Draining Off Clean Water
Use the individual protection devices suitable for the operation to be performed.
Perform the draining off operations with the machine disconnected from the power
supply.
To empty the tank:
• Take the machine next to a drain;
• Stop the machine and press the emergency button (fig. 8, ref. 2);
engage the parking brake by means of the pedal (fig. 8, ref. 12);
• Detach the drain hose (fig. 16, ref. 1) from its seat, holding it in
correspondence with the fixing spring (fig. 16, ref. 2) and pull it
horizontally;
• Keeping the hose end as much high as possible, take off the drain cap
(fig. 16, ref. 3) from the hose by unscrewing it;
• Lower the hose end gradually, checking the intensity of the jet of water
with reference to its height from the ground;
• When the contents have been totally drained from the solution tank,
close the drain cap (fig. 16, ref. 3) screw-tightening it; check that it is
perfectly closed and refit the hose in its housing;
The water and detergent solution can also be used to wash the recovery tank.
Periods Of Inactivity
If the machine is to remain unused for a long time, the squeegee and brushes (or drive
discs or rollers) must be dismounted, washed and kept in a dry place (preferably packed
in a plastic envelope or sheet), sheltered from dust. Park the machine with the parking
brake engaged.
Furthermore, make sure that the tanks are completely empty and perfectly clean.
Recharge the batteries completely before putting them in the storehouse. During long
periods of inactivity recharge the batteries (once every two months at least) to preserve
the storage batteries constantly at the maximum charge.
Maintenance And Battery Recharging
Do not check the battery charge by producing sparks. The batteries give off inflammable
vapours: put out any fire or embers before checking and filling up the batteries. Perform the operations described below in airy
environments.
To avoid permanent damages to the batteries, never let them get flat completely. Remember that when the proper red led (fig. 8,
ref. 9) flashes on the control panel, it is necessary to recharge the batteries.
Recharging Procedures
Lead Batteries With Liquid Electrolyte
It is necessary to check the level of the electrolytic solution in order that it always covers the films of the elements, adding the
necessary distilled water.
During recharging do not let the temperature of the electrolyte exceed 45°C.
