FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF CONTROL BUTTONS:
The controls on the Adgressor – BR850s and BR850CS were designed with one touch operation in mind. For single pass scrubbing the user can
simply depress one switch and all systems on the machine will be ready to go.
For most single-pass scrubbing operations, the operator should only need to use the top three switches on the control panel. These are the Scrub
System Off, Scrub Pressure Decrease, and Scrub Pressure Increase switches.
The scrub system switches can be programmed to operate three different ways. The first method of operation described below is the factory default
setting. See the programming section for details.
Pressure Increase / Decrease Mode (Factory Default)
Scrub Off Switch (B) – Pressing this switch when the unit is in a scrub mode will cause the following to occur:
•
The scrub brushes will turn off and the scrub deck will raise to the up position
•
The solution flow will be stopped
•
The first time that this switch is pressed, the vacuum/squeegee system will NOT be turned off. This is so that any remaining water may be
picked up without having to turn the vacuum back on. If this switch is pressed a second time (pressed after the scrub system has been turned
off) the squeegee will raise and the vacuum will shut of after a 10 second delay.
•
The travel speed limit will return to the transport speed setting
•
The scrub off indicator will be green if the scrub system is off and ready to be activated. The indicator will be off if the scrub system has been
activated. If the scrub system has been turned off and the scrub deck is not up yet, or if the scrub deck is up and there is no weight on the seat,
the indicator will be red. If there is a fault in the scrub system this indicator will flash red.
Scrub Pressure Decrease Switch (D) – If the scrub system is off, pressing this switch will cause the following to occur:
•
The scrub system will be enabled with the scrub pressure set to the last used setting and the scrub deck will be lowered
•
The vacuum system will be enabled and the squeegee will be lowered
•
The solution system will be enabled
•
The travel speed will be limited to the scrub speed setting
•
As soon as the throttle is moved from the neutral position the scrub brushes will start turning and the vacuum will turn on. If the direction is
forward the solution flow will start. If the direction is reverse, the squeegee will raise and the solution flow will be stopped.
•
The scrub pressure decrease indicator will be green if the scrub system is on and the pressure is set at 1 or 2. The indicator will be off if the
scrub system is off or if the scrub pressure is set to maximum. The indicator will be yellow if the scrub system has been enabled but the throttle
is in neutral.
Scrub Pressure Increase Switch (F) – If the scrub system is off, pressing this switch will cause the following to occur:
•
The scrub system will be enabled with the scrub pressure set to the last used setting and the scrub deck will be lowered
•
The vacuum system will be enabled and the squeegee will be lowered
•
The solution system will be enabled
•
The travel speed will be limited to the scrub speed setting
•
As soon as the throttle is moved from the neutral position the scrub brushes will start turning and the vacuum will turn on. If the direction is
forward the solution flow will start. If the direction is reverse, the squeegee will raise and the solution flow will be stopped.
•
The scrub pressure increase indicator will be green if the scrub system is on and the pressure is set at 2 or 3. The indicator will be off if the
scrub system is off or if the scrub pressure is set to minimum. The indicator will be yellow if the scrub system has been enabled but the throttle
is in neutral.

If the heavy scrub pressure is active, pressing this switch will cause the pressure to return to the last used light scrub pressure setting. If the light
scrub pressure is already selected when this switch is pressed, the scrub pressure will increase up to the maximum limit programmed for the light
scrub pressure. The pressure will then roll-over to the minimum setting of 1.
Heavy Scrub Pressure Select Switch – If the scrub system is off, pressing this switch will cause the following to occur:
•
The scrub system will be enabled with the scrub pressure set to the last used heavy pressure setting and the scrub deck will be lowered
•
The vacuum system will be enabled and the squeegee will be lowered
•
The solution system will be enabled
•
The travel speed will be limited to the scrub speed setting
•
As soon as the throttle is moved from the neutral position the scrub brushes will start turning and the vacuum will turn on. If the direction is
forward the solution flow will start. If the direction is reverse, the squeegee will raise and the solution flow will be stopped.
•
The heavy scrub pressure indicator will be green if the scrub system is on and the heavy pressure has been selected. The indicator will be off
if the scrub system is off. The indicator will be yellow if the scrub system has been enabled at the heavy pressure setting but the throttle is in
neutral.
If the light scrub pressure is active, pressing this switch will cause the pressure to return to the last used heavy scrub pressure setting. If the heavy
scrub pressure is already selected when this switch is pressed, the scrub pressure will increase up to the maximum limit programmed for the heavy
scrub pressure. The pressure will then roll-over to the minimum value programmed for the heavy scrub mode.
Wand Switch (I) – This switch is used when an external scrub wand is used. Pressing this switch will turn the vacuum on continuously without
regard to the throttle position. It will also enable the optional solution pump. If the scrub system was on it will be turned off. This includes turning off
the scrub brushes and raising the scrub deck, turning the solution flow off (to the scrub deck) and raising the squeegee. NOTE: automatic shutoff
of the vacuum motor when the recovery tank is full is disabled when the wand is enabled. The float in the recovery tank will still prevent water from
entering the vacuum motor, but the motor will not shut off.
Key Switch (J) – Main power switch
Speed Select Switch (L) – This switch will allow the operator to select the transport speed limit while the scrub system is enabled thereby allowing
scrubbing at a higher rate of speed. This option can be disabled if desired. See the programming section for details.
The transport and scrub speed limits can be programmed using a Curtis handheld programmer. Refer to the Curtis Speed Control manual section
for details.
Horn Switch (N) – This switch will sound the horn as long as the switch is held.
The horn also functions as an automatic back-up alarm when the throttle is moved to the reverse position. The volume of the back-up alarm
is programmable. It can also be programmed to provide an annunciation feature that will sound whenever the machine is in motion. See the
programming section for details.
Vacuum Switch (O) – This switch is used to turn the vacuum system on or off. When the vacuum is on the squeegee will lower (unless the machine
is in reverse) and when the vacuum is off the squeegee will raise. Pressing this switch will alternate between on and off. The vacuum will only turn
on when the throttle is moved from the neutral position. It will remain on for 10 seconds after the throttle returns to neutral.
The vacuum also has an automatic shutoff feature that will turn the vacuum and scrub systems off if the recovery tank becomes full. This feature can
be disabled if desired. See the programming section for details.
Solution Switch (R) - This switch is used to turn the solution system on or off. Pressing this switch when the scrub system has been activated will
alternate between on and off. The solution flow will only turn on when the throttle is moved from the neutral position in the forward direction. The
solution flow will turn off if the throttle returns to neutral or is moved to reverse.
Pressing this switch when the scrub system is off will momentarily turn the solution flow on to allow pre-wetting of the scrub brushes.

