to pull the water to the floor drain.

Monthly 1. Dust areas above head height including ceiling, moldings, ducts, vents, air

registers, exhaust fans, etc. 2. Remove bugs, dust, and cobwebs from ceiling areas and light covers. Annually (Annual services are to be performed during the summer or Holidays) Pressure wash the restroom walls and floors. Use a squeegee to pull the water to the floor drain. Miscellaneous A. Restrooms should be checked between every classroom change during the

day. This includes flushing toilets and urinals, filling dispensers for toilet paper, hand towels, and soap, and sweeping the floor.

B. Prior to leaving at the end of the day, custodians should thoroughly clean the

rest room in preparation for the next school day. C. Sinks, toilets, urinals, and associated chrome that are cleaned each day as

instructed above should not need cleaning with abrasive cleaners. However, when needed, Cleanser Powder with Bleach can be used on chrome. A pumice stick can be used on sinks, toilets, and urinals. Be very careful as both can cause damage and leave scratches.

D. Cold water should always be used with a disinfectant, as hot water weakens its

ability to kill germs. Be sure to wear non-latex gloves. E. Do not damp mop a restroom floor. You need liberal solution on the floor long

enough to kill the germs and bacteria and leave the restroom odor-free. F. Do not wax restroom floors. G. Glass and chrome are the only items you dry. Allow the rest to air dry. This

allows time for the disinfectant to kill the germs and bacteria.

important to spot mop floors in order to keep them in good condition and to keep them looking good. Floors that are not spot mopped will not hold up, as the spots get tracked onto the rest of the floor and the surface soil cuts the finish. This can quickly result in a very dull and unsightly floor.

2. Periodically spray buff tile flooring. Floors must be maintained in good condition

to be spray buffed. Semi-Annually (Semi-annual services are to be performed during the summer and Holidays) or as needed Semi-annually, or more often if needed, lightly scrub and refinish tile flooring as described in the floor scrubbing procedures (located in section 9.4 FLOOR SCRUBBING).

have been winterized.


DUST MOPPING 9.1 Dust Mopping

Dust mopping is recommended for the removal of dust, light soil, and litter from smooth finished floors as wood, linoleum, terrazzo, and vinyl tile. It should be done after the dusting of furniture and equipment so that the soil deposited on the floor will be removed. The equipment and supplies that are needed for dust mopping are:

Dust Mop & Dust Pan Broom or Duster Putty Knife Clean Cloths 1. A pattern is recommended for dust mopping procedures. In the case of office

areas with a number of desks, it is important to dust mop not only the aisles, but also the areas between the desks and the kneehole area under them. Chairs and other wheeled furniture should be rolled aside, and then returned to their original positions after dust mopping the area they cover. Special care should be taken to mop closely around the legs of furniture where dust clings and along the baseboard and behind open doors. A broom may be needed for getting dust out of corners.

2. As much as possible, while dust mopping is in progress, avoid lifting the mop

head from the floor surface. When it becomes necessary to shake the mop, keep it as close to the floor as possible to avoid unnecessary scattering of dust and litter into the air.

3. Try to keep dust piles to the side, out of the traffic lane, to avoid scattering.

When emptying dustpans, make sure this is done well down in the cart to minimize the possibility of dust circulating back into the air.

4. Exterior rubber mats, interior carpeted mats, and dust mopping are your main

line of defense against soil that will destroy your floor finish. Interior carpeted mats should be vacuumed each day.


FLOOR MOPPING 9.2 Floor Mopping

The equipment and supplies that are needed for wet mopping are:

Wet Mop & Mop Bucket Neutral Floor Cleaner Pine Scent Disinfectant (Only for Restroom Floors) Broom or Duster Putty Knife Wet Floor Signs Clean Cloths NOTE: The Neutral Floor Cleaner should be used on all floors except restrooms. NOTE: The Pine Scent Disinfectant should be on restrooms floors. In the following instructions substitute the neutral floor cleaner with pine scent disinfectant when mopping restrooms floors. Tip: A tennis ball attached to a broom handle can be used to remove black streaks from floors. 1. Remove any items stuck to the floor with the putty knife. 2. Place wet floor signs in the area you plan to mop. 3. Fill the mop bucket to the correct level with water and add 1 – 2 ounces of

Neutral Floor Cleaner for each 1 gallon of water.

4. After thoroughly dipping the mop head in the Neutral Floor Cleaner, allow some of the excess liquid to pour back into the bucket. You do not want to flood the floor and harm the tile.

5. Lay the mop head on the floor, about 8 inches from the baseboard, and lay the

neutral floor cleaner down parallel to the wall. 6. Make a figure “U” with the mop and, standing upright, mop a figure-eight stroke

between the two lines. For best results, the mop should be turned over two to three times for every mop full of solution. As you mop, shift the weight of your


body from foot to foot in the direction of the stroke. Use your whole body to move the mop, not just your arm muscles.

7. Rinse the mop often so that dirt is not redistributed over the floor. Change the

mop water as needed. 8. If you splash the baseboard or wall by accident, wipe it off immediately. Always

carry a rag for this purpose. The reason the first border stroke is made away from the baseboard is to prevent splashing.

9. Mop over the entire area with a wrung out mop.


FLOOR SCRUBBING 9.3 Floor Scrubbing

When a floor is not dirty enough to need complete stripping, but it is soiled enough to need stronger action then mopping, it should be scrubbed. The equipment and supplies that are needed for scrubbing are:

Floor Scrubber (Red Scrub Pads) Buffing Machine (Blue Scrub Pads) Neutral Floor Cleaner Wet/Dry Vacuum & Two Buckets Dust Mop & Dust Pan Broom or Duster Putty Knife Wet Floor Signs Clean Cloths Mop and Mop Bucket

CAUTION – ASBESTOS FLOOR TILE Prior to scrubbing tile floors, determine whether the tile contains asbestos. This information can be found below with more detailed information in the Asbestos Inventory located in the appendix of the Custodial Safety Program or in the facility’s Asbestos Management Plan. If the tile contains asbestos, the following precautions must be taken:

Use a less aggressive pad. Keep floor wet during the entire scrubbing process. Do not use a high-speed buffer or burnisher.

Exposed asbestos floor tile is found in various locations at the following schools: A.G. Cox Middle Farmville Middle Ayden Grifton High G.R. Whitfield Belvoir Elementary Grifton Bethel J.H. Rose High C.M. Eppes Middle North Pitt High Chicod Pactolus D.H. Conley High Sam D. Bundy E.B. Aycock Middle South Greenville Elementary Elmhurst Elementary W.H. Robinson Elementary Falkland Elementary Wahl Coates Elementary Farmville Central High Wellcome Middle


Automatic Floor Scrubber 1. Diagram furniture placement and remove furniture from room. 2. Go over the entire floor with a dust mop in order to remove all surface dirt and

debris. Use the broom or duster and the dustpan to take care of any loose litter that you may find.

