adjusting knob (17, Fig. H) counter-clockwise; the
machine speed decreases turning the adjusting knob
clockwise.

FIRST PERIOD OF USE
After the first period of use (first 8 hours) it is necessary to
check that the fastening and connecting elements are
correctly tightened, that the visible parts are integral and that
there are no leaks.
DANGER!
Be careful: the rotating brush must not come in
contact with the supply cable (23, Fig. C) while
the machine is working.
CAUTION!
To avoid any damage to the floor surface, stop
the brush rotation by means of the switch (2,
Fig. B) when the machine stops in one place.
CAUTION!
Before lifting the brush/pad-holder, stop its
rotation by means of the switch (2, Fig. B).
NOTE
An automatic float cut-off system (8, Fig. H)
locks the vacuum system once the recovery
tank (5) is full.
The vacuum system locking is signaled by a
sudden increase in the vacuum motor noise
frequency.