DESCRIPTION OF INDICATORS ON THE CONTROL PANEL:
In general, the following guidelines apply to the control panel indicators:
A steady red indicator means that the function is inhibited for some reason. For example, if the scrub system is off and the operator is not on the seat, the scrub
system indicator will be red indicating that the system cannot be turned on until the operator is on the seat.
A flashing red or yellow indicator means that a fault has occurred in the particular system. An example of this would be an over-current fault.
A yellow indicator means that the particular function has been enabled but is not currently on. For example, if a scrub mode is selected and the throttle is in neutral,
the scrub system, vacuum, and solution indicators will all be yellow indicating that the systems are enabled and ready to turn on when the throttle is moved to forward
or reverse.
A green indicator means that the particular system is on.
A flashing green indicator means that the particular system is in a delayed-off condition. An example of this is when a scrub mode is selected and the throttle goes
from forward or reverse to neutral. When this happens the vacuum indicator will flash green indicating that the vacuum is still on but that it will be turning off after
the delay period.

Scrub Off Indicator (A):
•
•
•
•

This indicator will be green if the scrub system is off and ready to be activated.
This indicator will be red if the scrub system has been turned off and the scrub deck is not up yet, or if the scrub deck is up and there is no weight on the
seat.

WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
GENERAL FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
See Figures 1 & 2. An 1100-watt 1.5 HP (permanent magnet) 36V motor/gear transmission combination wheel (M3) unit is used to propel all
machines. A Curtis model 1237 PMC solid state speed controller (A1) regulates (outputs) the variable speed Fwd/Rev wheel drive motor functions.
The controller unit is located to the left of the operator seat, behind the electrical access panel. The potentiometer R1 mounted to the operator’s foot
pedal, inputs to the (A1) controller the machine operator’s desired speed and directional demands.

DRIVE MOTOR SYSTEM CONTROLLER FUNCTION OVERVIEW
See Figure 2. To make the A1 speed controllers internal control circuits operational (power it up) the two switches S1 (key) and S2 (seat) must be
closed. This circuit inputs a positive (+) 36V to the A1 speed controls pin terminal #15 (*KSI). The F2 circuit breaker 70 Amp supplies the positive
high current (load) circuit input to the B+ controller terminal (Blu/Orn wire). The black wire from the negative (-) battery standoff supplies the battery
ground input to the B- terminal for both the control and load circuits.
See Figure 3. Depressing the foot pedal in either Fwd or Rev will move the 5K Ohm (R1) potentiometer shaft off its centered balanced (neutral)
setting of approximately 2500 Ohms. With this pot shaft movement the pot’s resistance value changes which generates a variable voltage signal
(0-5 volts). These control board voltage input signals are what energizes the Fwd & Rev directional relays, which selects the motor polarity and what
also manages switches the battery voltage On and Off (**PWM) that varies the motor speed.
*KSI: Key Switch Input
**PWM: Pulse Width Modulation, also called “chopping” is a technique that switches battery voltage to the motor ON and OFF very quickly, thereby
controlling the speed of the motor.

DRIVE MODE SELECTION OPERATION OVERVIEW
The A1 speed Controller allows operation in two distinct modes: mode 1 (M1) & mode 2 (M2).
Mode 1 (M1) is the transport speed range and is automatically selected when the scrub system is OFF (deck up). This allows maximum variable
vehicle speed operation.
Mode 2 (M2) is the reduced slower scrub speed range and is automatically selected when the scrub mode is ON (deck down).
The operator can over-ride the reduced M2 scrub speed by pressing the dash panel Speed Select Switch (L). This allows the operator to scrub at
the higher M1 transport speed. Note the Indicator Light (M) will be green when the faster transport speed is selected.

THE SPEED SELECTOR CIRCUIT INPUT
The main controller E1 will output a 30-31 volt (approximately) battery positive (B+) signal from the speed limit terminal J4-2 (Brn/Wht wire). This
positive signal connection delivers the required A1 speed control input to pin #11. The controller is now in scrub speed (mode 2) and the speed
control mode select is switched ON. Pressing the dash panel Speed Select Switch (L) its Indicator Light (M) turns ON. This action leaves the
speed control input (pin #11) floating and actively switches it Off, 0 volts (pulling it to B-) changing the output to the transport speed (mode 1).
Note: The maximum machine drive wheel speed setting for the two drive modes 1 & 2 can be changed by using the Curtis handheld programmer.
Reference the Curtis programmer instructions found in the electrical system manual section to change speed settings from their original factory
specifications.

WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
POTENTIOMETER INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT

WARNING!

The adjustment of the potentiometer is to set the drive pedal for a neutral drive motor operation. If the pot is not adjusted properly, the machine will
creep in either FWD or REV.
1 See Figure 8. Install the pot into the Mount Housing (AK) and tighten the attachment nut.
2 Connect loosely together both the Link Rod (AE) to the Pedal (AF), and the Throttle Lever (AJ) to the potentiometer input shaft. Then tighten
only the Link Rod (AE) pedal mounting Hardware (AG). Note: Check the movement of the Foot Pedal (AF) it must move freely in both Fwd and
Rev.
3 See Figure 8 inset. Attach test leads from a volt/ohm meter (set meter on 0x100 scale) to the YEL and VIO wire connection points on the
potentiometer to check it’s total resistance (example 4800 Ohms).
4 Next connect the ohmmeter test leads to the GRA and VIO potentiometer connection points. Then using a small screwdriver, turn the shaft end
on the pot to half the total resistance previously measured. Example: 4800 Ohms divided by 2 = 2400 Ohms. Then without turning the shaft,
tighten the Screw (AI) and Nut (AH) to secure the setting at the Throttle Lever (AJ).
5 Follow steps 1-2 in reverse order (see Potentiometer Removal steps) to finish the installation. Then test-drive the machine for proper speed
and FWD/REV directional control.

