to determine that no modifications and/or alterations have been made to the RIP-R-STRIPPER.Modifications and/or alterations can lead to the possibility of serious damage, injury or even death. It is theresponsibility of the owner(s) and/or operator(s) to make this Operator Manual available for consultationduring all phases of operation. Refer to OSHA 2207 which contains all OSHA job safety and health rulesand regulations (1926 and 1910) covering construction.

The concept of portable, electrically-powered, floor covering removal equipment has beensuccessfully utilized for over many years as a practical solution to many types of floor coveringremoval requirements. The basic concept is proven and well accepted within the associatedmarketplaces as an alternative method to manual labor. Use of a RIP-R-STRIPPER requiresstrenuous work activity. This type of work activity can be considered to be greater in magnitude thanthat experienced with the use of many other types of both light construction and lawn and gardenrelated equipment. This type of work activity should only be attempted by operators of adequatephysical size and stature, mental awareness and physical strength and condition. The body partsmost noticeably affected during the covering removal process are the arms, hands, wrists,shoulders, lower back and legs. The process can also produce excessive stress/strain directly to theback muscles, spinal vertebrae and many other body parts. Back and wrist related pain can be sideeffects of utilizing a RIP-R-STRIPPER. A potential operator with a chronic back related problem or ahistory of back and/or other medically related problems should not attempt to utilize the RIP-R-STRIPPER. Use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER may only aggravate this and any other medically relatedproblem. Because of the diverse types of prevailing job applications, job site conditions, operatorexperience levels and operator physical characteristics, no warranty, guarantee, representationand/or liability is made by the factory as to the absolute correctness or sufficiency of any operationalprocedure, operational position and/or technique. There is no absolute guarantee that an operatorof any given experience level, physical size and/or physical condition will be immune to thepossibility of and/or probable physical side effects of the normal use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER. Eachpotential operator must be made aware of and assume the operational and physical liabilitydescribed and/or associated with the use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER. Improper use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER can result in property damage and/or personal injury, including death. Each potentialoperator not willing to assume the operational and physical liability described and/or associatedwith the use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER should not operate it. Proper levels of operator experience, skilland common sense are essential for maximizing the safe and efficient operation of the RIP-R-STRIPPER.

Before Starting the RIP-R-STRIPPER

THEORY OF OPERATION

The CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is designed to operateon the principle of an accessory tool operating with adirect impact (back and forth) action to remove a widevariety of covering materials from work surfaces. Thisaction is provided by an electrically powered breaker inthe 35 to 45 lbs category which is secured to the mainframe by a specific mounting kit that is included withthe machine. The accessory tool utilized will affect thetype of materials to be removed, the material removalrate(s) and the resulting smoothness of the worksurface.

The coverings removal process is directly controlled bythese conditions:

1) The use of an accessory tool of proper design andconfiguration to impact and/or scrape against the worksurface and remove material while delivering anacceptable service life.

2) Sufficient static weight or down force as provided bythe operator supporting the accessory tool to allow it toeffectively first penetrate and then remove the coveringmaterial.

3) Adequate force exerted against the RIP-R-STRIPPER by the operator to push the accessory toolagainst the covering material to deliver acceptableproductivity rates.

4) Since no two covering materials are exactly alike, notwo covering materials can be removed by the exactsame method. The nature of the covering removalprocess, along with operator experience, skill andcommon sense, would suggest that efficient andproductive material removal is a matter of trial anderror. The accessory tool, along with the job siteconditions and feed rates supplied by the operator, aredirect factors that will directly determine the overallsuccess of the job application.

ACCESSORY TOOL CONFIGURATIONS ANDAPPLICATIONS.

The CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is designed to utilizeelectric breakers that normally incorporate the use ofindustry standard 1-1/8 inch hexagon x 6 inch shankaccessory tools. These tools are manufactured by anumber of manufacturers to industry design standards.For most job applications, the overall accessory toollength will vary between 18 and 22 inches, dependingupon the specific tool design and usage. Accessorytools are forged from high carbon steel and heattreated to deliver a long service life. They will normallydeliver very acceptable performance and service lifewhen properly maintained. FIGURE 14.

