SPECIAL NOTES:

The weighted root mean square acceleration at the

operator’s arms was measured to be below 2.5m/s².

This was a tri-axial, third-octave-band measurement

made during normal operation on a composite tile

floor. The measurement and related calculations were

made in accordance with ANSI S3.34-1986.

The sound pressure level at the operator’s ear was

measured to be 72.3 dBA. This was a nearfield, broad-

band measurement taken in a typical industrial

environment on a tile floor. This appliance contains no

possible source of impact noise. The instantaneous

HOW THE MACHINE WORKS

The Saber Glide is a battery powered, self-

propelled, hard floor scrubber intended for

commercial use. The appliance applies a cleaning

solution onto a hard floor, scrubs the floor with

brushes, and then vacuums the soiled water back

into the recovery tank.

The function of the recovery system is to vacuum the

soiled water back into the recovery tank. The

recovery system consists of the squeegee, vacuum

motor, filter, recovery tank and controls. The

squeegee wipes the dirty solution off the floor as the

machine moves forward. The vacuum motor

provides suction to draw the dirty solution off the

floor and into the recovery tank. The filter protects

the vacuum fan from debris and foam. The recovery

tank stores the dirty solution.

The machine's primary systems are the solution

system, scrub system, recovery system, and

operator control system.

The function of the solution system is to store

cleaning solution and deliver it to the scrub system.

The solution system consists of the solution tank,

strainer, valve and controls. The solution tank

stores cleaning solution (water and detergent) until it

is delivered to the scrub system. The strainer

protects the valve from debris. The valve is a

solenoid type valve, which controls the delivery of

cleaning solution to the scrub system. The valve

automatically prevents solution flow unless the scrub

brushes are turned on and the machine is being

propelled. The solution control switch controls the

amount of cleaning solution delivered to the scrub

system by controlling the amount of time the valve is

open.

The float switch in the tank activates the recovery

tank full indicator, shuts off the scrub motors and

solution flow, raises the scrub deck then squeegee,

and shuts off vacuum motor.

The function of the operator control system is to

control the direction and speed of the machine. The

directional control system consists of the

direction/speed control pedal, steering wheel, brake

pedal, propel controller, and drive wheel. The

direction/speed pedal signals forward or reverse

direction and speed. The controller interprets signals

from the direction/speed pedal to command the drive

wheel to propel or slow the machine. The steering

wheel points the drive wheel in the direction desired

by the operator. The brake can be used to hold the

machine on slopes.

The function of the scrub system is to scrub the

floor.

The disk scrub systems consists of two rotary type

disk scrub brushes, motors, scrub deck skirt, lift

actuator and controls. The brushes scrub the floor

as the motors drive the brushes. The brush drive

hubs allow the scrub brushes to follow irregularities

and changes in the floor without loosing contact with

the floor. The scrub deck skirts and side squeegees

control the cleaning solution on the floor so that the

squeegee can pick it up. The one touch switch

controls the motors and lift actuator to turn the

motors on and lower the deck, or turn the motors off

and raise the deck. The brush pressure switch

controls the down pressure on the scrub deck.

MAINTENANCE SECTION.

Plan the scrubbing pattern in advance. The longest

track is around the perimeter of the area to be

cleaned. For efficient operation, the runs should be

the longest possible without turning, stopping, or

raising or lowering scrub deck/squeegee.

STARTING MACHINE

In order to achieve the best possible results, the

area which is to be cleaned should be swept before

scrubbing. Large debris, strings and wire must be

removed to prevent being caught in brushes or

squeegee.

NOTE: Perform pre-run machine check before

operating machine.

FOR SAFETY: Before starting machine, make

sure that all safety devices are in place and

operating properly.

The machine will automatically raise the squeegee

slightly when reverse travel is selected. If the

machine is allowed to stand in neutral with the scrub

deck down for more than 2 seconds, the solutions

flow stops and brush motors stop. If either forward

or reverse travel is selected, the solution flow will

continue in the same setting and the scrub brush

motors will continue in their same setting once

movement of machine begins. Overlap the brush

path and avoid transporting over previously cleaned

areas.

1. The operator should be in the seat with the right

foot on the brake pedal or with the parking brake

on. The directional pedal must be in the neutral

position to avoid unintentional movement.

NOTE: The Operator must be in position on the

seat to activate machine in desired direction.

