6.8.1. Prewashing with brushes or pads
• start the machine by turning the key (main switch) clockwise (fig. B, ref. 3).
• adjust the detergent flow (fig. B, ref. 5);
• press the brush button (fig. B, ref. 8) (LED on);
• stop the suction motor by pressing the button (fig. B, ref. 9) (LED off);
• If the machine is fitted with the optional CHEM DOSE accessory, press the button (fig.
B, ref. 17) to turn the device on.
• begin washing.
The flow of water must be adjusted in proportion to the desired advance speed. The
slower the machine moves forwards, the less water is needed.
Persist when washing particularly dirty points to give the detergent time to perform its
chemical action detaching and suspending the dirt and the brushes time to exert an
effective mechanical action.
6.8.2. Drying
Turn the suction motor on by pressing the button (fig. B, ref. 9), then pass over the same
area washed previously. The result is equivalent to in-depth washing and subsequent
ordinary maintenance will take less time.
6.9.
Draining the dirty water
The dirty water tank drain hose is at the back of the machine on the right.
To empty the tank:
• move the machine near a drain;
• remove the drain hose (fig. H, ref. 1) from its housing;
• keeping the end of the hose as high as possible, unscrew and remove the cap;
• lower the end of the hose gradually, controlling the intensity of the flow of water by
adjusting the height from the ground;
• check the amount of dirt left in the dirty water tank and if necessary wash it out;
• close the drain hose (fig. H, ref. 1) by replacing the cap, check that it is tightly closed
and replace the hose in its housing.
You are then ready to wash and dry again.
6.10. Draining the clean water
To empty the tank:
• move the machine near a drain;
• remove the drain hose (fig. H, ref. 2) from its housing;
• keeping the end of the hose as high as possible, unscrew and remove the cap;
• lower the end of the hose gradually, controlling the intensity of the flow of water by
adjusting the height from the ground;
• when the detergent tank is empty, close the drain hose (fig. H, ref. 2) by replacing the
cap, check that it is tightly closed and replace the hose in its housing.
The water and detergent solution can also be used to wash the dirty water tank.
