BRAKING CONTROL
The machine has an encoder to help braking and also a mechanical brake.
• If the machine is moving and the accelerator pedal (
Fig.19
) is released, the machine brakes, decelerating gently until it stops the encoder. Only
when the encoder has stopped is the electric brake engaged.
• If the machine is moving and the brake pedal (
Fig.20
) is pressed, the machine brakes according to the braking force of the mechanical system.
Only when the encoder has stopped is the electric brake engaged.
CAUTION
:
The electro-brake on the machine only serves as a parking brake.
SOLUTION TANK CAPACITY LOW
The machine is fitted with an electronic device (float) located inside the solution tank. When the tank is empty, it activates the solution tank float
indicator light on the control panel (
Fig.21
). In this instance, take the machine to the maintenance area and fill the solution tank with clean water
(see “
FILLING THE TANKS
”).
ATTENTION:
Every time the solution tank is filled, it is good practice to drain the recovery tank and both the settling tanks.
WORK MODE WITHOUT DETERGENT SOLUTION RECYCLING
The machine can also be moved without activating the detergent solution recycling function; to use the machine in the following manner, you must:
1. Sit on the driver’s seat.
2. Insert the key into the main switch on the control panel. Set the main switch to "I" by turning the key a quarter turn clockwise (
Fig.1
).
N.B.
: As soon as the machine is switched on, the control board will carry out diagnostics on the machine; the buzzer will only give the signal
that work can be started if the outcome of this is positive.
3. Activate the “F3” function, keeping the button on the working programs display pressed down for at least ten seconds (
Fig.2
).
4. Wait for the program activation cycle to be completed.
N.B.
: when phase F3 is active, the message “F3 EN” will appear on the work display.
5. Activate the “F2” work function by moving the dedicated switch on the control panel to the “I” position (
Fig.3
).
N.B.:
if the function is active, the corresponding green LED will be illuminated.
N.B.
: when the F2 working phase is active, the words “F2 ON” will appear on the work display with a bell symbol in the upper part.
6.
The machine will now work at its maximum efficiency level until the batteries run down and the detergent solution in the solution tank runs out.
