3. PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR THE OPERATOR:
3.1.
*IMPORTANT -
Seal the battery cells by screwing on the caps.
* Not relevant to maintenance free gel batteries
3.2.
After turning the charger off, unplug the connection lead from the
charger from the battery socket to power the machine.
3.3.
Lift the top lid and use a hose or bucket to fill the clean water tank (on
the left) with cold water up to a maximum of 3 cm from the top of the
tank (the water should preferably be cold and in any case never
hotter than 60°C).
IMPORTANT!
Use low foam detergent as excessive foam could
jeopardise the efficiency and function of the machine.
Close the top lid, lifting slightly on the hinge side to make sure it fits perfectly to
the tank.
IMPORTANT!
If the lid does not fit perfectly, there would be no vacuum at
the squeegee
and therefore no flow-back of liquid to the collection tank (on the
right). If necessary, repeat the operation correctly.
Avoid resting heavy objects on the lid as this could warp it and prevent it from
fitting perfectly to the tank.
3.4.
Make sure the cap of the dirty water tank (on the right) drain hose is
correctly in place. Perfect closure of the cap is essential to obtain a
vacuum in the collection tank and therefore maximum suction power.
3.5.
Turn the key switch clockwise to start the machine.
3.6.
Light pressure and a slight sideways movement of the pedal release
the brushes which are lowered in contact with the ground.
3.7.
To activate brush rotation, press the corresponding button on the left
side of the control panel.
MACHINES WITH DIAPHRAGM:
Pressing this button opens the
water solenoid valve and turns the water pump on.
Turn the knob on the control panel clockwise to adjust the quantity
of water to the brushes (from 0 to 7 litres).
