Disconnect the machine from the power supply (depending on the model, unplug from the mains or disconnect
the connector from the battery wiring).
Battery models: charge the batteries completely before storing them. During long periods of inactivity, you should
charge the batteries regularly (at least once every two months) to keep them constantly at maximum charge.
IMPORTANT
If you do not charge the batteries regularly, they may be irrevocably damaged.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND CHARGING
DANGER
Do not check the batteries by sparking.
The batteries give off flammable fumes. Put out all fires and hot embers before checking or topping up
the batteries.
Perform the operations described above in a ventilated room.
To avoid permanent damage to the batteries, do not run them down completely.
Remember that when the corresponding red light (fig. C, ref. 2) flashes on the control panel, you must charge
the batteries.
Charging procedure
► if the machine does not have an on-board charger (CT46), connect the external battery charger connec -
tor to the battery wiring connector (fig. H, ref. 2).
► if the machine has an on-board battery charger, connect the on-board battery charger power cable (fig.
H, ref. 1).
IMPORTANT
In the case of gel batteries, use a charger specific for gel batteries only.
► Charge the batteries as described in the battery charger manual;
► at the end of charging, disconnect the connectors;
► reconnect the battery wiring connector to the machine connector (machine with external battery char -
ger).
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Never perform any maintenance operations without first unplugging the machine from the mains (cable
version) or disconnecting the fuse on the battery bridge (battery version).
In cable models, the operator must be able to verify from any position that the machine remains unplug -
ged from the mains socket while maintenance is being carried out.
Maintenance of the electrical circuit and all other operations not expressly required by this manual must
be performed by specialised personnel only, in compliance with current safety legislation and as descri -
bed in the maintenance manual.
Maintenance - General rules
Performing regular maintenance according to the Manufacturer’s instructions improves performance and extends
the working life of the machine.
When cleaning the machine, respect the following:
► avoid the use of high pressure washers. Water could penetrate the electrical compartment or motors
leading to damage or the risk of short circuit;
► do not use steam to avoid the heat warping plastic parts;
► do not use hydrocarbons or solvents as they could damage the cowling and rubber parts.
Routine maintenance
Float switch and detergent tank filter: cleaning
► Remove the dirty water tank cap and clean the float switch (fig. I, ref. 1). Make sure it runs freely on the
pin.
► clean the detergent tank filter (fig. N) by unscrewing the cap and extracting the filter assembly.
