Gross weight (GVW): maximum permissible weight with the machine fully loaded and ready for use. The gross
weight of the machine includes the detergent solution tank full of clean water, empty dirty water tank (half full in
the case of recycling systems), empty dust bags, the hopper lled to its rated capacity, the largest recommended
batteries and all accessories such as cables, hoses, detergent, mops and brushes.
Transported weight: the weight of the machine including batteries, but excluding optionals (for example, the

IMPORTANT SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
Basic safety precautions must be followed when using
any electrical equipment.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
OPERATING THIS MACHINE
WARNING! - To minimise the risk of electrocution or injury:
a) Never leave the machine unsupervised when connected to the mains power sup-
ply. Disconnect the machine from the mains power socket after use or before per-
forming maintenance.
b) Never allow the machine to be used as a toy. Be extremely vigilant whenever the
machine is operated by or near children.
c) Only use the machine as instructed in this manual. Only use the accessories
recommended by the manufacturer.
d) Do not use the machine if the power cable or plug is damaged. If the machine
does not function as it should or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or has
fallen in water, have it checked and repaired by a specialist service centre.
e) Do not move or transport the machine by pulling on its power cable. Do not use
the power cable as a handle, close doors on it or pull it over sharp objects or cor-
ners. Do not run over the power cable with the machine. Keep the power cable well
clear of hot surfaces.
f) Do not disconnect the machine by pulling on the power cable. Grip the plug, not
the cable, to disconnect the machine.
g) Never touch a mains powered machine with wet hands.
h) Do not insert objects into the ventilation slots. Do not operate the machine with
blocked ventilation slots. Remove all dust, dirt, hair and debris that might be block-
ing the air ow.
i) Keep hair, loose garments, ngers and all other parts of the body well clear of slots
7

EN
and moving parts.
l) Switch o󰀨 all controls before unplugging the machine.
m) Take particular care when cleaning stairs.
n) Do not use the machine to clean up ammable or combustible liquids like petrol,
and do not operate the machine in areas where such liquids may be present.
The machine must not be used for purposes other than those expressly intended.
Evaluate the type of building in which the device is to be used (e.g.: chemical or
pharmaceutical production facilities, hospitals, etc.), and ensure strict observance
of the pertinent safety regulations and conditions.
Do not operate the machine in inadequate lighting, explosive atmospheres, on pub-
lic roads or to clean dirt that is hazardous to health (dust, gas, etc.).
The machine must be kept indoors at all times.The machine must be kept indoors at all times.
The machine is designed to operate in temperatures between +4°C and +35°C. It
can be stored in temperatures between +0°C and +50°C when not in use.
The machine must be used at an altitude below 2000 m.The machine must be used at an altitude below 2000 m.
The machine is designed to operate at relative humidity levels between 0% and
95%.
The machine must be used exclusively by persons trained in its use and/or who
have demonstrated their ability and have been expressly authorised to use it.
The machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, un-
less they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety and have received
instruction in the use of the machine.
Never use detergents other than those specied. Follow the instructions on the rela-
tive safety data sheet.
Always keep detergents out of the reach of children. In the event of detergent mak-
ing contact with the eyes, wash immediately and copiously with water, and if swal-
lowed, consult a doctor immediately.
Numerous unpleasant experiences have shown that a wide range of personal
objects may cause serious accidents. Before beginning work, remove jewellery,
watches, ties, etc.
The operator must always use Personal Protective Equipment: protective apron
or overalls, non-slip waterproof shoes, rubber gloves, protective eyewear and ear
defenders, and mask for protection of the respiratory airways.
Do not pick up burning or smoking material like cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
Never operate the machine on slopes or ramps of more than 2%. Never drive across
even gentle slopes. Always manoeuvre with care and avoid reversing.
If you need to transport the machine over ramps or steep slopes, to prevent it tipping
8

EN
over or running out of control, completely empty the detergent and dirty water tanks
and remove the batteries.
Never park the machine on a slope.
Never leave the machine unattended while switched on. Before leaving it, discon-
nect the machine from the mains power supply and make sure it cannot move ac-
cidentally.
Never use the machine to transport people or goods or for towing. Do not tow the
machine.
Never rest objects of any signicant weight on the machine, for whatever reason.
Do not remove, modify or bypass safety devices (brush guards, battery covers,
fuses, electric system covers, etc.).
Always check the condition of the brush guard before operating the machine. If any
damage is found, do not operate the machine but have the guard replaced by per-
sonnel trained and authorised by the manufacturer.
Never touch the brush unless the machine is disconnected from the power supply.
The uids collected during work contain detergent, disinfectant, water and organic
and inorganic material. They must be disposed o󰀨 in accordance with current leg-They must be disposed o󰀨 in accordance with current leg-
