USER SEAT ADJUSTMENT
The proper adjustment of the driving position provides a greater sense of comfort when using the machine.
Seat backrest adjustment
: Make sure you sit upright and that your back and that your lower back and spine are at 90°. Use the lever (1) located on the left side of the seat (
Fig. 1
) to adjust the backrest of the
seat.
Driving position adjustment
: The seat should always be positioned using the pedals as a reference. Act on the lever (2) located on the lower part of the seat (
Fig. 2
) to adjust the seat sitting.
N.B.:
The distance should be adjusted so that with the pedals fully pressed to the floor the knees are slightly bent (about 120°).
N.B.:
Adjust the distance of the seat so that when pressing the brake pedal it goes as far as it can. This operation should be done with the machine running so as to pressurise the braking system.
N.B.:
If the knee is not bent enough, it is too far from the steering wheel, if however the knee is bent almost 90°then it is too close to the steering wheel.
N.B.:
The feet should be positioned keeping the heels on the footrest, the sole of the foot directly below the fingers should push the pedals.
N.B.:
The ideal driving position is that which allows you to grip the steering wheel correctly with the palms slightly lower than the shoulders. With a good grip on the steering wheel, the elbows should be
bent by about 120°. They should be at least 30 cm or 11.81 in between the middle of the steering wheel and our breastbone. In any case, this distance should be no more than 45 cm or 17.72 in.
Adjusting the armrests (optional):
The armrests should be inclined to make using the machine comfortable.
N.B.:
To adjust the armrest use the runner (3) under it (
Fig. 3
).
N.B.:
Taking the right armrest as a reference, if the wheel is turned outwards the inclination of the armrest is increased. Taking the left armrest as a reference, if the wheel is turned inwards the inclination of
the armrest is increased.
Wear the seatbelt correctly (optional):
The machine has a sub-abdominal safety device that allows the operator to be anchored to the driver's seat. To secure the safety belt, first of all you need to be sitting in the
drier's seat, take the mobile part (4) of the belt, wrap it round the abdomen and insert the mobile part () in the slit in the fixed part (5) (
Fig. 4
).
N.B.:
Adjust the horizontal part of the belt so it is as tight as possible on the pelvis. The belt should be pulled and put as low as possible on the pelvis bone, and not on the belly.

PREPARING TO WORK
Before beginning to work, it is necessary to:
1. Make sure the recovery tank is empty. If this is not the case, empty it (read “
2.
Check that the amount of detergent solution in the solution tank is sufficient for the type of work to be performed. If it isn't, top up the solution tank (see “
FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK WITH WATER
and “
”). Check the level tube (1) located near the operator's seat (
Fig. 1
).
3.
Check the rubber squeegee blades are in good working condition. If they aren't, replace them (see “
REPLACING THE SQUEEGEE BODY RUBBER BLADES
”).
4.
Check the brush is in good working condition. If it isn't, replace it (see “
REPLACING THE BRUSH HEAD BODY BRUSHES
5.
Check that the machine is off, otherwise set the main switch (2) to “0” by turning the key a quarter turn anti-clockwise (
Fig. 2
). Remove the key from the instrument panel.
6.
Unhook the tank rotation latch (3) (
Fig. 3
) and turn the recovery tank into the maintenance position.
7.
Connect the battery connector to the machine's main system connector.
ATTENTION:
This process must be carried out by qualified personnel.
8.
Rotate the recovery tank into the work position. Block the rotation with the latch (3).
9.
Check that the solution tank drainage pipe cap (4) is closed. If this is not the case, close it (
Fig. 4
).
10.
Make sure the cap of the recovery tank drainage tube (5) is closed. If it isn't, close it (
Fig. 5
).
