NOTICE TO OPERATORS
CAUTION
The concept of electrically powered, walk-behind type floor covering removal equipment has been
successfully utilized for many years as a practical solution to many types of floor covering removal
requirements. The basic concept is proven and well accepted within the associated marketplaces. Use of
a FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER requires strenuous work activity. This type of work activity can be
considered to be greater in magnitude than that experienced with the use of many other types of both
light construction and lawn and garden related equipment. This type of work activity should only be
attempted by operators of adequate physical size and stature, mental awareness and physical strength
and condition. The body parts most 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 the back muscles, spinal vertebrae and many other body parts. Back and wrist
related pain can be side effects of utilizing a FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER. A potential operator with a
chronic back related problem or a history of back and/or other medically related problems should not
attempt to utilize the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER. Use of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER may only
aggravate this and any other medically related problem. Because of the diverse type of prevailing job
applications, job site conditions, operator experience levels and operator physical characteristics, no
warranty, guarantee, representation and/or liability is made by the manufacturer as to the absolute
correctness or sufficiency of any operational procedure, operational position and/or technique. There is
no absolute guarantee that an operator of any given experience level, physical size and/or physical
condition will be immune to the possibility of and/or probable physical side effects of the normal use of
the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER. Each potential operator must be made aware of and assume the
operational and physical liability described and/or associated with the use of the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER. Improper use of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER can result in property damage and/or
personal injury, including death. Each potential operator not willing to assume the operational and
physical liability described and/or associated with the use of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER, should
not operate it. Proper levels of operator experience, skill and common sense are essential for maximizing
the safe and efficient operation of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER.

the back.
motor according to the instructions as outlined in this
manual to minimize the possibility of unexpected or
uncontrolled blade/accessory oscillation. Unexpected
blade/accessory rotation can cause loss of machine
control, and the possibility of property damage and/or
personal injury.
6) Prolonged use of the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER (or other, similar machines) exposes the
operator to vibrations which may produce Whitefinger
Disease (Raynaud's Phenomenon). This phenomenon
reduces the hand's ability to feel and regulate
temperature, produces numbness and burning
sensations and may cause nerve and circulation
damage and tissue necrosis. Antivibration systems do
not guarantee that you will not sustain Whitefinger
Disease. Therefore, continuous and regular users
should closely monitor the condition of their hands and
fingers. After each period of use, exercise to restore
normal blood circulation. If any of the symptoms
appear, seek medical advice immediately.
11) Never exceed the recommended capacities of the
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER. Refer to the
Specifications section of this manual for more
detailed information. Always utilize the correct blade
and extension cord designed for use with the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER. Use of an incorrect blade or
extension cord can result in property damage and/or
personal injury.
OPERATION.
7) Clothing must be sturdy and snug fitting, but allow
complete freedom of movement. Never wear loose
fitting jackets, scarves, neckties, jewelry, flared or
cuffed pants or anything that could become caught on
controls or moving parts. Wear long pants to protect
your legs. Protect your hands with heavy duty, nonslip
gloves to improve your grip. Good footing is most
important when operating the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER. Wear sturdy boots with nonslip soles.
Steel-toed safety shoes are highly recommended.
Keep shoes properly laced. Never wear tennis shoes
or other, similar type shoes which afford little or no
protection. Wear an approved safety hard hat to
protect the operator'(s') head(s) where there is a
danger of head injuries. Noise, generated by the
operation of the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER and
the actual process itself, can damage your hearing.
Wear approved sound barriers (ear plugs or ear
mufflers) to protect your hearing. Continuous and
regular operators should have their hearing checked
regularly.
1) Give complete and undivided attention to the job at
hand. Do not chew gum, smoke and/or use smokeless
tobacco while utilizing the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER. Do not attempt to eat and/or drink while
utilizing the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER.
Determine that eyeglasses, hearing aid devices and
other medical related devices are properly secured.
Keep shoes properly laced. Use of the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER is strenuous and causes
fatigue. Help prevent the cause of an accident. Plan to
take work breaks as required to help maintain proper
mental and physical alertness.
2) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is not sealed
or insulated. Do not operate the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER in an explosive atmosphere or near
combustible materials. Refer to current OSHA rules
and regulations.
3) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is designed for
use by one operator. Use of the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER by more than one operator can lead to
confusion and loss of control, resulting in property
damage and/or personal injury. Never operate the
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER with an improper
number of operators. Such a configuration can result
in property damage and/or personal injury. If it is felt
that more than one person is required to furnish
additional "force" to the blade, STOP and contact the
Customer Service Department for specific operational
and service/maintenance information. There is no
charge for this service.
8) Visually inspect the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER, blade(s), and accessories for damaged or
worn parts. Check for loose and/or broken parts.
Determine that operator controls work freely, all safety
devices are operative and information/safety decals
are readable. Check to determine that the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER and all related accessories
are in good mechanical condition BEFORE utilization.
9) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER and related
accessories are not classified as being insulated.
Contact with electrical cables, gas lines and other
hazardous items can result in electrocution and/or an
explosion.
4) Do not operate the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER
with onlookers close by. Caution all onlookers to stand
clear. The coverings removal process process can
result in flying particles being emitted at high velocity
and striking the operator and/or onlookers. This can
lead to the possibility of property damage and/or
10) Know how the controls operate. Know how to stop
the motor quickly in an emergency. Always start the

