The floor wiper, also called squeegee (fig. 2, ref. 8), is the first responsible for drying. To install the squeegee on the machine proceed
as follows:
1.
Stop the machine and press the emergency button (fig. 8, ref. 2); engage the parking brake by means of the pedal (fig. 9, ref. 5);
2.
Check that the squeegee supporting plate (fig. 9, ref. 2) is raised, otherwise lift it by acting on the proper lever (fig. 9, ref. 6);
3.
Firmly push down the sleeve of the suction tube (fig. 9, ref. 4) into the squeegee;
4.
Slacken the two knobs (fig. 9, ref. 3) placed in the centre of the squeegee;
5.
Insert the two threaded dowels in the slots of the support (fig. 9, ref. 2);
6.
Fix the squeegee by tightening the knobs (fig. 9, ref. 3).
The blades of the squeegee are used to scrub from the floor the film of water and detergent thus allowing a perfect drying. As long
as time goes by the continuous scraping rounds off and splits the sharp edge in contact with the floor, thus reducing the drying
efficacy and therefore requiring the replacement of the blades. Therefore, often check their state of wear and tear.
To obtain a perfect drying action it is necessary to adjust the squeegee in such a way that when it is in operation, the rear blade lip
is bent about 45 degrees with respect to the floor at all points. It is possible to adjust the inclination of the blades by screwing down
the nuts (fig. 9, ref. 1): by unscrewing the nuts the blade inclination is reduced, while by screwing the nuts the blade inclination is
increased. Moreover, check that the suction hole of the squeegee is not clogged, to let dirty water to be perfectly drained from the
floor.
Moving The Machine
To displace the machine, do as follows:
•
Lift the squeegee;
•
Raise the head by pressing the brush up-down button (fig. 8, ref. 5) on the arrow up;
•
Disengage the parking brake via the pedal (fig. 8, ref. 12);
•
Insert the key to release the emergency button (fig. 8, ref. 2);
•
Below the handgrip is a lever (fig. 8, ref. 6): by pulling the lever up (fig. 10, ref. 2) or pressing it down (fig. 10, ref. 1), according to
whether you wish to move forward or back, the drive motor is switched on and the machine will begin to move;
•
Adjust the running speed via the potentiometer (fig. 8, ref. 1);
•
Once you have reached your destination, engage the parking brake via the pedal (fig. 8, ref. 12).
Never leave the machine unmanned or parked with the parking brake disengaged or the key inserted in the emergency button. Do not
engage the parking brake when the machine is moving.
Installing And Replacing The Brushes / Drive Discs / Rollers
Do not work if the brushes or drive discs are not perfectly installed.
Brush Head
Removing:
•
Raise the head by pressing the brush up-down button (fig. 8, ref. 5) on the arrow up;
•
Press the brush release button (fig. 8, ref. 4) for a couple of seconds: when the button is released, the brushes will be released.
Fitting:
•
Position the brushes side by side at the front of the machine;
•
Move forward with the machine until the head is positioned above the brushes and they are centred;
•
Press the brush up-down button (fig. 8, ref. 5) on the arrow down and keep it pressed until the second led of the brush pressure
indicator comes on (fig. 8, ref. 8); in this phase the brush motor may come on and then switch off for a few moments: this is a
normal part of the brush engagement procedure.
In particular conditions, the brushes may not engage correctly. In this case the head will vibrate. The brushes must be disassembled and
refitted.
If you wish to use the ABRASIvE DISCS instead of the brushes, they must firstly be fitted on the drive discs: rest the pad on the
drive disc, placing it exactly in the centre, and fix it with the center lock ring nut. The drive discs must then be fitted on the machine
following exactly the same procedure as for the brushes. Fully tighten the drive disc flange via the handle provided in order to
prevent the flange dragging on the ground and damaging the floor.
