Insert and turn the key.
Activate the suction motor, the brush motor and the
detergent solution supply.
Lower the brushes and the squeegee.
Use the detergent adjustment lever to regulate the
solution outlet flow (depending on advancement speed).
Press the brake pedal and release the p arking brake
lever.
Lightly press the advancement pedal and check that
all systems are working.
Fully depress the accelerator to increase the work
speed.
Adjust the maximum advancement speed and the
detergent solution flow as required.
The steering wheel is similar to a car steering wheel:
it can be used to turn the machine around it self by
steering all the way to one side. § During these
operations, the rear of the machine moves slightly
outward: reduce the speed to avoid brusque direction
changes and impacts against walls or other objects.
Use the brake to stop the machine.
To avoid damage to the surfaces being treated, the
brush motor will stop automatically about 2 seconds
after the advancement pedal has been completely
released.
When moving in reverse, the squeegee will lif t and
suction will be deactivated automatically. After changing
direction (forward direction), the squeegee and the
suction will automatically return to their previous
condition.
Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged.
7.8.4 INDIRECT SCRUBBING OR FOR VERY DIRTY
SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in various passes.
Prepare the machine as previously described.
First set of operations:
Select the forward direction using the direction lever.
Insert and turn the key.
Activate the brush motor and the detergent solution
supply.
Lower the brushes.
Use the detergent adjustment lever to regulate the
solution outlet flow (depending on advancement speed).
Press the brake pedal and release the p arking brake
lever.
Lightly press the advancement pedal and check that
the brushes and solution feed system are working.
Fully depress the accelerator to increase the work
speed.
Adjust the maximum advancement speed and the
detergent solution flow as required.
The steering wheel is similar to a car steering wheel:

operations, the rear of the machine moves slightly
outward: reduce the speed to avoid brusque direction
changes and impacts against walls or other objects.
Allow the detergent solution to work on the dirt
according to what is indicated in the information
relative to the detergent used.
Use the brake to stop the machine.
Second set of operations:
Follow the steps described in the previous section
"Direct Scrubbing" (7.8.3).
To avoid damage to the surfaces being treated, the
brush motor will stop automatically about 2 seconds
after the advancement pedal has been completely
released.
When moving in reverse, the squeegee will lif t and
suction will be deactivated automatically. After changing
direction (forward direction), the squeegee and the
suction will automatically return to their previous
condition.
Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged
7.8.5 POST-SCRUBBING OPERATIONS
Cut off the supply of detergent.
Lift the brush unit and turn off the brush motor.
After having completely dried any traces of water on
the surface, wait a few seconds and then lif t the
squeegee and turn off the suction motor.
Move to a suit able location to drain the t anks (as
described in 7.4 and 7.5).
Empty and clean the tanks (see sections 7.4 and 7.5).
Turn off the machine using the key and remove it from
the control panel.
If necessary, charge the battery (see the relative section).
8. MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
Turn the key, remove it from the control panel and
disconnect the battery from the machine wiring.
All work on the electrical system as well as 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 experts in the sector and
in the pertinent safety regulations.
Performing regular maintenance on the machine, and
carefully following the manufacturer 's instructions, is
the best guarantee for obtaining the best performances
and extended machine service life.
8.1 TANKS
Drain the two tanks as described in the relative sections.
Remove any solid dirt by filling and draining the tanks
until all dirt has been eliminated: use a washing hose
or similar tool to do this.
Water hotter than 50°, a high-pressure cleaner or
excessively powerful sprays may damage the t anks
and the machine.
Leave the covers of the t anks open (only while the
machine is not being used) so that they can dry and
thus prevent the formation of foul odours.
8.2 SUCTION HOSE
During these
Unscrew the knobs of the rear blinker holder pocket.
Detach the suction hose from the squeegee.
Detach the pocket and access the interior to pull out
the complete suction hose.
Now you can wash the hose and remove any
obstructions.
Firmly insert the suction hose inside the rear pocket,
in the special tank opening.
