30 - Solution System
Functional Description
The solution system supplies water and detergent to the brush when cleaning the floor. The water tank is
also the main machine body There is a manual valve on the right side of the tank to close the water supply
whenever maintenance must be performed on the machine. The solution flows from the tank to the tap,
through the filter and solenoid valve (EV1) and then to the brush deck.
The detergent pump (M4), present on Detergent systems, controls the flow of detergent from the bottle
which is then transported to the flow in the main tube just before the solution enters the brush deck (see
“
Adjusting of detergent concentration in the washing water
” paragraph)
Located centrally, below the tank, there is also a hole for draining any liquid in the battery compartment
The solution flow is regulated by various timed ON / OFF cycles, according to the water flow rate regulation
(0 - 3)
The detergent pump follow different ON / OFF timings depending on flow rate set and detergent percentage
setting
The solenoid valve and detergent pump operate only with the following inputs/conditions:
• Brush function on
• Operator’s presence sensors activated
• Battery level not in condition with blinking LED
Pre Wetted
To avoid marks or lines on delicate floors, use the “pre wetted” function, which dampens the brush before
starting the operation

and the Solution button
are pressed together for more than 1 sec , the Solution Valve (EV1) output is powered at 24Vdc until
the Main button
and/or the Solution button
are released During output enabling, all other
inputs are inhibited During output enabling the Solution button LED’s are blinking
