Working with brush/pad-holder extra pressure function turned on (for Adfi nity™ X20R)
If the fl oor proves to be particularly diffi cult to clean, it is possible to turn on the brush/pad-holder extra pressure function by
pressing the pedal (11) to position (11c).
CAUTION!
In case of brush/pad-holder motor overload, due to foreign bodies which prevent them from turning, or to
excessively aggressive fl oors/brushes, the safety system stops the motor after about one minute of continuous
overload.
The overload is shown by the three warning leds (81a, 81b, 81c) fl ashing simultaneously.
If the overload takes place when the extra pressure function is on (11c), press the pedal to position (11b). If the
overload persists, the brush/pad-holder stops.
To start scrubbing again after a brush/pad-holder stop due to overload, stop the machine by turning the ignition
key (80) to "0". Turn on the machine by turning the ignition key (80) to "I".
Battery discharge during operation
Until the green warning led (81a) stays on, the batteries allow the machine to work normally.
When the green warning led (81a) turns off, and the yellow warning led (81b) turns on, it is advisable to charge the batteries,
because the residual autonomy will last for a few minutes (depending on battery characteristics and work to be performed).
When the red warning led (81c) turns on, the autonomy is over. After a few seconds, the brushes/pad-holders are automatically
tuned off, while the vacuum system and (for Adfi nity™ X20R) the drive system stay on, to fi nish drying the fl oor 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 fl oat shut-off system (36) stops the vacuum system when the recovery water tank (21) is full.
The vacuum system deactivation is signaled by a sudden increase in the vacuum system motor noise frequency, and the fl oor is not
dried.
CAUTION!
If the vacuum system turns off accidentally (for example, when the fl oat is activated because of a sudden
machine movement), to resume the operation: turn off the vacuum system by pressing the switch (73), then
open the cover (22) and check that the fl oat inside the grid (36) has gone down to the water level. Then close the
cover (22) and turn on the vacuum system by pressing the switch (73).
When the recovery water tank (21) is full, empty it according to the following procedure.
Recovery water tank emptying
1. Stop the machine.
2. Lift the brush/pad-holder deck by pressing the pedal (11).
3. Lift the squeegee (25) with the lever (10).
4. Drive the machine to the appointed disposal area.
5. Empty the recovery water tank by means of the hose (16). After working, rinse the tank with clean water. Use the removable
hose (9) (if equipped).
Solution/clean water tank emptying
6. Perform steps 1 to 4.
7. Empty the solution tank with the hose (17). After working, rinse the tank with clean water.

AFTER USING THE MACHINE

After working, before leaving the machine:
1. Remove the brush/pad-holder according to the procedure shown in the relevant paragraph.
2. Empty the tanks (20 and 21) according to the procedure shown in the relevant paragraphs.
3. Perform the daily maintenance procedures (see the Maintenance chapter).
4. Store the machine in a clean and dry place, with the brush/pad-holder 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 Machine Use paragraph.
2. Disconnect the battery connector (12).

FIRST PERIOD OF USE

After the fi rst 8 hours, check the machine fastening and connecting parts for proper tightening and check the visible parts for
integrity and leakage.