3. Place wet floor signs in the area you plan to scrub. 4. Fill the detergent tank with 4 gallons of water and 8 ounces of neutral floor

cleaner. 5. Lower the squeegee using the lever. 6. Press the ON button. 7. Press the brush button to activate suction and water delivery. This will also

activate the detergent. 8. Begin working. 9. The floor should now be clean and dry and ready for a coat of floor finish. If

possible, wait until the next day to refinish floor. Buffing Machine with Scrub Pad 1. Diagram furniture placement and remove furniture from room. 2. Go over the entire floor with a dust mop in order to remove all surface dirt and

debris. Use the broom or duster and the dustpan to take care of any loose litter that you may find.

3. Place wet floor signs in the area you plan to scrub. 4. Mix a solution of Neutral Floor Cleaner with water. Add 1-2 ounces of Neutral

Floor Cleaner to each 1 gallon of water. 5. One person should start laying the Neutral Floor Cleaner in a corner away from

the door. Be careful not to splash furniture or baseboards. If this occurs, wipe off immediately with a damp cloth.


6. After the Neutral Floor Cleaner has been down a couple of minutes, the machine operator begins by scrubbing in a left to right motion while moving backwards.

7. After the scrubber moves on, the second person moves over the same area

and picks up the soiled solution with the wet/dry vacuum. This person should carry an abrasive pad that can be used to remove any marks the scrubber missed. The dirty solution must be picked up quickly before it dries and has to be scrubbed again. If the water extraction machine leaves any residue behind, it should be mopped up as soon as possible.

8. The next step is rinsing. This is a critical step, because if it is not done properly

the floor finish may not stick to the floor.

Fill the rinse bucket with warm water, lightly flood the area, and pick up the water with the wet/dry vacuum. When floors are flooded, be sure to remove the water as soon as possible to prevent floor damage.

Wring a clean mop head to a damp consistency before putting it on the floor. Once again, rinse the same way for all mopping except change the water

more often.

9. The floor should now be clean and dry and ready for a coat of floor finish. If possible, wait until the next day to refinish floor.

Note – If you have a very small area to refinish, you may want to pour the finish directly on the mop and apply. Note – For large areas, you will need a clean mop bucket and wringer. Whatever the case, apply a thin coat of finish. Note – In a scrubbing operation, you do not remove all of the original floor finish, so you only need to replace a thin coat of finish. A second coat in traffic lanes should be applied if time permits.


FLOOR STRIPPING 9.4 Floor Stripping

The purpose of stripping a floor is simple: to remove all the sealer, wax, and dirt and lay a new finish on to protect the surface. The procedure for stripping a floor is basically the same as for scrubbing. The same equipment and supplies are needed as in the scrubbing operation, with two exceptions: Use a stripping solution and use the black stripping pads. The equipment and supplies that are needed for stripping are:

Buffing Machine Black Stripper Pads Floor Stripper Defoamer Dust Mop & Dust Pan Broom or Duster Wet/Dry Vacuum & Two buckets Putty Knife Clean Cloths Mop and Mop Bucket Wet Floor Signs Pullover Stripping Shoes There are six basic steps in a professional stripping and finishing job: (1) Dust mopping (2) Laying the stripping solution and letting it soak (3) Machine scrubbing (4) Picking up the slurry (5) Rinsing the floor three times; one light flood, two wet mop (6) Laying the floor wax


CAUTION – ASBESTOS FLOOR TILE Prior to stripping tile floors, determine whether the tile contains asbestos. This information can be found below with more detailed information in the Asbestos Inventory located in the appendix of the Custodial Safety Program or in the facility’s Asbestos Management Plan. If the tile contains asbestos, the following precautions must be taken:

Strip infrequently. Use a less aggressive pad. Keep floor wet during the entire stripping process. Do not use a high-speed buffer or burnisher.

Exposed asbestos floor tile is found in various locations at the following schools: A.G. Cox Middle Farmville Middle Ayden Grifton High G.R. Whitfield Belvoir Elementary Grifton Bethel J.H. Rose High C.M. Eppes Middle North Pitt High Chicod Pactolus D.H. Conley High Sam D. Bundy E.B. Aycock Middle South Greenville Elementary Elmhurst Elementary W.H. Robinson Elementary Falkland Elementary Wahl Coates Elementary Farmville Central High Wellcome Middle

1. Diagram furniture placement and remove furniture from room. 2. Dust mop the floor thoroughly. Be sure to sweep all corners and edges.

3. Remove any gum from the floors with the gum remover. 4. Use towels or rags to protect the edges of carpet and under the doors to

prevent the stripping solution from running onto floors that connect to the one you are stripping.

5. Place wet floor signs in the area you plan to strip. 6. Put on pullover stripping shoes.


7. Mix the stripper solution in a 1 – 4 ratio (1 gallon of stripper to 4 gallons of

water) in one of the mop buckets.

Hot water (if available) should be used as it will soften the old finish and make it easier to remove.

8. Lay a full coat of floor stripper solution down. 9. After 10 minutes use the mop to agitate the stripper solution on the floors. 10. After 5 minutes agitate the floor using a black stripper pad on the buffing

machine. 11. Most floors are slightly uneven, with small hills and valleys throughout. The

buffing machine needs to be moved back and forth over the same area at different angles.

12. A floor scrapper or putty knife should be used to clean and remove buildup on

the floor along the baseboards, edges, and corners.

13. Pick up the dirty stripper solution with the wet/dry vacuum and mop. Pour approximately 1-2 capfuls of Defoamer in the wet/dry vacuum tank prior to picking up the stripper solutions.

Note – Do not allow the stripper to dry on the floor. Important – Do not use an automatic scrubber machine to remove stripping solution.

14. Rinse the floor at least twice with clean mops and clean water. When floors are

flooded, be sure to remove the water as soon as possible to prevent floor damage.

Note – Because you are using a stripping solution, the rinsing operation is the most important step. If any stripper stays on the floor, the finish will not stick, and the entire job will have to be redone.

Tip – Fans may be used to help dry the floors.

15. When the rinsing is complete, take a damp cloth or sponge and wipe any splashes off walls, woodwork, and baseboards.


16. When the floor is completely dry, run your hand across it to see if any residue is left. If there is, the floor will have to be rinsed again. This residue is stripper and the finish that has not been removed by a previous stripping.

If no residue appears on your hand and there is no visible evidence of unstripped finish or sealer, the floor is now ready for a new finish.

A. New Vinyl Floors

Newly laid vinyl floors require special care until they are “cured” and ready to finish. If they are not properly taken care of, the tile glue may begin to bleed up around the edges of the tile, and you will have a never-ending problem with your finish and the appearance of your floors. For the first 2 weeks: The floor may be dust mopped and damp mopped only. Do not flood the floor with water; do not use floor stripper, any soap, or apply floor wax during the first 2 weeks. After 2 weeks: Scrub the floor using the auto floor scrubber or a buffing machine with a scrubbing pad. Use the Neutral Floor Cleaner. Note – The floor must be scrubbed or the wax will not bond. The tile comes from the manufacturer with a protective coating that must be removed before applying the finish.

B. Asbestos Floor Tile Care

All remaining asbestos floor tile in Pitt County Schools is progressively being removed as needed and as funding is available. Stripping Asbestos Floor Tile: The floor must be kept wet at all times while stripping.

A high-speed buffing machine will not be used in stripping a floor.


