REGULATING THE DETERGENT
To regulate the detergent, proceed as follows:
1. Verify that the quantity of detergent solution in the solution tank
is suitable for the type of work you wish to carry out, otherwise fill
the solution tank (see the paragraph “
FILLING THE SOLUTION
TANK
”).
2.
Check that the brush head is resting on the floor.
3. Activate the appliance using the main switch (1) (
Fig.1
).
4. By pressing on the dead man's lever the appliance starts to work.
5.
During the first few metres, press the pump command button (2)
to regulate the flow of detergent onto the brush (
Fig.2
).
By pressing the button (2) on the control display(
Fig.2
), a horizontal
line will appear. This line is made up of three positions (
Fig.3
) and, as
you continue to press the button, small rectangles will appear. There
are three possible adjustments which can be made to the detergent
solution flow.
If the display only shows the horizontal line, no detergent solution is
being released (
Fig.4
). This mode is used when the floor is already
wet or in general when the chemical action of water and detergent
solution is not necessary.
For each press of the button (2), the quantity of solution released will
increase by one level. The quantity of solution released can be set to
three successive levels. Once the maximum level has been reached
(
Fig.3
), a further press on the button will return you to level 0 (no
detergent solution).
ATTENTION:
Passing from one step to another is a
continuous cycle - it is not possible to go back except by
continuing to the end of the scale and starting again from
zero.
ATTENTION:
By holding down the button (2), the pump flow
is brought back to zero
(
Fig.4
)
.
ATTENTION:
If the machine is switched off via the main
switch, the flow of detergent will return to step-01.
OVERFLOW DEVICE
The appliance is
NOT
equipped with an overflow device, because
the volume of the recovery tank is greater than the capacity of the
solution tank. In extraordinary cases, there is a mechanical device
(float) beneath the vacuum lid that, when the recovery tank is full,
shuts off the air to the vacuum motor intake to protect it; the sound of
the vacuum motor will then be deeper.
If this is the case, proceed as follows:
1. Release the dead man's lever (1) (
Fig.1
) to disable the brush
motor and the pump. The vacuum motor will also stop working
after a determined lapse of time.
2. As soon as the vacuum motor switches off, de-activate the
device, using the main switch (2) (
Fig.2
).
3.
Lift the squeegee from the floor.
4. Lock the control handlebar, push the steering column control stop
lever (3) in the direction indicated by the arrow (
Fig.3
).
The appliance must not be
transported or parked in its idle
position when the solution tank
and recovery tank are full.