FIGURE 14

Page 20: OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb · OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb Includes Safety, Service and Replacement Part Information Model CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER Form: GOM11121101

ALWAYS FOLLOW THE OPERATIONAL ANDSAFETY INFORMATION AS PROVIDED BY THESPECIFIC ACCESSORY TOOL MANUFACTURER.WEAR PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR, HEARINGPROTECTION, FOOTWEAR AND HANDPROTECTION WHEN OPERATING THE RIP-R-STRIPPER. IMPROPER OPERATIONAL ANDSAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN RESULT INPROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONALINJURY.

DEPENDING UPON THE SPEC IF IC TYPE ,CONFIGURATION OR USAGE, THE ACCESSORYTOOL CAN BE EXTREMELY SHARP. IMPROPERHANDLING, INSTALLATION, REMOVAL ORTRANSPORTATION CAN RESULT IN PROPERTYDAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

While individual accessory tool or blade design andconfiguration will vary, basic operational characteristicsare identical: impact against a floor surface and removethe covering material. This common operationalcharacteristic through extensive testing has led to theuse of the following popular configurations:

Standard 1 and 3 Inch Wide Chisels

1) For most job applications involving the removal ofceramic tiles and glued-down type hardwood floors, thestandard 1 and 3 inch wide chisels have proven todeliver acceptable productivity rates. Use of the twowidths will be determined by how well the tile orflooring materials are actually bonded to the surfacecap. Normal practice is to initially start the removalprocess by utilizing the 3 inch chisel and determinehow effective the resulting blow force is at breakingloose and then removing the covering material from thesurface cap. FIGURE 15.

FIGURE 15

2) If the 3 inch chisel is encountering difficulty in firstloosening and then separating the covering materialfrom the surface cap, the blow force being delivered bythe breaker needs to be concentrated over a morenarrow surface area. Remove the 3 inch chisel andinstall the 1 inch wide chisel. Repeat the evaluationprocess. Use of the 1 inch chisel will concentrate theblow force over a much more narrow area and shouldminimize difficulties in removing the tile. However,productivity rates for this operating configuration willnormally be significantly reduced versus that of the 3inch chisel. FIGURE 16.

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 19

3) The 3 inch chisel has also been demonstrated to bean effective tool for removing a wide range of thinsettype materials from concrete surfaces. When utilized toremove thinset from sub floor materials, there is an increased risk of surface cap damage that will requirerepair before a new material can be installed.

Wide Flat Chisels

1) Flat chisels are available in usually 4 to 5 inch widthsthat are normally utilized with hand-held jackhammersfor cutting asphalt and can also be adapted forremoving thinset-type materials. Depending upon theadhesion strength to the floor surface, increasedremoval rates can sometimes be achieved over that ofthe 1 and 3 inch chisels. FIGURE 17.

FIGURE 17

Scraper Blades

The CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is designed for the usewith scraper blade configurations up to 12 inches widefor a variety of job application, including: mastic andadhesive removal, thinset removal and generalmaterial build-up removal from concrete surfaces.

1) Scraper blades are manufactured from high carbonsteel and heat treated for extended service life. Theynormally feature a blunt cutting edge configuration. Thedirect impact-type forces that are applied during thescraping/removal process are not usually compatiblewith the sharp, ground-type edges normally found withhand-operated scraper products. Hand-held type puttyknives are a good example of the use of a blunt cuttingedge.

2) Blades provided by General Equipment Companyare available in 5, 8-1/2 and 12 inch widths. Use of aspecific size is normally dependent upon such factorsas: the type of material to be removed, thickness,adhesion strength and sub floor configuration.

3) Blades are intended to be utilized to removemastics, adhesives, material build-ups, thinsets, etcfrom concrete type surfaces. Use of scraper blades onwood and certain sub floor configurations can result inexcessive damage to the work surface because of thehammering effect of the blade edge. As a general ruleof operation, scraper blades are not intended to beutilized on these types of surfaces.

4) As a general rule of operation, scraper blades will beutilized at higher angles relative to the work surface formost material and thinset removal job applications.Practical experience suggests the most effective bladeangle range is 35 to 60 degress relative to a flatsurface. Positioning at a lower level prevents the bladeedge from properly penetrating the surface material(mastics, adhesives, thinsets, etc.), thus allowing it torun or skim over rather than removing it. FIGURE 18.

