ASSEMBLING THE BRUSH (50BT VERSIONS)
For packaging reasons, the brush is supplied disassembled from the machine. To assemble it on the
brush head body, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure the machine has been secured (see “
CAUTION:
users are advised to always wear protective gloves, to avoid the risk of serious
injury to hands.
2. Raise the brush head body and fully depress the "BRUSH HEAD CONTROL" pedal (1) at the
rear of the machine (
Fig.1
).
NB
:
to lock the brush head in the raised position, depress the pedal (1) fully and then move it
towards the right-hand side of the machine (
Fig.6
).
3. With the brush head up, insert the brush in the plate housing underneath the brush head, turning
it until the three buttons engage with the notches on the plate itself (
Fig.2
).
4. Turn until the pin is pushed towards the coupling spring and is locked into place.

3. With the brush head in the raised position, press the brush-holder plate retainer (2) and
simultaneously rotate the brush in the direction shown in the image (
Fig.2
).
ATTENTION
:
Fig.2
shows the rotation direction of the left-hand brush, rotate in the opposite
direction for the right-hand brush.
4. When brush rotation is prevented, turn until the button on the brush is engaged in the coupling
spring on the brush-holder plate.
5. Repeat the operations completed for the right-hand front brush as well.

ASSEMBLING THE SQUEEGEE BODY
For packaging reasons, the squeegee body comes disassembled from the machine. To assemble it
on the squeegee support, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure the machine is in a safe condition (see “
”).
2. Raise the squeegee body and turn the squeegee control lever (1) in the direction of the arrow
(
Fig.1
). The lever is located on the back of the machine.
CAUTION
: these operations must be carried out using protective gloves to avoid any possible
contact with the edges or tips of metal objects.
3. Unscrew the knobs (2) in the squeegee body pre-assembly (
Fig.2
).
4. First of all, insert the left-hand pin (3) on the squeegee body in the left slit (4) in the squeegee
support (
Fig.3
), so that the bushing (5) adheres to the walls of the slit.
5. Repeat the same operation for the right-hand pin.

FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK WITH WATER
Before filling the solution tank, carry out the following steps:
1.
Take the machine to the usual place for filling the solution tank.
2. Make sure the machine is in a safe condition (see “
”).
3. Check the solution tank drainage cap (1) (on the rear right-hand side of the machine) is tight. If it
isn't, turn it clockwise (
Fig.1
).
4.
Check the water filter cap (2) (on the rear right-hand side of the machine) is tight. If it isn't, turn it
clockwise (
Fig.2
).

The solution tank can be filled with water in three different ways:
•
Removing the cap/measuring device (3) (
Fig.3
) and filling the solution tank by means of a rubber
tube or a bucket (
Fig.4
).
•
Using the filler tube (4) (
Fig.5
), which supports the water tube on its own. In this case, remember
to remove the cap/measuring device (3) to ensure the air is properly vented.
•
Using the optional system for automatic clean water top-up. This system has a float for avoiding
any overflow.

5. Fill with clean water, at a temperature not higher than 50°C and not lower than 10°C. The amount
inside the tank can be seen by means of the level tube (5) (
Fig.6
) on the rear left-hand side of
the machine.

DETERGENT SOLUTION
After filling the solution tank with clean water add the liquid detergent to the tank in the concentration
and manner indicated on the detergent manufacturer's label. To prevent the formation of an excessive
amount of foam that could damage the vacuum motor, use the minimum percentage of detergent
required.
CAUTION
: protective gloves should always be worn before handling detergents or acidic or
alkaline solutions, to avoid serious injury to the hands.
CAUTION
: always use detergents whose manufacturer's label indicates their suitability for
scrubbing machines. Do not use acid or alkaline products or solvents without this indication.
ATTENTION
: acid or alkaline maintenance detergents can be used, as long as they have pH
values between 4 and 10, and do not contain: oxidising agents, chlorine or bromine,
formaldehyde, mineral solvents. The detergents used must be suitable for use with scrubbing
machines.
CAUTION
: always use low-foam detergent. To avoid the production of foam, put a minimum
quantity of anti foam liquid in the recovery tank before starting to clean. Do not use pure acids.
NB
: to make it easier to measure the detergent on the cap/measuring device, there are notches
indicating the detergent percentage quantities that can be used. The notches range from a
minimum of 0.1% to a maximum of 0.5%.
