o When the brush and suction motor commands are disabled (off) and the button
is held down for at least 5 seconds, the machine performs the automatic brush
release manoeuvre.
• Brush pressure light (fig. 6, ref. 17 - CT70 ECS, CT40 BT60 ECS models): consists
of 4 green LEDs which indicate pressure of the brush/microfibre on the surface to be
cleaned.
6.2. Mounting and adjusting the squeegee
The squeegee (fig. 2, ref. 6) is responsible for the first phase of drying.
To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows:
1) check that the squeegee mount (fig. 7, ref. 2) is raised, otherwise lift it by means of the
squeegee lever (fig. 7, ref. 5);
2) insert the suction hose sleeve (fig. 7, ref. 4) fully into the squeegee;
3) slacken the two knobs (fig. 7, ref. 3) at the centre of the squeegee;
4) insert the two threaded pins into the slots on the support (fig. 7, ref. 2);
5) fix the squeegee by tightening the two knobs (fig. 7, ref. 3).
The squeegee blades scrape the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare
the way for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade
in contact with the floor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring
it to be replaced. The state of wear should be checked frequently.
For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear
blade bends during operation by about 45° with respect to the floor at every point The
angle of the blades can be adjusted using the screw (Fig. 7, ref. 1), while the height of the
squeegee from the floor can be adjusted using the screw (Fig. 7, ref. 6).
6.3. Moving the machine when not in operation
To move the machine, proceed as follows:
1) raise the squeegee;
2) push the head pedal down then to the right (fig. 6 ref. 9) to raise the head;
3) move the machine as follows:
- Versions with mechanical drive: push or pull;
- Versions with electric drive
(fig. 6 ref. 13), then operate the drive lever (fig. 6 ref. 7). To move the machine
backwards, press the selector (fig. 6 ref. 13), then operate the drive lever (fig. 6.
ref. 7);
speed can be varied by the potentiometer knob (fig. 6. ref. 11).
4) once you have reached your destination, lower the head by pressing the release
pedal (fig. 6 ref. 9) down and to the left, then release it.
Do not leave the machine unattended or parked with the head lifted or the key
6.4. Mounting and changing the brush/drive disks
Never work without the brushes, rollers and drive disks perfectly installed.
Fitting the brush (one-brush models): Rest the brush on the floor in front of the
machine and centre it with the guard.