DRIVE PEDAL NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT & PEDAL REPLACEMENT
If the drive pedal has been removed or replaced, the neutral position for the pedal will have to be set. Follow the steps below to accomplish this.

WARNING!

Disconnect the machine’s battery pack connector (13) before servicing.
•
Note: See Figures 8 & 9. Before making any adjustments, inspect the Torsion Spring (AL) for defects and the correct positions of both spring
ends (repair or replace).
To Adjust Pedal Spring
1 Loosen the Screw (AM) & Nut (AN), the screw with bushing is positioned between both Fwd & Rev torsion spring ends. Its placement controls
the needed pre-load pressure to eliminate excessive pedal free-play and a balanced spring rate to return the pedal to a centered (neutral)
position.
2 Push the screw back into the pedal frame slot to increase spring tension and eliminate pedal free play. Then tighten the screw & nut being
careful not to pull on the linkage connection to the pot shaft and disturb (move) its neutral setting.
To Replace Pedal or Spring
3 Position the torsion spring ends (A & B) as shown. This is with the bushing and screw not installed.
4 Place the bushing inside the pedal channel pilot it into position using a scratch awl or a pin punch.
5 Then pivot (press) the pedal and insert the screw from the opposite side pushing the guide tool out.
6 Use a screwdriver to tap and pry the bushing back in the pedal slot to increase spring tension.
7 Work the bushing back & forth on both sides of the pedal to obtain equal spacing. Then tighten the screw and nut.
8 A correctly adjusted drive pedal will have minimal amount of free-play when selecting a drive direction.
9 Reconnect the batteries and test the machine to make sure it does not “creep” forward or reverse when the pedal returns to neutral.
10 Service Tip: Also confirm the Hourmeter/Status Display (G) is free of the error code 03 (drive system fault). If error 03 is shown the throttle is
not set properly for the potentiometer and or drive pedal neutral position. Check both again and readjust.

SCRUB BRUSH SYSTEM
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
• Disc Brush System Overview
See Figure 2. The machines Adgressor 2820D-3220D and BR 850S- use the disc type scrub system. A single 1, 1-1/2HP 36V DC permanent
magnet motor is connected at both ends with (2) 90-degree gearboxes that drive the two disc (rotary) brushes. The 3520D – 3820D models use the
disc type scrub system also but with (3) .6HP 36V horizontally mounted DC permanent magnet motor gearbox assemblies.
• Cylindrical Brush System Overview
See Figure 6. The machines Adgressor 2820C, 3220C, 3520C, 3820C and BR 850CS use two cylindrical brushes that counter rotate to sweep up
light debris and scrub at the same time. Each scrub brush is powered on opposing ends by individual 3/4 HP permanent magnet motors attached
to separate poly-V belt/pulley drives.
• General Brush Overview
On all models the scrub deck platform is raised & lowered automatically by a vertically mounted electric lift actuator motor (M1). The operation
of the machine’s scrub functions are activated when the operator selects (presses) either the scrub pressure increase or decrease (mode) panel
buttons. The scrub pad or brush pressure ranges (light & heavy) are independently programmable allowing the operator the choice to vary the
scrubbing effort (pressure) while operating the machine. Note: See the Main Control Board Special Program Options section in this manual for
more detailed operation and instructions to change scrub pressure settings.
See Figure 1. The machine’s main scrub system input and output operating functions are regulated (managed) by the combined membrane switch
display panel and main control board E1. The major scrub system functions are…
• Scrub Brush Motor Run Function
To turn On (energize) the K1 brush motor solenoid either the scrub pressure increase or decrease button (location E1 panel) must be pressed and
the (foot activated) drive pedal moved off its neutral position triggering an output from the R1 directional throttle potentiometer. These two-operator
functions deliver the required E1 control board and A1 speed control circuit inputs.
Detailed Explanation of the scrub motor function
A closed E1 membrane panel switch input (either decrease or increase) enables the E1 microprocessor automatic functions for the brush lift, brush
solenoid, solution solenoid, vacuum solenoid and squeegee lift. The next step is the movement of the foot pedal for the needed R1 throttle output
to the A1 speed controller, which causes either FWD or REV motor action. At the moment of R1 throttle input the A1 controller closes an internal
coil driver and outputs a NEG. 36V signal from pin #7 (wire color Red/Blk) to the E1 J4-10 connection. This input signal causes the controller to
output a NEG. 36V signal from J2 pin #1 (wire Wht/Red) that energizes the K1 brush motor solenoid coil pulling in the high current contactor making
the brush motor(s) turn on (run).
• Scrub Brush Actuator Lift Motor Function
The control board outputs activate (raise and lower) the scrub-deck for installing, removing and controlling the scrub brushes’ selected current load.
The negative (-) brush motor wire is specially designed so that it has a known (specified) resistance value. As brush motor current passes through
the negative wire that is, in effect, a low value resistor, a small voltage is measured across it which is proportional to the motor current. This current
measurement circuit (shunt) is made up of two small diameter sense wires (J4-12 Yel/Vio & J4-8 Blk) and are the inputs used by the control board
to calculate the exact current level of the scrub brush motor(s). Any temperature change to the large (Neg.) motor wire affects its resistance so
the circuit temperature is sensed by a thermistor (*) built into the control board. This allows the controller to provide a level of error correction for
the temperature resistance changes. When the controller senses a current draw out of the desired range it automatically turns on the M1 actuator
motor to raise or lower the scrub deck. This process is on-going in maintaining the operator’s selected scrub motor current load (PA #) to sustain
the desired brush working pressure.
• Low Voltage Cut-Out Function
The purpose of the low voltage cutout function is to help prolong battery life. The main control board E1 is programmed to monitor the machine’s
battery pack voltage to prevent over discharging of the batteries. The brush motors, brush lift actuator and solution solenoid valve will turn OFF
automatically and cease to function when the batteries are discharged to the selected cutout level. The cutout level is adjustable between two
settings. The standard battery type (wet cell) is 31.5 volts (1.75 volts per cell) and maintenance free battery (gel) is 33 volts (1.83 volts per cell).
Note: See the Electrical System for instruction in selecting (setting) the two different thresholds.
* Thermistor: A special semiconductor resistor whose resistance value varies with temperature.
Note: See the “Know Your Machine” section in this manual for a complete explanation for all scrub system operational modes.

