The manufacturer will not be held responsible for
injuries to persons or damage to property due to
non-compliance with the aforementioned
instructions.
Before using the machine, make sure that each
part is in the correct position.
The machine can only be used by personnel who
have received appropriate training, who have proven
their skills and who have been expressly assigned to
use it. To avoid unauthorised use, keep the machine in
a place that denies access to unauthorised personnel
when not being used, engage the p arking brake and
remove the key from the control panel.
Minors are prohibited from using the machine.
Do not operate this machine for any other purpose
except for the use for which it was specifically designed.
Evaluate the type of building where it will be utilised
and rigorously comply with the current safety regulations
and conditions.
Do not use the machine in places without adequate
lighting, in explosive environments, when harmful dirt
is present (dust, gas, etc.), on roads or public passage
ways and in outdoor environments in general.
The machine operating temperature range is +4°C
to + 35°C; when not being used, store the machine in
a dry and non-corrosive environment within a
temperature range of between + 10°C and + 50°C.
When using the machine under any condition the
humidity must range between 30% and 95%.
Never use or vacuum liquids, gases, dry dust, acids
and solvents (e.g. paint thinners, acetone, etc.), even
if diluted, inflammables or explosives (e.g. petrol, fuel
oil, etc.); never vacuum flaming or incandescent objects.
Do not use the machine on slopes or ramps steeper
than 10%; for small slopes, do not use the machine
sideways, always handle it with caution and never move
backwards. When transporting the machine on steeper
ramps or slopes, be very careful to avoid tipping and/or
uncontrolled accelerations. Use only the lowest speed!
The machine can be handled on ramp s and/or steps
only with the brush head and squeegee lif ted off the
ground.
Never park the machine on a slope.
The machine should never be left unattended with
the motors running; it can be left unattended only after
turning off the motors, ensuring that it won't make any
accidental movements and disconnecting it from the
electric power supply.
Make sure there are no other persons, and children
in particular, in the area where the machine is being
used.
Do not use the machine to transport persons/things
or to tow objects. Do not tow the machine.
Do not use the machine as a support surface for
any weight for any reason.
Do not block the ventilation and heat dispersion
openings.
Do not remove, modify or by-pass the safety devices.
Always use individual safety devices to ensure
operator safety: aprons or safety overalls, non-slip and
waterproof shoes, rubber gloves, goggles and
earphones, and masks to protect the respiratory tract.
Before starting to work, remove necklaces, watches,
ties and other objects that may cause serious injuries.
Do not insert hands between moving parts.
Do not use detergents that differ from those required
and follow the instructions indicated on the relative
safety sheets. Detergents should be stored in a place
that is inaccessible to children. In case of contact with
the eyes, rinse immediately with copious amount s of
water and, if swallowed, immediately consult a physician.
Make sure that the battery charger power sockets are
connected to an efficient earthing system and that they
are protected by magnetothermal and differential circuit-
breakers.
If you are going to equip the machine with dry (gel)
batteries, be sure the battery power indicator on the
control panel, has been set properly . Check this
procedure with your dealer.
Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions and
comply with legal provisions. The batteries should
always be clean and dry to avoid surface leakage
currents. Protect the batteries against impurities, such
as metallic dust.
Do not place tools on top of the batteries: they may
cause a short-circuit or an explosion.
When using battery acid, rigorously respect the
relative safety instructions. In the presence of particularly
strong magnetic fields, evaluate the possible effect on
electronic control devices.
Never spray water on the machine to clean it.
Recovered fluids contain detergents, disinfectants,
water, as well as organic and inorganic material collected
during work operations: dispose of them in accordance
with current legal provisions.
If the machine malfunctions and/or operates
inefficiently, turn it off immediately (disconnecting it from
the electric power supply or from the batteries) and do
not tamper with it.
Contact one of the manufacturer 's technical service
centres.
All maintenance or accessory replacement operations
must be carried out in environment s with adequate
lighting and only after having disconnected the machine
from the electric power supply by detaching the battery
connector.
All work on the electrical system and all maintenance
and repair operations (especially those not explicitly
described in this manual) should be carried out only by
authorised service centres or by specialised technical
personnel who are expert s in the sector and in the
pertinent safety regulations.
The machine owner can only use original
accessories and spare parts supplied exclusively by
the manufacturer since such parts are the only ones
that guarantee that the equipment will operate safely
without any problems. Do not use parts disassembled
from other machines or other kits as spare parts.
If the machine will no longer be used, remove the
batteries and dispose of them in accordance with the
eco-compatibility regulations as set forth in European
standard 91/157/EEC or deposit them in an authorised
collection centre.
To dispose of the machine, comply with the current
laws where it is used:
- disconnect the machine from the mains and clean it
after emptying any liquids;