foreign objects clear of the oscillating blade/accessory
MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND STORAGE.
1) Use only genuine, approved replacement parts and
accessories for maintenance and repair. Use of parts
and accessories manufactured by others can result in
property damage and/or personal injury.
5) Start the motor according to the instructions as
outlined in this manual to minimize the possibility of
unexpected blade/accessory oscillation. Unexpected
blade/accessory oscillation can result in the loss of
machine control and the possibility of property damage
and/or personal injury.
2) Follow the Service instructions as outlined in the
appropriate section of this manual.
6) Operate the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER only
when/where visibility and light are adequate for the job
at hand. Work carefully. Always hold the operator
handle firmly with both hands. Wrap your fingers
around the handle grips, keeping them cradled
between your thumbs and fingers. Always determine
the operator handle is in good condition and free of
moisture, pitch, oil or grease. Wear gloves to improve
your grip. Never leave the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER running unattended.
3) Always stop the motor and disconnect the extension
cord BEFORE checking or working on the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER.
4) Always properly maintain the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER. Frequently check all fasteners and
individual parts. Built in safety features are effective
only if they are maintained in good working condition.
Replace any questionable part or assembly with a
genuine, factory approved, replacement part. Do not
forsake proper maintenance for the price of a few
replacement parts. Proper maintenance does not
cost...it actually pays dividends. Do not attempt any
maintenance repair work not described in this manual.
Have such work performed at your dealer's service
facility.
7) Stop the motor while moving and/or repositioning
the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER on the jobsite.
Allowing the motor to remain operating substantially
increases the potential for property damage and/or
personal injury. Special care must be exercised on
slippery conditions and on difficult, uneven surfaces.
Watch for cracks, high spots and other surface
irregularities. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. The normal use of this machine is on level
surfaces. Other terrains can be dangerous and should
be avoided. Only properly trained operators should
attempt these techniques.
5) Maintain all safety and operation decals in proper
condition. If any decal becomes damaged and/or
unreadable, replace with a genuine, factory approved,
replacement part only.
6) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER may utilize self
locking type hexagon head nuts to minimize the
effects of vibration. Replace all self locking hardware
with genuine, factory approved, replacement parts
only.
8) Because the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is
classified as a low cost, low horsepower, portable type
machine, it is limited in the number of practical and/or
suitable job applications. A particular job site, actual
surface conditions, job specifications and operator
skill/common sense may dictate that a different type of
machine (with characteristics of higher purchase cost,
being mounted to a carrier vehicle, with greater
horsepower and less mobility), method and/or process
be utilized to properly complete the job with the degree
of efficiency and safety required. Contact the
Customer Service Department for specific information
regarding suitable job applications, job site surface
conditions and operator experience/skill/common
sense recommendations for the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER BEFORE utilization. There is no charge for
this service.
7) Consult the material supplied by the motor
manufacturer for specific information relative to proper
operational, lubrication and storage requirements.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATION
Check all fasteners for proper security. Consult a
fastener torque chart for the proper torque value if any
fastener is found to require retorquing.
Assembly
The MULTIQUIP SFCS16 FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER is shipped from the factory secured on a
specially designed wooden pallet and protected from
external damage by a corrugated carton or wood
crate. If shipped with a corrugated carton, the Surface
Grinder is secured to the pallet with wood support
strips. Remove the carton or crate immediately upon
receipt using suitable tools to remove the nails.
INSTALLATION OF THE ADJUSTABLE SECTION
OF THE OPERATOR HANDLE.
The installation of the adjustable section of the
operator will require a level working surface of
sufficient size and appropriate height.
REMOVING THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER
FROM THE PALLET.
1) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER incorporates
an operator handle design that folds for transport and
storage. The handle is secured to the main frame at
two locations; a pivoting (fixed) location secured by
Allen head type capscrews and a retaining (locking)
location secured by removeable, ball-detent type pins.
The pins are secured to the main frame by lanyards.
Tools Required:
1 each, cutting type pliers.
1 each, claw hammer or a hammer and an appropriate
pry bar.
2) To place the operator handle in the work position,
move the handle upright so that the ball-detent pins
can be inserted through the operator handle and main
frame. Determine the ball-detent pins are properly
inserted through the operator handle and main frame
to fully expose the ball detent. FIGURE 1.
Remove the corrugated carton which is fastened to the
pallet. The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is secured
to the pallet with banding. Using the pliers, cut and
remove the banding. The FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER can then be removed from the pallet.

