PREPARINGTHE MACHINEFOR OPERATION(ICEnginePowered)
1. Connectand tighten battery cables.
2. Fillthe tank with REGULAR GRADE gasoline. (Diesel fuel if equipped with diesel engine.)
WARNING
Never fill the tank while the engine is running. Always be sure the gasoline container and sweeper are electrically
connected before pouring gasoline. This can easily be done by providing an insulated wire (permanently attached
to container) with a battery clip on the other end.
3. Check engine crankcase oil level. Although properly lubricated at the factory, check before starting the
engine. Nospecial break in oil is used and recommended number of operating hours before the initial oil
change is the same as normal. See Maintenance.
4. Check radiator coolant level. Permanent type antifreeze is added at the factory to provide protec-
tion to approximately -35°F (37°C). To retain this protection level, always add ½ part water to ½part
antifreeze.
5. Checkoillevelin the hydraulic reservoir located at the drivers side of the machine beside theengine. The
oil fill level should be halfway on sight glass. If oil is needed, add Standard, 30 weight, non-detergent motor
oil. Afterthe first 50 operating hours, service must be performed on your engine toensurefuturehigh
performanceand trouble free operation. See Maintenance.

NOTE
After the first 35 operating hours, service must be performed on your engine to ensure future high performance
and trouble free operation. See Maintenance.

*Uncratethe machine and carefully removefromskid to prevent damage.
*TheSMART 2000 machines that are shippedwithoutbatterieshave the (+) positive drive motor lead
disconnected.
*Open the battery compartment and connect the (+) positive motor lead to the top terminal post
(the wire “P” is also attached to it). Tighten the terminal nut.
*Install the scrub brushes.
*Checkthe oil level in the hydraulic reservoir
*Installbatteriesasfollows(ifnot included):
1. Turn the key to the “OFF” position.
2. RaisetheFrontCovertotheopenposition.
3. Use a battery lifting device with a 2500 lbs. (1150 Kg) capacity hoist to lift the battery. Set up the battery
tray in the center position. Make sure the size of the battery fits into the tray prior to installation
(20.25W x 38.50 x 31.00 L).
4. Using the lifting device, lower the 36 volt battery into the battery tray directly in front of the
driver’scompartment. Orient the cables & plug them in as required.
5. Plugthe polarized connector from the battery into the 36 volt plug provided.
WARNING
Hydrogen gas is formed during the charging operation and is explosive! Only charge batteries in a well ventilated
area with the lid open. Avoid any open flame or electrical sparks. Pulling out the charger plug with the timer on
will cause an arc and must be avoided.

KEY SWITCH (See Figure 4)
The keyed ignition switch is located on the instrument panel
totheright of the broom lever.
The“OFF”position (O position) will shut off the engine. The
IGN/ONposition (I position) provides powertoallmachine
systems and accessories. The “START” position (one
positionclockwiseofIposition)ismomentary and provides
powerto the startermotor.
NOTE
To reengage, the key must be returned to the “OFF” position.
HOUR METER (See Figure 5)
Thehour meter is located on the instrumentpanel below the
fuelgauge (gas version), below the batteryconditionmeter
(batteryversion). The meter is activated when the key
switch is placed in the ignition position. The meter
indicates the actual “run” time of the machine. The meter
canbe used to determine when maintenance should be
doneon the machine.

BATTERYCONDITION METER (See Figure 6)
The battery condition meter is located on the right side of
the instrument panel. The condition meter indicates the
levelof charge in the batteries (inspect underload). The
batteriesaresufficiently charged when the needle stays in
thegreenarea on the gauge while the machine is being
operated.
Chargethe batteries when the needle drops into the red
zonewhileoperating the machine. Do not operate the
machine if the needle stays in the red area.
BATTERYCONDITION LIGHT (See Figure 7)
The meter shows the condition of the battery, while the
machineisrunning,underload. Whenthebattery voltage
fallsbelow 31-32 volts for longer than 2-3 seconds the low
voltagelight will come on and the Brush/Water solenoids
will be shut off automatically. This is a permanent lockout
untilthepoweristurnedofftomodule. Thelowvoltage
lock out can be reset almost immediately by turning off all
powertothemodulefor3-5seconds.Inapermanentlow
battery condition, the machine can be functional only for
one minute periods an then only by turning the ignition off
andon.
SEAT POSITION ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 8)
Theseatpositionadjustment lever is located on the front
of the seat to the left. The lever is spring loaded to the
“LOCK”position.
To adjust the seat, push the lever to the “RIGHT” and
move the seat to the desired position. Then release the
leverto “LOCK” the seat into place.

