Preparations
Before starting work, cut the floor covering into strips of about 35 cm.
You cannot work faster if you cut wider strips.
To begin, cut one strip crosswise.
Then lift the floor slightly in order to get the blade underneath it.
We recommend to cut the first strip at right angles to the main
1
working direction. By so doing access to the adjacent strips is

made easier.
Cut the strips smaller if the floor covering is bonded very
securely, e.g. with an epoxy adhesive.
The blades are sharpened by the floor pavement. Therefore the
blade only has to be changed if it is twisted or becomes worn.
The driving wheels are subjected to wear. They have to be
(Pic. 1)
changed after approximately 16 mm (0.6 inch) of the surface
has been worn away.
Otherwise the working angle of the striking apparatus will not be
correct especially critical with cork or foam backed carpets.
5.1 Pull Back
The patented Pull Back system was developed to allow for an
easy pulling back of the Extro Stripper. (Pic. 2)
(Pic. 2)
When you have reached a wall or another obstacle during your
work, simpy pull the handle to lift the driving wheels. The machine
comes to a standstill although the wheels continue to rotate.
If you pull the handle more powerfully, you can pull back the
machine to the place where the next lane is to be stripped off.
If the handle is moved forward again, the driving wheels reach
the floor again and the machine moves forward.
When working, make sure the handle is pressed gently to the
(Pic. 3)
front so that the small transportation rollers are lifted.
5.1.1Locking the Pull Back system
For certain floors, it may be required to lock the Pull Back sys-
tem. Use the two screws in the lifting brackets. (Pic. 2)
Unscrew the screws, press the handle to the front and tighten
the screws through the lifting brackets to the angled clips.
If you pull the handle, the blade is lifted from the floor immediately
without stopping the drive.
