Safety Information
1.2 General information
• The scrubber drier fulfills all the ap-
plicable safety and health require-
ments stipulated in the EC directives
with regard to its planning, construc-
tional design and final construction
as introduced by us onto the market.
In the case of modifications to the ve-
hicle not approved by us, the EC
Declaration of Conformity enclosed
in this operating manual loses its va-
lidity.
• In addition to the information provid-
ed in this operating manual, all the
legally applicable health and safety
provisions must be observed.

observe all the information during
work.
• The vehicle may only be operated,
maintained and repaired by persons
trained by PowerBoss or authorized
to do so by PowerBoss.
• Particular attention should be paidto
the information regarding safety.
Technical expertise is the key to pre-
venting errors when operating the
equipmentandensuringtrouble-free
operation.
• The operating manual must always
be kept at the operating location of
the vehicle and, as a result, should
be kept in a safe place on the vehi-
cle.
• Iftheequipmentis soldorrentedout,
these documents should be trans-
ferred to the new owner/operator.
The transfer should be confirmed!
• The warning labels attached to the
equipment provide important infor-
mation concerning safe operation.
Labels which are illegible or missing
must be replaced.

roof”) in areas in which the driver is
at risk of being hit by falling objects
(e.g.warehouses).Contactthe trade
association responsible for you as to
whether obligations exist in this re-
spect.
• The scrubber drier must be subject-
ed to an inspection in respect of its
operationally safe condition at least
once a year by an authorized techni-
cal expert. The results of the inspec-
tion must be documented in writing
and kept safe at least until the next
inspection.
• Floor cleaning machines may only
be operated by suitable personnel
who have been trained to operate
the equipment, have proven their ca-
pability to operate the vehicle to the

charged by him to operate the vehi-
cle.
• Before starting work, operating per-
sonnel must be fully familiar with all
adjustment, operating and control el-
ements as well as their respective
function! It is too late to do this when
the vehicle is actually in operation!
• The warning labels attached to the
scrubber drier provide important in-
formationconcerningsafeoperation.
• Wet floors are a potential risk for slip-
ping! Ensure to provide the corre-
sponding information and warning
signs.
• If the floor is excessively wet, check
the vehicle for leaks and that the
sealing strips are in a good condi-
tion. If the sealing strips are dam-
aged, change them immediately.

Starting Up
2Starting Up
Pay attention to persons in the
vicinity of the vehicle when
completing any work.
2.1 Instruction
Operators must receive instruction be-
fore the vehicle is put into service. Only
technicians from your local authorized
PowerBoss dealer are allowed to pro-
vide initial instruction on the vehicle.
The manufacturing plant will notify the
dealer immediately after delivering the
vehicle and the dealer will contact you
to arrange a date.
2.2 Initial battery charge
An initial battery charge must be per-
formed on the batteries in order for
them to provide an optimum perfor-
mance and service life. A battery char-
ger is available which is specially adapt-
ed to the batteries.
Only use batteries and char-
gers recommended by us. The
full terms of warranty can only
be accepted when these units
are used.
Before starting the vehicle up
for the first time, the batteries
to be used must be fully
charged, properly, by imple-
menting the initial battery
charge routine. PowerBoss as-
sumes no liability for damage
to the battery caused by a fault
whenthebatteryischarged for
the first time.
The seat console must be piv-
oted open during the battery
charging process to prevent
the development of explosive
oxyhydrogen!
Only use the original charger!
Pay attention that the insula-
tion is not initially damaged
and not damaged during the
charging process. The cable
must not rub against anything.
Do not use the charger if the in-
sulation is damaged.
Do not inhale battery gases.
Please pay attention to the operating
manual provided with the charging unit
as well as the manual from the battery
manufacturer. Powering up the batter-
ies is described in such detail in the
manufacturer's documents, further in-
formation on the subject is considered
unnecessary for this manual.

Starting Up
2.3 Prior to starting up for the
first time
The following work must be completed
before starting the vehicle up for the
first time:
2.3.1 Installing brushes and pads
At the factory, a water retaining ring
(Fig. 4/1) is fitted to the brushes which
reduces water consumption consider-
ably during scrubbing.
Fig. 4
Refer to Section 4 for the brushes avail-
able.
Switch off the scrubbing unit,
set the key switch to position 0
and remove the key.
Installing the brushes
The brush locks, supplied loose in the