SIDE SKIRT MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENT (CYLINDRICAL)
General Overview: The side skirts function is to channel the wastewater to the rear pick-up squeegee, helping contain the water within the machine’s
cleaning path. During normal use the blades will wear in time. The operator will notice a small amount of water leaking out underneath the side
skirts. The skirt height adjustment is automatic on this system using spring tension and movable linkage arms to control the blade pressure. The
side skirt assemblies must move up and down freely for proper operation.
To replace the scrub system side skirts…
•
See Figure 6. Remove the (2) Hairpins (AM) and swing the skirt assemblies open. Remove the (AR) Screws and nuts then remove the skirts
and replace.
To adjust the scrub system side skirts…
Note: The side skirt blade assemblies have two minor adjustments, they are the individual front collar height and the rear blade pressure spring.
See Figure 9. The Stop Collar (AS) is installed on the pivot hinge bolt to help control the front skirt mount bracket’s travel when the scrub deck is
lowered. It limits the front of the blade from folding (curling) under when scrubbing. Thus allowing the blade to hold its shape better, reduce blade
damage and wear.
A limited amount of adjustment for general blade wear and squeegee wiping performance can be made by reinstalling the spring attachment Screw
(AT) into a different mount hole (A, B or C). This change will increase or decrease the spring force (pressure) pulling down on the rear edge of the
skirt blade. Position “C” creates maximum down pressure on the blade and position “A” is minimum pressure.

SOLUTION SYSTEM
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
See Figure 1. The plastic (polyethylene) molded main body structure fulfills three (design) functional uses. They are the platform for the operator’s
seat, mount cavity for the electrical panel and as the storage tank for the machine’s scrubbing solution. The solution tank fill capacity is 42 gallons
(157L). Plumbed into the flow control valve hose outlet is a serviceable solution filter to keep debris from entering the solenoid valve. Also fitted to
the flow control valve is a short flexible drain hose to empty the tank for system maintenance.
The solution system uses (2) valves to stop, start and regulate the amount of solution dispensed onto the floor. Located underneath the right side of
the solution tank two feet back from the front is mounted the electrical solution solenoid valve L1. Its function is to stop and start the solution flow to
the scrub brushes. Located on the operator’s steering column support is the solution lever (tee handle). The lever and connected cable move the
flow control valve arm that regulates solution flow to meet a specific operator’s scrub application.
See Figure 2. The electrical circuit that turns on (energizes) the solenoid coil L1 is activated through the E1 control panels switch buttons (touch
pad). Note: See the Know Your Machine section in this manual for a detailed explanation of the complete solution operation modes.
During normal machine scrubbing the solution system’s Auto Mode is selected and works in conjunction with the (A1) wheel drive speed controller
and the foot pedal (throttle). This input activates the scrub system’s outputs to turn on & off the (L1) solenoid valve. The solution flows to the scrub
brushes any time the manual flow control valve is open, the scrub deck is lowered and the drive pedal is pushed into the forward position. Note:
When the solution on/off button is turned off, no flow can occur regardless of the manual flow control being on, drive pedal activated and the scrub
deck down.

RECOVERY SYSTEM
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
Vacuum / Recovery System General
Dirt and water are lifted off the floor into the recovery tank by airflow, created by a 3-Stage 36V vacuum motor. The wastewater and air enter the
vacuum system at the squeegee tool, through small openings (notches) located in the front squeegee blade. The small openings are the entrance
points for the water and air, and help speed up the airflow producing the suction to lift the wastewater off of the floor. The air and wastewater move
through the squeegee hose at high speed until it reaches the recovery tank. There the air slows down because of the increased volume (large
size) of tank. With the decreased air speed the heavier water falls to the bottom of the recovery tank. Then at the same time the airflow continues
through the tank, shutoff float, vacuum motor and is exhausted out of the vacuum exhaust hose. No wastewater ever actually moves through the
vacuum motor, just working air.
The vacuum system uses a shutoff float to prevent the tank from being overfilled and stops any water from being sucked into the vacuum motor.
The Adgressors / BR 850S & 850SC are equipped with a feature that will automatically shut off the vacuum and scrub systems and display “FULL”
on the hourmeter/status display if the recovery tank becomes filled.

- Negative battery circuit inputs and outputs
Inputs:
•
A main (-) battery ground input for the control board E1 terminal J4 pin #8 wire Blk. This supports the operation of the board’s processing logic

RECOVERY SYSTEM
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

If water flows around the ends of the squeegee tool, instead of being pulled into the tool, the vacuum system is not working properly. When a vacuum
system performs poorly, it is usually because of one of the following problems:
Vacuum Leak(s) – Air flowing into the vacuum system past a bad gasket or leaky hose, damaged tank, or a leaky drain valve. A vacuum leak below
the water line will create turbulence in the recovery tank, causing water to enter the vacuum motor.
Restriction(s) – Anything that blocks the flow of air through the system. Restrictions may also be caused by built-up debris in the squeegee tool,
vacuum hoses, float cage or wherever the airflow is forced to make a sharp turn.
Both leaks and restrictions decrease the quantity of air flowing through the squeegee tool. The air that does go through the squeegee tool moves
slower, so it has less pick-up power.
Vacuum Electrical Components – The vacuum systems major electrical components are monitored by the main controller to detect any system
function failures (error codes). The system components covered are the vacuum motor and vacuum solenoid. Detected error codes from the
main controller are displayed on the hour meter LED display as they occur. Note: Reference the Main Control Board Troubleshooting Guide in the
Electrical System of this manual for specific fault descriptions and service repair actions.

