9.2.4 Squeegee blades: replacing
The squeegee blades collect the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare
the way for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing leaves the edge of the blade
in contact with the floor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring
it to be replaced.
Turning or replacing the blades:
• lower the squeegee by means of the corresponding lever (fig. 6, ref. 8);
• remove the squeegee (fig. 2 ref. 6) from its mount (fig. 7 ref. 2) by completely
unscrewing the two knobs (fig. 7 ref. 3)
• remove the suction hose sleeve (fig. 7, ref. 4) from the squeegee;
• use a screwdriver to unscrew the bolt (fig. 12, ref. 3 or 6);
• remove the two blade retainers (fig. 12 ref. 2 or 7) by first pushing them towards the
body of the squeegee (fig. 12 ref. 1) then extracting them;
• remove the blade (fig. 12 ref. 4 or 5);
• reuse the same blade by reversing the edge in contact with the floor until all four edges
are worn out, or replace with a new blade, fitting it onto the screws on the body of the
squeegee (fig. 12 ref. 1);
• reposition the two blade retainers (fig. 12 ref. 2 or 7) by centring the widest part of the
slots over the fixing screws on the squeegee body (fig. 12 ref. 1), then pushing the
blade retainers inwards;
• screw up the bolt (fig. 12, ref. 3 or 6).
Replace the squeegee in its support following the instructions in paragraph 6.2.
9.2.5 Fuses: replacement (battery models)
The fuses protecting the brush and suction motors are located in the fuse holder (fig. 13,
ref. 1) attached to the dirty water drum above the machine battery compartment.
To replace the fuses:
•
make sure the dirty water drum is empty and empty if necessary;
• raise the dirty water drum;
• raise the fuse holder cover and remove the fuse by unscrewing the fixing screws;
• fit a new fuse and close the fuse holder cover;
• lower the dirty water drum.
Fuse table: For the complete fuse table, see the spare parts catalogue.
Never use a fuse with a higher amperage than specified.
If a fuse continues to blow, the fault in the wiring, boards (if present) or motors
must be identified and repaired. Have the machine checked by qualified
personnel.
9.3. Routine maintenance
9.3.1. Daily operations
After each day's work, proceed as follows:
•
disconnect the machine from the power supply;
•
R models with rollers: empty the debris bin (fig. 17).
•
empty the dirty water drum and clean if necessary;
•
clean the squeegee blades and check for wear. If necessary, replace.
•
check that the suction hole in the squeegee is not blocked. If necessary remove
encrusted dirt;
•
wash the microfibre disk (ECS models)
•
Battery model: recharge the batteries according to the procedure described.
