User manual NILFISK CR 1500

[. . . ] This manual will help you get the most from your American-Lincoln sweeper / scrubber. Read it thoroughly before operating the machine. Repairs, when required, should be performed by your Authorized American-LincolnTM Service Center, who employs factory trained service personnel, and maintains an inventory of American-LincolnTM original replacement parts and accessories. Call the AMERICAN-LINCOLN INDUSTRIAL DEALER named below for repairs or service. [. . . ] The foot brake on the front wheels is a mechanical system actuated by the brake pedal. Put foot pressure on the upper portion of the pedal (b). Increase the foot pressure on the upper portion of the pedal to increase the forward speed. Put foot pressure on the lower portion of the pedal (c). Increase the foot pressure on the lower portion of the pedal to increase the reverse speed. To stop the machine, put light foot pressure on the opposite end of the accelerator and directional control pedal. If the machine is moving forward put light foot pressure on the lower portion of the pedal. If the machine is moving in reverse put light foot pressure on the upper portion of the pedal. The alarm makes a loud audible noise when the machine is being driven in reverse. This lever allows the seat to be adjusted forward or back when the lever is moved. The Solution High Warning Light (B) will come on if the solution tank is too full of water from the recycling system. When the dust filters become clogged the filter shaker switch should be pushed to start the dust shaker cycle. This will extend the life of the filters. Fill the tank with 100 gallons (378 L) of water and the correct mixture of American-Lincoln #100 Industrial Cleaner for the job.

[. . . ] Except for a few drops of oil applied to the lever pivot every 100 hours, the system should require no major maintenance. The solution control should shut off completely with the lever in the (rear) "off" position. If complete shut off does not occur, the control cable should be adjusted. If the detergent pump fails to operate (engine running) when the solution control lever is moved into the low to high range, first check the circuit by manually activating the switch. [. . . ]