VACUUM / RECOVERY SYSTEM SERVICE MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST

Whenever there is a vacuum problem, it’s best to check over the entire system. Use the checklist below as a guide, to thoroughly check the vacuum
system.
Clean built-up dirt from the inside of the squeegee tool.
Replace the squeegee blades if they are nicked or torn.
Inspect the hose between the squeegee tool and the recovery tank, rinse any built-up dirt from the hose. Replace the hose if it is kinked
or damaged.
Inspect and make sure the gaskets on the recovery tank covers are sealing and not damaged.
Inspect and clean the vacuum motor float cage and vacuum filter.
Make sure that the recovery tank drain valve seals airtight.

MAINTENANCE OF VACUUM FILTER AND FLOAT CAGE

See Figure 3. To inspect and clean the vacuum motor foam filter just lift open the tethered Vac Duct Cover (A). Remove the filter by pulling it out
from the housing opening. Clean the filter by vacuum or washing it out in warm water. Note: The filter must be completely dry before reinstalling.
To inspect the vacuum shut off float just open the right rear recovery tank cover to access the float cage assembly (back center in recovery tank).
The cage openings must be kept free of any debris that can restrict maximum airflow. To keep it clean, wipe off with a rag regularly or remove and
flush with water. The cage is a two piece design and can be snapped apart to separate. Note: Another method of accessing the cage float for
servicing is to remove the (6) (B) Screws and remove the vacuum duct housing (C) from the recovery tank top opening.

SQUEEGEE SYSTEM
SQUEEGEE SYSTEM LIFT MOTOR OVERVIEW
See Figure 2. The squeegee pickup tool is raised and lowered by a 36V actuator motor assembly mounted horizontally in the center rear of the
chassis underneath the recovery tank. The main control board assembly E1 regulates (manages) the machine’s squeegee tool system input and
output operating functions. See the Know Your Machine section in this manual for a detailed description of vacuum/squeegee operation modes.

OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW OF THE SQUEEGEE LIFT MOTOR REVERSE FUNCTION
During normal machine scrubbing the squeegee operates in the auto mode. To prevent squeegee blade damage and excessive wear the squeegee
tool is automatically lifted from the floor any time the machine is operated in reverse. See Figure 1. To get the squeegee tool to lift in reverse the
drive pedal must be moved off its neutral or forward position, which opens the normal closed (36V pos. +) control voltage from the A1 speed control
output pin #16 (Blu/Blk). This sensed loss of the (pos.) pin#16 control voltage signal creates the required E1 board input to the J4 connector pin#4
(Blu/Blk) wire). This then activates an internal relay circuit that outputs the correct voltage polarity for the M2 squeegee lift motor to run a specified
time (output from J3 connector pins #2 & # 3). This raises the squeegee off the floor to the back up position, which is half of the normal distance
observed when in the machine scrub off mode. Moving the drive pedal back to the neutral/forward position closes the A1 throttle forward output and
the E1 control board gains its (+) signal. The J3 connector output reverses the polarity and lowers the tool back onto the floor.

SQUEEGEE LIFT ACTUATOR MOTOR REMOVAL
1

Lower the squeegee tool to the floor and then disconnect the battery pack by pushing in the emergency disconnect lever (13). This procedure
is done to prevent the squeegee mount from automatically raising when the key is turned off.
2 Drain the recovery tank using the recovery tank drain hose.
3 Disconnect the squeegee hose from the squeegee tool and remove the tool from its mount.
4 Open the hinged recovery tank cover and grip the top inside edge of the tank then pull straight up to separate it from the solution tank/seat
platform. Then guide the tank off the rear of the machine to the floor. Important Service Note: Support the bottom of the tank on its left corner
to prevent crushing of the squeegee hose. Don’t pull the tank immediately away from the machine the vacuum motor wiring harness located
on the lower left front corner must be disconnected to complete the separation.
5 See Figure 2. From the back of the machine remove the Retainer Ring (A) securing the lift cable Pin (B) and separate the pin and cable from
the motor drive tube housing and chassis mounts. Note: Don’t lose the two plastic cable spacers positioned in motor drive tube.
6 Locate the wire tie that attaches the motor wiring to the chassis and then disconnect the motor harness.
7 From underneath the machine remove the Hairpin (C) securing the lift motor Pin (D) and disassemble the motor from the chassis mount. Then
pull the motor forward to remove it completely from the machine.
Note: New replacement lift actuator motors do not come with the lift nut pre-adjusted.
Important: After removing the actuator motor and before replacing a new motor or drive nut the IN & OUT limit switches must be set (or checked)
to their correct specifications (see the Electrical System for the Actuator Drive Nut Adjustment instructions).

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
- Use a combination of multiple 2-volt cell units (wired in series) to construct a 36 Volt DC battery pack system.
- Nilfisk-Advance recommended battery pack capacity is a 305 or 395 AH @ 20 Hour Rate deep cycle battery system (six 6V-batteries). Note: The battery pack must
fit the battery compartment size listed in Specifications.

BATTERY CHARGER SPECIFICATIONS
- Use a 36 Volt DC output charger matching the DC battery pack voltage and the input AC line voltage supply being used.
- Always when selecting a battery charger follow the recommendation of the battery supplier to match the proper charger DC output amperage to the amp/hour rating
batteries being installed. This will prevent the battery pack from being over or under charged.
- The recommended 305 AH battery should be matched to a 36V, 20 or 25 Amp charger.
- The recommended 395 AH battery should be matched to a 36V, 36 Amp charger.

INSTALL THE BATTERIES

WARNING!

Use extreme caution when working with batteries. Sulfuric acid in batteries can cause severe injury if allowed to contact the skin or
eyes. Explosive hydrogen gas is vented from inside the batteries through openings in the battery caps. This gas can be ignited by
any electrical arc, spark or flame.
When Servicing Batteries...
•
Remove all jewelry.
•
Do not smoke.
•
Wear chemical goggles, rubber gloves and a protective apron.
•
Work in a well-ventilated area.
•
Do not allow tools to touch more than one battery terminal at a time.

