Fimap MAGNA - Emptying the Recovery Tank; Emptying the Debris Hopper (Sweeping Version); Cleaning the Squeegee Body; Cleaning Brush Head Brushes (Scrubbing Version)

DRAINING THE RECOVERY TANK
Proceed as follows to empty the recovery tank:
1. Remove the drainage hose of the recovery tank from the clamps; it is located at the rear of the machine (Fig. 1).
2. Bend the end of the drainage tube in order to create a choke and prevent the content from coming out (Fig. 2), then position the tube on the
discharge surface, unscrew the cap, and gradually release the tube.
3. Repeat the operations in reverse order to reassemble all the parts.
EMPTYING THE DEBRIS HOPPER (SWEEPING VERSION)
The thorough cleaning of the debris hopper ensures better oor cleaning performance. To empty the debris hopper, proceed as follows:
1. Open the machine's left lateral carter (1) (Fig. 3).
2. Release the debris hopper locking pin (2) (Fig. 4).
3. Use the handle (3) to extract the debris hopper (Fig. 5) and empty it.
4. Clean the inside with a jet of water, and use a brush to remove any residual impurities if necessary.
5. Proceed in the opposite order to reassemble all the parts.
CLEANING THE SQUEEGEE BODY
The careful cleaning of the whole vacuum unit ensures better drying and cleaning of the oor as well as a longer suction motor life. To carry out
the cleaning of the squeegee body, proceed as follows:
1. Extract the vacuum hose (4) from the vacuum nozzle on the squeegee body (Fig. 6).
2. Completely unscrew the knobs (5) on the squeegee body pre-assembly (Fig. 7).
3. Remove the squeegee body from the slits in the squeegee connector (Fig. 8).
4. Thoroughly clean the squeegee body vacuum chamber with a jet of water, and then with a damp cloth (Fig. 9).
5. Thoroughly clean the squeegee body rear rubber blade (6) with a jet of water, and then with a damp cloth (Fig. 10).
6. Thoroughly clean the squeegee body front rubber blade (7) with a jet of water, and then with a damp cloth (Fig. 11).
7. Thoroughly clean the vacuum nozzle with a jet of water, and then with a damp cloth.
8. Proceed in the opposite order to reassemble all the parts.
CLEANING THE BRUSH HEAD BRUSHES (SCRUBBING VERSION)
Careful cleaning of the brush guarantees better cleaning of the oor as well as a longer brush head gearmotor lifespan. To clean the brush,
proceed as follows:
1. Open the machine's left lateral carter (1) (Fig. 3).
2. Remove the left splashguard casing (8), remembering beforehand to move the xing anchors (9) on the brush head body into the
maintenance position (Fig. 12).
3. Press the brush locking pin (10) (Fig. 13).
4. Keeping the pin (10) pressed, turn the brush clockwise until it is released (Fig. 14).
5. Turn until the button is pushed towards the outside of the coupling spring and is locked into place.
6. Clean the brush under a stream of running water to remove any impurities from its bristles. Check the wear status of the bristles and replace
the brushes if they are excessively consumed (the bristles' protrusion must not be less than 10 mm; this distance is indicated on the brush
by the yellow band). Read the paragraph “ASSEMBLING THE BRUSH HEAD BRUSHES (SCRUBBING VERSION)” when replacing the
brushes.
7. After checking to make sure that the brush is clean, reassemble it and move on to the one on the right hand side.
N.B.: you are advised to invert the right and left-hand brushes every day.
N.B.: the image in Fig. 14 indicates the direction of rotation for uncoupling the left brush; the right brush must be turned in the opposite
direction.
ATTENTION: if the brushes are not new however, and have deformed bristles, it is better to reassemble them in the same position
(the right-hand one on the right, and the left-hand one on the left), to prevent the di󰀨erent inclination of the bristles producing an overload
on the brush motor as well as excessive vibrations.
CLEANING THE BRUSH HEAD BRUSHES (SWEEPING VERSION)
Careful cleaning of the brush guarantees better cleaning of the oor as well as a longer brush head gearmotor lifespan. To clean the brush,
proceed as follows:
1. Open the machine's left lateral carter (1) (Fig. 3).
2. With the brush head in its raised position, turn the knobs (11) that hold the left lateral carter (12) in place anti-clockwise (Fig. 15).
3. Remove the left lateral carter (12) (Fig. 16).
4. Extract the brush from inside the tunnel (Fig. 17). Clean the brush under a stream of running water to remove any impurities from its bristles.
Check the bristles. If they are excessively worn, replace the brushes (the bristles should protrude by at least 10mm). Read the paragraph
“FITTING THE BRUSH HEAD BRUSHES (SWEEPING VERSION)” for replacing the brushes.
5. After checking to make sure that the brush is clean, reassemble it and move on to the one at the rear.
