SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Hazard Level Explanation or Description of Hazard Level
Failure to follow safety instructions labeled could result in severe
injury or death to the machine operator or others.
could result in injury to
the machine operator or others. Also, machine or property damage could
occur.
Failure to follow safety instructions labeled could result in damage
to the machine or other property.
This manual contains important information about your
machine. Read and understand all instructions before
operating the machine. Failure to read and follow the
instructions could result in injury to the person operating the
machine or injury to others. Damage to the machine or other
property could occur if instructions are not followed.
Do not operate this machine around any solvents, thinners, or other
flammable liquids or materials. Electrical sparks can cause a fire or even an
explosion.
Do not smoke around the machine. Also, keep all sparks and flames away
from the batteries. The batteries generate gases that can cause an
explosion.
Special care needs to be used when working on or near the batteries. Wear
eye protection. Do not lay tools on batteries, as they may short out battery
terminals. Do not wear metal jewelry, as it may short out battery terminals.
Charging batteries can be dangerous. Be aware that the battery charger
may have a relatively low voltage output, but the current output is very high
and therefore dangerous. Do not operate the charger if any parts of the
charger or charger cords are damaged. Do not stand on a wet floor when
connecting or disconnecting charger to the power outlet or to the
machine.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Battery acid is dangerous. Wear eye and face protection, hand protection,
and body protection when working on and around batteries. If you get acid
on your skin, wash off immediately. If you get acid on your clothing, remove
clothing and wash any skin that was in contact with the clothing. Baking
soda mixed with water will help to neutralize the acid on your skin.
The machine is very heavy, so be very careful when loading, transporting,
and unloading the machine.
Keep all body parts, clothing, and objects away from moving parts.
Operate machine from the rear, not from the side.
Disconnect a wire to the batteries before working on the machine.
Do not operate machine with charger plugged in.
Do not operate machine with any parts damaged or missing.
Do not operate close to stairs, loading docks, or other drop-offs. Do not park
machine in such a manner that it could roll, forward or backward, off a
drop-off.
Authorized personnel must perform maintenance and repairs. Do not alter or
modify the machine, unless authorized by the manufacturer.
Do not expose the electrical components to water or excessive moisture.
Always put caution signs around the areas that are being cleaned.
Do not use machine as a “ladder”. Do not use machine as a “forklift” to
push stuff around. Do not ride or let anyone ride on the machine.
Your machine warranty may be voided if parts other than PowerBuff parts
are used.

Procedures for Loading, Transporting, and Unloading
Battery Burnisher
The machine is very heavy, so be very careful when loading,
transporting, and unloading the machine. Use at least two
people to load or unload the machine.
xLoading Procedure Using a Ramp
oIt is not recommended that the battery burnisher be loaded using a
ramp with an incline of more than 7 degrees. The machine is not
self-propelled and therefore it is not able to assist itself up a ramp.
It is too heavy to manually push up a steep incline.
oIf you must load with a ramp, the incline must be no more than 7
degrees. (This would permit a height of no more than one foot for
an 8-foot ramp).
oRamp must be secured to vehicle, and be clean and dry.
oMachine must be pushed or pulled straight up the ramp and never
at an angle.
xLoading Procedure Using a Lift Gate
oLift gate must have ample capacity to lift the burnisher.
oWheels must be firmly chocked to prevent burnisher from rolling off
the lift gate.
xSecuring Battery Burnisher
oBurnisher must be secured, so that it will not roll or turn over. Use
chocks and tie downs to secure.
oPlease be aware that the battery burnisher is very heavy, and that a
metal bulkhead in a van may not contain equipment in the event of
an accident. The equipment in a van can be more dangerous than
the accident itself.
xUnloading Procedure Using a Ramp
oRamp must be long enough so that removal can be controlled. Use
same ramp incline restrictions as used for loading burnisher.
oRamp must be secured to vehicle, and be clean and dry.
oMachine must be taken straight down the ramp and never at an
angle.
oDo not let machine run over you or anyone else as it comes off
ramp.
