3.1 General description
The machine is a sweeping scrubber, which can be used in civil and industrial
environments for sweeping, washing and drying flat, horizontal, smooth or moderately
rough floors, with even surfaces and free from obstacles. It is available either in the
version with battery or with cable to meet with any requirements of autonomy and weight.
The scrubber distributes on the floor an adequately dosed solution of water and detergent,
and brushes it to remove dirt. Choosing with care the right cleaning detergent and
brushes (or abrasive discs or rollers) in the wide range of accessories available, the
machine can adapt itself to all kinds of combinations of floors and dirt.
With the liquid suction system incorporated in the machine, the floor can also be dried
after washing. Drying is performed by means of the underpressure in the recovery tank
generated by the suction motor. The floor cleaner, connected to the tank, collects the dirty
water.
3.2 Legend
The main components of the machine are the following (fig. A):
•The detergent solution tank (fig. A, ref. 1): used to contain and carry the mixture of
clean water and detergent;
•The recovery tank (fig. A, ref. 2): used to collect dirty water sucked up from the floor
during washing;
•Control panel (fig. A, ref. 3);
•Head unit (fig. A, ref. 4): the main element is represented by the brushes, which
distribute the detergent solution on the floor, removing dirt;
•Squeegee unit (or floor wiper, fig. A, ref. 5): used to wipe and dry the floor, sucking up
the water spread on the floor;
3.3 Danger areas
A -Tank unit: in presence of certain detergents, danger of irritation for the eyes, skin,
mucous diaphragms, respiratory apparatus and asphyxia. Danger caused by dirt
recovered from the environment (germs and chemical subtances). Danger of crushing
between the recovery tank and solution tank, when the recovery tank is replaced on

ENGLISH

maintenance, routine maintenance or any other operations on the machine.
IMPORTANT
Stick to all the instructions contained in this Manual (especially those regarding
danger and warning) and observe the safety plates attached on the machine.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for injures to persons or damage to
things deriving from the non-observance of these instructions.
The machine must be used by trained personnel only, who have shown their skill and
have been expressly authorized to use it.
Persons under eighteen cannot use the machine.
This machine must not be used for any other purpose than that for which it has been
expressly manufactured. Assess the type of building in which it will be used (e.g.
pharmaceutical and chemical companies, hospitals, etc.) and scrupulously respect the
regulations and conditions in force.
Do not use the machine in places that are not adequately lighted, in environments with
danger of explosions, on public roads, in the presence of dirt harmful to health or
improper environments.
The suitable temperature for the use of the machine ranges between +4°C and +35°C;
when the machine is not used, the temperature range is between +0°C e +50°C.
The humidity range for the machine under any conditions varies between 30% and 95%.
Never use or suck up inflammable or explosive liquids (e.g. petrol, fuel oil, etc.),
inflammable gases, dry dust, acids and solvents (e.g. solvents for paints, acetone, etc.)
even if diluted. Never suck up any burning or white-hot objects.
Do not use the machine on slopes or ramps higher than 2%; in the event of light slopes
do not use it transversally, handle it with extreme care and do not reverse. When driving
along ramps or heavier slopes take great care to avoid overturning or uncontrolled

ENGLISH
7
acceleration. Overcome ramps and/or steps exclusively with the brush head and
squeegee lifted.
Never park the machine on slopes.
The machine must never be left unmanned with the motors running; before abandoning
the machine, switch the motors off, ensure that it cannot move accidentally, engage the
parking brake and remove the key from the ignition.
