4.6. OPERATION
Scrubbing operations are highly critical and specific experience will help you choose the right type of
scrubbing brush and detergent and determine whether or not a double cleaning cycle is necessary.
To perform the scrubbing operation, start suction and lower the squeegee by pressing the special key; when
the machine first moves forwards, the brush plate will be automatically lowered to the floor. Brush rotation
will start simultaneously. As soon as the machine stops, after a delay of approximately 5 seconds, the brush
plate will be lifted and the brush rotation will stop. Adjust the solution flow rate via the special lever.
After scrubbing completion, before drying completion, turn the water tap off.
When the brush motors stop, the solenoid valve is operated to cut off the solution flow. In this way, it will not
be possible to accidentally allow all the solution to leak out to the floor.
If a floor is very dirty, a two-step cleaning action is recommended - including a first step with the squeegee in
its raised position and the scrubbing brushes in their working position; after starting the brushes and
operating the water lever, the first cleaning cycle will be performed over a surface of a few dozen square
metres. The cleaning solution must be left on the floor to dissolve dirt by acting as a solvent until it is
collected during the second cleaning cycle. The second cleaning cycle must be performed with lowered
brushes, water lever turned off and the squeegee in contact with the floor (suction switch activated).
