ATTENTION:
Use only brushes supplied with the machine or the
ones indicated in the paragraph “RECOMMENDED
BRUSHES”. The use of other brushes can compromise
the security.
RECOVERY TANK
Check that the cover of the suction filter (1) is cor-
rectly secured, after rotating the levers and that the
suction motor hose (2) is correctly connected.
Verify also that the squeegee hose is correctly insert-
ed into the seats (3 and 4) and that the exhaust hose
plug (5) placed in the front part of the machine, is
closed.
DETERGENT SOLUTION TANK
The capacity of the detergent solution tank is indi-
cated in the technical data.
Open the screw plug (1) placed in the rear left part
of the machine and fill the detergent solution tank
with clean water at a maximum temperature of 50°C.
Add the liquid detergent in the percentage and con-
ditions foreseen by the manufacturer. To avoid ex-
cessive foam presence, which could cause problems
to the suction motor, use the minimum percentage
of detergent. Screw down the plug to close the tank.
ATTENTION:
Use always low foam detergent. To avoid foam pres-
ence, before starting working operation, introduce
into the recovery tank a minimum quantity of anti-
foam product.
Never use pure acid.
FLOOR CLEANING
CONNECTION OF THE BATTERIES TO THE MA-
CHINE
Plug in the batteries connector (1) to the machine
connector (2), placed in the rear part of the machine.
STARTING OF THE MACHINE
1. For machines equipped with key switch (see un-
der "OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES”), turn the key (6)
clockwise.
2. Press the brushes motor switch (5).
3. Check the battery type and the charge level on
the display (1).
4. Press the suction motor switch (3).
5. Acting upon the solution valve lever (8) adjust
the solution detergent quantity bringing the floor
uniformly wet, avoiding the leakage of detergent
from the protection. Always consider that the cor-
rect quantity of solution detergent depends on the
type of floor, dirtiness and machine speed.
Acting upon this lever, the indicator on the instru-
ment board of the open solution valve (4) will turn
on.
This model is equipped with solenoid valve. The flow
of detergent solution will be activated automatically,
once the solution valve has been opened through
the lever (8), acting upon the levers forward move-
ment (7). Releasing these levers, flow will stop auto-
matically.
6. Acting upon the brushes base lifting pedal (10)
lower the brushes base.
7. Acting upon the squeegee lifting lever (9) lower
the squeegee.
8. Activating the levers (7) the brushes will start ro-
tating transferring to the machine a forward move-
ment. The squeegee will start drying the floor.
9. During the first meters check that the detergent
solution flow is appropriate and that the squeegee
adjustment guarantees a perfect drying action.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE BRUSHES PRESSURE
Through the register (1) placed on the internal part
of the front right wheel, it is possible to adjust the
brushes pressure on the cleaned surface.
By turning the wing nut clockwise the pressure in-
creases, rotating the wing nut counterclockwise, the
pressure decreases.
This device allows a more efficient cleaning action
also on very difficult and dirty surfaces.
BRUSHES MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTION DE-
VICE (OPTIONAL)
If the machine is equipped with the amperemetric
protection device (see under "OPTIONAL ACCESSO-
RIES"), this, in case of extended overload of the
brushes motor, intervenes shutting it off. Further-
more, on the display (1) appears an alarm ”AL01”. In
case of intervention of this device, check the brushes
pressure adjustment in connection with the type of
floor to be cleaned and if necessary, reduce it.
To reset the brushes motor, turn off the brushes mo-
tor switch (5) for a few seconds and turn it on again.
OVERFLOW DEVICE
In order to avoid serious damages to the suction mo-
tor, the machine is equipped with a float that inter-
venes when the recovery tank is full, closing the suc-
tion hose and stopping the suction.
When this happens, it is necessary to empty the re-
covery tank.
1. Hold the exhaust hose placed in the front part of
the machine.
2. Take off the exhaust plug acting upon its lever
and empty the recovery tank into appropriate con-
tainers, according to the standard norms for the liq-
uid disposal.
ATTENTION:
This operation must be carried out using gloves to
protect from contact with dangerous solutions.
