6.6. Preparing the machine for work
IMPORTANT
Before starting work, wear overalls, ear protectors, non-slip waterproof shoes,
mask to protect the respiratory tract, gloves and all other personal protection
devices recommended by the supplier of the detergent used or necessitated by the
work environment.
Before starting work, proceed as follows:
• Battery models: check the battery charge (charge if necessary);
• make sure the dirty water tank (fig. A, ref. 2) is empty. If necessary, empty it;
• via the opening at the front, fill the detergent tank (fig. A, ref. 8) with a suitable
concentration of clean water and low-foam detergent. Leave at least 5 cm between the
surface of the liquid and the opening of the tank;
• mount the most suitable brushes or drive disks for the floor and work to be performed
(see paragraph 3.4);
• make sure the squeegee (fig. A, ref. 5) is firmly attached and connected to the suction
hose (fig. E, ref. 4). Make sure the back blade is not worn.
i INFORMATION
If you are using the machine for the first time, we recommend trying it on a large
obstacle-free surface first to acquire the necessary familiarity.
Always empty the dirty water tank before filling the detergent tank again.
For effective cleaning and to extend the working life of the machine, follow a few simple
rules:
• prepare the work area by removing all possible obstacles;
• begin working from the furthermost point to avoid walking on the area you have just
cleaned;
• choose the straightest possible working routes;
• divide large floors into parallel rectangular sections.
If necessary, finish off by passing a mop or rag rapidly over parts inaccessible to the
scrubber drier.
6.7. Working
After setting up the machine, proceed as follows:
• Connect the machine as follows:
- cable model: plug the machine into the mains power socket;
• lower the squeegee by means of the squeegee lever (fig. D, ref. 2);
• press the main switch (fig. C, ref. 3) (LED on);
• press the brush button (fig. C, ref. 4) (LED on)”, the suction motor and detergent flow
are also activated automatically;
• press the brush lever (fig. D, ref. 1);
• check regularly that detergent is reaching the brushes and top up if necessary;
• while working, check the quality of washing and adjust the flow of detergent to the
brushes using the detergent tap (fig. G, ref. 2).
IMPORTANT
Empty the dirty water tank each time you fill the detergent tank.
• The float switch in the dirty water tank turns suction off when the tank is full. If the
switch trips, stop work and empty the tank;
• Battery models: if the red LED (fig. C, ref. 2) starts flashing, the batteries are nearly
flat. After a few seconds, the brush and suction motor shut down to prevent draining
the batteries excessively. Charge the batteries.
