TARGET GROUP
STORING THE USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
ON CONSIGNMENT OF THE MACHINE
The aim of this manual is to provide customers with all the information needed to use the machine
in the safest, most appropriate and most autonomous way. This includes information concerning
technical aspects, safety, operation, downtime, maintenance, spare parts and scrapping. The operators
and qualified technicians must carefully read the instructions in this manual before carrying out any
operations on the machine. If in doubt about the correct interpretation of instructions, contact your
nearest Customer Service Centre to obtain the necessary clarifications.
This manual is written both for operators and for qualified machine maintenance technicians. Operators
must not perform operations that should be carried out by qualified technicians. The manufacturer is not
liable for damages resulting from failure to comply with this veto.
The Use and Maintenance Manual must be stored in its special pouch close to the machine, protected
from liquids and anything else that could compromise its legibility.
When the machine is consigned to the customer, an immediate check must be performed to ensure all
the material mentioned in the shipping documents has been received, and also to check the machine
has not suffered damage during transportation. If this is the case, the carrier must ascertain the extent
of the damage at once, informing our customer service office. It is only by prompt action of this type that
the missing material can be obtained, and compensation for damage successfully claimed.
IDENTIFICATION DATA
For technical assistance or to request replacement parts, always give the model, the version and the
serial number (written on the relevant plate).
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
INTENDED USE
SAFETY
The
MAXIMA2017
is a floor scrubbing machine that can work on various types of floor and dirt thanks to
the mechanical action of a brush and the chemical action of a water-detergent solution. As it advances,
it collects the dirt removed, along with the detergent solution not absorbed by the flooring itself.
The
machine must only be used for this purpose
.
This scrubbing machine was designed and built for the cleaning (scrubbing and drying) of smooth,
compact flooring in the commercial, residential and industrial sectors by a qualified operator in proven
safety conditions. The scrubbing machine is not suitable for cleaning rugs or carpet floors. It is only
suitable for use in closed (or at least covered) places.
ATTENTION:
the machine is not suitable for use in the rain, or under water jets.
IT IS FORBIDDEN
to use the machine for picking up dangerous dusts or inflammable liquids in
places with an explosive atmosphere. In addition, it is not suitable as a means of transport for
people or objects.
Operator cooperation is paramount for accident prevention. No accident prevention programme can
be effective without the full cooperation of the person directly responsible for machine operation. The
majority of occupational accidents that happen either in the workplace or whilst moving are caused by
failure to respect the most basic safety rules. An attentive, careful operator is most effective guarantee
against accidents and is fundamental in order to implement any prevention programme.
INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
Any floor scrubbing machine can only work properly and effectively if used correctly and kept in full
working order by performing the maintenance operations described in the attached documentation. We
therefore suggest you read this instruction booklet carefully and read it again whenever difficulties arise
while using the machine. If necessary, remember that our assistance service (organised in collaboration
with our dealers) is always available for advice or direct intervention.
SERIAL NUMBER PLATE
CONVENTIONS
The serial number plate is located above the electric system panel, inside the machine. It shows the
general machine characteristics, in particular the serial number. The serial number is a very important
piece of information and should always be provided together with any request for assistance or to
purchase spare parts.
All references to forwards and backwards, front and rear, right and left indicated in this manual should
