REGULATING THE FORWARD SPEED
This machine is equipped with electronic traction control. During work, the forward speed can be adjusted by pressing the operator lever (4)
located under the control handlebars (
Fig.6
).
N.B.:
The more the lever (4) is pressed, the more the forward speed will increase.
REVERSE GEAR
This machine is equipped with electronic traction control. To reverse, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the brush head body and depress the "BRUSH HEAD BODY CONTROL" pedal (2) at the rear of the machine fully (
Fig.10
).
N.B.:
to lock the brush head in the raised position, depress the pedal (2) fully and then move it towards the right-hand side of the machine
(
Fig.10
).
N.B.:
if the brush head body is left in contact with the floor, the gearmotor will continue functioning but the solenoid valve will stop
dispensing detergent solution on the brush.
2. Raise the squeegee body and turn the squeegee control lever (3) in the direction of the arrow (
Fig.11
); the lever is located on the back of
the machine.
3. Press the “REVERSE ACTIVATION - DEACTIVATION” button (7) on the control handlebars (
Fig.12
).
N.B.:
As soon as the button (7) is pressed, the word “BACK” will appear on the control display (
Fig.13
).
4. Activate the dead man's levers (4) on the handlebars (
Fig.6
) to start moving the machine in reverse mode.
WARNING:
the reverse speed is lower than the forward speed to comply with current health and safety standards. If the potentiometer is
adjusted while reversing, the adjustment of the forward speed will be automatically changed.
WARNING:
It is impossible to reverse if the squeegee body touches the floor. In order to reverse, lift the squeegee body from the floor
using the relevant lever on the back of the machine.
N.B.:
to disable reverse movement, press the button (7) on the control handlebars again.
BATTERY DISCONNECT SWITCH
If any serious problems are encountered during the work operations, press the battery disconnect button (8) on the electrical system carter
(
Fig. 14
).
CAUTION:
This command interrupts the electrical circuit between the batteries and the machine system.
N.B.:
To recommence work having stopped and once the problem has been resolved, switch off the machine and turn the knob (8) in the
direction of the arrows indicated on it.
ECO MODE
This machine has an Eco-Mode function for reducing the noise generated by the vacuum motor, and for reducing the energy used by the
machine.
To activate or deactivate this function, just press the button (6) on the instrument panel for at least three seconds (
Fig.8
).
N.B.:
When the Eco-Mode function is active, the word “ECO” will flash on the control display (
Fig.15
).
To disable the Eco-mode function, simply press the button (6).
If the dead man's lever (4) is released when performing a scrubbing with drying operation in Eco-Mode (
Fig.6
), both the traction motor and the
brush motor, along with the solenoid valve, will stop working, while the vacuum motor will continue to function until it is raised off the floor.
N.B.:
To recommence work, simply press the dead man's lever (4) and the traction motor will start immediately; the brush motor; the
solenoid valve.
RECOVERY TANK OVERFLOW
The machine is equipped with a mechanical device (float) under the recovery tank lid that, when the recovery tank is full, shuts off the air to the
vacuum motor intake to protect it; the sound of the vacuum motor will then be deeper.
If this is the case, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the brush head body and depress the "BRUSH HEAD BODY CONTROL" pedal (2) at the rear of the machine fully (
Fig.10
).
N.B.:
to lock the brush head in the raised position, depress the pedal (2) fully and then move it towards the right-hand side of the machine
(
Fig.10
).
2.
Raise the squeegee body off the floor by means of the lever (3) on the back of the machine (
Fig.11
).
