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.
SPECIAL NOTES:
The sound pressure level at the operator’s ear was
measured to be 64 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
sound pressure level is below 63 Pa.

HOW THIS MACHINE WORKS
86306300 CHARIOT BURNISHER 11/09/07
3-3
The Chariot is a battery powered, self propelled,
hard floor burnisher intended for commercial use.
The appliance spins a high-speed burnishing pad in
contact with the floor surface to produce a high
luster shine.
The machines primary systems are the burnishing
system, the dust control system and the operator
control system.
The function of the burnishing system is to spin a
high-speed burnishing pad in contact with a floor
surface that has had a burnishable floor finish
applied. The burnishing pad can be lowered to the
floor and raised by the operator, the operator can
also control the pad pressure by use of the control
knob. The burnishing pad will spin only when the
machine is directed to move by the operator.
The function of the dust control system is to collect
the dust that is created during the burnishing
process. It is normal for a portion of the floor finish to
be removed in the form of dust during the process.
While burnishing, air movement is created within the
burnishing head by the spinning pad. The dust that
is also created is entrained in the air stream and
transported to a filter bag where it is collected and
separated from the air stream. The filter bag can be
easily changed without releasing the collected dust.
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
control switch, throttle pedal, operator presence
pedal, speed control switch, drive reset switch,
emergency stop/brake switch, steering wheel, propel
controller, and drive wheel. The directional control
switch signals forward or reverse direction. The
controller interprets signals from the throttle pedal to
command the drive wheel to propel or slow the
machine. The drive reset switch is to make sure the
operator is on platform before machine will propel.
The operator presence pedal is to make sure the
operator keeps both feet safely on platform while
driving. The steering wheel points the drive wheel in
the direction desired by the operator. The parking
brake automatically engages when the operator
steps off the platform. The emergency stop/brake
can be used to hold the machine on slopes.

PRE-RUN MACHINE INSPECTION
Do a pre-run inspection to find possible problems
that could cause poor performance or lost time from
breakdown. Follow the same procedure each time to
avoid missing steps.
NOTE: See maintenance section for pre-run
machine inspection checklist items.
STARTING MACHINE
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.
1. Disconnect the battery charger.
2. Close the cover.
3. Turn or install a new burnishing pad as needed.
4. The operator should be on the pedal platform
with their left foot on the operator presence
pedal. The throttle pedal must be in the neutral
position.
5. Turn the machine power on by turning key
switch clockwise to the “ON” position.
6. Check the position of the Directional Control
Switch to make sure the machine will travel in
the direction intended.
7. Press the Drive Reset Switch.
8. Press lightly on the throttle pedal with right foot.
OPERATING THE MACHINE
1. Lower or raise deck by pressing burnishing head
switch.
2. The pad motor will only run when the burnishing
head is lowered to within 2 inches of the floor.
3. The pad pressure is adjusted using the knob at
right of panel. The operator monitors the amp
draw using the meter located on the control
panel and ensures that the needle remains in
the “blue” operating range.
To prevent possible damage to the floor surface,
always keep the machine moving while the pad
is spinning.
4. When the head is down and the machine is
propelled, the pad motor runs.
5. Return the machine to the battery charger when
the battery light indicator meter indicates
discharged batteries
EMERGENCY STOP PROCEDURES
1. Release the throttle pedal by lifting right foot.
2. Turn machine power off with key switch, by
turning key switch counterclockwise.
3. If an electrical problem is suspected, push in
emergency stop button. This will also engage
the parking brake and cause the machine to
stop immediately.

MACHINE OPERATION
86306300 CHARIOT BURNISHER 11/09/07 3-12
TO BEGIN BURNISHING
When operating the machine around people, pay
close attention for unexpected movement. Use
extra caution around children.
1. Place left foot on operator presence pedal.
Throttle pedal must be in neutral position.
2. Turn machine power on.
3. Check position of Directional Control Switch to
ensure that machine is set to travel in direction
intended.
4. Press the Drive Reset Switch.
NORMAL BURNISHING
Plan the burnishing patern in advance. The longest
track is around the perimeter of the area to be
burnished. For efficient operation, the runs should
be the longest possible without turning, stopping, or
raising or lowering the burnisher head.
In order to achieve the best possible results, the
area which is to burnished should be swept before
burnishing.
