TECHNICAL INFORMATION
General description
This machine is a scrubber drier for sweeping, washing and drying at, horizontal, smooth or mod-
erately rough, even and obstacle free oors in civil and industrial premises.
The scrubber drier spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration on the
oor and then scrubs it to remove the dirt. By carefully choosing the detergent and brushes (or
abrasive disks) from the wide range of accessories available, the machine can be adapted to a wide
range of combinations of types of oor and dirt.
A suction system incorporated in the machine dries the oor after washing by means of the low
pressure generated in the dirty water tank by the suction motor. The squeegee connected to the
tank collects the dirty water.
Parts of the machine
The machine comprises the main parts described below (g. 1).
► The water/detergent tank (g. 1, ref. 1) contains and carries the mixture of clean water and
cleaning product.
► The dirty water tank (g. 1, ref. 2) collects the dirty water picked up from the oor after
washing;
► Control panel (g. 1, ref. 3).
► Head assembly (g. 1, ref. 4), the main element comprises the brushes/rollers which dis-
tribute the detergent solution onto the oor and remove the dirt.

repair workshop.
Otherwise it must be disposed of in compliance with current legislation.
Batteries (Battery version)
Two different types of battery may be installed on these machines:
►Leak-proof tubular batteries: these require regular checks on electrolyte level. When nec-
essary, top up with distilled water until the plates are covered. Do not over-ll (5 mm max.
above the plates).
►Gel batteries: this type of battery requires no maintenance.
Battery technical characteristics must correspond to those listed in the Technical specications sec-
tion. The use of higher capacity batteries could seriously jeopardise manoeuvrability and lead to
the drive motor overheating. Batteries with a lower capacity and weight will require charging more
frequently.
Batteries must be kept charged, dry and clean and the connections must be kept tight.
14

GB
! IMPORTANT!
Follow the instructions below to congure the machine’s software for the type of batteries

Batteries: preparation
! DANGER!
During battery installation and any type of battery maintenance, the operator must be pro-
vided with the necessary personal protection devices (gloves, goggles overalls, etc.) to limit
the risk of injury. Keep clear of naked ames, avoid short circuiting the battery poles, avoid
sparks and do not smoke.
Batteries are normally supplied lled with acid and ready for use.
If the batteries are dry, proceed as follows before installing them in the machine.
Remove the caps and ll all elements with sulphuric acid solution specic for batteries until the
plates are entirely covered (this requires at least a couple of passes for each element).
Leave the batteries stand for 4-5 hours to allow air bubbles to come to the surface and the plates
to absorb the electrolyte.
Make sure the level of electrolyte is still above the plates and if necessary top up with sulphuric
acid solution.
Close the caps.
Install the batteries in the machine (following the procedure described below).
Charge the batteries before starting up the machine for the rst time. Follow the instructions in the
“Battery maintenance and charging” section.

Batteries: removal
! DANGER!
When removing the batteries, the operator must be equipped with suitable personal protec-
tion devices (gloves, goggles, overalls, safety shoes, etc.) to reduce the risk of injury. Make
sure the switches on the control panel are in the “0” position (off) and the machine is turned
off. Keep away from naked ames, do not short circuit the battery poles, do not cause sparks
and do not smoke. Proceed as follows.
►Disconnect the battery cables and bridge terminals from the battery poles.
► If necessary, remove the devices xing the battery to the base of the machine.
►Lift the batteries from the compartment using suitable lifting equipment.
Choosing a battery charger
Make sure the battery charger is compatible with the batteries to be charged.
Tubular lead batteries: an automatic charger is recommended. Consult the battery charger manu-
facturer and manual to conrm the choice.
Gel batteries: use a charger specic for this type of battery.
! DANGER
Use CE-marked battery chargers that comply with the relevant product standards (EN60335-
2-29), featuring double or reinforced insulation between input and output, and a SELV output
circuit.
Preparing the battery charger
If you wish to use a battery charger not provided with the machine, you must t it with the connector
supplied with the machine.
The connector supplied for the external battery charger is suitable for cables with a minimum cross-
section of 16 mm2.
Proceed as follows to t the connector:
Remove about 13 mm of protective sheath from the red and black cables of the battery charger.
Insert the wires into the connector contacts and squeeze them forcefully with suitable pliers.
Respect the polarity (red wire + black wire –) when inserting the wires into the connector.

Squeegee installation and adjustment
Switch the machine on, lower the squeegee by pressing the suction motor button.
Place the squeegee in the slots provided on the support (g. 4), then tighten the fastening knobs
and insert the suction hose.
Squeegee adjustment
The squeegee blades scrape the lm of water and detergent from the oor and prepare the way
for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the
oor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efciency and requiring it to be replaced. The state
of wear should be checked frequently.
For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear blade
bends during operation by about 45° with respect to the oor at every point. The angle of the blades
can be adjusted using the screw (g. 5, ref. 1), while the height of the squeegee from the oor can
be adjusted by changing the height of the two wheels (g. 6).
