to hands.
3. Release the recovery tank drainage tube (on the back of the machine) from the retainers (
Fig.1
).
4. Bend the end of the drainage tube in order to create a choke and prevent the content from coming
out (
Fig.2
), then position the tube on the discharge surface, unscrew the cap, and gradually
release the tube.
NB
: the place designated for this operation must comply with current environmental protection
regulations.
5. Repeat the operations in reverse order to reassemble all the parts.
CLEANING THE SQUEEGEE BODY
The careful cleaning of the whole vacuum unit ensures better drying and cleaning of the floor as well as
a longer vacuum motor life. To clean the squeegee body, proceed as follows:
1. Take the machine to the maintenance area.
2. Make sure the machine is in a safe condition (see “
MACHINE SAFETY MEASURES
”).
CAUTION
: these operations must be carried out using protective gloves to avoid any possible

).
ATTENTION
:
Fig.2
shows the rotation direction of the left-hand brush.
6. When brush rotation is prevented, turn until the button on the brush is disengaged from the
coupling spring on the brush-holder plate.
7. Repeat the same operation for the right-hand brush.
8. Clean the brush under running water to remove any impurities from its bristles. Check the bristles
are not worn; in the event of excessive wear, replace the brush (the bristles should be at least
10mm long). When replacing the brush, read "
