6.6. Filling the water/detergent tank
Before commencing the operation of filling the water/detergent tank, unscrew the cap (fig.
2, ref. 8) and open the tap (fig. 2, ref. 9) on the hose (fig. 2, ref. 10). This sequence of
steps will allow air to escape from the hose/tank and, during the course of the filling
operation, enable inspection of the level of water/detergent in the tank directly from the
.
exposed hose
Fill the tank (fig. 2, ref. 7), by way of the opening provided at the front, with clean water
and low-foam detergent mixed in a suitable concentration: leave at least 5 cm between
the surface of the liquid and the opening of the tank. With the filling operation completed,
close the tap (fig. 2, ref. 9) and retighten the cap (fig. 2, ref. 8).
6.7. Preparing the machine for work
Before starting work, wear overalls, ear protectors, non-slip waterproof shoes,
mask to protect the respiratory tract, gloves and all other personal protection
devices recommended by the supplier of the detergent used or necessitated by the
Proceed as follows before starting work.
check the battery charge (recharge if necessary);
lower the head by means of the pedal (fig. 5, ref. 9);
make sure the dirty water drum (fig. 2, ref. 2) is empty. If necessary, empty it;
fill the water/detergent tank.
mount the most suitable brushes, drive disks or rollers for the floor and work to be
performed (see paragraph 3.4);
make sure the squeegee (fig. 2, ref. 6) is firmly attached and connected to the suction
hose (fig. 6, ref. 4). Make sure the back blade is not worn.
If you are using the machine for the first time, we recommend trying it out on a
large obstacle-free surface first to acquire the necessary familiarity.
Always empty the dirty water tank before filling the detergent tank again.
For effective cleaning and to extend the working life of the machine, follow a few simple
rules:
prepare the work area by removing all possible obstacles;
begin working from the furthermost point to avoid walking on the area you have just
cleaned;
choose the straightest possible working routes;
divide large floors into parallel rectangular sections.
If necessary, finish off by passing a mop or rag rapidly over parts inaccessible to the
scrubber drier.
6.8. Working
After setting up the machine, proceed as follows:
lower the squeegee by means of the corresponding lever (fig. 5, ref. 8);
press the brush button (fig. 5, ref. 3) (LED on), the suction motor starts up
automatically;
press the suction button (fig. 5, ref. 2) if you want to disable detergent suction;
press the brush/drive lever (fig. 5, ref. 7);
Models with mechanical drive: When the brush motor is enabled and the drive lever is
pulled, the motor which turns the brush and moves the machine starts up. A special
mechanical drive device uses the friction between the brush and floor to generate a
