6. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE:
6.1.
Before any servicing or maintenance work is carried out on the
machine and before any parts are replaced:
-
drain both tanks completely,
-
unplug the plug from the charger from the charger socket,
-
turn off the key switch.
6.2.
The electrodes in the dirty water tank should always be kept
clean and in their original position. By modifying the distance
between them, or between the electrodes and the tank, the
power cut-off mechanism may not activate correctly.
6.3.
Clean the dirty water tank thoroughly and regularly to prevent the
formation of unpleasant odours and bacteria. Tilt the tank to
facilitate cleaning.
6.4.
The tank lid should always be left open between cleaning
sessions to enable the internal surface to dry out. Never place
heavy objects on the top lid as this could warp it.
6.5.
After each cleaning session, clean the outside of the machine to
remove any chemical residues which could accelerate wear and
affect the appearance of the materials.
6.6.
The filter in the clean water tank should be cleaned regularly
twice a week.
6.7.
Check the state of the squeegee blades regularly and if
necessary turn them over or replace them. See also sections 5.5.
and 5.6.
6.8.
Perform battery maintenance regularly to maintain their efficiency
and extend their working life. They are expensive and should be
kept in good condition.
6.9.
The outlet slits on the suction motor should be checked and
cleaned regularly, especially where there is a considerable
amount of fluff in the atmosphere.
6.10.
A general control by authorised Gansow personnel is
recommended at least once every six months.