FLOOR WAXING 9.5 Floor Waxing

The equipment and supplies that are needed for waxing are:

Buffing Machine White Buffing Pads Floor Sealer Floor Wax Mop and Mop Bucket Dust Mop & Dust Pan Clean Cloths Wet Floor Signs

CAUTION – ASBESTOS FLOOR TILE Prior to buffing tile floors, determine whether the tile contains asbestos. This information can be found below with more detailed information in the Asbestos Inventory located in the appendix of the Custodial Safety Program or in the facility’s Asbestos Management Plan. If the tile contains asbestos, the following precautions must be taken:

Do not use a high-speed buffer or burnisher. Exposed asbestos floor tile is found in various locations at the following schools: A.G. Cox Middle Farmville Middle Ayden Grifton High G.R. Whitfield Belvoir Elementary Grifton Bethel J.H. Rose High C.M. Eppes Middle North Pitt High Chicod Pactolus D.H. Conley High Sam D. Bundy E.B. Aycock Middle South Greenville Elementary Elmhurst Elementary W.H. Robinson Elementary Falkland Elementary Wahl Coates Elementary Farmville Central High Wellcome Middle


1. Apply a light thin coat of floor sealer evenly across the floor. Stay at least 1 foot away from all walls.

2. After the floor sealer has dried, you are ready to begin applying light coats of

floor wax. 3. Four coats of wax should be applied. Note – Use only a clean mop head. 4. Dip the mop into the floor wax and gently press any excess back into the

bucket. Always avoid agitating the wax because you may create bubbles that will appear on the floor once the finish is applied. This promotes quicker drying and prevents puddling and streaking.

5. Be careful to avoid getting wax on the baseboards. If you miss a spot, do not

try to go back and cover it. It will be covered with the next coat. In addition, be careful to avoid floor receptacles.

6. Most wax will dry in 15 – 30 minutes. Always be sure the last coat is thoroughly

dry before the next application is made. Note – The temperature, humidity, and ventilation affect the speed in which the finish will dry. Try to schedule your waxing jobs on clear, low humidity days. Note – The air conditioner is not turned off during the summer. For energy management purposes it is set back to 82°. 7. The second and remaining coats of wax should be laid down 6 – 8 inches from

the baseboards, corners, and obstacles. These are areas that receive little or no traffic, so any additional coats will only cause a buildup.

Alternate the direction the wax is applied between each coat. This will eliminate the “streaked” look and will ensure that the entire floor will be covered. Remember, each time you buff you will be taking a very thin layer of finish off. The scratches and scuffs are buffed out this way.

8. After at least 48 hours, buff the floor to a shine with a white buffing pad. 9. Replace the furniture only after the final coat of finish is completely dry. 10. Do not return leftover wax to the original container.


11. Always keep a top on the container when storing. Floor wax will spoil if contaminated.

Asbestos Floor Tile Care All remaining asbestos floor tile in Pitt County Schools is progressively being removed as needed and as funding is available.

Waxing Asbestos Floor Tile:

Asbestos floor tile that has no finish on it will not be dry buffed or burnished. Make sure the floor is clean and damp mopped prior to buffing. A high-speed buffing machine or burnisher will not be used in waxing or buffing. Asbestos floor tile can be buffed with a standard speed machine as long as a

minimum of four coats of wax is kept on the floor.


BURNISHING 9.6 Burnishing

The purpose of burnishing is to harden the floor finish. A floor finish hardened by burnishing will better protect the floor surface and will reflect an enhanced appearance. The equipment and supplies that are needed for waxing are:

Buffing Machine White Buffing Pads Dust Mop & Dust Pan Putty Knife

CAUTION – ASBESTOS FLOOR TILE Prior to burnishing tile floors, determine whether the tile contains asbestos. This information can be found in the facility’s Asbestos Management Plan or the Asbestos Inventory found in the appendix of the Custodial Safety program. If the tile contains asbestos, the following precautions must be taken:

Do not use a high-speed buffer or burnisher.

Exposed asbestos floor tile is found in various locations at the following schools:

A.G. Cox Middle Farmville Middle Ayden Grifton High G.R. Whitfield Belvoir Elementary Grifton Bethel J.H. Rose High C.M. Eppes Middle North Pitt High Chicod Pactolus D.H. Conley High Sam D. Bundy E.B. Aycock Middle South Greenville Elementary Elmhurst Elementary W.H. Robinson Elementary Falkland Elementary Wahl Coates Elementary Farmville Central High Wellcome Middle


Note – Never burnish an unfinished floor or a floor where the finish has been worn to the point that the tile is exposed. Note – Burnishing finish that has not hardened may cause swirls in the finish and/or remove finish increasing the need for additional floor care. 1. Before burnishing the floor must be prepared. There are three options to

prepare the floor: Option 1 – Dust mop the floor Option 2 – Scrub and refinish the floor Option 3 – Strip and refinish the floor

2. Use the putty knife to remove gum and other deposits from the floor. 3. Pick up entrance mats and take them outside. Shake them vigorously or

vacuum them to remove the grit and soil. 4. Burnish at a slow to moderate walking pace in a straight line, overlapping the

previous pass as you proceed.

Note – Continuous burnishing in one spot will remove the finish and may damage the finish or tile. Note – Do not burnish areas of the floor that contain chipped or loose floor tile.

5. When burnishing is complete, go over the entire floor with a dust mop again.

Pick up any dust or debris you have created.


SPRAY BUFFING 9.7 Spray Buffing

The best way to keep an attractive floor is to regularly spray buff. The equipment and supplies that are needed for waxing are:

Buffing Machine White Buffing Pads Spray Buff Dust Mop & Dust Pan Clean Cloths 1. Before spray buffing, the floor must first be dust mopped and damp mopped to

remove all the surface soil. 2. Use the putty knife to remove gum and other deposits from the floor. 3. Pick up entrance mats and take them outside. Shake them vigorously or

vacuum them to remove the grit and soil. 4. Follow the procedures given in the section on damp mopping. 5. Use a white buffing pad for spray buffing. Spray a small amount of Spray Buff

on the floor to one side of the machine and begin to buff. Continue to buff until a shine is obtained.

6. Continue this procedure, moving the machine from side to side and overlapping

each pass of the machine with the previous pass. Do not spray the Spray Buff close to the walls. This will help to prevent buildup around the edges.

7. When a heel mark or other hard to remove mark is encountered, spray the area

and rub lightly with the centerpiece from a buffing pad. Use your foot to apply slight pressure. Do not rub too hard and do not “heel” the machine on such spots, as this will result in removing the finish, leaving a dull spot, which will soil rapidly and detract from the floor’s overall appearance.

8. When one side of the pad becomes too loaded with soil and finish to do a good

job, turn it over and use the other side. It is possible to go a long way on one pad.


9. When spray buffing is complete, go over the entire floor with a dust mop again. Pick up any dust or debris you have created.

10. One very important thing to remember is to always dust mop and damp mop

before spray buffing. If you do not, dirt is ground into the floor, causing browning and powdering of the finish.