CAUTION!

Electrical components in this machine can be severely damaged if the batteries are not installed and connected properly. Batteries
should be installed by Nilfisk-Advance or by a qualified electrician.
1

Remove the batteries from their shipping crate and carefully inspect them
for cracks or other damage. If damage is evident, contact the carrier that
delivered them or the battery manufacturer to file a damage claim.
2 Turn the Master Key Switch (J) OFF (O) and remove the key.
3 To access the battery compartment tip the operator’s seat forward and set the
prop rod. Remove the battery cables from inside the battery compartment.
4 Your machine comes from the factory with enough battery cables to install six
(6 volt), 305 - 395 Amp hour batteries. Using two people and an appropriate
lifting strap, carefully lift* the batteries into the compartment tray exactly as
shown on machine decal (Figure 1).
5 The terminals on the battery cables are marked “+” for positive and “-“ for
negative. Install the battery cables as shown, with the terminals marked
“+” on the positive battery terminals and the terminals marked “-“ on the
negative terminals. Position the cables so the battery caps can be easily
removed for battery service.
6 Carefully tighten the nut in each battery terminal until the terminal will not
turn on the battery post. Then tighten the nut half an additional turn. Do not
over-tighten the terminals, or they will be very difficult to remove for future
service.
7 Coat the terminals and posts with spray-on battery terminal coating (available
at most auto parts stores).
8 Put one of the black rubber boots over each of the terminals and retain with
supplied tie straps.
9 Connect the battery pack connector to the Machine Battery Connector (22)
and close the operator’s seat platform.
*Note: Removal of the recovery tank can make battery installation easier.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION OF THE BATTERY LOW VOLTAGE CUTOUT FEATURE
All models discussed in this manual are equipped with a low voltage cutout feature to prevent over-discharging of the batteries. When a machine’s
battery pack voltage falls below specifically defined thresholds (voltage settings) the scrub system is automatically shut down. The cutout level is
adjustable. The standard lead acid battery (wet cell) setting is 1.72V per cell and alternate maintenance free battery (gel cell) setting is 1.81V per
cell. The standard setting is factory selected and should be used unless the battery manufacturer specifies the higher cutout voltage.
Special Service Note: On all machines (36V) a minimum recharge voltage of 2.09 volts per cell must be reached to allow the scrub brush and
solution system to (reset) function again. The 36V-battery pack must increase to a 37.6-volt minimum.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BATTERY CONDITION INDICATORS
The Battery Condition Indicator (K) will give an indication of the state of charge of the batteries. The battery condition indicator will retain the
state-of-charge even if the key has been turned off. The state-of-charge indication is reset to full charge when the batteries have been recharged.
It is also possible to choose between two different low voltage thresholds depending on whether maintenance free or standard batteries are being
used (have qualified service engineer perform this selection*). NOTE: The following percentages are based on useable battery capacity not
total battery capacity. Therefore, 100% discharge = 80% of total battery capacity for standard wet cell batteries or 70% of total battery capacity for
maintenance free batteries.

CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Charge the machine’s battery pack each time the machine is used, or when the Battery Condition Indicator (K) is showing red flashing indicator
lights. Note: The machine also uses a special low voltage cutout that inhibits the scrub system see in this manual section the Description of the
Battery Low Voltage Cutout Feature.
To Charge the Batteries...
1 Depress the Battery Disconnect (13).
2 Open the Battery Compartment Cover (16) to provide proper ventilation.
3 Push the connector from the charger into the Battery Connector (22).
4 Follow the instructions on the battery charger.
5 Check the fluid level in all battery cells after charging the batteries. Add distilled water, if necessary, to bring the fluid level up to the bottom of
the filler tubes.

WARNING!

Do not fill the batteries before charging. Only charge batteries in a well-ventilated area. Do not smoke while servicing the batteries.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance of electric vehicle batteries can greatly extend their life. Well-maintained batteries may last up to 3 years, but failure after 1 year
is common if maintenance has been poor.
There are 3 simple rules for good battery maintenance:
•
Maintain Proper Electrolyte Level (Weekly) - Use distilled water in batteries whenever possible. If batteries are discharged, add just enough
water to cover the plates in each cell. If batteries are fully charged, fill each cell to the bottom of the filler tube. Do not over-fill the batteries!
Do not add acid to batteries!
•
Keep the Batteries Charged (Weekly) - Batteries should be charged each time that a machine is used for more than 1 hour. Machine
operators should open the battery compartment cover for charging, to avoid a concentrated build-up of hydrogen gas. Operators should follow
the instructions provided with their specific battery charger, to determine how long the batteries should be charged. Even when a machine is
stored, the batteries should be charged once a month to prevent the batteries from “sulfating”. Almost all battery caps are vented, so there’s
no need to loosen or remove them for charging.
•
Keep the Batteries Clean (Monthly) - Use a damp cloth to wipe dirt from the top of the batteries. Battery terminals must be clean and tight.
If the tops of the batteries are wet after charging, the batteries have probably been over-filled or over-charged. Note: If there is acid on the
batteries, wash the tops of the batteries with a solution of baking soda and water (2) tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water.

BATTERY TESTING
A battery problem is usually recognized by the machine operator, as a decrease in the machine’s running time. This condition is usually caused by
one or more “dead cells” in the battery system that is, one or more cells that is putting out less voltage than the other cells.
Note: Always charge batteries before testing.
There are 2 ways to find a dead cell:
•
Use a hydrometer to check the specific gravity (or “state of charge”) of the fluid in each cell. A dead cell is one that reads 50 points (or more)
lower than the other cells.
•
Use a volt meter to check the voltage of each battery with the scrub and drive motors running. The battery with the dead cell will read 1 or 2
volts lower than the other batteries in the system.
If the batteries in the machine are more than 1 year old, it’s usually best to replace the whole set, rather than replacing just one battery.
The chart below shows the approximate “percent charged” of an electric vehicle battery at various specific gravity values, corrected to 80°F
(26.7°C).

