grammed work operations.
• Right advancement pedal, to start moving the
machine.
• Solution flow adjustment lever, to regulate the
quantity (maximum toward the top, minimum to-
ward the bottom) of detergent solution to be ap-
plied on the floor.
• Battery charge control, the sequence of lights
progressively turns off until the battery is dis-
charged. When the red light turns on, turn off the
brush motor, close the solution supply, finish drying
the small residual moisture and go to the battery
charging area to charge the battery. If these opera-
tions are not carried out, the machine will auto-
matically deactivate the brush motor and it will only
be possible to move the machine. In this situation if
the machine is not stopped right away, all functions
will be cut off automatically, and the machine will
have to be moved by hand.
The batteries 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 limits, turning the key
off and on or in any other manner.
When an abnormal situation occurs, such as
when the machine doesn't have enough power and
the safety devices don't trip, stop immediately: fol-
low the instructions in the troubleshooting section
and contact a specialised worker to check the dis-
charge control devices.

DIRECT
SLIGHTLY DIRTY SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in a single pass.
Prepare the machine as previously described.
Select the forward direction using the direction
lever.
Insert and turn the key.
Activate the suction motor, the brush motor and
the detergent solution supply.
Lower the brushes and the squeegee.
Use the detergent adjustment lever to regulate the
solution outlet flow (depending on advancement
speed).
Lightly press the advancement pedal and check
that all systems are working.
Fully depress the accelerator to increase the work
speed.
Adjust the maximum advancement speed and the
detergent solution flow as required.
The steering wheel is similar to a car steering
wheel: it can be used to turn the machine around
itself by steering all the way to one side. § Dur-
ing these operations, the rear of the machine
moves slightly outward: reduce the speed to avoid
brusque direction changes and impacts against
walls or other objects.
To avoid damage to the surfaces being treated, the
brush motor will stop automatically about 2 sec-
onds after the advancement pedal has been com-
SCRUBBING
OR
pletely released.
☞ Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged.
7.7.4
INDIRECT SCRUBBING OR FOR
VERY DIRTY SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in various passes.
Prepare the machine as previously described.
First set of operations:
Select the forward direction using the direction
lever.
Insert and turn the key.
Activate the brush motor and the detergent solu-
tion supply.
Lower the brushes.
Use the detergent adjustment lever to regulate the
solution outlet flow (depending on advancement
speed).
Lightly press the advancement pedal and check
that the brushes and solution feed system are
working.
Fully depress the accelerator to increase the work
speed.
Adjust the maximum advancement speed and the
detergent solution flow as required.
The steering wheel is similar to a car steering
wheel: it can be used to turn the machine around
itself by steering all the way to one side.
• During these operations, the rear of the machine
moves slightly outward: reduce the speed to avoid
FOR
brusque direction changes and impacts against
walls or other objects.
Allow the detergent solution to work on the dirt
according to what is indicated in the information
relative to the detergent used.
Second set of operations:
Follow the steps described in the previous section
"Direct Scrubbing" (7.8.3).
To avoid damage to the surfaces being treated, the
brush motor will stop automatically about 2 sec-
onds after the advancement pedal has been com-
pletely released.
When moving in reverse, the squeegee will lift
and suction will be deactivated automatically. After
changing direction (forward direction), the squee-
gee and the suction will automatically return to
their previous condition.
☞ Never use the machine without the detergent
solution: the floor might be damaged
7.7.5
POST-SCRUBBING OPERATIONS
Cut off the supply of detergent.
Lift the brush unit and turn off the brush motor.
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 (as
described in 7.4 and 7.5).
