PURPOSE AND CONTENT OF THE USER AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
The aim of this document is to provide customers with all the information needed to use the machine in the safest,
most appropriate and most autonomous way.
This includes information concerning technical aspects, safety, operation, downtime, maintenance, spare parts and
scrapping.
The operators and qualied technicians must carefully read the instructions in this manual before carrying out any
operations on the machine.
If in doubt about the correct interpretation of instructions, contact your nearest FIMAP Customer Service Centre to
obtain the necessary clarications.
STORING THE USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
The following document must be stored in its special pouch close to the machine, protected from liquids and
anything else that could compromise its legibility.
If the document is lost or becomes illegible with wear, contact the nearest FIMAP service centre to obtain a new
one.
REGULATIONS
All references to forwards and backwards, front and rear, right and left indicated in this manual should be
understood as referring to the operator in a driving position with his hands on the steering wheel.
The term working position is used to indicate when the brush head or the squeegee or both are in contact with the
oor to be cleaned.
The term resting position is used to indicate when the brush head, the squeegee, or both are raised above the oor
to be cleaned.

ON CONSIGNMENT OF THE MACHINE
When the machine is delivered to the customer, an immediate check must be performed to ensure all the material
mentioned in the shipping documents has been received, as well as to check that the machine has not su󰀨ered any
damage during transportation.
If this is the case, the shipping agent must ascertain the extent of the damage at once, and notify the nearest
FIMAP service centre.
It is only by prompt action of this type that the missing material can be obtained, and compensation for damage
successfully claimed.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
When used with the scrubbing machine working
program, which uses the mechanical action of two
brushes combined with a chemical solution delivered
to the brushes via a pump-controlled water system,
the machine is capable of cleaning a wide range of
oors and types of dirt. When the machine moves
forward, the squeegee collects the dirty solution from
the oor, and the suction system transfers the dirty
solution into the recovery tank.
The machine must be used only 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 carpets.
It is only suitable for use in indoor (or at least lided) environments.
ATTENTION: the machine is not suitable for use in the rain, or under water jets.
ATTENTION: IT IS FORBIDDEN to use the machine for picking up dangerous dusts or inammable liquids in
places with an explosive atmosphere. 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.
