TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The GL Pro is a oor scrubbing machine that, together with the mechanical action of a brush with the addition of the chemical action of a
water-detergent solution, is able to clean a wide range of oors and types of dirt, using its forward movement to collect the removed dirt and the
detergent solution not absorbed by the oor. The machine must only be used for this purpose.
INTENDED USE
This scrubbing machine was designed and built for the cleaning (scrubbing and drying) of smooth, compact ooring in the commercial,
residential and industrial sectors by a qualied operator in proven safety conditions. The scrubbing machine is not suitable for cleaning rugs or
carpet oors. It is only suitable for use in closed (or at least covered) places.
ATTENTION: the machine is not suitable for use in the rain, or under water jets.
IT IS FORBIDDEN to use the machine in environments with an explosive atmosphere to clean dangerous powders or ammable liquids. In
addition, it is not suitable as a means of transport for people or objects.
SAFETY
Operator cooperation is paramount for accident prevention. No accident prevention programme can be e󰀨ective without the full cooperation
of the person directly responsible for machine operation. The majority of occupational accidents that happen either in the workplace or whilst
moving are caused by failure to respect the most basic safety rules. An attentive, careful operator is most e󰀨ective guarantee against accidents
and is fundamental in order to implement any prevention programme.

there is su󰀩cient solution and that the squeegee is drying correctly.
8. The machine will now begin to work with full e󰀩ciency until the battery is at or until the detergent solution has nished.
HOUR METER
0.4
H
1 2
4 3
The machine control panel contains the control display, which shows the total usage time via a series of
numbers (1).
The digits that precede the "." symbol identify the hours, whereas the numbers that precede the “.” symbol
identify the tenths of an hour (a tenth of an hour corresponds to six minutes).
N.B.: When the “hour glass” symbol (2) is ashing it indicates that the hour meter is counting the
appliance's operating time.
BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR
The control display is on the control panel, the battery charge level can be seen at the bottom.
The indicator is composed of two charge level symbols, the rst represented by a graphic symbol (3), the second by a symbol that represents a
battery (4).
The graphic symbol (3) is composed of 9 charge levels, each of which represents a residual charge percentage.
When the residual charge is at 20% the battery symbol (4) starts to ash, in these conditions bring the machine to the area used for charging the
batteries.
N.B.: a few seconds after the battery charge level reaches 20%, the brush motor switches o󰀨 automatically. With the remaining charge it
is still possible, however, to complete the drying process before recharging
N.B.: a few seconds after the battery charge level reaches 10%, the suction motor switches o󰀨 automatically. With the remaining charge,
it is still possible, however, to move the machine to the location designated for its recharging.
OVERFLOW DEVICE
The standard model machine is NOT equipped with an overow device, because the volume of the recovery tank is larger than the capacity
of the solution tank. In extraordinary cases, there is a mechanical device (oat) under the recovery tank lid that, when the recovery tank is
full, shuts o󰀨 the air to the vacuum motor intake to protect it; the sound of the suction motor will then be deeper. Empty the recovery tank (see
“EMPTYING THE RECOVERY TANK”).