the adjustable section at a comfortable height.
Reinstall the threaded knobs and tighten until the
studs trust up tight against the adjustable handle
section.
THEORY OF OPERATION.
The SFCS16 FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER is
designed to operate on the principle of various blades
and/or attachments oscillating with a random orbital
movement to remove a wide variety of covering
materials from work surfaces. Various types of multi-
accessory blades and/or accessory attachments are
secured to the exciter plate located on the bottom of
the machine. The specific type of blade and/or
accessory attachment utilized directly affects the type
of material removed, the material removal rate and the
resulting smoothness of the work surface.
CAUTION
The ergonomic design considerations of the
adjustable section of the operator handle will only
function if the handle grips are installed facing
backwards (toward) the operator. Installing the
adjustable section of the operator handle with the
handle grips facing forward (away) from the
operator will decrease machine control and
productivity.
The coverings removal process is directly controlled
by these conditions:
1) The use of a suitable mechanism (blade or
accessory attachment) of proper design and
configuration to scrape against the work surface and
remove material while delivering an acceptable
service life.
CAUTION
INSTALLING THE ADJUSTABLE SECTION OF THE
OPERATOR HANDLE WITH THE HANDLE GRIPS
FACING
FORWARD
(AWAY)
FROM
THE
OPERATOR WILL NOT ALLOW THE THREADED
STUDS TO PROPERLY LOCATE WITHIN THE
SLOTS OF THE ADJUSTABLE HANDLE. THE SLOT
ENDS FORM INTEGRAL STOPS FOR THE
THREADED STUDS TO THRUST AGAINST. A
PROPER STUD/SLOT CONFIGURATION WILL
PREVENT THE ADJUSTABLE HANDLE FROM
INADVERTENTLY SEPARATING FROM THE FIXED
SECTION WHEN TRAVERSING AN INCLINE SUCH
AS A STAIRWAY. INADVERTENT SEPARATION OF
THE ADJUSTABLE HANDLE SECTION CAN
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
2) Sufficient static weight supporting the blade or
accessory attachment to allow it to effectively
penetrate and remove the covering material.
3) Adequate force exerted against the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER by the operator that pushes
the blade or accessory attachment against the
covering material to deliver acceptable productivity
rates.
4) Since no two covering materials are exactly alike,
no two covering materials can be removed by the
exact same method. The nature of the covering
removal process, along with operator experience, skill
and common sense, would suggest that efficient and
productive material removal is a matter of trial and
error. Combinations of blade or accessory attachment
type, jobsite conditions, and feed rates are direct
factors that will also determine the overall success of
the job application.
Improper knob tension and/or improperly securing
the operator handle to the main frame can result in
an unstable platform configuration. An unstable
platform configuration can result in property
damage and/or personal injury.
BLADE CONFIGURATIONS, ACCESSORY
ATTACHMENTS AND APPLICATIONS.
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER blades are fabricated
from high carbon steel, precision machined and heat
treated for extended service life. Blades are marked to
depict use on either concrete or wood surfaces. When
utilized on concrete, the cutting edge is positioned
facing up. FIGURE 3. On wood flooring surfaces, the