Instructions for Squeegee Lift Actuator Drive Nut Adjustment
1 See Figure 3. Hold onto the Actuator Drive Nut (A) and press the rocker switch to run the drive motor and retract the nut towards the motor
housing (it’s IN limit).
2 Measure the position of the drive nut on the actuator shaft. Manually turn the steel tube to the IN position as shown in the chart.
3 Hold the drive nut then press the adapter cord rocker switch to run the drive motor to the OUT position (wait until the motor stops).
4 Measure the position of the drive nut on the shaft and compare the measurement with the OUT position shown in the chart.
5 When the measurement doesn’t match the dimension shown in the chart it is necessary to remove the Adjuster Cover (B) and adjust the Out
position.
6 To increase the travel of the drive nut, turn the adjuster clockwise. To decrease the travel of the nut, turn the adjuster counter clockwise.
NOTE: Use a 1/2” (13 mm) socket to turn the adjuster. Each click of the adjuster will change the nut travel 1/16 inch (1.6 mm).
7 After each adjustment, hold the drive nut, run the actuator IN & OUT and check both dimensions. After checking that the drive nut limits are
set correctly then replace the adjuster cover. Service Tip Note: Use the above power cord adapter to help position the drive nut (in or out) for
ease in actuator motor installations.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CURTIS CONTROLLER DIAGNOSTICS
Diagnostics Method A: Uses the machine’s control panel hourmeter display and wand switch indicator.

FUNCTION OF THE SPEED CONTROLLER STATUS LIGHT AND DISPLAY
The Curtis 1237 speed control will output a fault code if there is a problem associated with the speed control and wheel drive system. See Figure
6. If a speed control fault occurs, the Hourmeter/Status display (F) will indicate “E 03”. When the E03 is being displayed and detects a fault the
Green Indicator (G) normally the accessory wand indicator light will flash a special error code sequence until the fault is corrected. See “Table 1”
for a description of the fault indications. Service Note: Instructions on how to read the error code status light. Example, OO O = two light flashes,
a short pause, one light flash, a long pause and the code will be repeated. This indicates a fault code 2,1.

FIGURE 6
F
G

Diagnostics Method B: Uses the optional handheld Curtis programmer.

PROGRAMMER DIAGNOSTICS
With a programmer, diagnostics and troubleshooting is more direct than with the LED alone. The programmer presents complete diagnostic
information in plain language, no codes to decipher. Faults are displayed in the Diagnostic Menu, and the status of the controller inputs/outputs is
displayed in the Test Menu.
The following 4-step process is generally used for diagnosing and troubleshooting an inoperative vehicle: (1) visually inspect the vehicle for obvious
problems; (2) diagnose the problem, using the programmer; (3) test the circuitry with the programmer: and (4) correct the problem. Repeat the last
three steps as necessary until the vehicle is operational.
Example: A vehicle that does not operate in “forward” is brought in for repair.
1
2
3
4

Examine the vehicle and its wiring for any obvious problems, such as broken wires or loose connections.
Connect the programmer, put it in diagnostic mode, and read the displayed fault information. In this example, the display shows “No Faults Present”, indicating
that the controller has not detected anything out of the norm.
Put the programmer in test mode, and observe the status of inputs and outputs in the forward direction. In this example, the display shows that the forward
input did not activate when “forward” was selected, which means the problem is either in the electronic throttle or the throttle wiring.
Check or replace the electronic throttle and wiring and repeat the test. If the programmer shows the forward switch closing and the vehicle now drives normally,
the problem has been corrected.

Refer to the Status Fault Codes (Table 1) for suggestions covering a wide range of possible faults.

DIAGNOSTIC HISTORY
The handheld programmer can be used to access the controller’s diagnostic history file. Connect the programmer, press the MORE INFO key, and
then while continuing to hold the MORE INFO key, press the DIAGNOSTICS key. The programmer will read out all the faults that the controller has
experienced since the last time the diagnostic history file was cleared. The faults may be intermittent faults, faults caused by loose wires, or faults
caused by operator errors. Faults such as HPD or over temperature may be caused by operator habits or by overloading.
After a problem has been diagnosed and corrected, clearing the diagnostic history file is advisable. This allows the controller to accumulate a new
file of faults. By checking the new diagnostic history file at a later date, you can readily determine whether the problem was indeed completely
fixed.
To clear the diagnostic history file, go to the Special Program Menu (by pressing and holding the MORE INFO key, and then pressing the PROGRAM
key), scroll through the menu until “Clear Diagnostic History” is the top line in the display, and then press MORE INFO again. The programmer will
prompt you to acknowledge or cancel.
See the CURTIS PROGRAMMER MANUAL 56043101 for more detail on programmer operation.

4. Operation in extreme environments.

*NOTE: A KSI (key switch input) system problem is a specific HPD (high pedal disable) type operational fault, caused by the operator activating
the Fwd/Rev drive pedal before turning on the main key switch or activating the throttle before sitting on the seat. This can be cleared by returning
the operator’s drive pedal to neutral and cycling the key switch OFF and ON.

INSTALLATION CHECKOUT FOR THE CURTIS SPEED CONTROLLER

SAFETY!

The 1237 controller is inherently a high power device. When working around any battery powered vehicle, proper safety precautions
should be taken. These include, but are not limited to: proper training, wearing eye protection, avoiding loose clothing and jewelry, and
using insulated wrenches.
After installing a controller and before operating the vehicle, carefully complete the following checkout procedure. If you find a problem during the
checkout, refer to the DIAGNOSTICS section of this chapter for further information.
The installation checkout can be conducted with or without the handheld programmer. The checkout procedure is easier with a programmer
otherwise observe the Status LED for codes (located on operator panel wand indicator light). The part number of the handheld programmer is
56409441. NOTE: If you have a programmer with a serial number before 2100 you will need to update your programmer. A free upgrade kit is
available, order part number 56409822. Also a different quad 4 pin programmer cable (PN 56409823) is needed to link the programmer to the
controller plug-in port.

WARNING!

