Insist on washing the dirtiest spots: in this way the detergent has the time to perform its
chemical action for the detachment and suspension of dirt, and the brushes to develop an
effective mechanical action.
6.8.2 Drying
Lower the squeegee and with the suction unit operating pass again on the same area you
have previously washed. In this way you obtain a result that is similar to a thorough
washing and the following operations of ordinary maintenance will certainly take less time.
To wash and dry at the same time, operate the brush, water, squeegee and suction motor
simultaneously.

Draining off dirty water
Use the individual protection devices suitable for the operation to be performed.
Perform the draining operations with the machine disconnected from the power
The drain hose of the recovery tank is located at the rear left side of the machine.
To empty the above-mentioned tank:
• take the machine next to a drain;
• detach the drain hose (fig. 8, ref. 2) from its seat, holding it in correspondence with the
fixing spring (fig. 8, ref. 3) and pull it horizontally;
• keeping the hose end as much high as possible, take off the drain cock (fig. 8, ref. 4)
by unscrewing it;
• lower the hose end gradually, checking the intensity of the jet of water with reference
to its height from the ground;
• check the amount of residual dirt in the recovery tank and wash it inside, if necessary.
To facilitate the cleaning and total drain, it is better to unhook it from the solution tank
and lift it;
• when the dirty water has been totally drained, lower the recovery tank (if it has been
previously lifted) and hook it again to the solution tank;
• close the drain hose (fig. 8, ref. 2) with the cock (fig. 8, ref. 4) screw-tightening it;
check that it is perfectly closed and refit the hose in its housing.
While washing the recovery tank never remove the suction filter (fig. 10, ref. 2) from
its seat and never direct the jet of water towards the filter itself.
Now it is possible to proceed with a new washing and drying action.

Draining off clean water
Use the individual protection devices suitable for the operation to be performed.
Perform the draining off operations with the machine disconnected from the power
To empty the tank:
• take the machine next to a drain;
• take off the drain cock (fig. 9, ref. 1)
• when the contents have been totally drained from the solution tank, close the cap (fig. 9,
ref. 1); check that it is perfectly closed.
The water and detergent solution can also be used to wash the recovery tank.