cutting edge faces down against the surface. FIGURE
4. This configuration allows the blade to skim over the
surface and minimize any tendency to gouge or dig
into the wood. A slotted blade configuration is
employed to lower installation and removal time. The
slotted configuration is also intended to help minimize
direct exposure of hands, arms and other body parts
to the blade during the installation or removal process.

While individual blade or accessory attachment design
and configuration may vary, basic operational
characteristics are identical: impact against a floor
surface and remove the covering material. This
common operational characteristic has led to the
development of the following popular blade
configurations and accessory attachments:
Angled Mastic Removal Blade.
FIGURE 3
This blade configuration is utilized to remove a wide
variety of adhesives, mastics and material residues
from concrete surfaces. The steep angle increases
the cutting edge position relative to the floor surface.
The angle increase allows the blade to better
penetrate the material and then shear and scrape it
from the floor surface. The cutting edge faces down
toward the floor surface. Angled mastic blades are
utilized on concrete surfaces only. Use on wood
surfaces will only dig into and remove substrate
material. FIGURE 5.
FIGURE 4
CAUTION
A protective covering is provided to protect the blade
cutting edge from external damage and minimize the
potential for property damage and/or personal injury.
Store the blade with the protective covering
properly installed to minimize the effects of
external damage to the cutting edge and the
potential for property damage and/or personal
injury.
FIGURE 5
Straight Beveled Cutting Edge Blade.
This blade configuration is utilized to remove a wide
variety of VCT and linoleum tiles along with general
material removal from concrete and wood surfaces.
Some blades feature two cutting edges. Position the
blade edge facing up for use on concrete surfaces.

Flip the blade over for use on wood surfaces. Specific
blades are available for removing covering materials
from either concrete or wood surfaces. This blade
design does not allow it to be flipped over for use on
both concrete and wood surfaces. FIGURE 6.
Ceramic Tile Ripper Attachment.
This attachment is designed for light to medium duty
projects requiring the removal of ceramic, thicker VCT
and linoleum tiles, hardwood floors, etc, from concrete
and wood surfaces. FIGURE 8.

Straight Beveled Scoring Blades.
The primary design function for the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER is not to remove ceramic
tile. Removing ceramic tile is a secondary job
application that may require the use of a machine
and/or process with significant greater stability,
power and/or impact force. The FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER has demonstrated the ability to remove
ceramic tile for those job applications classified as
light to medium duty. An improper job application
for the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER may result in
property damage and/or personal injury.
This blade configuration is utilized to remove glued
type carpet and soft sheet type (PVC, rubber,
linoleum, etc) materials from concrete and wood
surfaces. FIGURE 7. The cutting wings score the
covering material to aid in removal. Specific part

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATION
1) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER utilizes an
offset weight design (termed the exciter) that
moves the blade or ceramic tile ripper attachment
with a random orbit oscillation. This design
configuration substantially enhances machine
control and reduces fatigue as long as the blade
or ceramic tile ripper attachment does not come in
direct contact with a protruding obstruction from
the floor. Direct contact with such an obstruction
can result in rapid and jerky directional movement
of the machine. This occurrence can lead to loss
of machine control, property damage and/or
personal injury. In most operating situations, direct
contact with a protruding obstruction from the work
surface will, at a minimum, result in damage to the
blade and/or ceramic tile ripper attachment.

