7.13 WORK METHOD

7.13.1 PREPARATION AND WARNINGS

Remove any loose solid residue from the surface to
7 - OPERATING INFORMATIONS
be treated (using suitable tools, such as vacuum
cleaners, sweepers, etc.). It this is not done, the
solid dirt might prevent the squeegee from operat-
ing correctly, reducing drying efficiency.
Only trained personnel can drive this machine.

7.13.2 BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL CONTROLS

The sequence of lights of the battery charge control
( Photo 18 - C, B, A ) shows the battery dischar-
ging. When the red light turns on ( Photo 18 - A ),
turn off the brush motor, close the detergent solu-
tion outlet, finish drying the small residual moisture
and go to the battery charging area to charge the
battery.
!
( ) The battery may be irreparably damaged
if the residual charge level drops too low (see
the battery operating manual). Do not force
the battery discharge beyond the safety lim-
its, turning the key off and on or in any other
manner.
7.13.3 DIRECT
SLIGHTLY DIRTY SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in a single pass.
Prepare the machine as previously described and
use it as described in paragraph 7.12 .
☞
( ) Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged.
7.13.4 INDIRECT SCRUBBING OR FOR VERY
DIRTY SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in various passes.
Prepare the machine as previously described.
First set of operations:
Wash the floor as described in paragraph 7.11 with-
out drying the floor
Allow the detergent solution to work on the
dirty floor according to what is indicated in
the information relative to the detergent
used.
Second set of operations:
Proceed as explained in the previous "Direct Wash-
ing" paragraph (7.13.3) to also proceed with dry-
ing the floor.
☞
( ) Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged.

7.13.5 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).