CARPET VACUUMING 9.8 Carpet Vacuuming

It is not foot traffic that wears a carpet out, but the dirt and grit that works its way down into the pile of the carpet. This grit works like sandpaper and cuts the carpet strands at the base of the carpet pile. Daily vacuuming will remove most of the dirt while it is on or near the surface of the carpet. A. Vacuum cleaners must be kept in good repair in order to do a proper job.

Check the vacuum cleaner after each use; empty the bag, check the belt, brush, and wheels for any strings and lint. The success of the job depends on the condition of the equipment used.

B. Loose and frail carpet pile should be cut to prevent the loose ends from getting

caught in the vacuum cleaner brush or the wet/dry vacuum.


CARPET SHAMPOOING 9.9 Carpet Shampooing

Carpet shampooing can effectively remove dirt and restore carpet appearance. The equipment and supplies that are needed for carpet shampooing are:

Carpet Shampooer (Blue Goose) Wet/Dry Vacuum & Two Buckets Carpet Shampoo Defoamer Putty Knife Gum Remover Broom or Duster Clean Cloths Wet Floor Signs 1. Diagram furniture placement and remove furniture from room. 2. Thoroughly vacuum traffic areas. 3. Remove any gum from the floors with the gum remover. 4. Post wet floor signs. 5. Pour approximately 1-2 capfuls of Defoamer in the recovery (dirty water) tank of

the carpet shampooer.

Note – Do not over mix the solution. Using too much carpet shampoo can leave residue in the carpet that can quickly attract and hold soil. Too much shampoo can also cause too much foam to develop.

6. Pour approximately 1-2 capfuls of Defoamer in the tank of the wet/dry vacuum.


7. Extract the carpet shampoo thoroughly. Note – Using too much water may/will:

Increase drying time Increase the possibility for mold to develop Cause the carpet to separate from the floor Cause discoloration

8. Follow each wet pass with at least three dry passes. 9. Use fans to help dry the carpet. Allow 3 hours of drying time after final

extraction before allowing traffic on the carpet. Note – The air conditioner is not turned off during the summer. For energy management purposes it is set back to 82°.


CARPET SPOT CLEANING 9.10 Carpet Spot Cleaning

Time is important in spot removal. The faster you remove a spot, the better chance you have of preventing it from becoming a stain. Spots are concentrated substances lying near the carpet surface. Carpet shampoo can often remove a spot. However, stains that have penetrated the carpet fibers are more difficult to remove. 1. Remove any solid soils by gently scraping with a dull knife or putty knife. 2. Remove liquid spillage by blotting with a clean cloth or paper towel. 3. Apply carpet shampoo to the stained area and allow it to work for 30 seconds. 4. Blot the treated area with a clean cloth or paper towel to remove the loosened

stain and excess solution. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until most of the spot has disappeared. 6. Add water to the area with a sponge, wet cloth, or spray bottle. 7. Agitate with a sponge or cloth to generate foam. 8. Blot to dampness with a cloth or paper towel. 9. Avoid rubbing or over wetting of stains that tend to spread. 10. Difficult or deep stains may be more effectively treated by working spot remover

into stain with a soft brush or sponge. Avoid rubbing. Note – Some stains may have to be treated over a period of four or five days before the stain disappears. Note – For chewing gum removal, use the chewing gum remover to freeze the gum. When the gum becomes brittle, smash it with a blunt instrument.

Your new upright has many special features. All were designed for effortless cleaning because suction alone does not make a vacuum cleaner clean. There must be "air movement" to have cleaning power. That's why the nozzle has deep, wide air vents at both ends. These vents permit air to circulate between the nozzle and carpet at all times; the result ... our special self-propelling Cushionaire Cleaning. Your new upright also has exclusive curved fan blades which create more air volume per minute at less motor speed than straight blades. This means more efficient carpet cleaning and less electricity consumption; thus you save time and money.

NOTE: Do not connect cleaner to electrical outlet until it , Upper handle Square neck is assembled. C U N ~ ~ head bolt

BRUSH BRISTLES: Rmse in soapy water, then in clear water. Dry thoroughly before using. The Round Dusting Brush bristles, 10" Floor Brush Bristles and 6" nozzle insert are removable for washing.

TOUSEYOURCLEANERFORBLOWING Sometimes only a powerful blast of air will do the cleaning job needed. You may wish to blow-clean open bookcases, stereos, piano interior, refrigerator or freezer coils. When blowing, be conscious of where you will be blowing the dust. Our suggestion is to always blow it toward a dampened towel which will trap the dust and not scatter it in the air to resettle on other furniture. When you are finished, just toss the "dusty" towel into your washer. TO BLOW: Unplug cleaner. Detach outer cloth bag coupling from exhaust outlet. Attach metal end of hose in its place. Insert crevice tool at opposite end of hose. Plug in cleaner. Place dampened towel behind object to be cleaned and direct air so that it blow the dust against the towel. When you are finished, turn off and unplug the cleaner; remove the hose. Twist and lock the cloth bag to its usual cleaning position.

ACCESSORlESlOPTlONS (available from participating dealers)

ABOVE THE FLOOR CLEANING IS EASY: 1. Disconnect the cleaner from the electrical outlet,

remove the belt cover * or rotate grey rubber nozzle cover* and disengage the belt.

2. Snap in the hose connector adaptor by sliding spring into nozzle slot. It will stay firmly in place without twisting or turning.

3. Twist and lock the end of the hose to the adaptor. Add either the extension wands or the cleaning tool you plan to use. Plug in the cleaner, flip the switch and you're ready to go.

*Feature may differ according to model

USING THE FELT POLISHER PAD: The convenient accessory makes light work of dusting and polishing hardwood, linoleum, and other hard surface floors. Made of special felt composition, the Pad loosens dirt and surface film without scratching.

When you want to use the Felt Polisher Pad, exchange it for the metal Rug Nozzle Guard. Adjust the Pad to the hard surface floor as you would for a rug or carpet, until the button pops IN. At this point, the cleaner's front wheels will be "floating" slightly so that the Pad makes full contact with the floor.

Brushroll or bottom plate notinstalled properly

Check "Less Work" flyer forproper installationinstructions. Brushroll andnozzle guard (bottom plate)must be installed properly!

If you want to make your job easier when vacuuming with your All MetalRoyal Vacuum, follow the three steps below:

1.

Make sure the arrow on the brushroll and the arrow on the

nozzle guard are pointing in the same direction!2. :

Make sure that both end caps of the brushroll are on the

number 1 (ridges up). The two ridges should be pointing to the

nozzle guard! Both should be changed to the number 2 setting

after 600 hours.

3.

Make sure the belts are on properly. When facing the vacuum,

the right side of the belt is closer to you than the left side.

Always install the belt from the bag side of the machine. Be

sure that the front plug, as well as the nozzle guard (base

plate) are on all the way!

That's It!

1. Check I change the paper bag.

Always check the paper bag before vacuuming to

ensurethat your Royal operates at peak performance.

To dispose of the old paper bag, simply unzip theouter

bag, remove the full bag from the dirt tube at its card-board collar. To install a new bag, push the collar pastthe raised locking tabs on the top and bottom of thedirt tube. Be sure to tuck in the paper when zippingthe outer bag.

2. Releasing the handle.

The handle of your Royal vacuum locks inthe

upright position for storage.

