INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
Thank you for having chosen our machine. This floor cleaning machine is used for the industrial and civil cleaning and is able to clean any type of floor.
During its advance movement, the combined action of the brushes and the detergent solution removes the dirt which is aspirated through the rear
suction assembly, giving a perfectly dry surface.
The machine must be used only for such purpose. It gives the best performance if it is used correctly and maintained in perfect efficiency. We therefore
ask you to read this instruction booklet carefully whenever difficulties arise in the course of the machine’s use. In case of need, we ask you to contact
our service department for all advice and servicing as may prove necessary.
CAUTION This machine is for indoor use only
CAUTION This machine shall be stored indoors only.

BEFORE THE USE
HANDLING OF THE PACKED MACHINE
The machine is supplied with suitable packing foreseen for fork lift truck
handling.
For the package dimensions please look at the “TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION”
table.
Do not place more than 2 packagings on top of each other.
UNPACKING AND MANUALLY MOVING THE MACHINE
1. Remove the external packing.
2. Unscrew the supports (1+2) that fix the machine to the platform.
equipment (due to weight, considering the type of batteries chosen,
and coupling system).
The batteries must be in accordance with CEI 21-5 Norms.
Strictly follow manufacturer/distributor indications for the maintenance
and charge of the batteries. All installation and maintenance operations
must be executed by specialized staff, using suitable protection
accessories.
3. Before releasing the
machine from the platform
it is necessary to unlock the
parking brake that stops the
traction wheel. To do that open
the lever (3). The red position
stands for the braked machine,
the green position stands for
the unlocked parking brake..
4. Move the machine backwards, as indicated in the picture, avoiding
heavy contacts against mechanical parts..
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
The standard machine is provided with the batteries set on lead/acid.
For different settings see chapter “BATTERY SETTINGS”.
The machine requires the use of serial connected batteries placed in
their dedicated van. Batteries must be handled using suitable lifting
For batteries installation it is
necessary to reach the battery
compartment as indicated
under paragraph “ACCESS TO
THE BATTERY VAN”.).
1. Put the batteries in the
housing.
2. Connect the terminals,
respecting the polarities,
avoiding contact with other
parts that could create short
circuit, covering the battery poles with terminal protections.
BATTERY CHARGER
Make sure that the battery charger is suitable for the installed batteries
both for their capacities and type (lead/acid or GEL and equivalent).
In the plastic bag containing the use and maintenance you will find
the coupling connector for the recharger. It must be assembled onto
the cables of your charger, following the instructions given by the
manufacturer.
ON-BOARD BATTERY CHARGER (OPTIONAL)
If the machine is equipped
with the incorporated battery
charger (see under “OPTIONAL
EQUIPMENTS”) please refer
to the instructions of the
constructor of this equipment
what the charging operations
occur.
The battery charger is connected directly to the battery poles.
During the charge a system is activated that does not allow the machine
functioning.
The battery charger cable have a maximum length of 2 meters and must
be connected to a single phase plug CEE 7/7 type.
BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR
The battery charge level is displayed with its related symbol (see
“CONTROLS DISPLAY”).
When the last segment of charge starts blinking, the battery
is almost low and the suction and brushes functions are
disabled.
When even the last segment of charge turns off, the battery
is completely low and the machine stops.
5. Restore the electric brake
bringing back the lever on the
“red” position as showed in
paragraph 3.
Keep the platform and the brackets for an eventual transport.
The portable slope is not included in the packaging.
ACCESS TO THE BATTERY VAN
The machine is provided with an extractable compartment for the
batteries installment. To accede it turn the knob (1) and pull the
compartment (2) out.
