SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
RECOMMENDED USE
The LAVINA® V-20 Vacuum is designed and manufactured for
use with concrete, terrazzo and natural stone oors. It is recom-
mended for use with LAVINA® machines. This vacuum is rated
for dry use only, and with a machine of appropriate size. For more
information, please contact Superabrasive.

• For applications different from those stated in this manual
• For non-suitable materials (asbestos or other toxic materials)
• In environments which (1) Possess the risk of explosion, (2

in the air, (3) Possess the risk of re, (4) Feature inclem-
ent conditions, (5) Possess electromagnetic radiation
• The vacuum should be not connected to electrical power
when performing maintenance-related tasks
PREPARATION FOR WORK
Ensure that:
• You have closed the work area, so that no person unfamiliar
with operating the vacuum can enter the area
• The vacuum is not missing parts
• The vacuum is in an upright, working position
• All protection devices are working properly
• The electrical cable is free to move and follow the vacuum
easily. In order to keep the electrical cable from being
damaged, no vehicle should enter the area where electrical
cables are present.

• Button to stop the motor
SAFE USE
The LAVINA® V20 is designed to eliminate all potential risks as-
sociated with its use. However, accidents may occur if unskilled or
uninstructed workers fail to heed the list of potential risks below:
• Position Risks due to operator’s incorrect working position
• Tangling Risks due to wearing inappropriate working clothes
• Training Risks due to lack of operational training
NOTE: Machine operators should follow the instructions in the
manual at all times.
RESIDUAL RISKS
During normal operating and maintenance cycles, the operator is
exposed to some residual risks, which cannot be eliminated due
to the nature of machine operation.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• The working area must be clear from any debris or objects.
• A rst-time operator must always read the manual and heed
all safety instructions.
• All electric connections and cables must be inspected for
potential damage.
• Ground wire system of the power supply must be also
inspected.
• Perform general daily inspections of the vacuum and inspect
the vacuum before each use for any sign of damage.
• Inspect all safety devices.
• The vacuum/lters must be clean and the hose should be
connected.
OPERATING THE VACUUM
When operating the LAVINA® V20, be sure that no one else is
within close proximity to the vacuum. Never leave the vacuum
unattended while working. The electrical cable and hose must
move freely, be damage-free, and should never run beneath the
vacuum or machine. Check the oor prior to beginning any work,
and ensure that it’s not too uneven, which can cause damage to
the vacuum.

sufciently, empty all dust / debris, unplug the vacuum and wind
up the electrical cable, secure the hose, and store the vacuum in a
safe and secure place.

Ensure that the area is free of unauthorized people or vehicles,
secure all cables and hoses, and always check the oor for debris.

protectors, safety gloves (especially when changing tools), and
suitable clothing. All persons within the immediate working area
must wear safety glasses with side shields.
OPERATOR
The operator must be aware of the vacuum’s work environment,
be properly trained prior to operating the equipment, and fully
understand this manual. Only one operator may work with the
machine at a single time The operator must understand and
interpret all the drawings and designs in manual, understand all
sanitation and safety regulations pertaining to its operation, have
oor grinding experience, know how to perform in an emergency
situation, and have an adequate technical knowledge and prepa-
ration.
