HOW THE MACHINE WORKS
CUTTER 36V (SCE) 86037030 12/05/06
3-3
The Saber Cutter is a battery powered, self-
propelled, hard floor scrubber intended for
commercial use. The appliance applies a cleaning
solution onto a hard floor, scrubs the floor with
brushes, and then vacuums the soiled water back
into the recovery tank.
The machine's primary systems are the solution
system, scrub system, recovery system, and
directional control system.
The function of the solution system is to store
cleaning solution and deliver it to the scrub system.
The solution system consists of the solution tank,
strainer, valve and controls. The solution tank
stores cleaning solution (water and detergent) until it
is delivered to the scrub system. The strainer
protects the valve from debris. The valve is a
solenoid type valve, which controls the delivery of
cleaning solution to the scrub system. The valve
automatically prevents solution flow unless the scrub
brushes are turned on and the machine is being
propelled. The solution control knob controls the
amount of cleaning solution delivered to the scrub
system by controlling the amount of time the valve is
open.
The function of the scrub system is to scrub the
floor. The scrub system consists of two rotary type
disk scrub brushes, motors, scrub deck skirt, lift
mechanism and controls. The brushes scrub the
floor and the motors drive the brushes. The brush
drive hubs allow the scrub brushes to follow
irregularities and changes in the floor without loosing
contact with floor. The scrub deck skirt controls the
cleaning solution on the floor so that the squeegee
can pick it up. The brush lever is used to raise and
lower the deck.
The function of the recovery system is to vacuum the
soiled water back into the recovery tank. The
recovery system consists of the squeegee, vacuum
motor, float ball filter, recovery tank and controls.
The squeegee wipes the dirty solution off the floor
as the machine moves forward. The vacuum motor
provides suction to draw the dirty solution off the
floor and into the recovery tank. The recovery tank
stores the dirty solution. The float ball filter protects
the vacuum fan from debris and shuts off air going to
the recovery tank when tank is full. When flow of air
is shut off the vacuum motor will continue to run. At
this time the recovery tank must be drained.
The function of the directional control system is to
control the direction and speed of the machine. The
directional control system consists of the propel
control buttons, reverse button, speed control
knob/potentiometer, controller and transaxle. The
propel controls actuate switches which cause the
machine to move forward. For reverse motion
depress the reverse button while depressing one of
the propel controls. The speed control knob actuates
a potentiometer, which signals speed. The
controller interprets the forward/reverse signals from
the switches and the speed signal from the
potentiometer to command the transaxle to propel
the machine in the direction, and at the speed,
desired.
