Dirty and Fresh Water Tanks
The machine has a Dirty Water Tank and a Fresh Water
Tank. The filling capacity is 45/60 liters. Please do not fill
beyond that mark; water temperature must not exceed
50°C. Dirty water is fed via the suction hose into the dirty
water tank.
- Do not collect any external water.
- When work is finished both the dirty and the
fresh water tanks on principle must be drained
and rinsed in order to preclude formation of
residues.
For disposal of dirty water and lye, the legal
provisions have t o b e c o m p i l e d w i t h .
Check the in-feed filter in the tank regularly and
clean it if required.

Use detergents suitable for automatic machines
(low foaming) in order to preclude damages at
the suction turbine. We recommend our agents
for cleaning and care, which are perfectly
adopted to the machine. These products fulfil
the requirements of the Detergents Act.
How to operate the machine:
Ÿ Turn on Switch “A” the brush is rotating.
Ÿ To discharge the detergent , position the lever suitably
to achieve the desired flow of detergent.
Ÿ Lower the brush head.
Ÿ Lower the squeegee.
Ÿ Turn on switch “B” the suction turbine is running.
Ÿ As soon as the suction turbine is switched on operate
the lever to start water flow.
Ÿ The water flow can be adjusted to suite the floor.
Ÿ The water flow is maximum when the lever is in top
position.
Ÿ The water flow is minimum or to stop when the lever is
in bottom position.
Ÿ For E4545, E4550, E6050, E6050C & E6060 models
water flow is controlled by mechanical stopper.
Ÿ For E4545 Exp, E4550 Exp, E6050 Exp, E6050C Exp
& E6060 Exp models water flow is controlled by
solenoid valve.
After lowering the brush move the machine
immediately; otherwise the brush might leave
traces on the floor. Lift the squeegee during
reverse travel. When passing over dormers with
a height of more than 0.7° in =10 mm, the brush
drive must be turned off and the brush must be
lifted up.

flow of water
Ÿ It is dangerous to pass over the power supply cable
while the brush is rotating.
Ÿ Cleaning of floor areas starts from the outlet socket
and is effected stripe by stripe.
Ÿ In case of unoccupied areas it will be useful to clean at
first the border areas, passing with the machine along
those areas in counterclockwise sense.
Ÿ Cleaning of the remaining areas then should be
effected stripe by stripe, starting from the outlet
socket.
Ÿ Partially occupied areas should be subdivided into