FIGURE 18

Page 22: OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb · OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb Includes Safety, Service and Replacement Part Information Model CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER Form: GOM11121101

Blades are provided with a protective finish fromthe heat treatment process. When not in use,protect and store the blade in an area free ofenvironmental effects that can result in rustdamage.

WITH USAGE, BLADES CAN DEVELOPEXTREMELY SHARP EDGES. IMPROPERHANDLING WHILE INSTALLING/REMOVING FROMTHE MACHINE OR WHILE IMPROPERLYTRANSPORTING CAN RESULT IN PROPERTYDAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

WHEN INSTALLING OR REMOVING A BLADETO/FROM THE RIP-R-STRIPPER, ALWAYS WEARTHE APPROPRIATE SAFETY EYEWEAR, GLOVES,LEATHER SHOES AND LONG PANTS TOMAXIMIZE PERSONAL PROTECTION FROM THESHARP EDGE(S). IMPROPER CONTACT WITH ASHARP EDGE CAN RESULT IN PROPERTYDAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

INSTALLING AN ACCESSORY TOOL TO THECTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER.

Tool required: None, except as noted.

Because the CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is designed tomount a wide variety of breaker models, no standard orspecific procedure for mounting accessory tools can bedeveloped. However, a general procedure coveringbasic installation is as follows:

1) Properly disconnect the extension cord or the RIP-R-STRIPPER from the power source. Turn the masterON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

2) Determine the adjustable section of the operatorhandle is properly attached to the main frame.Determine the ball-detent pins of the fixed section areproperly installed . See Assembly section.

Improperly securing the adjustable section of theoperator handle to the main frame can result in anunstable work platform configuration. An unstableplatform configuration can result in propertydamage and/or personal injury.

3) On a level work surface, deploy the integral kickstands to raise the breaker receiver and allow the RIP-R-STRIPPER to properly lock itself into a stableposition. To deploy the kick stand, raise the latchingmechanism that positions/secures it to the frame.Raise the machine by depressing down on the operatorhandle. Rotate the kick stand until it comes in directcontact with the frame. Allow the machine weight toproperly wedge the kick stand against the frame.Repeat for the other side. This configuration is referredto as the service position. FIGURE 19.

5) The CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is designed tooperate from a clean, 15 ampere, 115 VAC, 60 Hz,nominal power source. Contact the Customer ServiceDepartment for information relative for operation from a220 VAC, 50 Hz power source. A clean power sourcerefers to the amperage available from the individualelectrical circuit selected. Additional electrical productsalready utilizing the same circuit will reduce theavailable amperage, resulting in starting andoperational difficulties.

Operating the CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER from apower source of improper voltage and/or amperagewill result in unrepairable damage to the electricbreaker and related controls.

6) Providing proper voltage and amperage levels to thebreaker motor is essential to obtain maximumproductivity and service life. Low voltage andamperage levels will cause the breaker to overheat.Many electric breakers do NOT incorporate a windingtemperature monitor system that warns of a possibleoverload when the motor winding approach harmfultemperature levels. High temperatures can damageinternal components.

7) If the specific job application requires the use ofadditional extension cord length, determine each cordis of proper structural integrity and size (AWG) to meetapplicable National Electric Code and OSHArequirements. An additional extension cord can beutilized in conjunction with an external GFI. Plug theextension cord into a portable GFI device. Plug theportable GFI device into the power source receptacle.Connect the cord to the provided extension cord/GFI.This configuration will allow any fault over the length ofa defective extension cord to be indicated.

BEFORE USE, INSPECT EACH EXTENSION CORD ANDWIRING DEVICE FOR PROPER STRUCTURALINTEGRITY. DO NOT UTILIZE A CORD WITH A WORNOR CUT OUTER JACKET MATERIAL. DO NOT UTILIZE ACORD WITH EXPOSED INNER WIRES OR INSULATIONMATERIAL. DO NOT UTILIZE A CORD THAT HAS BEENREPAIRED WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE. USE OF A CORDWITH IMPROPER STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY CAN

If the RIP-R-STRIPPER and/or an individualcomponent/accessory tool does not appear to befunctioning properly, STOP and do not operatefurther until the corrective action has beencompleted. If there are any questions regarding theproper operation of the RIP-R-STRIPPER, contactthe Customer Service Department for assistanceBEFORE further utilization. There is no charge forthis service.

