Proceed as explained in the previous " Direct Washing"
paragraph (7.12.3) to also proceed with drying the
floor.
Never use the machine without the detergent solu-
tion: the floor might be damaged.
7.12.5 POST-SCRUBBING OPERATIONS
Close the detergent solution outlet.
After having completely dried any traces of water
on the surface, wait a few seconds and then lift the
squeegee and turn off the suction motor.
Move to a suitable location to drain the tanks;
empty and clean the tanks (see 7.10).
Turn OFF the machine and remove the ignition key
from the control panel.
If necessary, charge the battery (see the relative
section).
8 MAINTENANCE INFORMATIONS
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 main-
tenance and repair operations (especially those not
explicitly described in this manual) should be carried
out only by authorized service centers or by speciali-
zed 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 performan-
ces 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 tanks
and the machine.
Leave the plugs of the tanks open (only while the ma-
chine is not being used) so that they can dry and thus
prevent the formation of foul odors.
8.2 SOLUTION FILTER CLEANING
o clean the sol tion water filter
rocee as s ecifie in section
8.3 SUCTION HOSE
Detach the suction hose from the squeegee ( Photo
22 - D ). Now you can wash the hose and remove
any obstructions. Firmly insert the hose on the
squeegee body.
8.4 SQ UEEGEE
Do not handle the squeegee with bare hands: wear
gloves and any safety clothing needed to carry out
the operation.
Detach the squeegee from the machine and clean it
under running water using a sponge o r a b rush.
Check the efficiency and the wear on the strips in contact
with the floor.
They are designed to scrape the film of detergent and
water on the floor and to isolate that portion of the sur-
face to enhance the vacuum of the suction motor: this
ensures that the machine will dry v ery efficiently.
Working constantly in this manner tends to round or to
deteriorate the sharp edge of the strip, thus reducing
drying efficiently.
This is why the squeegee strips m ust b e r eplaced.
To replace the worn blades, follow the instructions in the
relative section.
Turn the blades around to wear down the other sharp
corners or to install new ones.
8.5 ACCESSORIES
Remove and clean the brush or the abrasive pad disk.
To avoid damaging the floor and the machine, care-
fully check if foreign matter, such as metallic parts,
screws, chips, cords or similar items, has become
jammed.
Check that the brushes are flat as they work on the sur-
face (check for any irregular wear on the brushes or on
the abrasive disks).
If necessary, adjust the slant of the action on t he floor.
Use only the accessories recommended by the manufac-
turer: other products may reduce operating safety.
8.6 MACHINE BODY
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to clean the exterior of
the machine and, if necessary, a soft brush to eliminate
tough dirt.
The machine ' s shockproof surface is rough to make it
harder to see s cratches caused during use.
However, this does not make it easier to remove tough
stains on the surface.
It is prohibited to use steam machines, hoses with run-
ning water and high-pressure cleaners.
8.7 BATTERIES
PB-Acid batteries Carry out maintenance operations in
accordance with the manufacturer' s instructions and
with all the other instructions provided in this manual.
Exposing the element plates (not completely immersed
in the acid solution) will lead to rapid oxidation and irre-
hoto parably reduce the element' s operating capacities.
An overflowing acid solution may corrode the m achine.
Use battery chargers recommended by the manufacturer
and, in any case, those that are suitable for the type of
battery to be c harged.
Always charge batteries in well-ventilated rooms:
there is an explosion risk! The use of gel or mainte-
nance-free batteries is highly recommended.
GEL batteries Carry out maintenance operations
in accordance with the manufacturer' s instructions
and with all the other instructions provided in this
manual.
Use only those battery chargers recommended by
