3-3
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Prior to starting the installation, first read the
ENTIRE "Installation” section of this manual. Since
the PERFORMER cleaning unit (with waste tank and
accessories) weighs 1209 pounds (PERFORMER
405 weighs 1255 lbs.), consider the following
recommendations before installing this unit.
1. The unit should NOT be mounted in any motor
vehicle of less than 3/4 ton capacity.
The console with waste tank and accessories
must NOT exceed the vehicle's axle weight limit.
2. If mounting in a trailer, make certain that the
trailer is rated for the total weight of the UNIT
AND TRAILER. Electric or hydraulic brakes
should be provided, and a strict compliance with
any State and Federal vehicle laws must be
maintained.
3. The vehicle tires should have a load rating
above the combined vehicle and unit weight.
4. We do not recommend using flooring materials
that absorb water. This could result in rust and
corrosion of the vehicle floor.
5. Padding under rubber floor mats should be
removed before installing this unit.
6. We highly recommend using a galvanized drip
tray under the console (Part #56-501845).
7. If using a trailer, the PERFORMER/PER-
FORMER 405 console should be positioned so
that it balances properly with respect to the axle.
Ten percent (10%) of the overall unit weight
(without accessories or water) should be on the
tongue.