OPERATING THE CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER ON THE JOBSITE.

THE FLOOR COVERINGS REMOVAL PROCESSCAN PRODUCE EXCESSIVE NOISE, VIBRATIONAND FLYING DEBRIS. ALL OPERATORS ANDWORK PERSONNEL IN THE VICINITY OF THE RIP-R-STRIPPER MUST WEAR APPROPRIATE SAFETYEYE WEAR AND HEAR ING PROTECT IONDEVICES. OTHER SAFETY APPAREL AND/ORPROCEDURES, DEEMED NECESSARY BYSUPERVISORY PERSONNEL, MUST ALSO BEWO R N A N D / O R P R A C T I C E D B Y A L LAPPROPRIATE PERSONNEL.

1) The RIP-R-STRIPPER utilizes direct blow force fromthe electric breaker to impact the accessory toolagainst the work surface. This design configurationsubstantially enhances machine control and reducesfatigue as long as the accessory tool does not come indirect contact with a larger, protruding obstruction(anchor bolt, nail head, material variances, etc) fromthe floor. Direct contact with such an obstruction canresult in rapid and jerky directional movement of themachine.

Exercise extreme caution when operating the RIP-R-STRIPPER in the vicinity of anchor bolts, pipes,columns, openings, large cracks, utility outlets orany object protruding from the work surface.Contact with such objects can lead to loss ofmachine control, resulting in property damageand/or personal injury.

ALWAYS MAINTAIN PROPER CONTROL OF THERIP-R-STRIPPER. IF AN OPERATOR LOOSESCONTROL, A “RUNAWAY” MACHINE CAN RESULTIN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONALINJURY. BEFORE OPERATION ON THE JOBSITE,DETERMINE THAT RELEASING THE CONTROLHANDLE PROPERLY STOPS THE ELECTRICBREAKER.

WHEN OPERATING THE RIP-R-STRIPPER ONABOVE GROUND FLOOR LEVELS, EXERCISEEXTREME CAUTION TO PREVENT LOSS OFCONTROL THAT COULD ALLOW THE MACHINEAND/OR OPERATOR TO FALL DOWN TO LOWERLEVELS. WHEN MOVING BACKWARDS DURINGTHE COVERING MATERIAL REMOVAL PROCESS,BE AWARE OF POTENTIAL DROP-OFFS ANDOBSTRUCTIONS ON THE JOBSITE.

2) Proper operator posture and stance will enhanceproductivity rates and minimize fatigue. Keep the upperbody as vertical as possible. Keep legs at acomfortable distance apart to maximize leverage andlocomotion force. A proper operator position is depictedin FIGURE 31. Improper operator positions aredepicted in FIGURES 32 and 33. The proper andimproper operation positions depicted in this manualare not all inclusive.

3) The wide variety of potential covering materialsalong with the corresponding variety of jobsiteenvironments, makes it impossible to developstandardized operating procedures for the RIP-R-STRIPPER. Use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER will requireconstant trial and error until satisfactory results areachieved. Experience, gained over time, along withgood common sense, will help minimize the amount ofnecessary testing. Many factors will directly affect theoperating parameters and/or techniques utilized for aspecialized job application. Some of these factorsinclude:

a) Work surface material yield and tensile values, as ageneral rule, will determine material removal rates per

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 29

Page 32: OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb · OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb Includes Safety, Service and Replacement Part Information Model CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER Form: GOM11121101

unit of time. Materials with high yield and tensile valueswill lower accessory tool penetration. For suchmaterials, the accepted procedure is to decrease theeffective tool/blade width and determine the optimumtool/blade angle relative to the work surface. This willrequire adjusting the tool/blade angle with theextension system.

