Battery discharge during operation

Until the green warning light (A, Figure. 12) stays on, the

batteries allow the machine to work normally. When the green

warning light (A) turns off, and the yellow warning light (B)

turns on, it is advisable to charge the batteries, because the

remaining charge will last for a few minutes (depending on

battery characteristics and work to be performed). When the

red warning light (C) turns on, batteries are fully discharged.

After a few seconds, the brush/pad-holder is automatically

tuned off, while (only for machine with traction) the drive

system stay on, to finish drying the floor and drive the machine

to the appointed recharging area.

CAUTION!

Do not use the machine with discharged

batteries, to avoid damaging the batteries and

reducing the battery life.

TANK EMPTYING

An automatic float shut-off system (A, Figure. 13) blocks the

vacuum system when the recovery water tank (B) is full. The

vacuum system deactivation is signaled by a sudden increase in

the vacuum system motor noise frequency, also the floor has

not dried.

CAUTION!

If the vacuum system turns off accidentally

(for example, when the float is activated

because of a sudden machine movement), to

resume the operation: turn off the vacuum

system by pressing the switch (D, Figure. 12),

then open the cover (C, Figure. 13) and check

that the float inside the grid (A) has gone

down to the water level. Then close the cover

pressing the switch (D, Figure. 12).

When the recovery water tank (B, Figure. 13) is full, empty it

according to the following procedure.

Recovery water tank emptying

1. Stop the machine.

2. Lift the brush/pad-holder deck (E, Figure.12) by pressing

the pedal (F). (only for disc machine)

3. Lift the squeegee (G) with the lever (H).

4. Drive the machine to the appointed disposal area.

5. Empty the recovery water tank with the hose (I). Then, rinse

the tank (B, Figure. 13) with clean water.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE ENGLISH

CAUTION!

When draining the wastewater, the vacuum

tube for waste must be folded (A, Figure.

14) and lowered to a lower position (B,

Figure. 14), and then open the lid of the

vacuum tube for waste to drain the water.

Do not make the outlet of the vacuum tube

for waste face upward to drain the water

vertically. This is to avoid wastewater

spilling onto the operator.

6. Perform steps 1 to 4.

Solution/clean water tank emptying

7. Empty the solution tank with the hose (A, Figure. 15). After

working, rinse the tank with clean water.

AFTER USING THE MACHINE

After working, before leaving the machine:

1. Remove the brushes/pad-holders.

2. Empty the tanks (B and C, Figure. 15) as shown in the

previous paragraph.

3. Perform the daily maintenance procedures (see the

Maintenance chapter).

4. Store the machine in a clean and dry place, with the brushes/

pad-holders and the squeegee lifted or removed.

MACHINE LONG INACTIVITY

If the machine is not going to be used for more than 30 days,

proceed as follows:

1. Perform the procedures shown in After Using the machine

paragraph.

2. Disconnect the battery connector (38).

FIRST PERIOD OF USE

After the first 8 hours, check the machine fastening and

connecting parts for proper tightening and check the visible

parts for wear and leakage.

BATTERY CHARGING

NOTE

Charge the batteries when the yellow (G,

Figure. 16) or red warning light (H) turns

on, or when finishing cleaning.

CAUTION!

Keeping the batteries charged make their

life last longer.

CAUTION!

When the batteries are discharged, charge

them as soon as possible, as that condition

makes their life shorter. Check for battery

charge at least once a week.

WARNING!

WET battery charging produces highly

explosive hydrogen gas. Charge the

batteries in well-ventilated areas and away

from naked flames. Do not smoke while

charging the batteries. Keep the tank open

while charging the batteries.

WARNING!

Pay careful attention when charging the

batteries as there may be battery fluid

leakages. The battery fluid is corrosive. If

it comes in contact with skin or eyes, rinse

thoroughly with water and consult a

physician.

Preliminary procedures

1. Open the cover (A, Figure. 16) and check that the recovery

water tank (B) is empty, otherwise empty it with the drain

hose (C).

2. Drive the machine on a level floor.

3. Turn the ignition key (F) to "0".

4. Carefully lift the tank (B).

5. For WET batteries only:

•Check the level of electrolyte inside the batteries (D); if necessary, top up through the caps (E).

•Leave all the battery caps (E) open for next charging.

•If necessary, clean the upper surface of the batteries (D).

6. Charge the batteries according to the following procedure.

machine

7. Connect the battery charger cable (A, Figure. 17) to the

electrical mains (G) (the electrical mains voltage and

frequency must be compatible with the battery charger values

shown on the machine serial number plate (F). When the

battery charger is connected to the electrical mains, all

machine functions are automatically cut off. If the red

warning light (B) on the battery charger control panel stays

on, the battery charger is charging the batteries.

8. When the green warning light (C) turns on, the battery

charging is completed.

9. When the battery charging is completed, disconnect the

battery charger cable (A) from the electrical mains (G) and

wind it round its housing (D).

10. Carefully lower the tank.

NOTE

For further information about the operation

of the battery charger (E, Figure. 17), see the

relevant Manual.

BRUSH/PAD CLEANING

CAUTION!

It is advisable to use protective gloves when cleaning the brush/pad because there may be sharp

debris.
