SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT!!
As soon as your new machine arrives, look it over to be sure it arrived in the
same condition it was shipped in - pristine! Make sure the shipping box is in
good condition and free of gouges and big dents. Once you have determined
there were no freight issues, you will need to do a few simple set-up measures,
BEFORE USING YOUR MACHINE, to ensure maximum efficiency and quality
cleaning for you and your crew:
STEP #1 - YOU MUST PREP YOUR PAD DRIVER:
Your Trinity arrived with a red pad driver that holds your pads in place. The pad
driver bristles need to be ground down approx 1/8” to “rough them up” allowing
better grip and will hold pads better. Do the following steps on a rough surface
like concrete sidewalk or driveway - (NOT smooth garage or wood floors:)
1) Remove machine from shipping crate and all packing wrap
2) Turn machine on.
3) Run machine for approx. 15 minutes on concrete or asphalt surface
until ends are frayed.
STEP #2 - REMOVE PROTECTIVE FILM FROM BELL
The plastic bell is covered with a thin protective plastic film that may be
removed. You may remove this film but we do not remove prior to shipment.
STEP #3 - PRIME YOUR SPRAY PUMP & ADJUST SPRAYER
Push the spray button in to see if your spray jets are releasing a full stream. If
yes, do nothing. If no, while pushing the spray button in and holding it, adjust
one of the white plastic nylon caps at the end of your spray arm, just above the
spray jet. This removes pressure that may have built up during shipment. If it
still isn’t spraying well repeat the above step and loosen the other white cap.
Also, if you notice your jets are not spraying out ahead of your machine enough,
you can manually adjust the brass spray arms a bit by gently pulling them out
toward you a bit to position them as needed.
STEP #4 - MACHINES WITH INVERTERS
Plug in your Trinity. With the inverter set on 50, turn Trinity machine on FIRST.
Next, turn on inverter and slowly turn up to desired action. Average action is
between 50-80 depending on personal preference and the job. See page 9 for
more details on inverter usage.
SET UP YOUR NEW MACHINE

Directions on Switching Actions:
The action of your Trinity is set by
which holes you use to attach your
different heads to the counterbalance.
On the counterbalance is a diagram
of which way the blue strip on the
center plug must be positioned to run
at the desired action.
With the blue strip on the right, you
are in Action 1. With the blue strip
down, you are in Action 2.
With the blue strip on the left, you
are in Action 3. Action 3 is used for
normal cleaning.
To attach your brush or any head,
use the handy head tool with the allen
tool to hold the center plug as you
insert and tighten the two 3/8 bolts into
your counter balance (Pic A).
Put the head tool into one of the
holes of the center plug, push in two
bolts and start tightening by hand,
then use the allen tool to finish
tightening (Pic B).
For machines without an inverter,
normal cleaning is Action 3.
For machines with inverters,
normal cleaning is Action 4.
You should not need to change
machine actions unless cleaning
an area with outdated electric
system or fuses. If your Trinity
is blowing breakers go to
Action 2 first. If you are still
blowing breakers or having
problems, go to Action 1.
Do You Need to
Prime Your Pump?
Shipping, travel, or infrequent
use can cause pressure to
build in the spray system.
This is an easy fix. Simply
squeeze the spray trigger and,
at same time, loosen the clear
nylon cap around the orange
spray tip. May only need to
do one side.
SPRAY SYSTEM
When your machine arrives it should be ready to clean as soon as you put
chemical in the jug. The Trinity machine is a “walk and go” machine. You simply
walk and push the spray button at the same time. The Trinity will easily clean in
one pass unless it is a very high traffic area or an extremely greasy or heavily
soiled carpet. If, for some reason, liquid is not coming out, or barely coming out,
when you push the spray button, you will need to prime your pump.
**See instructions below**
If you have owned your machine awhile and notice the liquid is coming out in a
trickle instead of a spray, your filters probably need cleaning. Simply unscrew
and remove the white nylon caps and spray jets to get to the filters (one filter
behind each spray jet). Use an old toothbrush or toothpick to gently scrub and
remove any attached debris and you should be good to go.
The Trinity spray system consists of: 60 psi pump (not shown), hoses, 2 ½ or 5
gallon jug (depending on machine you own), and actual spray assembly at the
bottom of the machine as pictured below (see picture for listing of parts).
***SPRAY ASSEMBLY MAINTENANCE***
To maintain the life of your pump/spray system, run clear water thru
your system at the end of each work day to wash out residue/chemical
to keep your pump and hoses clean and free of debris.
Do not run any harsh cleaning products thru the pump or any
product containing citric acid (ex. Anomaly). These products will
ruin your pump and damage the hoses.

