SAFETY

GROUTHOG 86038000 05/17/07 3

INSPECTION

Please carefully unpack and inspect your

GROUTHOG for shipping damage. Each unit is

operated and thorougly inspected before shipment,

and any damaged is the responsibliltiy of the

delivering carrier who should be notified immediately.

ELECTRICAL

The Grouthog is designed to operate on a standard

15 amp, 115 volt, 60 hz, AC household current.

Check that the voltage shown on the serial number

plate is suitable for the supply available. Voltages

below 105 volts or above 125 volts could cause

damage to the motor.

* 230/250 volt 50 hz models are available.

NOTE: The GROUTHOG is equipped with a safety

relay switching system that prevents accidental motor

start-up. If the power cord is unplugged during use,

the machine will not start when reconnected, until the

the ‘ON’ switch is depressed.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This applicance must be grounded. If it should

malfunction or break down, grounding provides a

path of least resistance for electric current to reduce

the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped

with a cord having an equipment-grounding

conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be

inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of

the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of

electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician

or service person if you are in doubt as to

whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not

modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it

will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt

circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the

plug in “Fig. A” below. A temporary adaptor that

looks like the adaptor in “Fig. C” below may be used

to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown

in “Fig. B” below, if properly grounded outlet is not

available. The temporay adaptor should be used

only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be

installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored

rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adaptor

must be connected to a permanent ground such as a

properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the

adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal

screw.

To avoid electrical

shock, use indoors only.

EXTENSION CORDS

If an extension cord is used, the wire size must be at

least one size larger than the power cord on the

machine and should be limited to 50 feet in length.

Extension cord must be three wire grounded. The

machine is equipped with a 18/3-40’ power cord.

EQUIPMENT SETUP

NOTE: Attach stain relief/cord retainer to the power

cord.

1. Make a loop in power cord

approximately 18” from main

housing.

2. Slide cord loop through slot in

retainer arm. Pull slack cord

back though slot to secure.

OPERATION

GROUTHOG 86038000 05/17/07

SELECT THE RIGHT CHEMICAL FOR THE JOB:

1. For greasy or oily soil – Use a heavy-duty

degreaser.

2. For sealer or old wax - Use a heavy-duty

stripper.

3. For soap residue and lime build-up – Use a mild

acidic cleaner.

4. For routine maintenance – Use an all-purpose

cleaner.

Consult your Windsor

dealer for proper

chemicals. Always follow directions on the

container of the chemical being used.

SELECT THE RIGHT BRUSH FOR THE JOB:

1. For routine maintenance use the Universal

STANDARD Brush.

2. For cleaning groutlines use the Universal

AGRESSOR Brush.

CLEANING PROCEDURE

1. Remove trash receptacles, etc., from the area to

be cleaned.

2. Sweep or dust mop the floor.

3. Remove gum, labels or other debris from the

surface with a scraper.

4. Apply the pre-mixed solution generously with a

wet mop (or use optional tank) to a section of the

floor. Let solution stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Do

not allow solution to dry on the floor.

5. Plug the power cord of the machine into a

properly grounded outlet.

6. Adjust handle to a comfortable height.

7. Depress the “ON” switch to start machine.

(Depress the “OFF” switch to stop machine.)

The brush-drive motor is

thermally protected and

should an overload condition occur causing the

motor to stop, the machine will not start until the

“ON” switch is depressed.

8. Start cleaning at the farthest corner and work

toward the door. For best results, pull machine

backwards at a steady pace.

9. Keep the machine moving to avoid possible

damage to the grout.

10. Use a bristle hand brush to clean inside corners

and small areas not accessible by machine.

11. After scrubbing, rinse floor with clean water. Use

a wet vacuum to pick up loosened dirt an

solution.

12. Groutlines will appear dark at first, but will lighten

after they dry.

MAINTENANCE

GROUTHOG 86038000 05/17/07 5

Do not overheat block as

this will damage the bearing.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

1. Before storing the machine, clean exterior.

Remove brush and rinse clean with hot water.

2. Periodically inspect electrical cable and

connections. Because the cable will lie on wet,

abrasive floors, the cable must be well insulated.

If the insulation is broken or frayed, repair or

replace immediately.

3. Remove wheels periodically and apply silicone

lubricant to the axle.

SERVICING THE GROUTHOG

Always disconnect the

power cord from electrical

source before making repairs or adjustments.

BRUSH REMOVAL

1. Place handle in upright position. Tilt machine

back with handle resting on floor.

2. Loosen Knob Assembly (item 20) holding the left

bearing block (item 29).

3. Remove bearing block from the frame and brush

core.

4. Remove brush (item 33) from the right bearing

block (item 38). When re-installing the brush,

make sure that the guide pins (item 30) on both

ends are properly aligned with the holes in the

brush core and the bearing block (items 29) is

correctly seated.

BELT REPLACEMENT

1. Remove main cover (item 73 held on by (4)

screws). Remove bottom belt guard (item 34

held on by (2) screws).

2. Using an allen wrench, remove the screw holding

the right bearing block (item 56).

3. Remove bearing block along with the old belt.

Replace belt and bearing block. Check belt for

proper tension and alignment (see Motor

Replacement for belt adjustment).

BEARING REPLACEMENT

Using a small torch, heat the aluminum bearing block

just enough to allow the bearing and shaft (items 31

and 32, respectively) to be removed.

Use a bearing puller to remove old bearing. When

replacing bearing, use a socket or metal sleeve just

large enough to slip over the shaft and still contact

the inner bearing race. Use an arbor press or vise to

press new bearings on shaft. Re-heat aluminum

block just enough to allow re-assembly of bearing

and shaft.

MOTOR REPLACEMENT

1. Remove motor cover (item 73 held on by (4)

screws).

2. Remove (4) screws holding motor (item 60).

Disconnect motor lead and remove motor.

3. When re-installing the motor use a straight edge

to realign pulleys. A screw driver can be used to

adjust tension.

4. NOTE: Belt should be adjusted to snug fit to

prevent slipping. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
