The squeegee does not clean or suck
well
Outflow of detergent water from head
is not uniform
The drive is not working
The washing head does not go down
The batteries do not ensure the nor-
mal work time
The storage battery gets flat too fast
during use, although it has been
charged in the correct way and when
tested with a densimeter at the end
of recharging, it turned out to be uni-
formly charged
The storage battery gets flat too fast
during use, the recharging with an
electronic battery-charger is too fast
and at the end the storage battery gi-
ves the right voltage (about 2,14V for
each empty element), but it turns out
to be not uniformly charged when te-
sted with densimeter
• the edge of the rubber blades in contact
with the floor is rounded off
• there is an obstruction or damage in the
squeegee or in the tube
• the float has intervened (recovery tank
full), or is blocked by dirt or broken
• there is an obstruction in the suction tube
• the suction tube is not connected to the
squeegee or is damaged
• the suction unit motor is not fed or is faulty
• water outlet holes are obstructed
• the power fuse FU1 and/or the control fuse
FU5 have blown
• the thermal protection of the drive motor
has tripped: the motor has become overhe-
ated
• the potentiometer is faulty
• the anti-crushing microswitch is out of cali-
bration or faulty (the machine does not work
in reverse);
• the parking brake is engaged
• check the components (drive motor, drive
control unit, connectors)
• the fuse FU5 has blown
• the head descent actuator is disconnected
or broken
• the poles and charging clips of the batteri-
es are dirty and oxydized
• the electrolyte level is low
• the battery-charger does not work or is
unsuitable
• there are considerable differences in den-
sity between the various elements of the
battery
• the machine is working with a too high
pressure on the brush
• the storage battery is new and does not
give 100% of its expected capacity
• the machine is used at its maximum ca-
pacity for continuous periods and the auto-
nomy is not sufficient
• the electrolyte has evaporated and does
not cover the plates completely
• the storage battery, already filled with acid
by the Manufacturer, has been stored for a
too long time before being recharged and
used for the first time

• replace the rubber blade
• remove the obstruction and repair the
damage
• empty the recovery tank or make the
necessary repairs to the float
• free the tube from the obstruction
• connect or repair the tube
• check that the motor power supply con-
nector is connected to the main wiring in
the right way and that the protection fuse
has not blown; in the second case repla-
ce the motor
• clean holes
• check and remove the causes that
made the fuse blow, then replace it
• stop the machine and switch it off, let-
ting it cool down for at least 45'
• replace it
• calibrate or replace
• release the brake
• have the faulty component replaced
• check and remove the causes that
made the fuse blow, then replace it
• have the connection restored or the ac-
tuator replaced
• clean and grease the poles and clips,
recharge the batteries
• add distilled water topping up all ele-
ments according to the instructions
• see instructions relative to the battery-
charger
• replace the damaged battery
• reduce pressure on the brush
• it is necessary to "run-in" the storage
battery by 20-30 charges and discharges
to obtain maximum performance
• use, if possible, storage batteries with
larger capacity or replace the storage
batteries with others already charged
• add distilled water, topping up all ele-
ments until the plates are covered and
recharge the storage battery
• if the recharging with a normal storage-
charger is not effective, it is necessary to
carry out a double recharging consisting
in:
- a slow recharging of about 10 hours
with a current equal to 1/10 of the rated
capacity expressed in 5 hours (ex.: for a
storage battery of 100Ah(5), the current
should be 10A, realized by a manual
battery-charger);
- one-hour pause;
- charging with a normal battery-charger
