MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance is critical to ensure proper machine
operation and cleaning performance. Perform all
maintenance procedures as follows:
Always unplug machine before performing any
maintenance. See front page for warnings.
Daily Maintenance
 Remove pad driver or brush from the machine. Rinse
and allow to air dry. Failure to remove the pad driver or
brush may cause damage to the pad or brush, causing
the machine to wobble or vibrate excessively.
 If the machine is equipped with a handle mounted
solution tank, empty the tank and rinse.
 Wipe off all of the plated and polished areas with a clean
cloth.
 Check the cord for any breaks in the wire. Breaks
would most likely occur near the plug and near the
handle. Also check the ground pin for breakage. If any
breaks are found, the cord should be replaced
immediately.
 Inspect the handle tube and handle clamp mechanism
for wear, damage, obstructions or build-up that may
hinder easy movement of the handle. If the handle will
not move with the handle lock in the up position, do not
force movement. Contact an NSS authorized service
center.
 Check the dead man switch and throttle levers for
proper action.
Monthly Maintenance
 Lubricate the tube handle clamp area monthly with
a thin film of grease to allow ease of adjustment.
 Check the wheels for wear or damage. Replace if
needed.
 Apply a small amount of spray lubricant to the
axle. This will allow the wheels to roll freely.
 Check for loose bolts that hold the motor and
gearbox to the base of the machine. Tighten if
needed.
 Inspect the motor for accumulation of dirt in the
vents of the motor. If vents are blocked the motor
will over heat and fail. Clean out the dirt with a
vacuum or with forced air.
 Check the Lock Lever to ensure it securely locks
to the handle tube. If the clamp force is
insufficient to keep the handle from moving,
perform the Lock Lever Adjustment as follows:
o Tighten the nut opposite side of the lever.
Yearly Maintenance (Standard Speed Machine)
Disassemble the top of the motor to inspect the
"stationary switch" for electrical pitting and carbon
build-up. Clean or replace stationary switch as
needed.
Yearly Maintenance (Dual Speed Machine)
Disassemble the top of the motor to inspect the
carbon brushes for wear. Replace carbon brushes
when they measure less than ½" [12.7mm] long.
