1) Properly disconnect the extension cord or the
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER from the power
source.
2) To place the operator handle in the work position,
move the handle upright so that the ball-detent pins
can be inserted through the operator handle and main
frame. Determine the ball-detent pins are inserted
through the operator handle and main frame to fully
expose the ball detent. FIGURE 9.

the operator handle to the main frame can result in
an unstable platform configuration. An unstable
platform configuration can result in property
damage and/or personal injury.
4) Tilt the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER back until
the operator handle comes in contact with the surface.
The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER may not be in a
stable position in this configuration. To minimize the
possibility of property damage a nd/or personal injury,
properly secure an appropriate weight to the handle
for added stability. Other means can also be utilized to
support the frame and provide proper machine
stability. Appropriate wheel chocks are also
recommended. FIGURE 11.

SCRAPER WITH THE OPERATOR HANDLE TILTED
BACK IN THE SERVICE POSITION. IF THE FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER IS NOT POSITIONED IN A
STABLE CONFIGURATION, WITH ADEQUATE
