Machine Maintenance
It is highly recommended to follow these maintenance procedures:
1. After using the machine, before storing it, remove all the water from the 2 tanks. Put
some clean water inside the solution tank and drain it completely by turning the pump on
and spraying water through the foam brush accessory. This operation is useful to clean
the water system of the machine, including the pump, the couplings, and the nozzle.
2. After each use, empty the compressed air tank, spraying air only, until the tank is
completely empty.
3. Periodically clean (at least every 2 months) the water filter, removing it from the machine
and rinsing it under warm water.
4. Clean the vacuum motor filter.
5. Every 6-8 months, the machine may need to be delimed. This process is done by running
a deliming chemical through the pumping system.
6. Periodically bring the machine to a service center to check the machine and all of its
functions. Wearing parts like carbon brushes, bearings, etc. which must be replaced in
time to avoid damage to the other components of the machine can not be then covered
by warranty.
7. Every 2-3 months, drain the air tank by the valve located at the bottom of the air tank.
Condensation forms in the air tank during normal usage. To do this, unscrew the circular
cover located below the machine, locked with 2 screws. Unscrew the air tank drain cap,
without removing it completely. Screw the cap and the circular cover on again.
ATTENTION:
This operation must be done with the compressor completely empty and with
the machine switched off.
Compressor maintenance
The compressor used in the machine is oil less and therefore does not require frequent
maintenance. The air compressor is located in the lower part of the machine. If you need to
have access to it, you should open the machine body, unscrewing the 4 screws that lock the
upper cover to the lower box. Never access work on the compressor and never open the
machine before removing the electrical plug from the socket! Only qualified personnel may
perform this operation.
