PARK PEDAL
NOTE
In order to facilitate the use of the park pedal (10),
slightly lift the front section of the machine by gaining
leverage with your hands on the handlebar (A, Fig.
1).
For parking/handling:
1. Putting your hands on the handlebar (A), slightly lift the front
section of the machine, then press the pedal (B, Fig. 1).
In this condition, the front wheels (11) are resting on the
oor and the brush/squeegee unit is lifted.
For washing/drying:
2. Putting your hands on the handlebar (A), slightly lift the
front section of the machine, then lift the pedal (C).
In this conditions, the front wheels (11) are retracted and
the brush/squeegee unit is resting on the oor.
SOLUTION TANK FILLING
CAUTION!
Use only low-foam and non-ammable
detergents, intended for automatic scrubber
applications.
WARNING!
When using oor cleaning detergents, follow
the instructions on the labels of the detergent
bottles.
To handle oor cleaning detergents, wear
suitable gloves and protections.
1. Remove the tank cover (12).
2. Remove the cap (A, Fig. 2) on the solution tank (B).
3. Fill the solution tank (B) with water, leaving a few
centimeters from the top.
The water temperature must not exceed 104 °F (40 °C).
4. Use the measurement mark on the cap (A) to mix the
solution.
The capacity to the mark is 30 ml, equivalent to a 0.5 %
solution when diluted in a full tank of water. Always follow
the dilution instructions on the label of the chemical product
used to prepare the solution.
5. Replace the cap (A) on the solution tank.
6. Replace the tank cover (12).
NOTE
Whenever the 2 LEDs on the solution push-button (3)
ash, stop the machine and ll the solution tank.

STARTING UP THE MACHINE (SCRUBBING/DRYING)
1. Press the lever (8) and turn the handlebar (1), adjusting its position and inclination as preferred.
2. Ensure that the park pedal (10) is lowered, then push the machine over to the area to be cleaned.
3. Lift the park pedal (10) to bring the brush/squeegee unit in contact with the oor.
4. Press the switch (2) to start the machine.
5. Press the solution push-button (3) according to the type of cleaning to be performed:
• 1 LED on - for normal dirt
• 2 LEDs on - for heavy dirt
6. Manoeuvre the machine with your hands on the grip handles (6) and start scrubbing/drying the oor.
NOTE
The grip handles (6) have sensors which allow the brush and solution to be started up only when the operator has their
hands on at least one of the grip handles.
7. If necessary, deactivate the vacuum system by pressing the push-button (4, LED off), then press it again to reactivate it (LED
on).
8. To collect medium-large debris, lift the front squeegee by pressing the lever (7).
To keep the front squeegee lifted, press the lever (7) and lock it with the push-button (9A).
9. If necessary, in order to use the handlebar allowing it to tilt, press the lever (8) and lock it with the button (9B).
NOTE
To unblock the function of the push-buttons (9A, 9B) and return to the lowered front squeegee and xed handlebar,
briey press the squeegee lever (7) or the handlebar inclination lever (8).
10. For oors with particularly tough dirt, the pressure of the brush on the oor can be increased by turning the knob (19) to the
left. Turn the knob (19) to the right to decrease the pressure.
NOTE
For correct scrubbing/drying of oors at the sides of the walls, Advance suggests to go near the walls with the right side
of the machine as shown in gure 3.
NOTE
If applicable, to better dry the grout lines between the tiles, move in a diagonal direction with respect to the oor layout,
as shown in gure 4.
Figure 3 Figure 4
P100934 P100935
CAUTION!
In the event of a brush motor overload, the battery symbol LEDs (5) will ash simultaneously.
If the overload persists, the brush stops.
To start scrubbing again after a brush stop due to overload, turn off and then on the machine with the push-
button (2).
CAUTION!
To avoid damaging the oor surface, turn off the brush rotation by releasing the grip handles (6) when the
machine is not operating.
CAUTION!
Use always the machine with solution; avoid using the machine dry without solution for long period of time.

BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL
The battery charge level can be viewed on the battery icon
LEDs (5).
The battery charge percentage depends on the number of LEDs
lit, as shown in the gure 5.
When the rst left LED ashes (15 %), the machine will only run
for a few more minutes (this will depend on the characteristics of
the work to perform).
STOPPING THE MACHINE
1. Turn off the machine by pressing the switch (2).
2. Press the park pedal (10) to lift the brush/squeegee unit.
NOTE
If the machine is on but not working (without the
operator’s hands on the grip handles), it automatically
turns off after 2 minutes.
TANK EMPTYING
An automatic oat shut-off system turns off the vacuum system
when the recovery tank is full.
The vacuum system deactivation is signaled by a sudden
increase in the vacuum motor noise, and the oor is not dried.
When the recovery tank is full, empty it according to the
following procedure.
Recovery tank emptying
1. Turn the machine off and press the park pedal.
2. Drive the machine to the appointed disposal area.
3. Turn and use the handle (A, Fig. 6) to lift the tanks
container (B) from the machine.
4. Remove the cover (C) and empty the recovery tank; rinse
the tank with clean water at the end of the work.
Solution tank emptying
5. Perform steps 1 to 4.
6. Remove the plug (14) and empty the solution tank. Then,
rinse the tank with clean water.
7. Reinstall the tanks container (B) on the machine body
(16), rotate the handle (A) to the horizontal position and
reposition the tank cover (C).
MACHINE TRANSPORT/PARKING
1. Stop and turn off the machine, then press the pedal (10) to
lift the brush/squeegee assembly from the oor.
2. While holding the machine in this position, drive it to the
appointed parking area.
3. If necessary, in order to manually lift the machine, bend the
handlebar (24) and grip the handle (25), then transport the

CHARGING THE BATTERY OUT OF THE
MACHINE
1. Remove the battery (27) from the machine as shown in the
Removing the Battery paragraph.
2. Place the battery in the appointed recharging area.
3. Plug the battery charger cable plug (B) into the battery
socket (A, Fig. 8) and the power supply cable plug into a
mains socket (the mains voltage and frequency must be
compatible with the battery charger values shown on the
data plate).
4. During charging, one of the 6 green LEDs (C) will remain
steadily on to indicate the percentage of charging
performed, while the other LEDs (to the left of the LED
which is on steadily) will ash sequentially.
5. When the 6th LED (C) is lit steadily, battery charging is
complete.
6. Disconnect the battery charger from the mains and from
the battery.
NOTE
When the battery is not connected to the battery
charger, you can see the battery charge level by
pressing the button (D) briey. The number of green
LEDs (C) turned on is proportional to the battery
charger level percentage.

BATTERY CHARGING
CAUTION!
Charge the battery when only one LED of the battery symbol is lit (5).
When the battery is discharged, charge is as soon as possible, as that condition makes its life shorter. Check for
battery charge at least once a week.
1. Drive the machine to the appointed recharging area.
2. Ensure that the machine is off.
3. Plug the battery charger cable plug (29) into the machine socket and the power supply cable plug into a mains socket (the
mains voltage and frequency must be compatible with the battery charger values shown on the data plate).
NOTE
When the battery charger is connected to the electrical mains, all machine functions are automatically cut off.
During charging, one of the 6 LEDs of the battery icon (5) will remain steadily on to indicate the percentage of charging
performed, while the other LEDs (to the left of the LED which is on steadily) will ash sequentially.
4. When the 6th LED of the battery icon (5) is lit steadily, battery charging is complete.
5. Disconnect the battery charger from the mains and from the machine socket (29).
6. Open the battery compartment cover (26) and place the battery charger in its tray (28).
7. Close the battery compartment (26).