FIGURE 31

FIGURE 32

b) Higher material removal rates can sometimes beachieved by making a series of passes 90 degrees toeach other to form a waffle-like pattern. This techniqueis especially useful when removing deeperaccumulations of rubber-like materials, material

residues and dirt/debris from industrial floors.c) The covering material removal process can beextremely abrasive to the accessory tool cutting edge. Straight edge type blades are not intended to beresharpened. Depending upon the exact configuration,blades maybe sharpened in the field by the use of ametal file or other accepted process. The use of the fileor other sharpening process will not duplicate theoriginal blade sharpening process, but can significantlyincrease overall productivity rates versus continueduse of a dull blade. Remove the blade from the RIP-R-STRIPPER per the procedures outlined in this manual.Sharpen according to industry accepted practices andprocedures.

FIGURE 33

4) The floor covering material removal process onmany work materials can produce sparks, dusts andother foreign particle contamination. Many coveringmaterials, adhesives or mastics can contain asbestosand other chemicals that are known to cause physicalharm and/or affect the environment. These types of

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 30

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 31

materials need to be properly identified, contained anddisposed of according to established OSHA, EPA andother rules and regulations.

SPARKS PRODUCED BY THE ACTION OF THEACCESSORY TOOL CUTTING BLADE AGAINSTTHE WORK SURFACE (FOR EXAMPLE: STRIKINGANCHOR BOLTS) CAN RESULT IN A FIRE AND/OREXPLOSION DEPENDING UPON EXISTINGENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. THISOCCURRENCE CAN RESULT IN PROPERTYDAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.

THE CREATION OF DUST AND OTHER FOREIGNPART ICLE CONTAM INAT ION FROM THECOVERING MATERIAL REMOVAL PROCESS CANRESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/ORPERSONAL INJURY. FOR SUCH OPERATINGCONDITIONS, ALWAYS WEAR A NIOSH/MSHAAPPROVED DUST/MIST RESPIRATOR ANDAPPROPRIATE SAFETY RELATED APPAREL.CONSULT APPLICABLE OSHA REGULATIONSFOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION.

5) Dust and other particle contamination can becontrolled by the use of an appropriate industrial-typewater mist spray system to remove/control dust andother particle contamination from the work surface.

ALWAYS UTILIZE A WATER MIST SPRAY SYSTEMTO OPERATE WITHIN THE SPECIFIC JOB SITEREQUIREMENT. DUST MATERIALS CAN MEETCLASS II OR CLASS III SPECIFICATIONS ASDEFINED BY THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODEREGULATIONS FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.CONSIDERATION MUST ALSO BE GIVEN TO THECREATION OF HAZARDOUS-TYPE MATERIALSREQUIRING SPECIFIC DISPOSAL PROCEDURES.DETERMINE THE WATER MIST SPRAY SYSTEM ISPROPERLY DESIGNED TO OPERATE WITHINTHESE ATMOSPHERES. CONSULT CURRENTNATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE, OSHA AND EPAREGULATIONS FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION.

6) Excessive water applied to the work surface isnormally not utilized to control dust and other particlecontamination. Excessive water, and/or otherconductive materials, should be removed from thework surface by an industry-approved and/or acceptedpractice BEFORE utilizing the RIP-R-STRIPPER toremove the covering material. The presence of waterand/or any other conductive material on the worksurface can substantially increase the potentialelectrocution concern for the operator and/orassociated work personnel.

WATER OR OTHER CONDUCTIVE MATERIALSDEPOSITED ON THE WORK SURFACEINCREASES THE ELECTROCUTION HAZARDPOTENTIAL FOR THE OPERATOR AND/ORASSOCIATED WORK PERSONNEL. DETERMINETHE RIP-R-STRIPPER IS PROPERLY GROUNDED(NO FAULTS), POWER CORDS ARE FREE OFCUTS, ABRASIONS AND EXPOSED CABLESTRANDS. IMPROPER GROUNDING AND THE USEOF DAMAGED POWER CORDS CAN RESULT INPROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONALINJURY.

7) Normal use of the RIP-R-STRIPPER will allow thebuild-up and accumulation of materials on exposedsurfaces. It is highly recommended that all exposedsurfaces be properly cleaned after each use. Adjust thewheel scraper clearance to minimize materialaccumulations.

Failure to properly clean the RIP-R-STRIPPER canresult in the formation of dried material build-upsand accumulations. This occurrence can reducebearing service life and increase the vibrationlevels felt by the operator during use.