To release the handle, simply push thehandle slightly forward and depress therelease lever with your foot. This is the

"use"position.

Should you wish to lay the handle flat,agaIn,

raise the handle and depress the lever asecond time and the handle will lock flat.

3.

Before you begin vacuuming, you must adjust the nozzle(head) to the proper height setting for the carpet. UsingThe five position foot pedal adjustment, lower the nozzleuntil the brushroll engages the carpet surface. The set-ting should be low enough for effective cleaning, yet highEnough that the cleaner is not difficult to push.

I. Remove old belt I clean brushroll.

After you've unI:):lugged your I:):ower cord, turn thevacuum over so that you can see the brushroll.Remove the metal bottom plate by pulling up onthe tab.

Remove brush and broken belt. Clean endcapsof brush so it spins freely. Loop new belt aroundbrushroll and see next step.

2. Brushroll endcaps turned properly.

Royal's brushroll design is engineered to provide extraservice time as well as superior cleaning.

First, when replacing the brush ( with belt looped .the middle) be sure that both endcaps are turned so ~44~~The side with the number 2 will be placed down into thenozzle.

The number 1 (and ridges) will be facing up towards you.,

Please note that you will have not yet connected thebelt to the motor shaft. The belt is loosely around

themiddle of the brushroll, the endcaps are turnedproperly and the arrows are pointing the samedirection. Now replace the bottom plate.

To reattach the belt onto the motor pulley, you

Now remove the nozzle cover from the frontof the nozzle by grabbing the tab and pull

willfirst need to turn the machine back over to the

useposition.

5.

Using the Belt Lifter Tool (which is provided), reachinto

the nozzle and grab hold of the belt. Always enterfrom

the same side as the outer bag so you will be comingacross the nozzle.

Pull the belt towards you resting the end of the BeltLifter Tool onto the motor pulley once you reach the7 o'clock position.

Reinstalling the belt {step 3).6.

Once the belt is resting at the 7 o'clock position on themotor pulley, simply rotate the belt by twisting yourwrist clockwise over the pulley.

The belt will be firmly attached when you reach the3 o'clock position. You do not need to force the beltfurther back on the pulley. When the machine isturned on, the belt will pull itself into place

If you are directly facing the nozzle, the right side ofa properly installed belt will be a little closer to youthan the left.

Now replace the Nozzle Cover and turn on thevacuum. If installed properly, the belt will remain onthe motor pulley and the brushroll will spin.

3.1. General description

This machine is a scrubber drier for sweeping, washing and drying flat, horizontal, smooth or moderately rough, even and obstacle free floors in civil and industrial premises. It is available in both battery and cable versions to meet all running time and weight requirements. The scrubber drier spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration on the floor and then scrubs it to remove the dirt. By carefully choosing the detergent and brushes (or abrasive disks) from the wide range of accessories available, the machine can be adapted to a wide range of combinations of types of floor and dirt. A suction system incorporated in the machine dries the floor after washing by means of the low pressure generated in the dirty water tank by the suction motor. The squeegee connected to the tank collects the dirty water.

3.2. Legend

The main parts of the machine are as follows (fig. A): • the detergent tank (fig. A, ref. 1): contains and transports the mixture of clean water

and detergent; • the dirty water tank (fig. A, ref. 2): collects the dirty water picked up from the floor after

washing; • control panel (fig. A, ref. 3); • head assembly (fig. A, ref. 4): the main element is the brush which distributes the

detergent solution on the floor and remove the dirt; • squeegee assembly (fig. A, ref. 5): wipes and dries the floor by collecting the water.

3.3. Danger zones

A - Tank assembly : when using certain detergents, danger of irritation for eyes, skin, mucous membranes and respiratory tract and of asphyxia. Danger represented by the dirt collected from the environment (germs and chemical substances). Danger of crushing between the two tanks when the dirty water tank is replaced on top of the detergent tank.

B - Control panel : danger of short circuit. C - Bottom of washing head : danger due to brush rotation. D - Rear wheels : danger of crushing between the wheel and chassis.

ENGLISH 6

E -Battery compartment (in the detergent tank): danger of short circuit between the battery poles and presence of hydrogen during charging.

3.4. Accessories

• Bristle brushes : for washing delicate floors and polishing; • Polypropylene brushes : for normal floor washing; • Tynex brushes : for removing accumulated stubborn dirt on resistant floors; • Drive disks : enable the following disks to be used:

∗ Yellow disks: for washing and polishing marble and similar surfaces;

∗ Green disks: for washing resistant floors; ∗ Black disks: for thorough washing of resistant floors with

stubborn dirt.

5. HANDLING AND INSTALLATION 5.1. Lifting and transporting the packaged machine

�� IMPORTANT During all lifting operations, make sure the packag ed machine is firmly anchored to

avoid it tipping up or being accidentally dropped. Always load/unload lorries in adequately lit areas.

The machine, packaged on a wooden pallet by the Manufacturer, must be loaded using suitable equipment (see EC Directive 2006/42 and subsequent amendments and/or additions) onto the transporting vehicle. At destination, it must be unloaded using similar means. A fork lift truck must always be used to lift the packaged body of the machine. Handle with care to avoid knocking or overturning the machine.

5.2. Checks on delivery

When the carrier delivers the machine, make sure the packaging and machine are both whole and undamaged. If the machine is damaged, make sure the carrier is aware of the damage and before accepting the goods, reserve the right (in writing) to request compensation for the damage.

5.3. Unpacking

�� IMPORTANT When unpacking the machine, the operator must be pr ovided with the necessary

personal protection devices (gloves, goggles, etc) to limit the risk of accident.

Unpack the machine as follows: • cut and remove the plastic straps using scissors or nippers; • open the packaging; • remove the bags included in the packaging and check the contents: - guarantee slip; - use and maintenance manual; - battery bridges with terminals (battery model only); - battery charger connector (battery models only); • remove the machine from the packaging; • clean the outside of the machine in respect of safety regulations; • after unpacking the machine, install the batteries (battery models) or connect the

electrical connections (cable models). See relevant sections.

The packaging may be kept as it can be reused to protect the machine if it is moved to another site or to a repair workshop. Otherwise it must be disposed off in compliance with current legislation.

5.4. Electrical connections and earth (cable models )

The electrical characteristics of the machine are given on the rating plate. Make sure the frequency and voltage correspond to those of the mains supply where the machine will be operated. As far as voltage is concerned, models where the rating plate specifies a voltage of 230 V can be used with voltages of between 220 V and 240 V. Similarly, models rated at 115 V can be used at between 110 V and 120 V. The frequency on the plate must always correspond to the mains voltage.

ENGLISH 10

� IMPORTANT Make sure the mains circuit is suitably earthed and that the sockets (and any

adaptors used) ensure the continuity of the earth c onductors.

! DANGER Failure to observe these instructions could cause p ossibly serious damage to people

and things and invalidates the guarantee.

5.5. Power supply batteries (battery models)

Two different types of battery may be installed on these machines: • tubular leak-proof batteries : the electrolyte level must be checked regularly. When

necessary, top up with distilled water until the plates are covered. Do not over fill (5 mm max. above the plates).