FILTER SHAKER SWITCH (See Figure 9)
The filter shaker switch is located on the top left corner of
the instrument panel . By pressing and holding in the
lower part of the switch, it will activate the filter shaker
motors for 20 to 30 seconds. Upon releasing the switch,
it will return to the off (middle) position.
TheImpeller fan will stop when the filter shaker has been
activated. Thefilter shaker will only operate with the
hopperin the “DOWN” position.
DUST CONTROL SWITCH (See Figure 9)
The Dust Control Switch located on the top left corner of
the instrument panel.To turn on the dust control system
for“NORMAL” sweeping, press in the upper portion ofthe
switch. To turn off the dust control system for sweeping in
wet conditions, return the switch to the middle position
(wetsweep bypass). This will prevent the filter from being
damagedby water pickup while sweeping.
SIDE BROOM and MAIN BROOM SWITCH (See
Figure 10)
The Side and Main Broom Switch is located to the right of
the steering column. By pressing in the upper portion of
the switch, the side and main broom are raised and
turned off. To lower and turn on both brooms, press the
lowerportionoftheswitch.
MAIN BROOMADJUSTMENT (See Figure 11)
Themain broom adjustment knob for changing thesweep
height to compensate for broom wear, is located in front
of the machine to the right of the filter. Turning the knob to
theleft(counterclockwise)willlowerthemainbroom.
SIDE BROOMADJUSTMENT (See figure 11)
Theside broom adjustment knob for changing the sweep
heighttocompensateforbroom wear, is located in front
of the machine to the right of the filter. Turning the knob to
theleft(counterclockwise) will lower the side broom.

SCRUB DECK SWITCH (See Figure 12)
The scrub deck switch is located on the instrument panel
to the left of the solution control knob. Pressing in the
upperportion of th switch raises the scrub deck and turns
the brush. In the middle position, the scrub deck lowers
to the normal down position. Pressing the lower portion of
the switch lowers the scrub deck to the heavy down
position.
Inthethirdposition,ScrubDeckHeavy, additional
downwardpressure is applied. This will help for extremely
dirtysurfaces.
NOTE
Lowering the scrub deck does not turn on the brushes. The
brushes turn on automatically when the machine moves in
the forward or reverse direction.
SQUEEGEE SWITCH (See Figure 13)
The squeegee blade switch is located on the console to
theleftof the steering wheel.Pressing the lower portion of
the switch will lower the squeegee and activate the
squeegeevacuum. Pressing the upper portionofthe
switchwillturnoffthesqueegeevacuumandraisethe
squeegee.
In the middle position the switch will raise the squeegee.
Inthis position the vacuum remains on to allow vacuuming
the water that is left in the squeegee recovery hose. This
preventswater from dripping onthefloor with the
squeegee“UP.”
Ifthesqueegeeisloweredandthedirectionofthe
machineis reverse (activated by the FWD/REV pedal) the

SOLUTIONS CONTROL KNOB (See Figure 14)
The solution control knob is located to the left hand side of
thesteering wheel. Turning the knob counterclockwise will
increasethe flow of solution and water.Thefartherthe
solutioncontrol knob is turned the heavier the flow of water
and solution will be. Turning the knob counterclockwise
will decrease the flow of the water and solution. To turn
the water and solution off turn the knob all the way
counterclockwise.
NOTE
For best results, discontinue application of solution
10 feet before stopping or making a 90° or 180° turn.