WHEN CLEANING THE RIP-R-STRIPPER USEONLY A SAFETY-TYPE SOLVENT THAT WILL NOTDETERIORATE AND REDUCE THE SERVICE LIFEOF THE ELASTOMERIC RUBBER AND URETHANEMOUNTS.

Page 34: OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb · OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb Includes Safety, Service and Replacement Part Information Model CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER Form: GOM11121101

PROPERLY DISPOSE OF ALL ACCUMULATEDCOVERING MATERIALS PER OSHA AND EPACODES AND REGULATIONS. MANY MATERIALSCAN BE CLASSIFIED AS HAZARDOUS ANDREQUIRE PROPER DISPOSAL PROCEDURES.CONTACT THE APPLICABLE GOVERNMENTAGENCIES FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION.

8) When the covering removal process creates aconsiderable amount of loose material on the worksurface, it can be almost impossible to determineproper material removal depths and the extent of thework already completed. The problem can be furthercompounded if a proper vacuum system and/or broomis not utilized. Loose material should be consistentlyremoved with an appropriate vacuum or broom duringthe removal process.

STOPPING THE CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER ON THEJOBSITE.

Stop the RIP-R-STRIPPER by releasing the controlhandle to move the internal ON/OFF switch locatedwithin the operator handle to the OFF position. As abackup system, the master ON/OFF switch can beturned to the OFF position to stop the RIP-R-STRIPPER. As a safety precaution, turn the masterON/OFF switch located on the operator handle to theOFF position when the machine is not in use. As anadded safety measure, disconnect the GFI from thepower source. FIGURE 34.

FIGURE 34

OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS AND TECHNIQUESFOR THE CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER.

1) The specific type and/or density of adhesives,mastics and thin set materials which bond coatings tothe work surface can directly affect removal rates.Many adhesives or mastics remain flexible in the fullycured state. These types of materials are usuallydarker or black in color. The adhesives and masticswhich become dried in the fully cured state are usuallyyellowish or opaque. These materials will usuallyrequire less effort to remove that the darker types.

2) As a general rule, the thinner the amount ofadhesive (ie: the amount used) utilized to adhere thecovering to the work surface, the lower the forcerequired to “shear” through the bond and thus, thehigher the covering material removal rate.

3) As a general rule, the thicker the adhesive (ie: theamount used) utilized to adhere the covering to thework surface, the greater the force required to “shear”through the bond and thus, the lower the coveringremoval rate. Typically, there will be a greater amountof adhesive residue remaining that will also requireremoval before the new covering material is installed.

4) Typically, adhesive/mastic densities or thicknesseschange on the job usually as a result of applicationrates on the work surface. This, in turn, directly affectsbond strengths. As these factors change on worksurfaces, the accessory tool angle can be changed by

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 32

the operator to help optimize covering material removalrates. As a general rule, thinner adhesive bonds (lessadhesive used) will allow the operator to decrease theaccessory tool angle relative to the work surface.Thicker adhesive bonds (more adhesive used) willrequire the operator to increase the accessory toolangle relative to the work surface.

5) Keep the power and extension cords free and clearof the accessory tool while the CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER is in operation. Accessory tool contact withthe power and/or extension cord can result in damagewhile creating a potential electrocution concern. In theevent of damage, replace the component with a factoryapproved replacement part only.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST.

The normal operation of the RIP-R-STRIPPER canproduce extreme dirt and dust, along with levels ofrandom vibration. During routine maintenance, thefollowing service list should be accomplished. This listis for reference only and is not intended to be all

inclusive. Other topic areas can be added at thediscretion of the owner(s) and/or operator(s):

1) Before performing any maintenance, disconnect theRIP-R-STRIPPER from the power source.

2) Determine the master ON/OFF switch is in the OFFposition. Determine releasing the control handledeploys the internal ON/OFF switch to the OFFposition.

DISCONNECT THE RIP-R-STRIPPER FROM THEEXTENSION CORD AND/OR POWER SOURCERECEPTACLE BEFORE PERFORMING ANYSERVICE WORK OR REPAIR. TURN THE MASTERON/OFF SWITCH TO THE OFF POSIT ION.DETERMINE RELEASING THE CONTROL HANDLEMOVES THE INTERNAL ON/OFF SWITCH TO THEOFF POS IT ION . FA ILURE TO PROPERLYDISCONNECT THE RIP-R-STRIPPER FROM THEPOWER SOURCE DURING THESE ACTIVITIESCAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/ORPERSONAL INJURY.

