MACHINE OPERATION DURATION
WARNING: Fire or explosion hazard: Please do not pick up ammable materials or
reactive metals.
1. Recommend each cleaning path overlaps by 2”.
2. Let the machine advance constantly to avoid ground damage.
3. If there is drag mark on the ground after the squeegee absorbs water, check the squeegee blade for
debris, and clean accordingly.
4. Do not operate the machine on the slope with a slope over 5% (3°).
5. If there is too much foam entering the wastewater tank, check the foamer/detergent concentration
and adjust accordingly.
Note: Do not let the foam enter the lter screen so as to avoid damage to vacuum motor. The foam
will make the switch of the lter screen invalid.
6. Replace or rotate the pad as required.
7. Observe the power consumption of the battery power meter.
8. Observe the residual liquid amount through the freshwater meter of the clean water tank. For
traditional scrubbing operations, the consumption is typically 10 liters of uid for each 10 minutes of
operation, roughly one liter per minute.
9. When the solution in the clean water tank is used up, empty the waste water tank by accessing the
waste water drain hose of the back of the machine, then re-pour the cleaning solution.
10. To stop machine operation, remove
foot from drive pedal, select OFF on
the Yellow control switch, park on level
ground and remove the power key.

BATTERY POWER METER
The battery power meter will display the
power quantity of the battery. When the
battery is full of power, all indicator lights
will be on. Along with the consumption of
the power quantity, the indicator lights
will go out from the right to the left. To
prolong the life of the battery, do not let
the indicator lights go out to below the
following power consumption.
Hint: To prolong the life of the battery,
please ensure to charge the battery after
the total use time of the machine exceeds
30min.
After each use, the wastewater tank shall be drained and cleaned. The clean water tank shall be periodically
cleaned to remove any corroded parts. Carry the machine to the drainage place, switch o the key of the
power supply, and drain the water according to the following drainage instructions:
DRAINAGE OF WATER TANK
FOR SAFETY: 4. Before leaving or maintaining the machine:
DRAINAGE OF WASTEWATER TANK
1. Unscrew the drain hose cover of the
waste water tank drain hose counter-
clockwise and drop the hose into waste
water drain.
2. Open the cover of the waste water
tank and ush the waste water tank with
a hose using fresh water.
3. Rinse the waste water lter screen and
remove any debris from inside the waste
water tank.

17
BATTERY CHARGING
Note: To prolong the life of the battery and ensure the optimum eciency of the machine, the battery
must be charged after the use time of the machine exceeds 30min. Please do not allow the battery to re-
main uncharged for long.
The following charging instructions are suitable for the charger. Please ensure to use the charger provided
with the machine to avoid battery damage. The specication of the battery charger:
1. Move the machine to the place with good ventilation for charging.
2. Stop and place the machine on the level ground and turn the key to the close position.
3. When charging, tilt back and leave open the waste water tank to facilitate ventilation.
4. Plug the AC (alternating current) power cord of the charger to the power socket with sound grounding.
5. Plug the red DC (direct current) power cord of the charger to the battery charging socket located on the
steering column of the machine.
6. The charger will automat-
ically start charging and will
automatically switch o
when charging is complete
and the batteries are fully
charged.
Hint: The machine will not
work when being connected
to the charger.
Note: during the charging of the charger, please do not pull the DC cord of the charger out of the socket
of the machine to avoid generation of arc strike. If the charging must be suspended during the charging,
please pull out the AC power cord rst.
• Charger type: - charger for aluminum acid battery
