2.4 SPECIFIC USE

This machine is a floor scrubber-drier: it must be
used to scrub and to vacuum liquids of flat, rigid,
horizontal, smooth or moderately rough and uni-
form floors that are free from obstacles in both
civic and industrial environments. Any other use
is prohibited.
Please refer very carefully to the safety information
reported in this manual.
The scrubber-drier distributes a quantity of a
water and detergent solution (adjustable) on the
surface to be cleaned, while the brushes remove
any dirt on the ground. The machine's suction sys-
tem, using a ground squeegee, perfectly dries the
liquids and the dirt just removed from the front
brushes in a single pass.
By efficiently combining a cleaning detergent with
various types of brushes (or abrasive disks), the
machine can adapt to all the various combinations
of floors and dirt.