3) Remove the accessory tool according to theprocedure as outline in this manual.

4) Check all fasteners for proper torque values, If afastener requires retorquing, consult a torque chart forthe proper value. Replace any worn fastener with afactory approved replacement part only.

5) Inspect the rubber elastomeric handle mounts fordamage and/or wear. Mounts are subject to significantloading and vibration levels during the normaloperation of the RIP-R-STRIPPER:

a) In normal operation, the load capacity of the mountswill decrease over time from wear and environmental-related considerations.

b) Mounts have a maximum service limits of 36 monthsor 250 operational hours, whichever comes first. Amaintenance schedule that regularly replaces mountsbefore failure is experienced will significantly increaseROI and decrease overall maintenance costs.

6) Inspect the urethane blocks that secure the electricbreaker for damage and/or wear. Blocks are subject to

CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPERFORM GOM11121101, VERSION 1.1 33

Page 36: OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb · OPERATOR MANUAL OwatonnaYMMinnesotaMggbhb Includes Safety, Service and Replacement Part Information Model CTS12 RIP-R-STRIPPER Form: GOM11121101

significant load and vibration levels during normaloperation of the RIP-R-STRIPPER:

a) In normal operation, the load capacity of the blockswill decrease over time from wear and environmentallyrelated considerations. The ability of the urethanematerial to recover or take a permanent “set”decreases the ability to secure the electric breaker inproper position. If normal clamping forces allow theelectric breaker to move relative to the mountassembly, the urethane blocks require replacementwith factory approved replacement parts only.

b) Urethane blocks have a maximum service limit of 36months or 250 operational hours, whichever comesfirst. A maintenance schedule that regularly replacesblocks before failure is experienced will significantlyincrease ROI and decrease overall maintenance costs.

7) Keep loose materials from accumulating around theelectric breaker mount area. Material accumulationswill affect machine balance and air flowing through theelectric breaker motor which can significantly reduceservice life. Keep the air inlets of the electric breakerfree and clear of foreign material accumulations. Use asafety type solvent for cleaning the RIP-R-STRIPPER.Do not utilize thinners, benzine or other volatilesolvents for cleaning the RIP-R-STRIPPER.

Observe all applicable safety precautions for thesolvent.

8) Lubricate the caster wheel bearings with a spray-type, dry film lubricant. Use of other lubricant types canattract foreign materials and reduce bearing servicelife.

9) Inspect the operator handle for proper structuralintegrity, including: cracks and abrasions. Replace anyquestionable component with a factory-approved,replacement part only.

10) Determine that all safety and operational decals(including the applicable Quik-Tips information) is inproper and readable condition. Replace any missingand/or damaged safety or informational decal with afactory-approved, replacement part only.

11) The RIP-R-STRIPPER utilizes antivibration-typehandle grips on the operator handle to enhance controland help dampen the forces experienced during thecovering material removal process. Determine thehandle is equipped with properly fitting grips ofsufficient integrity to allow for proper job function asoutlined in this manual. Loose fitting handle grips orgrips without end caps should be replaced with factory-approved, replacement parts only.

DO NOT OPERATE THE R IP -R -STR IPPERWITHOUT PROPERLY FITTED HANDLE GRIPS OFSUFF I C I ENT S TRUCTURAL I N TEGR I T YINSTALLED ON THE OPERATOR HANDLE.OPERATING THE RIP-R-STRIPPER WITHWORN/DAMAGED GRIPS OR NO HANDLE GRIPSCAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/ORPERSONAL INJURY.

3) Check all visible parts for wear, breakage ordamage. Order any part required to make thenecessary repair. This will avoid a needless delay whenoperating the RIP-R-STRIPPER at next use.

4) Apply a dry film lubricant to all exposed metalcomponents, including the accessory tool, to preventthe formation of rust.

5) Block the bottom of the main frame to preventmachine weight against the urethane blocks. Thisprocedure will reduce impact loads to the blocks,minimize deflection/set and increase service life.

5) Store the RIP-R-STRIPPER inside. If the RIP-R-STRIPPER must be stored outside, protect it with asuitable covering.