INJURY.
WHEN
WALKING
BACKWARDS DURING THE COVERING REMOVAL
PROCESS, BE AWARE OF DROP OFFS AND

2) Productivity rates with the various blade and/or
attachments can be increased with the addition of
external weight being applied to the front of the
machine. FIGURE 23. Each external weight block
weighs 14 lbs (6.3 kg). Maximum allowable external
weight permits the use of three blocks or 42 lbs (19
kg). Exceeding this figure can result in permanent
structural damage to the FLOOR COVERING
SCRAPER. The additional external weight blocks can
be secured to the machine with the use of longer
length carriage bolts. FIGURE 24.

3) Proper operator posture and stance will enhance
productivity rates and minimize fatigue. Adjust the
operator handle height to place the handle grips at
approximately waist level. Keep the upper body as
vertical as possible. This procedure will help to
maximize leverage and minimize back related stress.
Keep feet a comfortable distance apart to help provide
stability and locomotion force. A proper operator
position is depicted in FIGURE 25. Improper operator
positions are depicted in FIGURES 26 and 27. The
proper and improper operator positions depicted in this
manual are not all inclusive.
FIGURE 27
4) The wide variety of potential covering materials
along with the corresponding variety of jobsite
environments, makes it impossible to develop a
standardized operating procedure for the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER. Use of the FLOOR
COVERING SCRAPER will require constant trial and
error testing until satisfactory results are achieved.
Experience, gained over time, along with good
common sense will help minimize the amount of
necessary testing. Many factors will directly affect the
operating parameters and/or techniques utilized for a
specialized job application. Some of these factors
include:
FIGURE 25
a) Work surface material yield and tensile values. As a
general rule, these values will determine material
removal rate per unit of time. Materials with high yield
and tensile values will characteristically resist/limit
penetration. For such materials, the accepted
procedure is to decrease blade width and determine
optimum blade angle relative to the floor surface. This
will require increasing or decreasing the blade angle
with the Back Saver™ Blade Control System. Other
added benefits to this technique are decreased
vibration, less operator fatigue and increased
component service life.
FIGURE 26
b) Higher material removal rates can sometimes be
achieved by making a series of passes 90 degrees to
each other to form a waffle like pattern. This technique
is especially useful when removing deeper
accumulations of rubber type materials, material
residues and dirt debris from industrial floors.

abrasive to the blade cutting edge. Blades can be
sharpened in the field by the use of the metal file
stored on the fixed section of the operator handle. Use
of the file in the field will not duplicate the original
blade manufacturing process, but can significantly
increase overall productivity rates versus the
continued use of a dull blade. Remove the blade from
the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER per the
procedures outlined in this manual. Clamp the blade
in a suitable vice. Use the file to sharpen the blade
with a procedure similar to that of sharpening a rotary
lawnmower blade. FIGURE 28.

OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS AND TECHNIQUES
FOR THE FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER.
CAUTION
1) The specific type and/or density of adhesives and
mastics which bond coverings to the work surface can
directly affect removal rates. Many adhesives or
mastics remain flexible in the fully cured state. These
types of materials are usually darker or black in color.
The adhesives and mastics which become dried in the
fully cured state are usually yellowish or opaque in
color. These types of materials will usually require
less effort to remove than the dark types which remain
flexible even when cured.
Failure to properly clean the interior surfaces of
the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER can result in
dried material build-up and accumulation directly
affecting bearing service life.

2) As a general rule, the lower the adhesive or mastic
density (amount) utilized to adhere the covering to the
work surface, the lower the force required to "shear"
through the bond and thus, the greater the covering
removal rate.
3) As a general rule, the thicker the adhesive or mastic

5) Typically, adhesive/mastic densities or thickness
change on the job site usually as a result of application
rates on the work surface. This, in turn directly affects
bond densities and thickness. As these factors
change, the blade angle can be adjusted with the Back
Saver™ Blade Control System to help optimize
covering removal rates.
7) Scoring blades are available to remove covering
material such as rubber-backed carpet and linoleum
from concrete and wood surfaces. The vertical ends of
the scoring blade are designed to shear the covering
and remove it in various widths as determined by the
overall blade width. FIGURE 30.
6) Keep the extension cord free and clear the the main
frame area and orbiting blade/ceramic tile ripper
