HOW THIS MACHINE WORKS
86037770 CHARIOT INTERIM 11/18/09
3-3
The Chariot iCapsol is a battery powered, self-
propelled Carpet Maintainer intended for commercial
use. The machine is designed to maintain your
carpet using the iCapsol Encapsulating Interim
Carpet Cleaning Process. By using the iCapsol
Carpet Maintainer in conjunction with Windsor Red
Carpet iCapsol Encapsulating Interim Cleaning
(86952260, PRV NO. W450-4) or iCapsol
Encapsulating Interim Cleaning with Carpet
Protection (86952270, PRV NO. W455-4) chemical
solution, you can perform a regular light cleaning
and grooming of your carpet very quickly, and have
the carpet dry and ready for traffic within 30 minutes.
The machine's primary systems are the solution
system, scrub system, and operator control system.
The function of the solution system is to store water
and iCapsol Encapsulating Interim Cleaning
chemical; mix them proportionally and deliver
cleaning solution to the spray jets. The solution
system consist of the solution tank, strainer, pump,
selector valve, injector, shut-off valve, spray jets and
controls. The solution tank stores water until it is
delivered through the strainer and pump to the
injector and spray jets. The strainer protects the
pump from debris. The selector valve allows the
operator to flush clean water (from the solution tank)
through the injector system to keep it clean. The
injector siphons iCapsol Encapsulating Interim
Cleaning at an 8oz/gallon rate (1:16 ratio).
The shut-off valve automatically prevents solution
flow unless the scrub brushes are turned on and the
machine is being propelled forward. The solution
pump switch controls the cleaning solution flow to
the spray jets.
The function of the scrub system is to scrub the
carpet, mix the iCapsol Encapsulating Interim
Cleaning solution with the soil so as to encapsulate
it, and lift and groom the carpet pile. The scrub
system consist of two cylindrical brushes, motors,
hopper, lift actuator, and controls. The brushes
scrub the carpet as the motors drive the brushes.
The counter-rotating action of the brushes picks up
debris and throws it into a removable hopper. The
actuator switch controls the lift actuator and brush
motors to lower the deck and turn the motors on, or
raise the deck and turn the motors off. The brush
motors will automatically turn off when the throttle
pedal is in neutral.
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, speed control switch,
drive reset switch, emergency stop/brake switch,
steering wheel, propel controller, drive wheel and
operator presence pedal,prior to Serial Number
(10*). 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 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.

86037770 CHARIOT INTERIM 02/27/07 3-12
FILLING SOLUTION TANK
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine
and remove key.
1. Turn the machine power off.
2. Remove solution cover.
3. Fill the solution tank with clean water. The
solution tank capacity filled to fill inlet is 16
gallons (60 liters). The water must not be hotter
than 140°F (60°C) to prevent damage to the
tank.
4. Replace solution tank cover.
Flammable materials
can cause an
explosion or fire. Do not use flammable
materials in the tanks.
NORMAL SCRUBBING
Plan the scrubbing pattern in advance.
For efficient operation, the runs should be the
longest possible without turning, stopping, or raising
or lowering scrub deck. The longest track is around
the perimeter of the area to be cleaned and a
collapsing rectangle pattern is most efficient.
In order to achieve the best possible results, the
area which is to be cleaned should be swept before
scrubbing. Large debris, strings and wire must be
removed to prevent being caught in brushes.
If the machine is allowed to stand in neutral with the
scrub deck down for more than 2 seconds, the
solutions flow stops and brush motors stop. When
forward travel is resumed, the solution flow and the
scrub brush motors will continue. Overlap the brush
path and avoid transporting over previously cleaned
areas.