2. Turn the key switch clockwise to the “ON”

position.

3. Release the brake, then press lightly on the

directional pedal in the desired direction and

drive to the filling area.

FILLING THE MACHINE

FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing

machine; stop on level surface, set parking

brake, turn off machine and remove key.

1. Set squeegee and scrub deck to up position, set

parking brake, and turn off key switch.

2. Remove solution tank cover.

Flammable materials can

cause an explosion or fire.

! WARNING

Do not use flammable materials in the tanks.

EMERGENCY STOP PROCEDURE

1. Turn key switch to off position. If an electrical

problem is suspected push in emergency stop

button.

2. Release pressure on directional pedal.

3. Apply brakes.

NOTE: Turning the key switch off during normal

running operation will stop all motors and actuators.

When the key is turned back on the system will

automatically return scrub deck and squeegee to

raised position.

When operating the

machine around people,

! CAUTION

pay close attention for unexpected movement.

Use extra caution around children.

1. Place right foot on brake pedal or check to make

sure parking brake has been set.

2. With directional pedal in neutral turn key switch

5. Press the one-touch switch (#1) on the control

panel. The brush motors will start, the scrub

deck will lower to the light scrub position, the

solution will begin to flow, the squeegee will

lower to the floor and the vacuum motors will

start.

DOUBLE SCRUB

Floors which are heavily soiled or have thick

accumulation of floor finish may not clean sufficiently

with one pass. In these cases it will be necessary to

double scrub.

To double scrub, make the first pass over the

surface being cleaned with the squeegee up, the

solution on, and brushes down. This allows the

solution to stay in contract with the soil while

loosening the surface accumulation with the

brushes. Allow time for the first application to stay in

contact with floor. Length of time between the first

and second pass depends on amount of

accumulation and the type of chemical being used.

A second scrubbing with the squeegee down and

again the solution and brushes on will further loosen

soil. The additional application of solution will further

assist the difficult cleaning job. Caution should be

used when double scrubbing, maintain safe driving

speed on wet floors.

6. Adjust the speed of the machine, solution flow

and scrub brush pressure as necessary.

NOTE: Once solution flow rate is set it is not

necessary to shut off solution when stopping

scrubbing. Solution flow is automatically shut off

when brush motors stop. When brush motors

are activated, flow automatically resumes.

Flammable liquids and/or

! WARNING

reactive metals can cause

explosions or fire! Do not pick up.

TO STOP SCRUBBING

1. Press the one-touch switch (#1) on the control

panel. The brush motors will stop and the scrub

deck will raise to the park position. After 15

seconds, the squeegee will raise, and 15

seconds later the vacuum motor will turn off.

This delay is to clear the vacuum hose of

recovered solution.

2. Allow directional pedal to return to neutral.

3. Apply brake to stop machine.

4. Turn key switch off.

5. Set parking brake.

FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing

machine; stop on level surface, set parking

brake, turn off machine and remove key.

The batteries provide the power to operate the

machine. The batteries require regular maintenance

to keep them operating at peak efficiency.

To get the greatest life from the batteries charge

them when their charge level reaches 25%of a full

charge. Use a hydrometer to check the charge

level.

Do not allow the batteries to remain in a discharged

condition for any length of time. Never expose a

discharged battery to temperatures below freezing.

Discharged batteries will freeze causing cracked

case. Do not operate the machine if the batteries

are in poor condition or if they have a charge level

below 25%, specific gravity below 1.177.

Keep all metallic objects off the top of the batteries,

as they may cause a short circuit. Replace worn or

damaged cables and terminals.

Check the electrolyte level in each battery cell

before and after charging the batteries. Never add

acid to the batteries, use water. Do not allow water

level to fall below the battery plates. Portions of

plates exposed to air will be destroyed. Do not

overfill. Keep plugs firmly in place at all times.

TO ADJUST SQUEEGEE DEFLECTION

2. SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT

Adjusting the squeegee is a two-part process. First,

the squeegee tool must have correct pitch in order

for the squeegee blade to have the same deflection

at each tip as well as the center. The pitch

adjustment is facilitated by the use of a spirit level

mounted on the squeegee tool. The second

adjustment is the amount of deflection or down

pressure on the squeegee.

