How to troubleshoot a Hillyard TRIDENT EX20 Floor Machine that has no power?
If your Hillyard Floor Machine has no power and nothing runs, there are a few potential causes. First, ensure the cord is properly plugged in. If it is, check the building's circuit breaker and reset it if it has tripped. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it could be a faulty switch or a faulty power cord. In these cases, call for service.
What to do if the brush does not spin on my Hillyard Floor Machine?
If the brush on your Hillyard Floor Machine isn't spinning, start by ensuring the brush switch is turned on and the propel lever is engaged. Check if the brush circuit breaker has tripped and reset it if necessary. If the issue persists, examine the brush belt and replace it if it's broken. If none of these steps work, the brush motor may be faulty, and you should call for service.
Why is the suction poor on my Hillyard TRIDENT EX20 even though the vacuum motor runs?
If the vacuum motor of your Hillyard Floor Machine runs but the suction is poor, the issue could be due to several reasons. Check for debris lodged in the vac shoe and remove it. Inspect the dome gasket for defects or if it's missing, and replace it if needed. Also, check the vacuum hose for cracks or a loose hose cuff, repairing or replacing as necessary. Ensure the vac shoe angle is correct and adjust if needed. Verify the recovery tank isn't full and the float ball isn't stuck. If the vac shut-off is engaged, drain the recovery tank. If the clamp is loose on vac motor, or the recovery tank inlet is loose or gasket defective, call for service.
What to do if my Hillyard TRIDENT EX20 won't propel when the handles are squeezed?
If your Hillyard Floor Machine doesn't propel when you squeeze the handles, first check if the circuit breaker has tripped and reset it. Make sure the speed control knob is not set to zero; turn it clockwise to increase the speed. If these steps don't work, there may be a faulty speed control board or a faulty propel motor, requiring you to call for service.
How to fix poor water flow on a Hillyard TRIDENT EX20, causing streaky carpets?
If you're experiencing poor or no water flow with your Hillyard Floor Machine, resulting in streaky carpets, start by checking the solution filter for clogs and clean it after draining the solution tank. Inspect the jets for clogs or missing parts, clean them with a vinegar/water solution, or replace them if necessary. Also, ensure that the propel lever is engaged, as the brush switch must be on and the propel lever squeezed to activate spray. If the issue persists, there may be a faulty solenoid, requiring you to call for service.
What causes the vacuum motor to not run on a Hillyard TRIDENT EX20 Floor Machine?
If the vacuum motor on your Hillyard Floor Machine will not run, first check if the vacuum circuit breaker has tripped and reset it. If the breaker is fine, the issue might be a faulty main vacuum switch, loose wiring, or a faulty vacuum motor. In any of these cases, call for service.
What to do if the solution and brush turn on automatically when the brush switch is engaged on my Hillyard TRIDENT EX20?
