HANDLING OF THE PACKED MACHINE
Th machin is suppli d with suitabl packing
for s n for fork lift truck handling.
Th total w ight is 111 kg.
Packing dim nsions:
Bas : 1175 mm x 665 mm
H ight: 1185 mm
ATTENTION:
Do not plac mor than two packings on top of
ach oth r.
UNPACKING OF THE MACHINE
1. R mov th xt rnal packing.
2. Unscr w th brack ts (1+2) that s cur th
machin to th pall t.
3. Mov th machin backwards, as indicat d in
th figur , avoiding h avy contacts to m chani-
cal parts.
4. K p th pall t for v ntual transport.
SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY
With th squ g support low r d, slid th
two stud bolts (1) plac d on th upp r part of th
squ g , insid th slots on th support. Block
th squ g by rotating th l v r (2) clockwis .
Ins rt th squ g hos (3) into its coupling, r -
sp cting its position as indicat d in th figur .
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SQUEEGEE HEIGHT
Th squ g must b adjust d in h ight d -
p nding on th rubb r w ar. In ord r to guaran-
t a p rf ct drying during th op ration, th
low r blad of th r ar squ g rubb r (4) must
work slightly b nt backwards (op rator sid ) in
uniform d way in all its l ngth.
Acting clockwis upon th two r gist rs (5) it is
possibl to incr as th b nding of th rubb r.
Acting count rclockwis it is possibl to d -
cr as th rubb r b nding.
A lab l plac d n ar th two r gist rs (5) indicat s
rotation s ns to incr as or r duc th h ight.
Not : Th wh ls of th squ g support must
b adjust d through th r gist rs (5) at th sam
h ight so that th squ g works parall l to th
floor.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SQUEEGEE INCLINATION
In cas of n d, to incr as th rubb r b nding
in th c ntral part, it is n c ssary to tilt th
squ g body rotating count rclockwis th
r gist r (6). To incr as th rubb r b nding on
th squ g xtr miti s, rotat th r gist r
clockwis .
SPLASH GUARD ASSEMBLY
Th two splash guards hav to b ass mbl d
onto th brush s bas group. Ins rt th m tal
strips insid th suitabl slots pr s nt on th
rubb r. Plac th round hol at th flat xtr mity
of th strip onto th scr w plac d in th front
part of th brush s bas group. S cur th strips
through th nut blocking it.
Hook th spring in th r ar part of th brush s
bas group to th slot plac d at th xtr mity of
th m tal strip still fr . Pl as act as abov for
both th splash guard rubb rs, paying att ntion
to r duc to th minimum th gap b tw n th
two rubb rs in th front part of th brush s bas
group.
With brush s ass mbl d, th splash guard must
slightly touch th floor.
MANUAL ASSEMBLY OF THE BRUSHES

1. Acting upon th p dal (12) lift th brush s
bas group.
2. With th brush s bas group in lift d position,
ins rt th brush s into th ir plat s at und r-
n ath th brush s bas turning th m until th
thr m tal buttons ar prop rly s at d in th ir
slots; rotat n rgically th brush s to push th
button towards th coupling spring until th y
g t block d.
Th figur shows th rotating s ns for brush s
coupling.
For th brush s bas s ruby45 and ruby55 , w
sugg st to inv rt daily th brush s position, in
ord r to guarant a long r op rating lif of
th m. Wh n v r brush s w r d form d w
sugg st to r ass mbl th m in th sam position,
avoiding that th diff r nt inclination of th bris-
tl s caus s xc ssiv motor ov rload or troubl -
som vibrations.

pr s nc , b for starting working op ration, in-
troduc into th r cov ry tank a minimum quan-
tity of anti-foam product.
N v r us pur acid.
LOOR CLEANING
STARTING OF THE MACHINE
Th machin is quipp d with a mains cabl

(5).
4. For machin s quipp d with k y switch (s
und r "OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES”), turn th k y (8)
clockwis to switch on th machin , count r-
clockwis to switch it off.
5. Pr ss th brush s motor switch (1).
6. Pr ss th switch of th suction motor (2) and
this will start to function.
7. Acting upon th solution valv l v r (10) ad-
just th solution d t rg nt quantity bringing th
floor uniformly w t, avoiding th l akag of d -
t rg nt from th splash guards. Always consid r
that th corr ct quantity of solution d t rg nt
d p nds on typ of floor, dirtin ss and machin
sp d.
8. For machin s optionally quipp d with sol -
noid valv (s und r "OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES")
th flow of d t rg nt solution will b activat d

signal lamp of th op n solution valv will com
on (6). R l asing th s l v rs, flow will stop
automatically.
9. Acting upon th brush s bas lifting p dal
(12) low r th brush s bas .
10. Acting upon th squ g lifting l v r (11)
low r th squ g .
11. Activating th l v rs (9), th brush s will start
rotating transf rring to th machin a forward
mov m nt. Th squ g will start drying th
floor.
12. During th first m t rs ch ck that th d t r-
g nt solution flow is appropriat and that th

BRUSHES MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTION DE-
VICE
Th machin is quipp d with a prot ction d -
vic (7) that int rv n s in cas of an ov rload of
th brush s motor disconn cting th motor. If
th prot ction d vic int rv n s again and oft n,
contact th authoriz d t chnical assistanc .
ATTENTION:
To r s t th brush s motor, turn off th brush s
motor switch (1) for a f w s conds and turn it on
again, r arm th push button of th prot ction
d vic (7).
OVERFLOW DEVICE