CHANGING ACTIONS

This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having equipment
grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
***Warranty is voided by removal of grounding pin***

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120- Volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A above. A temporary adapter that looks like
the adapter illustrated in sketch B may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded receptacle is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet sketch A
can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored ear, lug, or the like
extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not
permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.

GENERAL INFORMATION
• If your Trinity has an attached spray system, NEVER run harsh chemicals, or
any chemical containing citric acid, through your pump. It is very hard on the
system and hoses. DOING SO WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY
• At the end of every work day, run clear water through your spray system to
ensure your pump, hoses and all parts stay clean and clear of dirt, debris, and
any left over chemical.
• If you notice your machine rattling or making any unusual noise, with the
machine on, run your hand down the handle and hold the machine where the
problem seems to be coming from. In the area you have pinpointed, check all
screws/bolts, bearings, ect. To be sure everything is tight and that nothing is
broken or missing. Also check the pad driver bearing to be sure there is no
black grease and that the bearing is tight in the O-Ring. If you are still unable
to determine the problem after reading all corresponding topics in this manual,
IMMEDIATELY send us a video (with sound) and the camera going
completely around the machine so we can help determine the problem.
Email the video to [email protected]
REGULAR MAINTENANCE:
• To ensure the life of your machine, tighten nuts and bolts on a regular basis
(weekly if you use your machine daily) in the following areas: handle bolts,
wheel bearings, motor cover and your pad driver
• Keep your red pad driver bristles free of debris to ensure it holds pads well.
Most questions can be answered by going online
to our website at:
www.trinityrenewalsystems.com
and watching one of the many repair and/or
troubleshooting videos available for your convenience.

SPRAY SYSTEM
Q: Just got machine but water won’t come out of spray system
A: Need to prime the pump. Squeeze spray trigger and at same time loosen
the clear nylon cap around the orange spray tip. May only need to do one side.
Q: Only trickle of water OR discolored water coming out of spray system
A: Remove spray tips & filters, get old toothbrush and scrub any residue off/out
of them. Even a bread tie or paper clip can be used to get crusted stuff out.
MACHINE VIBRATION
Q: Machine running roughly with hard vibration
A: With machine on, run hand down machine and let your hand rest where the
roughest vibration is. This helps isolate where the problem lies.
THROWING PADS
Q: Pad driver won’t hold pads or is throwing them
A: Have you ground down your pad driver? How long did you grind it? (See pg 6)
If yes, is your pad driver full of fibers and debris? If yes, clean it out. If no, is
your machine vibrating, making noise or running roughly? If yes, see below.
MACHINE MAKING NOISE OR RUNNING ROUGH
Q: Machine is making loud noises or running really rough
A: With machine on, run your hand down handle and hold the machine where
vibration/roughness is. In the pinpointed area, check all screws/bolts, bearings,
to be sure everything is tight & nothing broken or missing. If you still can’t pinpoint
issue, grab and feel pillow block bearings (see pg. 14). If machine stops making
noise or vibrating as you hold them, they are the problem. If not, does vibration
seem to be coming from pad driver? If yes, is pad driver center assembly close
to/over 2 years old? If yes, you probably need a new one. If not, check the pad
driver to be sure there is no black grease and the bearing is tight in the Oring
(See pg 14). If you are still unable to pinpoint problem, get as close to the area as
possible and take a video of the area with the sound on and email to us.
PAD DRIVER SEEMS LOOSE
Q: Pad driver with red bristles seems to be loose and/or wobbly
A: First make sure all bolts are tight and bearings are tight in the Oring. Next
check pad driver bearing to be sure there is no black grease and nothing looks
broken or missing. You probably need at least a new bearing or an entire Oring
assembly. If you aren’t sure, email us a video while you move the pad driver
around so we can help diagnose the problem. (see pg 14 for parts)
MACHINE KEEPS BLOWING BREAKERS
Q: Every time I use my machine the breakers/fuses are blowing
A: Common in older homes or buildings with outdated electrical system and/or
fuses. You need to change action of machine. See page 7 for instructions.
