The drain hose of the recovery tank is located at the rear left side of the machine.
To empty the above-mentioned tank:
► take the machine next to a drain;
► stop the machine, turn the main switch off (Fig. 8, ref. 13) to disable all the machine’s fun -
ctions; engage the parking brake using the pedal provided (Fig. 8, ref. 12);
► lift the lid on the dirty water tank (fig. 15, ref. 1) ;
► detach the drain hose (fig. 15, ref. 2) from its seat, holding it in correspondence with the
fixing spring (fig. 15, ref. 3) and pull it horizontally;
► keeping the hose end as much high as possible, take off the drain cock (fig. 15, ref. 4) from
the hose by unscrewing it;
► lower the hose end gradually, checking the intensity of the jet of water with reference to its
height from the ground;
► check the amount of residual dirt in the recovery tank and wash it inside, if necessary. To
facilitate the cleaning and total drain, it is better to unhook it from the solution tank and lift it;
► when the dirty water has been totally drained, lower the recovery tank (if it has been pre -
viously lifted) and hook it again to the solution tank;
► close the dirty water tank lid (fig. 15, ref. 1), making sure it is tightly closed;
► close the drain hose (fig. 15, ref. 4) with the cock (fig. 15, ref. 2) screw-tightening it; check
that it is perfectly closed and refit the hose in its housing.
WARNING
While washing the recovery tank never remove the suction filter (fig. 18, ref. 2) from its seat
and never direct the jet of water towards the filter itself.
Now it is possible to proceed with a new washing and drying action.
