INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
Thank you for having chosen our machine. This floor
cleaning machine is used for the industrial and civil
cleaning, suitable for hard and not very rough floor-
ings. During its advance movement, the combined
action of the brush and the detergent solution re-
moves the dirt which is aspirated through the rear
suction assembly, giving a perfectly dry surface.
The machine must be used only for such purpose. It
gives the best performance if it is used correctly and
maintained in perfect efficiency. We therefore ask
you to read this instruction booklet carefully when-
ever difficulties arise in the course of the machine's
use.
In case of need, we ask you to contact our service
department for all advice and servicing as may prove
necessary.
