ADJUSTING THE BRUSH HEAD BODY SIDE SPLASH GUARDS (SCRUBBING VERSION)
If the side splash guards of the brush head body are not positioned correctly they cannot do their work properly, namely convey the dirty
detergent solution towards the squeegee, therefore the height of the splash guard needs to be adjusted.
This operation can be done with the brush head body in the work position, proceeding as follows:
1. Sit on the driver’s seat.
2. Insert the key (1) into the main switch on the control panel. Bring the main switch to its "I" position by turning the key (1) a quarter turn
clockwise (
Fig.1
).
N.B.:
As soon as the machine turns on, the control board will perform a diagnostics procedure, during which the red LED indicator (2) on
the control panel (
Fig.2
) will remain on.
N.B.:
If the control board's diagnostics procedure returns a positive outcome, the red LED indicator (2) on the control panel (
Fig.2
) will
turn off, and an acoustic signal will sound indicating that the work operations may be initiated.
3. Lower the brush head body by turning the brush head control lever (3) on the rear part of the steering column (
Fig.3
).
4. Lower the squeegee body by turning the squeegee control lever (4) on the rear part of the steering column (
Fig.4
).
5. Check to make sure that the detergent solution tap is completely open. If this is not the case, adjust the lever (5) on the left-hand side of the
steering column (
Fig.5
).
6. Press the drive pedal (6) (
Fig.6
) to begin moving the machine.
N.B.:
Once the drive pedal is pressed, the brush head body and the squeegee body will begin to descend into their working positions.
7. As soon as the brush head and the squeegee have reached their working positions, perform the procedure for securing the machine (see
the section titled “
ATTENTION:
these operations must be carried out using protective gloves to avoid any possible contact with the edges or tips of metal
objects.
8. Go to the front left-hand side of the machine.
9. Open the machine's left lateral carter (14) (
Fig.16
).
10. Loosen the retention nuts (15) of the adjusting screws (16) (
Fig.17
).
11.
Adjust the height of the splashguard with respect to the floor; tighten or loosen the screws (16) until the splashguard touches the floor along
its entire length (
Fig.18
).
N.B.:
Both the front and rear of the splashguard need to be at the same height off the floor.
12. Once the adjustment has been completed, tighten the retention nuts (15).
13. Close the left lateral carter (14).
14. Repeat the operations just carried out also for the right side centre as well.
N.B.:
By decreasing the distance between the squeegee support and the floor, the rubber blades present in the squeegee's body move
closer to the floor.
N.B.:
the right-hand and left-hand knobs must be rotated the same number of times, so that the squeegee is parallel to the floor when it is
working.
N.B.:
Check the adjustment is correct by looking at the horizontal bubble gauge (9) on the squeegee body (
Fig.9
).
• Once the adjustment has been completed, engage the stopper lever (10) (
Fig.10
).
Adjusting the tilt of the squeegee body:
• Loosen the stopper knob (11) for the squeegee's tilt adjustment knob (12) (
Fig.11
).
•
To adjust the inclination of the squeegee body rubber blades with respect to the floor, tighten or loosen the knob (12) (
Fig.12
), until the
squeegee body rubber blades are bent towards the outside evenly along the entire length by about 30° with respect to the floor.
N.B.:
Figure 12 indicates the direction of rotation for tilting the squeegee towards the rear of the machine (
Fig.13
). Turn it in the opposite
direction to rotate the squeegee towards the front of the machine.
N.B.:
Check the adjustment is correct by looking at the horizontal bubble gauge (13) on the squeegee body (
Fig.14
).
• Once the adjustment has been completed, tighten the stopper knob (11) (
Fig.15
).