3/8”

TO ADJUST SQUEEGEE PITCH

1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Turn on the key

switch, release the machine parking brake,

lower the squeegee and drive forward at least 2

feet (60 cm).

2. With the squeegee down, stop the machine and

set the parking brake. Do not allow the machine

to roll back.

PROPER DEFLECTION OF SQUEEGEE BLADE

1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Lower the

squeegee and drive forward at least 2 feet.

to roll back.

FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing

machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine

and remove key.

FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing

machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine

and remove key.

3. Determine the differences, if any, in deflection of

the squeegee blade between each end and the

middle. Proper adjustment is obtained when

deflection is equal all the way across tool. This

should correspond to the bubble being in the

middle position of the spirit level.

4. To decrease the deflection of the squeegee

blade at the ends, turn knob on squeegee

trailing arm clockwise. To increase the deflection

at the ends of the squeegee assembly, turn

knob counter clockwise.

3. Observe the amount of squeegee deflection. It

should deflect 3/8in (9.5 mm) across the entire

width of the squeegee.

4. To adjust the squeegee deflection, loosen knob

on the squeegee slide bar.

5. Sliding bar to left increases deflection. Sliding

bar to right decreases deflection.

6. Tighten knob on squeegee slide bar.

7. Turn on the key switch, release the machine

parking brake. Raise, then lower squeegee

assembly by pressing the vacuum switch. Drive

forward at least 2 feet.

5. Again check the deflection of the squeegee

blades. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until the

deflection is equal across the entire rear

squeegee blade.

4. SCRUB BRUSHES

REPLACING OR INSTALLING SCRUB

There are five different types of brushes available to

cover applications from cleaning heavily soiled floors

to polishing. A pad driver is also available to take

advantage of the many cleaning pads on the market

and further add to the flexibility of the machine.

Please refer to the following to assist in selecting the

proper brush or pad for the work at hand.

BRUSHES

The scrub brushes should be checked before each

days work for wire, string, wear, or damage. The

scrub brushes should be replaced if brush bristles

are missing or if shorter than 5/8 inch.

NOTE: For uniform scrubbing, scrub brushes must

be replaced as a set.

UNCOATED FLOORS

Aggressive Grit is a nylon fiber impregnated with

silicone carbide grit. It grinds away stain, soil, and

removes surface material.

1. With the scrub deck up, turn off the machine and

set the parking brake.

2. Loosen side squeegee locking knob, and pivot

side squeegee away from scrub deck.

3. Locate release lever on top of brush or pad

driver. With finger rotate release lever against

spring pressure counter clockwise. Brush/pad

driver will release and drop down.

Mild Grit is a less aggressive silicone carbide grit

suitable for cleaning medium soil conditions.

Advantages are faster ground speed than nylon

bristles on light solid applications.

4. To reinstall, center the cut out of the release

lever plate on brush/pad driver to be installed

under the brush drive hub.

Nylon is a general-purpose scrub brush with stiff

bristles.

5. Raise brush/pad drive up until assembly

contacts brush hub. Rotate slightly until drive

engages release lever plate.

Polypropylene works well for maintaining concrete,

wood and tile floors.

6. While holding upward pressure, rotate brush/pad

driver assembly clockwise. When fully engaged,

release lever plate will rotate under spring

pressure to lock assembly.

FINISHED FLOORS

Nylon bristles are used in a variety of applications

on coated or uncoated surfaces.

NOTE: Check that release plate is completely closed

and pad/brush is securely attached. Damage to

driver or brush could occur.

Polypropylene bristles work on a variety of floor

surfaces. Does not soften in water

White Pads (Polishing) are used for dry polishing to

achieve a high-gloss appearance, or surface

washing on highly polished or burnished floors.

7. Repeat the procedure for the opposite side of

the machine.

Red Pads (Buffing) are used for light-duty

scrubbing. When used with a mild detergent they

will provide surface cleaning without removing the

finish.

Blue Pads (Scrubbing) are used for heavy-duty

scrubbing and light stripping. The blue pads remove

less finish than brown stripping pads, yet will remove

black marks, stains and dirt.

Brown Pads (Stripping) are used for easy and

complete removal of old floor waxes/finishes. They

will quickly remove ground in dirt, black heel marks,

and spills. When used with the proper stripper, this

pad leaves the floor clean and ready for finishing.
