Acting upon this lever, the indicator on the instru-
ment board of the open solution valve (4) will turn
on.
For machines optionally equipped with solenoid
valve (see under "OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES") the flow
of detergent solution will be activated automatically,
once the solution valve has been opened through
the lever (8), acting upon the levers forward move-
ment (7). Releasing these levers, flow will stop auto-
matically.
Models equipped with the 3S system (optional), it is
necessary to press the suitable switch to activate the
detergent solution supply by choosing between the
traditional adjustment system through the solution
valve or the system of fixed optimum supply (see
under "3S SYSTEM SOLUTION SAVING SYSTEM").
6. Acting upon the brushes base lifting pedal (10)
lower the brushes base.
7. Acting upon the squeegee lifting lever (9) lower
the squeegee.
8. Activating the levers (7) the brushes will start ro-
tating transferring to the machine a forward move-
ment. The squeegee will start drying the floor.
9. During the first meters check that the detergent
solution flow is appropriate and that the squeegee
adjustment guarantees a perfect drying action.
FORWARD MOVEMENT
The traction of this machine is given through an
electronically controlled motor.
To move the machine, act upon the key if present,
or turn the switch (5), then rotate the levers drive
control placed on the handle bar, in forward you ob-
tain the forward drive, in reverse the backwards
movement is obtained. The control acts in a progres-
sive way, therefore it is possible to graduate the
speed depending on each requirement rotating the
lever whatever it is necessary. During reverse motion
the speed is reduced.
STOP
Releasing the levers drive control, the machine and
the brushes will stop.
ATTENTION:
Moving the machine backwards, make sure that the
squeegee is lifted.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE BRUSH/ES PRESSURE
Through the register (1) placed on the internal part
of the front right wheel, it is possible to adjust the
brush/es pressure on the cleaned surface.
By turning the wing nut clockwise the pressure in-
creases, rotating the wing nut counterclockwise, the
pressure decreases.
This device allows a more efficient cleaning action
also on very difficult and dirty surfaces.
BRUSH/ES MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTION DE-
VICE (OPTIONAL)
If the machine is equipped with the amperemetric
protection device (see under "OPTIONAL ACCESSO-
RIES"), this, in case of extended overload of the
brush/es motor, intervenes shutting it off. Further-
more, on the display (1) appears an alarm "AL01". In
case of intervention of this device, check the
brush/es pressure adjustment in connection with the
type of floor to be cleaned and if necessary, reduce
it.
To reset the brush/es motor, turn off and on again
the machine, by turning off and on the key switch if
present or by pressing on the switch (5).
OVERFLOW DEVICE
In order to avoid serious damages to the suction mo-
tor, the machine is equipped with a float that inter-
venes when the recovery tank is full, closing the suc-
tion hose and stopping the suction.
When this happens, it is necessary to empty the re-
covery tank.
1. Hold the exhaust hose placed in the front part of
the machine.
2. Take off the exhaust plug acting upon its lever
and empty the recovery tank into appropriate con-
tainers, according to the standard norms for the liq-
uid disposal.

ATTENTION:
This operation must be carried out using gloves to
protect from contact with dangerous solutions.
EMPTYING DETERGENT SOLUTION
To empty the detergent solution remained in the so-
lution tank:
1. Bring the machine to an appropriate place for
tanks draining.
2. Unscrew the solution tank cap (1).
3. Unscrew the exhaust plug (2).
ATTENTION:
This operation must be carried out using gloves to
protect from contact with dangerous solutions.
EMPTYING DEVICE DETERGENT SOLUTION (OP-
TIONAL)
To recover the detergent solution, it is necessary to
use the emptying device provided for the purpose
and proceed as follows:
1. Unhook the hose.
2. Open the solution valve directing the jet into a
collecting container.
3. When the operation has been completed, close
the solution valve.
Put the hose back into its position, placing it into
the spring.
ATTENTION:
This operation must be carried out using gloves to
protect from contact with dangerous solutions.
