To disassemble the splash guard simply detach the
spring holder and pull the splash guard.
To reassemble, fix the splash guard in the brush
plate, and then hook the steel cable to one side of
the plate and the spring holder to the other side of
the brush plate.
6.9 BRUSH ASSEMBLY / DISASSEMBLY
(
!
)
Never use the machine if the brush or the pad
holder with abrasive pad is not perfectly installed.
Assembly:
Make sure that the brush plate is raised; otherwise
lift it by following the instructions provided in the
specific section.
Make sure that the ignition key on the control panel
is in OFF position.
Place the brush under the plate, taking care that
the coupling flange on the brush is under the metal
coupling of the machine.
Lower the brush plate and start the brush rotation
operating the brush motor switch and the brush op-
eration lever; the brush will couple automatically.
To assemble the pad holder follow the same proce-
dure.
(
!
)
Do not allow the length of the rows of brushes
to become lower than 1 cm.
(
!
)
Do not allow the thickness of the abrasive
disks to become less than 1 cm.
Working with excessively worn brushes or exces-
sively thin abrasive disks may damage the machine
and the floor.
Regularly check the wear on these parts before
starting to work.
Disassembly or replacement:
Make sure that the brush plate is raised; otherwise
lift it by following the instructions provided in the
specific section.
Make sure that the ignition key on the control panel
is in position OFF position.
While holding the brush with the hands under the
plate, turn it in the rotation direction while lowering
to release it from the metal coupling on the ma-
chine.
To disassemble the pad holder follow the same pro-
cedure.
6.10 FILLING AND DRAINING THE SOLU-
TION TANK
(
☞
) The temperature of the water or the de-
tergent should never exceed 50°C.
(
☞
)
Always empty the recovery tank ( Photo L - 5)
before filling the solution tank ( Photo L - 4).
To fill the tank:
- Pour into the tank the required quantity of the
chemical product, considering the percentage indi-
cated by the supplier, with reference to the full tank
capacity listed on the product sheet.
(
!
)
Use only those products suitable for the floor
and the dirt to be removed.
- Pour water in the filling opening placed in the
front of the machine ( Photo E - 2, L - 3 ).
Leave 2 cm between the filling opening and the liq-
uid level. Do not fill beyond this point!
( ) The machine was designed to be used
with non-foaming and biodegradable deter-
gents made specifically for scrubber-driers.
The use of other chemical products (such as
sodium hypochlorite, oxidizers, solvents or
hydrocarbons) may damage or destroy the
machine.
- Follow the safety regulations specified in the rel-
ative section and indicated on the detergent con-
tainer.
- Contact the machine manufacturer to obtain a
complete list of available and suitable detergents.
- Do not leave the water hose unattended and in-
sert it completely into the tank: the hose might
move and get sensitive parts of the machine wet.
Close the tank with its foam plug.
To drain:
• Unscrew the cock.
• Close the drainage plug firmly.
6.11 DRAINING THE RECOVERY TANK
The dirty water must be drained in accordance with
national regulations.
The user is completely responsible for ensuring
compliance with such rules.
After the detergent solution is finished, always
empty the recovery tank ( Photo L - 4) before fill-
ing it again.
In general, the recovery tank can be emptied when-
ever required, and even during intermediate phases
of the work cycle.
The recovery tank volume is higher than the deter-
gent solution volume, therefore a potentially dan-
gerous situation for the suction motor should never
occur. In any case, a safety floating device will stop
the suction if the dirty liquid level is too high.
( )
If water or foam starts leaking from under the
tanks for any reason, immediately turn off the suc-
tion motor and empty the recovery tank.
To drain the tank:
Drive the machine to a suitable location to drain the
dirty water and preferably near a toilet or a sewer
drain (comply with the national regulations for
waste water disposal).
Turn off the machine and remove the key from the
panel.
Detach the drain hose from the holder ( Photo B -
3, D - 5 ) and, keeping it high, unscrew the plug.
Lower the drain hose toward the selected drainage
