point.
The emptying operation can be interrupted quickly
and whenever required just by raising the drain
hose.
Check how much dirt is still in the tank and, if nec-
essary, wash it inside through the inspection hole (
Photo M - 2).
Fully tighten the drain hose with the screw plug and
hang it on the support behind the machine. The
drain hose plug must be airtight, otherwise the sub-
sequent pressure loss will reduce drying efficiency.
6.12 SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USE
OF MODEL KF 45E
The KF 45E machine may be turned on only if the
voltage indicated on the tag corresponds with the
available voltage and that the electrical outlet is
grounded (earthed).
Do not damage the feed cable; do not crush or pull
on it.
Do not run over the feed cable with the machine.
The cable could wind up in moving parts causing a
short circuit.
( ) ATTENTION !!! - The KF 45E machine has
parts, which are connected to the current;
contact with these could cause grave injuries
or even death.
- Before executing any type of operation on the ma-
chine always disconnect it from the electrical
source.
- Never touch electric cables that are defective or
worn.
- Before gaining access to the electrical system it is
always necessary to disconnect the machine from
the electrical source.
- In the case of defective, damaged, or cracked
electric cables, replace immediately with authentic
replacement parts.
- The network of connections must be protected
from water spray.
- The patch cord for the connection of the machine
to the mains power must conforms to current safety
rules.
- The electrical system to which the machine is con-
nected must be equipped with a cutout box.
- It is absolutely forbidden to use the machine in
proximity to swimming pools or stretches of water.
( ) EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
In case of emergency:
- Immediately disconnect the machine from
the power mains.
- Immediately apply proper first-aid.
If an accident should occur the machine must not
be put into operation until a technician authorized
by the manufacturer has examined it.

6.14 WORK METHOD
6.14.1 PREPARATION AND WARNINGS
Remove any loose solid residue from the surface to
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.
6.14.2 BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL CONTROLS
. When the red light in the battery power test turns
on ( Photo C - 1 ), turn off the brush motor, close
the detergent solution outlet, finish drying the small
residual moisture and go to the battery charging
area to charge the battery.
!
(
) The batteries may be irreparably dam-
aged 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.
