1. Make sure to flush the tanks out completely. To thoroughly flush out any solution chemicals in solution line and valves, refill solution tank with a few gallons of warm clean water and run machine until tank is empty. 2. Open the recovery tank lid to promote air circulation. 3. Raise brushes and squeegee. Checking Battery Specific Gravity: Use a hydrometer to check the battery specific gravity. Checking Gravity A. Hydrometer B. Battery Note: Do not take readings immediately after adding distilled water, if water and acid are not thoroughly mixed, the reading may not be accurate. Check the hydrometer against this chart: Specific Gravity @ 80° F Battery Condition (27°C) 1.265 100% CHARGED 1.225 75% CHARGED 1.190 50% CHARGED 1.155 25% CHARGED 1.120 DISCHARGED Note: if the readings are taken when the battery electrolyte is any temperature other than 80vF (27vC), the reading must be temperature corrected. To find the corrected specific gravity reading when the temperature of the battery electrolyte is other than 80vF (27vC): add (+) to the specific gravity reading 0.004 (4 points), for each 10vF (6vC) above 80v (27vC). Subtract (‐) from the specific reading 0.004 (4 points), for each 10vF (6vC) below 80vF (27vC). Preventative Maintenance Records: CUSTOMER INFORMATION CUSTOMER
