1.3 Transporting the machine
CAUTION - THIS MACHINE IS HEAVY
Do not attempt to lift the machine without assistance.
Incorrect lifting techniques may result in personal injury.
We advise that the manual handling regulations are
followed. Please refer to the technical table for details on
weight of machine. CAUTION – When lifting the machine
the brush head is free to tip backwards, ensure fingers are
kept well clear of the side arms of the chassis. When
moving the machine the handle should be locked and the
machine tilted back on its wheels. Do not lift or transport
the machine whilst containing liquid as this will add
considerably to the weight. When transporting the
machine ensure that all components, tanks and
removable parts are securely fastened. Take extreme
care when moving the machine up or down steps or stairs.
CAUTION – Bumping over thresholds, kerbs and similar
obstacles can damage the machine. Small obstacles can
be overcome by pulling the machine backwards.

pins.
•IMPORTANT - Never allow the brush head to rest on
the drive pins, always tip brush head back when not in
use.
•Always keep brushes and pads in sets of three, to

UK only
The supply cord for 230v models is fitted with a plug
containing a 13 amp fuse. Should the fuse require
replacement it must only be replaced by a 13 amp
fuse conforming to BS1362, and the fuse cover must
be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost the plug must not
be used until the correct replacement cover is fitted.
Should an extension cord be used, ensure cord rating
is adequate for the equipment. Do not use extension
cord in coiled condition as this could result in
overheating of the cord. The power supply cord plus
any extension leads should not exceed 30 m in total.
The cross-section of any extension cable wiring must
be at least 2, 5 mm².
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
