floors.
Operator Responsibility
The operator is responsible for performing the
recommended daily maintenance and checkups of the
machine to keep it in good working condition. The
operator must inform the service mechanic or supervisor
when recommended maintenance procedures are
required as prescribed in the MAINTENANCE section of
this manual.

Service Center.
Order parts and supplies only from an Authorized
Amano Pioneer Eclipse Distributor. Use the parts
illustration section of your manual when ordering parts.
During and after operation, perform the recommended
daily and hourly procedures outlined in the Maintenance
Chart.
Test for Operator-Ear Sound Pressure Level
Amano Pioneer Eclipse measures and rates the
operator-ear sound pressure level for hand-guided floor
treatment and floor cleaning machines for industrial use.
All tests are performed in accordance with European
Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC).
Outdoor test area consists of a flat open space free
from effects of signboards, buildings or hillsides for at
least 15m (50ft) from the center of the test surface.
Indoor tests are conducted in a semi-anechoic or
sound deadening room.
The test surface is a single sheet of floor covering at
least 1m (3.3ft) wider and longer than the equipment
being tested. In order to not affect the sound
reading, the observer taking readings is at least 2m
(6.6ft) from the equipment being tested, or standing
directly behind the operator.
All machines are tested while stationary and centered
on the test surface. With the traction drive in neutral
(where applicable) the test is conducted with the
machine at maximum engine or motor speed as
specified by the manufacturer.
The operator is located in the normal operating
position with the microphone or meter supported
independent of the machine, 1, 68m (66in) above
the test surface, 25cm (10in) to the right and left
centerline of the operators position, an 20cm (8in) to
the rear most point of the handle, with the handle in
the most forward position.
The sound level meter is observed for a minimum of
five seconds or until a stabilized reading is obtain.
The maximum repeatable sound level observed
during the test at each microphone position is
recorded and documented.
Test for Hand-Arm Vibration at the Grip
Surface of Hand-Guided Machinery
Amano Pioneer Eclipse measures and rates the
vibration at the machine-hand contact surface of
hand-guided machines that are provided with handles
in accordance with European Machinery Directive
(2006/42/EC).
The test area consists of a flat open floor area that
allows the machine to be operated normally
The transducer is mounted firmly at a point halfway
along the length of the handle where the handle
would normally be held.
Machines are tested while stationary, with all
mechanisms necessary for the equipment to perform
its intended functions engaged and the traction drive
in neutral (if applicable). The machine will be tested
at maximum engine or motor speed as specified by
the manufacturer of the subject machine.
The measurements are recorded from the dominant
axis.

Unpacking the Machine
Unpack the machine with caution. The machine is
shipped boxed on a wooden pallet. To unpack machine:
1. Cut and remove bands holding the box to the pallet.
2. Remove staples attaching the box to the platform at
the bottom edge of the box.
3. With two people, one at either end of the box, lift box
straight up and off machine.
4. Remove any loose or miscellaneous items that are
not strapped to the pallet.
5. Cut and remove bands securing the machine to the
pallet.
6. Carefully take the machine off of the pallet by means
of a wooden or metallic ramp.
7. Cut and remove bands securing the batteries (if
applicable) from the pallet.
8. Open the battery cover and remove any components
that may be inside the battery compartment.
9. Check machine for any damage that may have
occurred during transport.
10. Read carefully the contents of this operators manual.
11. Install the batteries (See the “Installing Batteries”
section).
Transporting the Machine
When shipping the machine, make sure the batteries are
disconnected. It is recommended that the batteries be
removed from the machine during transport. Remove
the splash skirt, pad/brush, and squeegee before
loading to prevent damage to these components. Secure
the machine to the transporting vehicle so that it does
not move during transport. Always engage the parking
brake while the machine is being transported. For a
longer transport, it is recommended to pack the machine
in its original box, with the batteries removed.
To repack the machine, refer to the “Unpacking the
Machine” section, using the original packing materials
and container.
Installing Batteries
Check the batteries for any damage prior to installation.
Make sure there are no cracks or other external
damage.
1. Disconnect the battery plug from the back of the
machine.
2. Lift up the battery cover to access the battery
compartment.
3. Place the batteries in the battery compartment as
shown.
4. Clean the battery terminals and battery cables. Apply
a film of dielectric grease to terminals.
DANGER! Incorrect connection of batteries can
cause an explosion and/or serious injury.
5. Connect the batteries as shown in the battery
connection diagram.
