MACHINE PREPARATION
18. RECOVERY TANK
Make sure the recovery tank is empty, otherwise empty it completely.
Check the drainage tube cap (on the rear of the machine) is correctly closed.
ATTENTION: To avoid foam production, put a minimum quantity of antifoam
liquid in the recovery tank before starting to clean.
19. SOLUTION TANK
The recovery tank must be completely empty each time the solution tank is filled.
Remove the front-mounted hopper and check the solution filter is correctly fitted.
Check the filter cap (beneath the solution tank, at the back) is correctly closed.
20. SOLUTION TANK / DETERGENT SOLUTION (VERSIONS WITHOUT CDS)
Proceed as follows to fill the solution tank:
1. Turn the key of the master switch anticlockwise to the “0” position.
2. Engage the parking brake.
3. Remove the front-mounted hopper and check the solution filter (1) is correctly assembled.
4. Verify that the filter cover (beneath the solution tank) is correctly closed
5. Fill with clean water, at a temperature not exceeding 50C. It is possible to see the quantity in the
tank through the rear pipe.
6. The recovery tank must be completely empty each time the solution tank is filled.
The solution tank has a maximum capacity of about 48 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 necessary.
ATTENTION: 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.
In addition, you are advised to always use low foam detergents
Do not use pure acids or detergents with a stronger gradation than that
indicated on the label supplied.
ATTENTION: Protective gloves should always be worn before handling
detergents or acidic or alkaline solutions to avoid serious injury to hands.
