Operation
Wet scrubbing (basic cleaning)
If you do not want to vacuum the floor dry
in the same working procedure because
you want the solution to soak into the dirt,
for example, activate this program.
Wet floors are a potential risk for
slipping! Ensure to provide the
corresponding information and
warning signs.
• Press the “Button for rotary
brush drive” button (Fig. 15/9)
on the left-hand operating
panel.
Various functions can be switched on or off
with the following buttons according to the
conditions at the location of use:
• Reduce solution quantity (Fig. 22/1)
• Increase solution quantity (Fig. 22/3)
• Solution on/off (Fig. 22/2)
• Increase brush pressure (Fig. 22/4)
Vacuuming dry
• Press the “Button for squee-
gee and suction turbine” on
the left-hand operating panel.
Check whether the floor is suf-
ficiently dry at regular intervals,
otherwise people could slip. If the
floor is excessively wet, check
the vehicle for leaks and that
the sealing strips are in a good
condition. If the sealing strips are
damaged, change them; refer to
Section 5.8.4.
Vacuuming with the hand-held suction
hose
The hand-held suction hose is an optional
accessory.
Vacuuming with the hand-held suction
hose only works when the operator is not
seated on the driver’s seat (seat contact
switch is not actuated).
Always apply the parking brake
before getting out of the vehicle!
• Press the “Button for squee-
gee and suction turbine” on
the left-hand operating panel.
The squeegee remains raised.
Useful tips for cleaning
• Sweep the floor before starting wet
cleaning. This not only improves the
cleaning effect but also reduces the
vehicle‘s liability to wear.
• The floor should be treated twice in
the case of particularly dirty floors or to
remove wax (basic cleaning).
- During the first cleaning process,
the floor is scrubbed with a cleaning
agent dosage appropriate to the de-
gree of soiling, whereby the squee-
gee is raised.
- Let the cleaning solution work into
the floor for 5 to 10 minutes accord-
ing to the manufacturer’s information.
- Then scrub the floor again with the
squeegee lowered.
• Observe the correct dosage of the
cleaning agent. Information on dos-
age is provided on the cleaning agent
container.
• Use the manufacturer’s information
