THE CONTROL CONSOLE
For operator ergonomics, the control console houses all the primary function buttons are
grouped in a central area. The key switch, main keyboard, directional switch and off-aisle
wand switch are clustered in the back area. The directional switch (forward and reverse) is
located in front of the console for easy fingertip operation.
Accelerator Lever
(A) Enables the machine to move forward or backwards once depressed.
Speed Control
(B) This knob controls the rate at which the machine moves. Turning the knob clockwise will
increase the speed. Turning the knob counter-clockwise will decrease the machine speed.
Directional Switch
(C) When you flip the switch down, the machine moves backwards or flip the switch upward,
the machine will go forward.
Directional Indicator
(D) This indicator displays which direction the ES 2832 will travel once the Accelerator Lever
is depressed. A light is available for each direction. Amber when set to forward. Red when
set to reverse.
Key switch
(E) Controls the machine’s power (On/Off) with a key for safety. All operational settings are
retained even when the power is turned off and on. This also serves as a reset switch when
error or fault codes.
Emergency Belly Bar
(F) If this bar is to be depressed it will override the directional switch and force the ES 2832 to
go forward. Most useful if backed into a corner or object to prevent from pinching the
operator.
Off-aisle wand switch
(G) On/Off control for the water supply to the wand and vacuum motor. If the switch is in the
On position it will force the battery gauge to blink 6 LEDs to signify the wand is currently on.
Battery Gauge
(H) This gauge displays the remaining battery life. The gauge has a readout of 10 LEDs. 3
Green, 4 Amber, 3 Red. This gauge will also display the fault code if the system has an error
represented by the number illuminated flashing LEDs. See Fault/Diagnostics Codes below for
specific code.
If the battery life is low the battery gauge bar icon will be flashing to signal the operator that
the machine is almost out of power. Once this signal is displayed to the operator, all functions
will shut off including the transport mode. The operator has to turn the key switch OFF and
then, ON to reset the machine. The machine then will only have a few minutes left of reserve
power for a short Vacuum only mode to pick up remaining solution on the floor and Transport
power.
Solution Control
(I) This knob controls the rate at which solution is put down. Turning the knob clockwise will
increase the amount of solution put down. Turning the knob counter-clockwise will decrease
the solution rate. The knob can be adjusted between 0.25 gpm up to 1.1 gpm.
Mode Selector
(J) This switch will toggle between one of the five cleaning modes available on the ES 2832.
