2.4 SPECIFIC USE
The operator drive the machine manually.
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 pro-
hibited.
Please refer very carefully to the safety information
reported in this manual. The scrubber-drier distrib-
utes 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 ma-
chine's suction system, using a ground squeegee,
perfectly dries the liquids and the dirt just removed
from the front brush 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.
