Warning, the machine must be kept indoors at all times.
Never use or pick up flammable liquids or explosives (e.g. petrol, fuel oil, etc), flammable
gases, dry dusts, acids and solvents (e.g. paint solvents, acetone etc) even if diluted.
Never pick up flaming or incandescent objects.
Never use the machine on slopes or ramps of more than 2%. In the case of slight slopes,
do not use the machine transversally, always manoeuvre with care and do not reverse.
When transiting steeper ramps or slopes, take the utmost care to prevent tipping and/or
uncontrolled acceleration. Move the machine on ramps and/or steps only with the brush
head and squeegee raised.
Never park the machine on a slope.
Never leave the machine unattended with the motor or engine on. Before leaving it, turn
the motor or engine off and make sure it cannot move accidentally.
Always pay attention to other people, children in particular, present in the place where you
are working.
Children must be supervised to make sure they do not play with the machine.
The machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety and have received instruction in the
use of the machine.
Never use the machine to transport people or goods or to tow things. Do not tow the
machine.
Never rest objects of any weight on the machine for any reason.
Never obstruct the ventilation and heat dispersion openings.
Never remove, modify or circumvent safety devices.
Numerous unpleasant experiences have shown that a wide range of personal objects may
cause serious accidents. Before beginning work, remove jewellery, watches, ties, etc.
The operator must always use personal protection devices - protective apron or overalls,
non-slip waterproof shoes, rubber gloves, protective goggles and ear protectors and mask
to protect the respiratory tract.
Keep hands away from moving parts.
Never use detergents other than those specified. Follow the instructions on the relative
safety sheet. We recommend keeping detergents out of reach of children. In the event of
contact with the eyes, wash immediately with abundant water. If ingested, consult a doctor
immediately.
Make sure the power sockets used for the models with cable or battery charger are
connected to a suitable earth system and protected by differential thermal solenoid
switches.
Make sure the electrical characteristics of the machine (voltage, frequency, absorbed
power) given on the rating plate (fig. 1) are the same as those of the mains electricity
supply. The machine with cable has a three-wire cable and a three pin earthed plug for
use in an appropriate earthed socket. The earth wire is yellow and green. Never connect
this wire to anything other than the earth contact of the socket.
It is indispensable to respect the battery manufacturer's instructions and applicable
legislation. The batteries should always be kept clean and dry to avoid surface leakage
current. Protect the batteries from impurities such as metal dust.
Never rest tools on the batteries as they could cause short circuits leading to explosions.
When using battery acid, always follow the relative safety instructions scrupulously.
When using cable-powered versions, make sure to avoid crushing or tearing the power
cable, and make sure the rotating brush does not come into contact with the power cable.
Check the power cable regularly. If damaged, do not under any circumstances use the
machine. For replacement, contact a specialised service centre.
To recharge the batteries, always use the battery charger supplied with the machine
(when provided).
If particularly strong magnetic fields are present, assess their possible effect on the control
electronics.
Never wash the machine with water jets.