• gel batteries : this type of battery requires no maintenance. The technical characteristics must correspond to those indicated in the paragraph on the technical specification of the machine. The use of heavier batteries could seriously jeopardise manoeuvrability and lead to the brush motor overheating. Batteries with a lower capacity and weight will require charging more frequently. They must be kept charged, dry and clean and the connections must be tight.

5.5.1. Batteries: preparation

! DANGER During installation of the batteries or any type of battery maintenance, the operator must be provided with the necessary personal protec tion devices (gloves, goggles

overalls, etc) to limit the risk of accident. Keep away from naked flames, avoid short circuiting the battery poles, avoid sparks an d do not smoke.

The batteries are normally supplied filled with acid and ready for use. If the batteries are dry, before mounting them on the machine, proceed as follows: • remove the caps and fill all elements with specific sulphuric acid solution until the

plates are entirely covered (this requires at least a couple of passes for each element); • leave for 4-5 hours to allow the air bubbles to come to the surface and the plates to

absorb the electrolyte; • make sure the level of electrolyte is still above the plates and if necessary top up with

sulphuric acid solution; • close the caps; • mount the batteries on the machine (following the procedure described below). Before starting up the machine for the first time, charge the batteries as follows.

5.5.2. Batteries: installation and connection

! DANGER Check that all switches on the control panel are in the "0" (off) position.

Make sure you connect the terminals marked with a " +" to the positive poles of the battery. Do not check the battery charge by sparkin g.

Meticulously follow the instructions given below as short circuiting the batteries could cause them to explode.

• Make sure the dirty water tank is empty and empty if necessary (see relevant paragraph).

• Lift the dirty water tank (fig. B, ref. 1) off the detergent tank by pulling it upwards, making sure you have previously removed the suction hose and dirty water tank drain hose from their housings.

• Place the batteries in the battery compartment.

ENGLISH 11

�� IMPORTANT Mount the batteries on the machine using lifting me ans suitable for their weight.

The positive and negative poles have different diam eters.

• Connect the battery wiring and bridge terminals to the battery poles. Tighten the terminals on the poles and cover with Vaseline.

• Put the dirty water tank back on the detergent tank. • When using the machine, follow the instructions below.

5.5.3. Batteries: removal

! DANGER When removing the batteries, the operator must be e quipped with suitable personal protection devices (gloves, goggles, overalls, safe ty shoes, etc) to reduce the risk of accidents. Make sure the switches on the control panel are in the "0" position (off) and the machine is turned off. Keep away from naked flames, do not short

circuit the battery poles, do not cause sparks and do not smoke. Proceed as follows:

• disconnect the battery wiring and bridge terminals from the battery poles. • if necessary, remove the devices fixing the battery to the base of the machine. • lift the batteries from the compartment using suitable lifting equipment.

5.6. Battery charger (battery models)

�� IMPORTANT Never allow the batteries to become excessively fla t as this could damage them

irreparably.

i INFORMATION If the machine has an ON-BOARD battery charger (ins talled by the manufacturer),

no operations are required as it will already be re ady for use.

5.6.1. Choosing a battery charger (machines without ON-BOARD battery charger)

Make sure the battery charger is compatible with the batteries to be charged: − tubular lead batteries : you are recommended to use a 24V - 5A automatic battery

charger. However, you should always consult the battery charger manufacturer and manual to confirm the choice.

− gel batteries : use a charger specific for this type of battery.

5.6.2. Preparing the battery charger

If you wish to use a battery charger not provided with the machine, you must fit it with the connector supplied with the machine (see paragraph "Unpacking" in this manual). To install the connector, proceed as follows: • remove about 13 mm of protective sheath from the red and black wires of the battery

charger; • insert the wires into the connector contacts and squeeze them forcefully with suitable

pliers; • respect the polarity (red wire + black wire –) when inserting the wires into the

connector.

ENGLISH 12

5.7. Lifting and transporting the machine

�� IMPORTANT All phases must be performed in an adequately lit r oom and adopting the safety

measures most appropriate to the situation. The operator must always use personal protection de vices.

To load the machine onto a means of transport, proceed as follows: • empty the dirty water and detergent tanks; • place the machine in the packaging, then rest the packaging on a pallet and fix it with

plastic straps; • lift the pallet (with the machine) using a fork lift truck and load it onto the means of

transport; • anchor the machine to the means of transport with cables connected to the pallet and

machine itself.

6. PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR THE OPERATOR 6.1. Controls - Description

With reference to fig. C, the machine has the following controls and indicator lights:

• Power on light (fig. C, ref. 7 - cable model only): green, indicates that the machine's power cable is connected to the mains.

• Battery charge light (fig. C, ref. 2 - battery models only): 3 LEDs (red, yellow and green) which indicate the level of battery charge. There may be: a) red, yellow and green LEDs on : battery voltage >24V; b) red and yellow LEDs on : battery voltage <24V; c) red LEDs on : battery voltage <23V; d) red LED flashing : battery voltage <21.5V, batteries completely flat; after a few

seconds the brush and suction motor shut down;

• Main Switch (fig. C, ref. 3): enables and disables electrical power to all machine functions (to turn the machine off, hold the button down for at least 4 seconds).

• Brush button with light (fig. C, ref. 4): enables (LED on) and disables (LED off) the "brush" function. The brush does not start rotating until the brush lever is operated.

• Suction button with light (fig. C, ref. 5): turns the suction motor on (LED on) and off (LED off) to dry the floor being washed. The light is on when there is power to the suction motor.

• Detergent button (fig. C, ref. 6): enables (LED on) and disables (LED off) detergent flow. The detergent does not flow unless the brush is rotating.

• Brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1): enables brush rotation.

• Squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2): raises (if lowered) or lowers (if raised) the squeegee.

• Handle regulation lever (fig. D, ref. 3): allows the angle of the handle to be adjusted.

6.2. Mounting and adjusting the squeegee

The squeegee (fig. A, ref. 5) is responsible for the first phase of drying. To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows: 1) check that the squeegee mount (fig. E, ref. 1) is lowered, otherwise lower it by means

of the squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2); 2) rotate the machine backwards and rest the handle on the floor; 3) insert the two threaded pins on the squeegee into the slots on the support (fig. E, ref.

1); 4) fix the squeegee by tightening the two knobs (fig. E, ref. 2);

ENGLISH 13

5) insert the sleeve of the suction hose (fig. E, ref. 4) fully into the squeegee; The squeegee blades scrape the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare the way for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the floor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring it to be replaced. The state of wear should be checked frequently. For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear blade bends during operation by about 45° with resp ect to the floor at every point. Adjust the height of the blade during operation by regulating the height of the wheels positioned behind and alongside the squeegee (fig. E ref. 3).

6.3. Moving the machine when not in operation

To move the machine, proceed as follows:

• lift the squeegee using the squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2);

• raise the front of the machine by levering on the handle and move it to the destination.

• on arrival, lower the front of the machine.

6.4. Mounting and changing the brush/drive disks

� IMPORTANT Never work without the brushes and drive disks corr ectly installed.

