cycles, providing for the recharge 
only when the red signal of 
discharged batteries is activated.  
In fact, an extended series of 
charging cycles carried out when 
the batteries still have a residual 
charge, causes a battery to 
deteriorate, shortening the battery 
life. 

NOTE:

 Never leave batteries 

completely discharged even if the 
machine is not used. 
 
During the recharging operation a 
device is activated that restricts the 
machine from functioning. 
 
Bring the machine on a level 
surface near a suitable outlet. 
Switch off the main switch (1). 
Connect the main cable supplied 
with the machine both to the 
machine and to the outlet socket as 
indicated in the figure. 
At the end of the charging phase 
take off the main cable. 
 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

ATTENTION: 

Never charge batteries with a non-
suitable charger. Strictly follow the 
instructions supplied by the battery 
and charger manufacturer. 
 

Battery disposal 

It is mandatory to hand over 
exhausted batteries, classified as 
dangerous waste, to an authorized 
institution according to the local 
laws. 
 

Recovery tank 

Check that the cover of the 
vacuum filter (19) is correctly 
secured, after rotating the levers 
(18). Furthermore, check that the 
squeegee hose is correctly seated 
in its seat (17). 
 

 

 

Solution tank 

The capacity of the solution tank is 
indicated in the technical data. 
Remove the solution tank cap (15) 
placed in the top part of the 
machine and fill the solution tank 
with clean water at a maximum 
temperature of 122°F (50°C). Add 
liquid detergent in the percentage 
and conditions recommended by 
the manufacturer. To avoid 

excessive foaming, which could 
cause problems to the vacuum 
motor, use the minimum 
percentage of detergent. Screw 
down the cap to close the tank. 
 

 

 

 

ATTENTION: 

Use always low foam detergent. 
To avoid excessive foaming, 
before starting working operation, 
add into the recovery tank a 
minimum quantity of anti-foam 
product. 
Never use pure acid.
