FORWARD SPEED REGULATION (B versions)

The traction of this appliance is obtained by means of the brush which, working with the right weight 

distribution, is able to pull the appliance forwards. To regulate the forward speed, proceed as follows:

1. 

Adjust the forward speed by turning the knob (1) on the front of the appliance (

Fig. 1

).

N.B.

: turning the knob (1) clockwise tilts the brush forward, thus increasing the friction with the 

floor and thereby increasing the speed of the appliance.

N.B.

: turning the knob (1) counter-clockwise tilts the brush backward, thus decreasing the friction 

with the floor and thereby decreasing the speed of the appliance.

2. 

Get in the driving seat, behind the machine.

3. 

Press the main system control button (2) so it is in the “work” position (

Fig. 2

).

N.B.

: when the main system control button is functioning, the LED inside it is activated.

4. 

Press the dead man's levers (3), positioned under the control handlebar (

Fig. 3

).

5. 

Check that the adjustment carried out is as required, otherwise adjust the knob again (1).

ADJUSTING THE FORWARD MOVEMENT SPEED (BT - BTS - BTO VERSIONS)

This machine is equipped with electronically controlled traction. To regulate the potentiometer, proceed 

as follows:

1. 

Check that the knob (1) is set to minimum, if not, turn it counter-clockwise(

Fig. 1

).

2. 

Turn the main machine switch (2) to “I”, turning the key a quarter turn to the right (

Fig. 2

).

3. 

Press the dead man's levers (3), positioned under the control handlebar (

Fig. 3

).

4. 

Adjust the forward speed by gradually turning the knob (1) clockwise (

Fig. 4

).

N.B.

: the device will not start to move (either forward or backward) if the potentiometer adjustment 

knob (1) is set to minimum.

N.B.

: Forward speed can be increased by turning the potentiometer's knob (1) clockwise.

N.B.

: The appliance has two forward speeds. By pushing the dead man's levers beyond the first 

CLICK the “

SLOW

” speed is activated, continuing to push the levers beyond the second CLICK 

the “

FAST

” speed is activated.

N.B.

: Adjusting a speed, slow or fast, will imply the automatic modification of the other.

REVERSE MOVEMENT (BT - BTS - BTO VERSIONS)

This machine is equipped with electronically controlled traction. To reverse, proceed as follows:

1. 

Check that the knob (1) is set to minimum, if not, turn it counter-clockwise(

Fig. 1

).

2.  C

heck that the brush head unit is raised off the floor, pressing the pedal (2) on the back of the device 

if necessary (

Fig. 2

).

3. 

Check that the squeegee unit is raised off the floor, adjusting the lever (3) on the back of the device 

if necessary (

Fig. 3

).

4. 

Turn the main machine switch to “I”, making a quarter turn to the right with the key (4) (

Fig. 4

).

5. 

Press the “REVERSE MOVEMENT ACTIVATION - DEACTIVATION” button (5) on the control panel 

(

Fig. 5

).

6. 

Engage the dead man's levers (6) on the handlebar (

Fig. 6

) to start moving the appliance in reverse 

mode.

N.B.

: as soon as you press the button (5) on the control panel (

Fig. 5

), the control display will 

show the “REVERSE” screen (

Fig. 7

).

N.B.

: the reverse speed is lower than the forward speed to comply with current health and safety 

standards. If the potentiometer is adjusted while reversing, the adjustment of the forward speed 

will be automatically changed.

N.B.

: it is impossible to reverse if the squeegee unit touches the floor. In order to reverse, lift the 

squeegee unit from the floor using the relevant lever on the back of the appliance.

N.B.

: to disable reverse movement, press the button (5) on the control panel again (

Fig. 5

).

N.B.

: as soon as the button (5) is pressed, the acoustic signal advising that reverse function has 

been activated will sound.

EMERGENCY SWITCH (BT - BTS - BTO VERSIONS)

This device has an emergency switch, to activate it just press the button (1) on the rear of the device.

N.B.

: This command interrupts the electrical circuit between the batteries and the machine 

system.

N.B.

: After stopping and resolving the problem, turn the key to “0”, set the button (1) to the 

standard position and turn the key to “I” to resume the work.

N.B.

: As soon as the emergency button is pressed, the control display show the symbol (2) 

(

Fig. 2

) it will continue flashing until the switch is brought back to its standard position.

ECO-MODE FUNCTION (versions BT - BTS - BTO)

This appliance has an eco-mode function, which reduces the energy absorption.

To activate or deactivate the eco-mode function just press the button (1) on the instrument panel (

Fig. 1

).

When the eco-mode is active, the symbols for the working programs will change, only the contours will 

remain visible, like the example in 

Fig. 2

 where scrubbing in eco-mode symbol is shown.

ALARM SCREEN (BT - BTS - BTO versions)

If an error occurs, the control display will show the screen for the error, and it will remains visible until 

the error is resolved.

When an error occurs, do as follows:

1.  Stop the machine.

2. 

Switch  off  the  machine,  set  the  main  switch  (1)  to  “0”  by  turning  the  key  (2)  a  quarter  turn  anti-

clockwise (

Fig. 1

).

3. 

Contact the nearest service centre to explain the issue the machine is having referring the code (3) 

and the alarm designation (4) will be shown on the display (

Fig. 2

).