Put the vehicle up on blocks to get the drive wheel off the ground before beginning these tests.
Turn the key switch off and make sure that the seat switch is open, and the throttle is in neutral.
Do not stand, or allow anyone else to stand, directly in front of or behind the vehicle during the tests.

Remove electrical panel to access controller then observe LED status light on touch pad operator panel wand indicator light. If a programmer
is available, connect it to the programmer plug-in port.
Sit on the seat and turn the key switch on. The programmer should “power up” with an initial display. If neither happens, check for continuity
in the key switch circuit and controller ground.
If you are using a programmer, put it into the diagnostic mode by pressing the DIAGNOSTICS key. The display should indicate “No Faults
Found”. Note: Before pressing the diagnostics key, wait until model # screen appears, if the throttle is activated prior to this screen appearing
the controller will shut down.
If there is a problem, the LED will flash a diagnostic code and the programmer will display a diagnostic message. If you are conducting the
checkout without a programmer, look up the LED diagnostic code in the DIAGNOSTICS section of this chapter (Table 1).
When the problem has been corrected, it may be necessary to cycle the key or seat switch to clear the fault code.
While sitting on the seat, operate the throttle. The motor should begin to turn in the selected direction. If it does not, verify the wiring to the
controller, and the motor. The motor should run proportionally faster with increasing throttle. If not, refer to the DIAGNOSTICS section of this
chapter (Table 1).
If you are using a programmer, put it into the test mode by pressing the TEST key. Scroll down to observe the status of the forward, reverse
and brake switch. Cycle each switch in turn, observing the programmer. Each input should show the correct state on the programmer.
Take the vehicle off the blocks and drive it in an open area. It should have smooth acceleration and good top speed.

PROGRAMMING VEHICLE SPEED CHANGES
The maximum high-speed M1 (transport) and maximum low speed M2 (scrub) can be changed electronically, using the handheld programmer. To
change a parameter using the programmer, press the PROGRAM key, and scroll down the Program Menu until the desired parameter is the top line
of the display. Press the appropriate CHANGE VALUE key (“up” or “down”) until the desired number is reached. The parameter is now set at the
desired value. All programming occurs in real time. In other words, the parameters can be changed while the vehicle is in operation.
The upper and lower limits of parameters are set at the factory. Some parameters have dependencies on other parameters. When the programmer
is being used to adjust a parameter and a limit is reached, the display will stop changing. To see why the display has stopped changing, press the
MORE INFO key. If the limit is related to another parameter, that information will be displayed; changing the value of the related parameter may
allow the original parameter to be adjusted further. Otherwise, the display simply says “Max Limit” or “Min Limit.”

MAINTENANCE
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the Curtis PMC 1237 controller. No attempt should be made to open the controller. Opening the
controller may damage it and will void the warranty.
However, it is recommended that the controller exterior be cleaned periodically, and if a handheld programmer is available, this periodic cleaning
provides a good opportunity to check the controller’s diagnostic history file.

HANDHELD PROGRAMMER USE
Optional Curtis handheld programmer allows you to program, test and diagnose Curtis controllers. Use of a handheld programmer is described
more fully in the CURTIS PROGRAMMER MANUAL 56043101.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW OF MAIN CONTROL BOARD
The primary function of the main control board E1 is to position the scrubbing brush(s) with respect to the floor surface using a lift actuator motor
to maintain the correct brush pressure and current draw of the brush motor(s). When either the decrease or increase scrub pressure switch is
depressed this will lower the scrub deck to the operating position and by activating the foot pedal start the brush motor. The controller is continuously
monitoring the current to the brush motor and when it senses a current draw out of the desired range it automatically raises or lowers the brush deck
by turning on the brush actuator motor. This process is repeated until the brush motor is shut off. The controller also manages the other supportive
systems such as the squeegee lift, solution on/off, and vacuum motor. Note: See the Know Your Machine system in this manual for a complete
explanation of the machine’s operation.
The secondary function of the main control is to detect any system failures and display an error code on the hour meter display or store it in the main
control board’s recall memory mode. The error code(s) are used to help the serviceperson determine the fault and to quickly guide in repairing a
specific system malfunction. Note: See the Troubleshooting Guide for further information.
An additional special feature of the main control board is to change program settings for a set of specific machine functions. See the Main Control
Board Special Program Options section in this manual for further information.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Any error codes detected by main control board will be displayed on the hour meter LED display as they occur. If more than one-error exists the
display will sequence through the error codes at one-second intervals. The error display will show on the hour meter as the letter E followed by a
two-digit code. EX: E03 would be a drive system fault. When troubleshooting any “Fault Description” noted with a double asterisk (**) follow
the instructions for temporarily disabling the control boards special fault detection program. See the Main Control Board Special Program
Options section in this manual.

Scrub ON/Pressure Decrease Switch (D):
This switch is used to control the output to the scrub deck lift actuator. Pressing and releasing this switch will cycle the actuator output through 4
states. These are:
1 - output off, direction = up
2 - output on, direction = down
3 - output off, direction = down
4 - output on, direction = up
When the output is in state 1, the actuator output is turned off. The scrub pressure decrease indicator should be off. If the indicator is flashing green,
this indicates that the control is sensing current flow through the actuator (shorted output driver, control error). If the scrub pressure decrease switch
was the last switch pressed, it is possible to momentarily activate the actuator output using the horn switch. This can be used to jog the actuator to
allow precise positioning of the actuator. NOTE: the actuator can only move in this situation if it is not at its up limit.
When the output is in state 2, the actuator output is turned on. The scrub pressure decrease indicator should be green or flashing green. The
indicator will be a steady green if the control senses current flow through the actuator. It will flash green if no actuator current flow is sensed (actuator
at limit, open circuit, open output driver). The horn switch has no effect in this state.
When the output is in state 3, the actuator output is turned off. The scrub pressure decrease indicator should be off. If the indicator is flashing green,
this indicates that the control is sensing current flow through the actuator (shorted output driver, control error). If the scrub pressure decrease switch
was the last switch pressed, it is possible to momentarily activate the actuator output using the horn switch. This can be used to jog the actuator to
