TECHNICAL INFORMATION
General description
This machine is a scrubber dryer destined for sweeping, washing and drying flat, horizontal, smooth or moderately
rough, even and obstacle-free floors.
The machine is intended for use in commercial applications, such as hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops
and offices, or for hire.
The machine must only be used indoors.
It is available in both battery and mains powered versions to meet all running time requirements.
The scrubber dryer spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration on the floor and then
scrubs it to remove the dirt. By carefully choosing the detergent and brushes (or abrasive disks) from the wide
range of accessories available, the machine can be adapted to a wide range of combinations of types of floor
and dirt.
The machine incorporates a wet vacuuming system which dries the floor immediately after washing. The drying
action is produced by the suction motor, which generates a partial vacuum in the dirty water tank. The squeegee
connected to the tank collects the dirty water.
Parts of the machine
The main parts of the machine are as follows (fig. A):
► the detergent tank (fig. A, ref. 1): contains clean water;
► the dirty water tank (fig. A, ref. 2): collects the dirty water picked up from the floor after washing;
► control panel (fig. A, ref. 3);
► head assembly (fig. A, ref. 4): the main element is the brush which distributes the detergent solution on
the floor and remove the dirt;
► squeegee assembly (fig. A, ref. 5): wipes and dries the floor by collecting the water.
► Chem Dose tank (OPTIONAL) (fig. P, ref. 1); contains the product added to the cleaning solution;
Danger zones
► Tank assembly: when using certain detergents, danger of irritation for eyes, skin, mucous membranes

is replaced on top of the detergent tank.
► Control panel: risk of injury from short circuits.
► Bottom of washing head: danger due to brush rotation.
► Rear wheels: danger of crushing between the wheel and chassis.
