3.1. General description
This machine is a scrubber drier for sweeping, washing and drying flat, horizontal, smooth
or moderately rough, even and obstacle free floors in civil and industrial premises.
The scrubber drier spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration
on the floor and then scrubs it to remove the dirt. By carefully choosing the detergent and
brushes (or abrasive discs) from the wide range of accessories available, the machine can
be adapted to a wide range of combinations of types of floor and dirt.
A suction system incorporated in the machine dries the floor after washing by means of
the low pressure generated in the collection tank by the suction motor. The squeegee
connected to the tank collects the dirty water.
3.2. Legend
The main parts of the machine are as follows (fig. B):
• detergent solution tank (fig. B, ref. 1): contains and transports the mixture of clean
water and cleaning product;
• collection tank (fig. B, ref. 2): collects the dirty water picked up from the floor after
washing;
• control panel (fig. B, ref. 3);
• head assembly (fig. B, ref. 4): the main element is the brushes/rollers, the abrasive disk
or the microfibre disk (fig. B, ref. 5) which distribute the detergent solution on the floor
and remove the dirt;
• squeegee assembly (fig. B, ref. 6): wipes and dries the floor by collecting the water.
• CHEM DOSE solution tank (OPTIONAL) (fig. C, ref. 1)
• battery compartment (fig. C, ref. 2)
• battery charger (OPTIONAL) (fig. C, ref. 3)
3.3. Danger zones
A - Tank assembly: when using certain detergents, danger of irritation for eyes, skin,
mucous membranes and respiratory tract and of asphyxia. Danger represented by the
dirt collected from the environment (germs and chemical substances). Danger of
crushing between the two tanks when the collection tank is replaced on the solution
tank.
B - Control panel: danger of short circuit.
C -Bottom of washing head: danger due to brush rotation.
