ORIENTATION TO THE QuicKLEEN
Pressing the "HORN" button will sound the horn as long as it is pressed.
Handle Controls
The handle includes forward/reverse throttle control levers, “On/Off” switch, horn switch,
and a battery indicator meter. The QuicKLEEN should be parked and turned off using
the “On/Off” while not in use.
Occupant Seat Switch
The occupant seat switch is located under the seat. The occupant’s weight on the seat
activates the switch allowing the QuicKLEEN to operate.
WARNING!
A seat switch that is not properly maintained or is disconnected may cause
personal injury and property damage.
STEERING: The QuicKLEEN is turned by exerting light pressure to move the tiller
handle, to the left or right, similar to steering a bicycle.
ACCELERATION AND BRAKING: Acceleration and braking of the QuicKLEEN are
controlled by the throttle control located on both sides of the handle bar. QuicKLEEN
speed is controlled by pushing the throttle control. Braking action occurs as pressure is
released. Braking force can be controlled for quick or gradual stops. Releasing the
control slowly brings the QuicKLEEN to a gradual stop. Releasing it rapidly stops the
QuicKLEEN very quickly. Maximum braking force is applied when the throttle is fully
released.
Manually Moving the QuicKLEEN
To move by hand, empty all materials from the basket. Lift front of machine by pulling
up on the basket. Pull entire machine to desired location.

BATTERY CHARGING
The battery charger is designed to charge 2-12 volt gel, sealed or wet lead acid deep
cycle batteries hooked up in series to full charge. The charger may be left connected to
the batteries after full charge (steady green light). The charger uses minimum power in
this standby-mode, maintains the batteries at full charge and extends battery life. This is
accomplished with an electronics circuitry that controls and regulates the amount of
charging current that is sent from the charger to the batteries being charged.
To recharge the batteries, park the QuicKLEEN in a well-ventilated location near an
electrical outlet. The QuicKLEEN must be turned off.
Plug the coiled cord at the rear of the QuicKLEEN into a wall receptacle. The
battery charger will automatically shut off when the batteries are fully charged.
This takes between two and ten hours, depending upon initial state of charge and
battery condition. Make sure the power to the wall receptacle is not turned
off during the nightly recharging time.
The LED light indicator is visible by lifting the rear cover. The cover release will
have to be raised out of the way to open the rear cover.
Leave the charger connected until ready to use vehicle.
To put the QuicKLEEN back into service after the batteries are fully charged,
disconnect the charger's power extension cord from the wall receptacle and
place it in the cavity in the back of the seat console of the QuicKLEEN.
The lights on the battery charger under the seat will show the charging state while the
charging cord is connected. Fully discharged batteries will result in a charging rate of 12
amperes. As the batteries become fully charged this rate will drop to less than 1 amp.
The batteries are user replaceable parts. The batteries must be replaced by a qualified
service technician of the facility; or call Dane Technologies toll free: 888-544-7779.
NOTE: Charge batteries whenever QuicKLEEN is not in use.

4. CAUTION: To prevent the risk of fire, use the charger only in dry and
ventilated rooms without flammable fluids and explosive gases.
5. To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plugs and cord, pull by plug rather
than the cord when disconnecting the charger.
6. Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper
extension cord could result in risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord
must be used, make sure:
a. The pins on the plug of extension cord are the same number, size and
shape as those on the charger
b. The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition and
the wire size is 16 gauge or larger and no more than 10 feet in length
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or
otherwise subject to damage or stress.
8. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug – replace immediately!
9. Do not operate a charger if it received a sharp blow, has been dropped or
otherwise damaged in any way.
10. Do not disassemble charger!
11. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from AC mains and battery outlet
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
