RootsScrub E Series (230V/50Hz)
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.
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 single
working areas, within reach of the power supply cable.
Ÿ Within a short time, the operator will learn how to avoid
unnecessary inconveniences caused by the cable.
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.

MACHINE OPERATION
Draining of Fresh water tank
The tank requires rinsing at regular intervals.
Ÿ The water level hose is used to drain the fresh water.
At the end of cleaning
Ÿ Stop the machine and lift the brush head.
Ÿ Lift the squeegee.
Ÿ Drain and rinse the dirty water tank (refer to section "Dirty
and Fresh Water Tanks" )
Ÿ Clean the sealing strips at the squeegee.
Ÿ Check the strainer upstream of the intake opening in the fresh
water tank; clean if required, as otherwise the suction
efficiency will be affected.
The machine must not be cleaned by water jet or high
pressure cleaning equipment, as this will endanger its
proper working function.
Draining of Dirty water tank
When work is completed, the dirty
water tank has to be drained and
rinsed.
Ÿ The hose used to drain the dirty water.
Procedure for draining tanks
Ÿ Unclamp the drain hose from the hose clamp.
Ÿ Lower the tip of the drain hose to the floor
level
Ÿ After draining the water completely, clamp the hose in the
hose clamp as shown in fig.
Remove the hose
from this clamp to
drain the water.