Brush attachment : turn the machine on by pressing the main switch (fig. C, ref. 3) (LED on), then press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4 (LED on). Rest the brush on the floor in front of the machine. Raise the front of the machine by levering on the handle, then lower it onto the brush, centring it with the brush cover. Operate the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1) repeatedly until the brush automatically engages on the flange hub. If the manoeuvre is not successful, press on the handle again and repeat the centring and repeated operation of the brush lever.

Brush release : turn the machine on by pressing the main switch (fig. C, ref. 3) (LED on), then press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4 (LED on). Raise the front of the machine by levering on the handle, then operate the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1) repeatedly. After a few pulses, the brush (or drive disk) is released and falls to the ground.

6.5. Detergents - Instructions

concentration of clean water and low-foam detergent. Leave at least 5 cm between the surface of the liquid and the opening of the tank;

• mount the most suitable brushes or drive disks for the floor and work to be performed (see paragraph 3.4);

• make sure the squeegee (fig. A, ref. 5) is firmly attached and connected to the suction hose (fig. E, ref. 4). Make sure the back blade is not worn.

i INFORMATION If you are using the machine for the first time, we recommend trying it on a large

obstacle-free surface first to acquire the necessar y familiarity. Always empty the dirty water tank before filling th e detergent tank again.

For effective cleaning and to extend the working life of the machine, follow a few simple rules: • prepare the work area by removing all possible obstacles; • begin working from the furthermost point to avoid walking on the area you have just

cleaned; • choose the straightest possible working routes; • divide large floors into parallel rectangular sections. If necessary, finish off by passing a mop or rag rapidly over parts inaccessible to the scrubber drier.

6.7. Working

After setting up the machine, proceed as follows:

• Connect the machine as follows: - cable model: plug the machine into the mains power socket;

• lower the squeegee by means of the squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2); • press the main switch (fig. C, ref. 3) (LED on); • press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4) (LED on)”, the suction motor and detergent flow

are also activated automatically; • press the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1);

• check regularly that detergent is reaching the brushes and top up if necessary;

• while working, check the quality of washing and adjust the flow of detergent to the brushes using the detergent tap (fig. G, ref. 2).

�� IMPORTANT Empty the dirty water tank each time you fill the d etergent tank.

• The float switch in the dirty water tank turns suction off when the tank is full. If the switch trips, stop work and empty the tank;

• Battery models: if the red LED (fig. C, ref. 2) starts flashing, the batteries are nearly flat. After a few seconds, the brush and suction motor shut down to prevent draining the batteries excessively. Charge the batteries.

ENGLISH 15

At the end of work: • release the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1); • press the detergent button (fig. C, ref. 6) (LED off); • press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4) (LED off); • lift the squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2) to raise the squeegee from the floor to prevent

the continuous pressure from warping the blades; • press the suction button (fig. C, ref. 5) (LED on) and brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1) to start

suction. Allow the suction to run for 2 minutes, then release the brush lever and press the suction button (fig. C, ref. 5) (LED off) to turn the motor off.

• Turn the machine off by pressing the button (fig. C, ref. 3) for at least 4 seconds. • remove the brush (or drive disk) to prevent it from warping permanently; • depending on the model, unplug from the mains socket or disconnect the batteries, • empty and clean the dirty water tank.

6.8. Some useful tips to get the most from your scr ubber drier •

In the event of particularly stubborn dirt on the floor, washing and drying can be performed in two separate operations.

6.8.1. Prewashing with brushes or pads

• press the main switch (fig. C, ref. 3) (LED on); • press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4) (LED on); • press the suction button (fig. C, ref. 5) (LED off) to turn suction off; • operate the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1) to enable brush rotation; • make sure the suction motor is off and the squeegee is raised; • begin washing.

• adjust the flow of detergent to the brush by means of the detergent tap (fig. G, ref. 2). Flow speed must be regulated according to the operator's chosen advance speed. The slower the machine moves forwards, the less water is needed. Persist when washing particularly dirty points to give the detergent time to perform its chemical action detaching and suspending the dirt and the brushes time to exert an effective mechanical action.

6.8.2. Drying

Lower the squeegee and with the suction motor on, pass over the same area washed previously. The result is equivalent to in-depth washing and subsequent ordinary maintenance will take less time. To wash and dry at the same time, operate the brush, detergent flow, squeegee and suction motor simultaneously.

6.9. Draining the dirty water

! DANGER Use suitable personal protection devices.

Drain the water with the machine disconnected from the power supply. The dirty water tank drain hose is at the back of the machine on the right. To empty the tank: • move the machine near a drain; • detach the drain hose (fig. A, ref. 7) from its seat by holding it near the fixing spring and

pulling horizontally; • keeping the end of the hose as high as possible and remove the cap; • lower the end of the hose gradually, controlling the intensity of the flow of water by

adjusting the height from the ground; • check the amount of dirt left in the dirty water tank and if necessary wash it out;

ENGLISH 16

• close the drain hose with the cap. Check that it is tightly closed and replace the hose in its housing.

• You are then ready to wash and dry again.

6.10. Draining the clean water

! DANGER Use suitable personal protection devices.

Drain the water with the machine disconnected from the power supply.

To empty the tank: • move the machine near a drain; • remove the cap (fig. G, ref. 1); • when the detergent tank is completely empty, replace the cap (fig. G, ref. 1).

i INFORMATION The water and detergent solution can also be used t o wash the dirty water tank.

7. PERIODS OF INACTIVITY If the machine is not used for some time, remove the squeegee and brush (or drive disk), wash them and put them away in a dry place (preferably in a bag or wrapped in plastic film) away from dust. Make sure the tanks are completely empty and perfectly clean. Disconnect the machine from the power supply (depending on the model, unplug from the mains or disconnect the connector from the battery wiring). Battery models: charge the batteries completely before storing them. During long periods of inactivity, you should charge the batteries regularly (at least once every two months) to keep them constantly at maximum charge.

�� IMPORTANT If you do not charge the batteries regularly, they may be irrevocably damaged.

8. BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND CHARGING

! DANGER Do not check the batteries by sparking.

The batteries give off flammable fumes. Put out all fires and hot embers before checking or topping up the batteries.

Perform the operations described above in a ventila ted room.

To avoid permanent damage to the batteries, do not run them down completely. Remember that when the corresponding red light (fig. C, ref. 2) flashes on the control panel, you must charge the batteries.

8.1. Charging procedure

• if the machine does not have an on-board charger, connect the external battery charger connector to the battery wiring connector.

• if the machine has an on-board battery charger, connect the on-board battery charger power cable (fig. H, ref. 1).

ENGLISH 17

�� IMPORTANT In the case of gel batteries, use a charger specifi c for gel batteries only.

• Charge the batteries as described in the battery charger manual; • at the end of charging, disconnect the connectors; • reconnect the battery wiring connector to the machine connector (machine with external

battery charger).

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:

When using an electric burnisher, basic precautions should always be following, including the following:

GROUNDING

SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONSThis burnisher must be grounded. If itshould malfunction or breakdown, ground-ing provides a path of least resistance forelectrical current to reduce the risk of elec-tric shock. The burnisher is equipped witha cord having an equipment-grounded plug.The plug must be inserted into an appropri-ate outlet that is properly installed andgrounded in accordance with all localcodes and ordinances

If repair or replacement of the cord or plugis necessary, DO NOT connect the ground-ing wire to either flat blade terminal. Thewire with insulation having an outer surfacethat is green with or without yellow stripesis the grounding wire.

