MACHINE PREPARATION
ATTENTION: always use low foam detergent. To avoid the production of foam,
before starting to clean, put a minimum quantity of anti-foam liquid into the
recovery tank. Do not use pure acids.
21. SOLUTION TANK / DETERGENT SOLUTION (VERSIONS WITH 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 cap of the front-mounted hopper (1) and check the solution filter 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.
The solution tank has a maximum capacity of about 48 litres.
6. The recovery tank must be completely empty each time the solution tank is filled.
7. Unscrew the cap (2) of the canister in the compartment (in front of the batteries) and fill it with
liquid detergent in the manner indicated on the label supplied with the machine. Check the screw
cap is well closed, to avoid any liquid leaking out while the machine is being used.
To regulate the water/detergent mixture, carefully read the “REGULATING THE DETERGENT WITH
THE CDS SYSTEM” paragraph
ATTENTION: The DS automatic dosing system is designed to work with any liquid detergent. For this
reason, the percentage of detergent in the solution is subject to a maximum error of 5% compared with
the nominal value selected.
WARNING: The dosing system is suitable for frequent maintenance cleaning.
Acid or alkaline maintenance detergent tank be used with pH values between 4
and 10 and that do not contain: oxidising agents, chlorine or bromine,
formaldehyde, mineral solvents.
The detergents used must be suitable for use with scrubbing machines.
Wash the circuit with water after use if the system is not used daily. The system
is excludable. In case of sporadic use of detergents with pH between 1-3 or 11-
14, use the scrubbing machine in the traditional way by adding the detergent in
the clean water tank and excluding the dosing circuit.
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.
