FORWARD AND BACKWARD MOVE-
MENT
It is recommendable to always carry out
the mere transfer of the machine in mode
(BREAK WASHING).
To proceed to activate the movement of
the machine:
1. Sit on the seat.
2. Turn the key switch (5) clockwise to
switch on the machine.
3. Check the charge level of the batteries
on the display (1).
4. Release the parking brake. If the brake
was applied, the signal lamp (17) would
be switched on (see under paragraph
"EMERGENCY-PARKING BRAKE").
5. Bring the selector (12) in central posi-
tion (BREAK WASHING) to carry out the
mere transfer of the machine. In fact, in
this mode the washing functions of the ma-
chine are not working and only the traction
system functions.
6. Select the driving direction with the
selector (8).
7. Press the accelerator pedal placed on
the right side to start the machine.
8. Adjust the driving speed in forward
choosing the slow one (at the maximum
you can reach 2.8 mph 4.5 km/h) or, press-
ing the same selector (9) upwards, the
faster one (at the maximum you can reach
4.3 mph 7 km/h) can be obtained.
In backward movement, when the machine
is moving, an intermittent warning device is
activated.
9. The machine is equipped with an auto-
matic system that reduces the speed when
the drive direction is changed. The speed
reduction is higher as the curve is sharper.
The speed returns again normally as soon
as the machine gets out from the curve
and it runs along straight paths.
HORN
The machine is equipped with a horn
which is activated pressing the push button
(6).

WORKING BRAKE
The machine is equipped with a hydrau-
lic braking system that acts on the rear
wheels.
To brake it is sufficient to press the pedal
placed at the left side of the steering col-
umn while releasing the accelerator pedal.
EMERGENCY-PARKING BRAKE
In case of an emergency pull the lever
of the emergency and parking brake (1)
placed on the left side of the seat.
On the instrument board the signal lamp
(17) comes on which signals that the park-
ing brake is applied.
To release the parking brake press the but-
ton (2) placed at the final part of the brake
lever (1) and simultaneously lower it to the
end.
AUTOMATIC SQUEEGEE LIFTING
WHEN GOING BACKWARDS
When selecting the backwards movement
the squeegee is brought automatically to
the upper position. It will then lower again
in the following forward movement.
This happens both in automatic and in
manual mode in order to protect the integ-
rity of the squeegee.
