Never put metal parts, such as tools on
batteries to avoid hazards of short-
circuit or deflagration.
Spilled (straight) battery acid must not
get into the se er; neutralize before
draining.
Comply ith local requirements and
regulations imposed by la .
Battery acid is extremely caustic (keep
out of the reach of children). Wear goggles
hen checking the acid level. If splas-
hes of acid gets into your eye, flush ith
tap ater for 15 minutes and see a
doctor right a ay. When handling
batteries, use adequate protective
equipment, e.g. gloves or fingerstalls.
Never use open flames hen handling
batteries, in particular hen checking
the acid density (explosion hazard).

The machine is drip-proof.
Proper maintenance of the machine
ill be a good approach to accident
prevention.
Use adequate tools for maintenance,
servicing and adjustment ork.
As far as aspects of safety are concer-
ned, spare parts at least ill have to
reach the level of genuine parts.
Safety installations, locks and other
safety equipment preventing possible
hazards ill have to be inspected by
an authorized expert before first opera-
tion, and thereafter in regular intervals
( e recommend to perform such in-
spections not less than once a year),
and after modification or important
repair actions.
Safety recommendations
for handling batteries
Refer to detailed instructions issued by
the battery manufacturer. Such instruc-
tions ill have to be accessible to the
operators all the time. Never leave
batteries in lo charge condition, but
recharge as soon as possible. Top
ith distilled ater only. Never top good
cells ith battery acid.
To avoid leakage currents, keep batte-
ries clean and dry, protect against con-
tamination, e.g. metal dust.

Sweeping principle
of the Hakomatic 1100
The Hakomatic 1100 orks by the tan-
dem principle. In the dry area in front
of the scrubber, its optional vacuum
s eeping attachment s eeps garbage
free of dust, thereafter it vigorously
scrubs the floor ( et) ith its scrubber.
A squeegee located under the rear
end of the machine ill suck the dirty
ater into a dirty ater tank.
The Admiral 40works by the
tandem principle. In the dry
area in front of the scrubber, its
optional vacuum sweeping
attachment sweeps debris free
of dust, thereafter it vigorously
scrubs the floor (wet) with its
scrubber. A squeegee located
under the rear end of the
machine will extract the dirty
water into a dirty water
recovery tank.
Sweeping Principle
Of the Admiral 40

Vacuum sweeping attachment
(optional)
Collects garbage in the dry area in
front of the scrubber. Both side brus-
hes s eep the debris into the s eep-
ing brush's path. Fine dust is collected
by a vacuum motor and held back by
a filter. Nothing but clean air ill leave
the machine. The Admiral 40 ith the
vacuum s eeping attachment installed
complies ith CAT U (BIA), vacuum
s eeper and filter are easily accessi-
ble for maintenance.
Scrubber
High cleaning po er by disc-type
brushes; no tools necessary for repla-
cing brushes. Depending on type of
floor and soilage, brush load is adju-
sted electrically. Brush lift automa-
tically interrupts ater supply and
rotation of brushes.
An optional side scrubber is available
for orking close to alls. This side
scrubber is located on the right side of
the machine and is retractable.
Extra-large squeegee
in pendulum-type suspension
High suction po er removes dirty a-
ter even from uneven floor and during
turning. Floor is left dry and ready to
step on. Automatic lift for reverse
travel.
First Operation
First operation of the Admiral 40
should be performed by a represenitive
of your local PowerBoss distributor.
Right a ay after shipping of the macine,
the local distributor is advised and ill get
in touch ith you to make a date for
training.
Battery charge
condition monitor
The Admiral 40 is equipped ith
a charge condition monitor to preclude
poor battery charge conditions. That
charge condition monitor is part of the
electronic system and adjusted by the
factory as required for PzS batteries
(Displayed number: 5).
If different batteries are used, the lo
voltage sender ill have to be set for
such batteries.
Note: The lo voltage sender should
be set by a PowerBoss service center only.
