BATTERY INSTALLATION AND SETTING OF 
THE BATTERY TYPE

This machine is equipped with two batteries 
at 12V in serial connection, placed in its 
appropriate compartment under the recovery 
tank and must be handled using suitable 
lifting equipment (due to weight and coupling 
system).  The batteries must be in accordance 
with CEI 21-5 Norms. The connection of the 
batteries' cables has to be carried out by 
specialized staff, 

because the inversion of polarity causes the 
damage of the electrical components.  Before 
the machine is supplied with power, check that 
the red cable is connected to the + pole of the 
battery.

For batteries installation proceed as follows:
1. Take off the squeegee hose (1).
2. Take off the suction cover (2) after turning 
the blocking levers (3).
3. Take off the recovery tank (4).
4. Place the batteries in its compartment.
5. Connect the terminals, respecting the 
polarities, avoiding contact with tools that 
could create short circuit.
6. Reassemble all parts.

The machine and the signal lamp of the 
battery charge level (1) foresee the use of 
traditional lead batteries.  In case of GEL 
batteries installation, it is necessary to carry 
out a specific adjustment. Please contact the 
authorized technical assistance.
