MACHINE PREPARATION
15. FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK
The solution tank can be filled in two different ways:
1.
with a rubber tube, or buckets of water, using the filling nozzle (1) on the front part of the solution tank
2.
with a rubber tube, using the rubber cap (2) on the rear part of the solution tank
WARNING: make sure you keep the cap higher than the front filling nozzle
By means of the transparent tube (3) and the level notches on the rear part of the solution tank, you can
see how much water is in the tank.
16. DETERGENT SOLUTION
Fill with clean water, at a temperature no higher than 50
C. The solution tank has a maximum capacity of
about 35 litres. Add the liquid detergent to the tank in the concentration and manner indicated on the
detergent manufacturer's label. The formation of excess foam could damage the suction motor, so use
only the minimum amount of detergent that is necessary.
WARNING: Always use detergents whose manufacturer's label indicates their
suitability for scrubbing machines. Do not use acid or alkaline products or
solvents without this indication.
WARNING: Protective gloves should always be worn before handling
detergents or acidic or alkaline solutions to avoid serious injury to hands.
WARNING: always use low foam detergent. To avoid the production of foam,
before starting to clean, put a minimum quantity of antifoam liquid into the
recovery tank. Do not use pure or basic acids.