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

WARNING:

DANGER:

PAGE 2

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk ofelectrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in

doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the burnisher. If it will not fit the

outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

NOTE:In Canada, the use of a

temporary adaptor is notpermitted by the

Canadian Electrical Code.

This burnisher can be used in conjunctionwith any of the ultra high speed chemical sys-tems. It is mandatory, however, that the floorbe prepared as directed by the chemicalmanufacturer. This will eliminate a possibilityof damage to floor due to the burnishers highspeed.

The burnisher is pre-set at the factory foruse with a 1" thick buffing pad (1 shpd w/unit).The rougher hair surface is preferred forhigh luster floor finishing.

1. Before operating this burnisher, check tosee that the buffing pad is properly centeredon driver and that center pad lock is tight onpad.

2. When operating the burnisher it MUSTbe kept moving, as holding machine station-ary while running will result in damage tofloor and floor finish.

3. Begin operating the burnisher at the clos-est point to your electrical outlet and workaway from the outlet. This will prevent run-ning over the electric cord.

4. Never leave burnisher resting on buffingpad for an extended period of time. This willcause buffing pad to lose its normal shape,causing wobbling or vibration and pad mustbe replaced. Also, replace pad if glazed,clogged, torn or shredded.

5. The rear wheels on the 1500 RPM and2000 RPM burnishers are factory-set forlow amp rating and high luster burnishingwith buffing pad. See instruction sheet.

6. A carbon brush wear indicator warninglight is located on the motor canopy. Whenlit, motor carbon brushes must be replacedwithin 20 hours running time to preventdamage to motor. See instruction sheet.

PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE1 Inspect the machine, hoses, and cleaning tools for cleanliness and completeness.2 Screw the Recovery Tank Lid (1) closed. Ensure the Recovery Tank Drain (3) is closed tightly.3 Pre-spray spots and heavy traffi c areas before extracting with the detergent of your choice. Mix the pre-spray according to the detergent

manufacturer’s directions.4 Fill the solution tank (8) with clear water (13 gal. / 49 L capacity). If desired, add a detergent or rinse of your choice (we recommend a

CRI approved detergent). If you choose to add a detergent to the solution tank, be sure to mix well, and always follow the use & dilution instructions on the detergent label. Only use a detergent with a pH between 5 and 10. Although this machine is designed to supply instant hot water, the addition of warm water to the solution tank would increase heater effi ciency. Never use water above 130º F/54º C in the solution tank.

CAUTION!Use low-sudsing, liquid detergents designed for carpet extraction.

A - 10 BEXT Pro 100, 400 - 56091031 8/11


OPERATING THE MACHINE

1 Follow the instructions in the Preparing the Machine for Use section of this manual.2 Turn off all the switches. Plug the power cords into properly grounded outlets. Do not connect both cords to the same outlet; the green,

Circuit Indicator Light (E) on the switch plate should light up. If the indicator light does not come on, try different outlets until it does. “Do not connect both cords to the same outlet.”

3 Attach the priming hose to the machine and place the open end into the solution tank.4 Turn ON the solution pump (C) and let it run until the pump is fully primed (approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute). Once the pump is primed,

turn off the pump and remove the priming hose. NOTE: If priming is diffi cult, place the open end of the priming hose into the Vacuum inlet hose barb, and turn the vacuum on. Use your hand to block the open area in the hose barb. This will allow the pump and the vacuum to work together to get the water moving.

5 Connect a solution line to the Solution Hose Quick Disconnect (5). Attach the other end of the solution line to the cleaning tool.6 Connect a vacuum hose to the Vacuum Hose Barb (2). Attach the other end of the vacuum hose to the cleaning tool.7 To use heated water for cleaning, press the Heat Switch (D) on. Wait two minutes for the heat exchanger to reach temperature.8 Press the Pump Switch (C) to ON (I).9 Press the Vacuum Switch (B) to ON (I).10 Spray through your tool a few times to fi ll the lines with solution. Begin cleaning.11 Note for 400H models only: To adjust the solution spray pressure; rotate the Pressure Adjustment Knob (13) clockwise to increase pressure

and counterclockwise to decrease pressure. The pump spraying pressure will be observable at the Pressure Gauge (15) while spraying. Make sure the cleaning tool is spraying when adjusting the pressure, otherwise the pressure reading will be inaccurate.

12 Watch the fl uid entering the Recovery Tank Lid (1). If there is a large amount of suds in the recovery tank, add a defoamer chemical to the recovery tank.

CAUTION!• Empty the recovery tank before the fl uid or foam enters the vacuum motor.• If foam or liquid escapes from the machine, switch off immediately.

CAUTION!Always make sure the fl oat is clean and travels freely before turning on the machine. A fl oat that is stuck will cause the vacuum motor to suck in water, resulting in vac motor damage.

13 The recovery tank has a Recovery Tank Shutoff Float (7) to block the vacuum system when the recovery tank is full. You can tell when the fl oat closes by the sudden change in the sound of the vacuum motor. When the fl oat closes, the recovery tank must be emptied. The machine can continue to dispense solution, but will not pick up water with the fl oat closed.

14 Monitor the water level in the solution tank. Do not let the pump run dry. When the solution tank gets low, turn off the pump and the vacuum motor, refi ll the solution tank with water and the proper ratio of cleaning detergent. Empty the recovery tank and continue cleaning.

15 When the operator has completed the job; vacuum all unused solution from the solution tank into the recovery tank, turn off the pump, vacuum motor and heat exchanger. Unplug the machine.

16 Push the machine to a designated waste water “DISPOSAL SITE” and empty the recovery tank. Drain the recovery tank by opening the drain gate (3) over a drain or a bucket.

17 Follow the instructions in the After Using the Machine section of this manual.

SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

When using this electric vacuum, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

Electrical equipment must be grounded. Ifit should mal-function or breakdown,grounding provides a path of least resist-ance for electrical current to reduce therisk of electric shock. This vacuum isequipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug.The plug must be inserted into an appro-priate outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all localcodes and ordinances.

If repair or replacement of the cord orplug is necessary, DO NOT connect thegrounded wire to either flat blade termi-nal. The wire with insulation having anouter surface that is green with or withoutyellow stripes is the grounding wire.

GROUNDING

METHODS

This electric equipment is for use on anominal 120 volt circuit, and has agrounded plug that looks like the plug illus-trated in (Fig A). A temporary adaptor thatlooks like the adaptor illustrated in (Fig B& C) may be used to connect this plug toa 2-pole receptacle as shown in (Fig B) ifa properly grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adaptor should be usedonly until a properly grounded outlet (Fig A)can be installed by a qualified electrician.The green color rigid ear, lug or the likeextending from the adaptor must be con-nected to a permanent ground such as aproperly grounded outlet box cover.Whenever the adaptor is used, it must beheld in place by a metal screw (Fig C).

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result ina risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service per-son if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the equipment. If it will not fit

the outlet,have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Note: In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
