4.7. OPERATION
The machine I115SS is designed for sweeping and scrubbing floors. To ensure efficient cleaning, carry out
the following operations: actuate the sweeping centre roller and side brush control lever and actuate the
sweeping unit suction control lever. After activating the unit, specific experience will help you choose the right
type of scrubbing brush and detergent and determine whether or not a double cleaning cycle is necessary.
To carry out wet scrubbing, the distributor levers should be operated to: lower the squeegee, control the
scrubbing brushes, turn on the solution dispensing tap (and adjust the quantity of water) and start the
effluent suction motor (by pressing the switch).
After completing scrubbing operations, before drying completion, the water tap should be turned off as this is
independent from the forward travelling foot control. If the floor is very dirty, a double cleaning cycle is
advisable. Control initial sweeping followed by scrubbing with the squeegee in its raised position and the
scrubbing brushes in their working position; after starting the brushes and turning on the water tap, the first
cleaning cycle will be performed over a surface of a few dozen square metres. The cleaning solution must be
left on the floor to dissolve dirt by acting as a solvent until it is collected during the second cleaning cycle.
The second cleaning cycle must be performed with lowered brushes, tap turned on and the squeegee in
contact with the floor (suction switch activated).
During wet scrubbing, the machine can wash outside of its footprint, too, by causing the plate to travel out to
the right. This function is also used for brush changing.
Motor-driven machines should always work at 3/4 of the highest rpm, to ensure that
brushes and motors work correctly.
N.B.:
Before carrying out any operation, check that the guards are in their design position and
well secured.
