3. SAFETY INFORMATIONS
3.1 BASIC RECOMMENDATIONS
☞
Carefully read the “instruction manual” before
starting, using, performing unscheduled or rou-
tine maintenance or any other work on the ma-
chine.
•
Rigorously comply with all the instructions pro-
vided in this manual and in those for the batteries
and battery chargers (with particular attention to
warnings and danger notices).
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for
injuries to persons or damage to property due to
non-compliance with the aforementioned instruc-
tions.
•
This machine must be powered only with the
safety extra-low voltage indicated on the technical
data plate.
☞
Before using the machine, make sure that each
part is in the correct position.
•
The appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowl-
edge, unless they have been given supervision or in-
struction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
•
Do not operate this machine for any other pur-
pose except for the use for which it was specifically
designed. Evaluate the type of building where it will
be utilised and rigorously comply with the current
safety regulations and conditions.
• Do not use the machine in places without ad-
equate lighting, in explosive environments, when
harmful dirt is present (dust, gas, etc.), on roads or
public passage ways and in outdoor environments
in general.
•
The machine operating temperature range is +4°C
to + 35°C; when not being used, store the machine in
a dry and non-corrosive environment within a tem-
perature range of b 10°C and + 50°C.
When using the machine under any condition the hu-
midity must range between 30% and 95%.
• Never use or vacuum liquids, gases, dry dust,
acids and solvents (e.g. paint thinners, acetone,
etc.), even if diluted, inflammables or explosives
(e.g. petrol, fuel oil, etc.); never vacuum flaming
or incandescent objects.
•
Do not use the machine on slopes or ramps
steeper than 2%; for small slopes, do not use the
machine sideways, always handle it with caution and
never move backwards. When transporting (10%
max) the machine on steeper ramps or slopes, be
very careful to avoid tipping and/or uncontrolled ac-
celerations . Use only the lowest speed! The machine
can be handled on ramps and/or steps only with the
brush head and squeegee lifted off the ground.
• Never park the machine on a slope.
☞
The machine should never be left unattended with
the motors running; it can be left unattended only
after turning off the motors, ensuring that it won’t
make any accidental movements and disconnecting
it from the electric power supply.
•
Make sure there are no other persons, and children
in particular, in the area where the machine is being
used.
• Do not use the machine to transport persons/
things or to tow objects. Do not tow the machine.
☞
Do not use the machine as a support surface for
any weight for any reason.
Do not block the ventilation and heat dispersion
openings.
•
Do not remove, modify or by-pass the safety de-
vices.
•
Always use individual safety devices to ensure op-
erator safety: aprons or safety overalls, non-slip and
waterproof shoes, rubber gloves, goggles and ear-
phones, and masks to protect the respiratory tract.
Before starting to work, remove necklaces, watches,
ties and other objects that may cause serious injuries.
•
Do not insert hands between moving parts.
☞
Do not use detergents that differ from those re-
quired and follow the instructions indicated on the
relative safety sheets. Detergents should be stored
in a place that is inaccessible to children. In case of
contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with copi-
ous amounts of water and, if swallowed, immediately
consult a physician.
Make sure that the battery charger power sockets are
connected to an efficient earthing system and that
they are protected by magnetothermal and differen-
tial circuit-breakers.
•
If you are going to equip the machine with dry
(gel) batteries, be sure the battery power indicator
on the control panel, has been set properly. Check
this procedure with your dealer.
•
Follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions
and comply with legal provisions. The batteries
should always be clean and dry to avoid surface leak-
age currents. Protect the batteries against impurities,
such as metallic dust.
•
Do not place tools on top of the batteries: they
may cause a short-circuit or an explosion.
•
Never spray water on the machine to clean it.
☞
Recovered fluids contain detergents, disinfectants,
water, as well as organic and inorganic material col-
lected during work operations: dispose of them in
accordance with current legal provisions.
