2. MACHINE FEATURES AND TECHNICAL DATA
2.1. IDENTIFYNG THE MACHINE
A silver label is sticked on the protection case of the steering column and clearly shows the data referring to
the “CE” marking.
2.2. DESCRIPTION AND COMPONENTS
The scrubber machine – TERMINATOR-1000 - has been designed for the cleaning of all flat surfaces by
means of washing and suction of the washing water.
The electric traction system is supplied by a series of batteries which supply energy to the brushes motors, to
the squeegee motor, to the suction motor and to the sweeping system (OPTIONAL).
The machine is equipped with three front or central rotating brushes which wash the surface by means of
water and detergent. Whilst the machine is running forward, the back brush (squeegee) picks the water up
that is directly sucked into the recovery tank.
The accelerator pedal starts both the washing brushes and the suction motor which stop automatically after a
few seconds when you leave the pedal (the solenoid valve switches on only at the brushes ignition
OPTIONAL). When the washing brushes standstill, they are non more in contact with the ground. In this way
the bristles will not be damaged while the brushes are not working. The vacuum motor turns on when the
suction squeegee goes down and it stops automatically at the rise of the squeegee.
The sweeping unit (OPTIONAL) assembled in the centre with the front washing plate must pick up the dirty
inside the waste container. The sweeping unit has to be used during the first washing phase so that to pick
up the dirty which can obstruct the squeegee.
Thanks to the dashboard the operator can control all the machine functions and a series of LEDs shows to
the operator the battery status or the errors detected by the electronic card.
The operator can control all the main machine functions and in particular:
¾Turn on the washing brushes lowing the plate (SOLENOID VALVE OPTIONAL);
¾Regulate the quantity of water;
¾Start the suction motor lowing the squeegee;
¾Start the lift or the sink of the plate;
¾Start the lift or the sink of the squeegee;
¾Lift up and lower the brush of the sweeping unit (OPTIONAL)
¾Choose the forward or back gear;

3.6 SAFETY SYSTEMS
La macchina è dotata dei seguenti sistema di sicurezza.
The machine is equipped with the following safety systems:
¾Socket (picture 4.5), the same socket used for the battery charger. In case of emergency, this
socket must be taken away from the plug by means of its handle.
The operator must be trained about safety rules. Do never restore this safety system before the
problem has been sorted out. If it is necessary ask for the technician help.
¾Emergency button: the machine is equipped with an emergency button under the driver’s seat. If
the operator is not aboard, the machine does not start. Moreover, the machine stops automatically if
the operator forgets to switch the machine off. In this way the operator must seats again on the
machine, switch the machine off, wait for a few seconds and start the machine again.
¾Float: inside the recovery tank there is a floater that stops the suction of the machine if the tank is
too full. To start the machine again the operator has to empty the recovery tank (see § 4.5.7.water
discharge).
¾Solenoid valve (optional): The machine is equipped with a solenoid valve which avoids the water
leak till the starting of the brushes.
¾Float timer (optional): The machine is equipped with a timer on the dirty water float which avoids, in
case of water’s fluctuation inside the recovery tank, the ignition and the stop of the vacuum motor.
3. 7 SAFETY DIAGNOSTIC SIGNALING
The electronic card is equipped with a particular system which shows the machine errors through quick
flashings on the battery charger display placed on the dashboard.
The number of switched on LEDs represents one of the errors listed below:
n.°
flash Description Solution
1 The gear command is already active on ignition: the ignition key has been
activated when the gear command was already plugged in.
It is required to release the gear command in
order to eliminate the flashing signals. Should
this not happen, it may be necessary to reset the
acceleration system.
2 Battery too unloaded or subject to tension caused by a short circuit on the
power. Indicates that the tension of the system is lower than the minimum
level required for a proper functioning.
Verify that the battery is not too unloaded and if
necessary reload the battery. Alternatively verify
whether any electrical connections are loosened.
If this doesn’t solve the problem, it may be
necessary to replace the system.
3 Not used
4 Motor not connected or wrong contact on the motor circuit. This may happen
when the motor brushes do not correctly lie on the rotor or when cables are
loosened.
Verify the connections, the functionalities and the
integrity of the motor.
5 Internal fault of the regulator or earth on the motor. There could be a negative dispersion on the
motor circuit; alternatively, verify the regulator.
6 Potentiometer failure Check if one or more wires to the potentiometer
are disconnected
7
Temperature of the power circuit is too high; this happens when the
temperature of the mosfet is higher than 75°C +/- 5°C, i.e. when the machine
has worked in overload conditions, e.g. on too steep slopes for too long, or in
working temperature higher than 40°C. This may also happen in case of
damage of the winding of the motor, which may lead to unusual absorption of
current.
Wait until the temperature has cooled down.
8 Motor is already working on start. Indicates that the machine is being starter
when it is (or its motor) is already working. Stop the machine and thereafter do it again
9 Software fault of the microcontroller or hardware problem. This may happen
in case of faults to the circuits, which measure the current and the loads.
Try to stop and then restart the machine. If the
fault appears again it is required to verify the
regulator.

SAFETY TERMINATOR-1000
Rev. 000 20/12/04 13/35
3.8. OTHER DANGERS
FIORENTINI S.r.l. analyzes – starting from the design of the machine - all the dangers that can occur while
the machine is operating in order to prevent or at least lower the operator’s accidents. Thanks to a series of
signals on the machine the operator can avoid many risks that can occur.
CRUSHING
This kind of danger can occur:
•During the side brushes regulation;
•during the batteries recharge because of the fall of the recovery tank;
•during the replacement of the sweeping system’s brush
Whilst regulating the side brushes, the ignition key must be kept away from the dashboard in order
to avoid the casual starting of the machine.
Whilst the batteries recharge, the operator must pay attention that any parts of his/her body enter the
batteries room.
Special labels sticked on the carters of the brushes or on the recovery tank prevent
dangers to the operator (see § 3.7.).
SQUASHING AND SHEARING
This kind of danger can occur:
•while the operator is regulating the steering wheel by means of the pedal.
The operator must only use his/her legs during the regulation of the steering column.
Squashing and shearing danger is highlighted by special labels sticked on the case of the steering
column (see § 3.7.).
TURNOVER
This kind of ranger can occur:
•during the normal operating of the machine when you exceed sloping limits as specified in
the manual and you use the machine to clean disconnected surfaces or with holes and high
depressions (photo 3.2)
Do not use the machine to wash sloping surfaces higher than 12% or surfaces with
holes or depressions which might compromise the stability of the machine.
FIORENTINI is not responsible for accidents occurred to people or things provoked by a
wrong use of the machine, i.e. using the machine on surfaces which can compromise its
stability.
The purchaser must stick proper labels on the machine to show the operator the right use of
the scrubber.
