On receipt of the machine, you must immediately make sure you have received all the material indicated in the accompanying
documentation and that the machine has not been damaged during shipment. Any damage noted should be reported to the
carrier immediately and our customer service department should be notified. Following this procedure without delay is the
only way to obtain the missing material and compensation for the damage.
INTRODUCTION
This floor automatic scrubber uses the mechanical action of a rotat-
ing brush and the chemical action of a cleaner-water solution to clean
hard floors. As it moves forward, it also collects the dirt removed
and the cleaning solution leaving the floor dry.
The machine must be used only for this purpose. Even the best
machine can only work well if used correctly and maintained. You
must read these instructions carefully, and then read them again
whenever a problem arises during operation of the machine. Please
contact our technical service department or your dealers if you have
any questions about the machine.
