Driving
DANGER
Lack of braking
Danger of accident
Before using the device, it is essential to check the func-
tion of the parking brake. Never use the device if the
parking brake does not work.
DANGER
No braking effect during operation
If the device no longer has any braking effect during op-
eration, proceed as follows:
If the device does not come to a standstill on a ramp with
a gradient of more than 2% when you release the accel-
22
erator pedal, for safety reasons you may only set the
safety switch to position "0" if you have checked the cor-
rect mechanical function of the parking brake before
starting up the device.
After reaching a standstill, put the device out of opera-
tion and call Customer Service.
Observe the maintenance instructions for brakes.
DANGER
Careless driving
Danger of tipping over
Only drive on slopes in the travel direction up to a max-
imum of 15% (RI variant) and 10% (RI Combo variant).
Slopes transverse to the travel direction up to a maxi-
mum of 15%.
Do not turn up or down gradients.
Drive slowly in corners and on wet ground.
Only drive the device on stable ground.
Pivoting sweeping mechanism on the Combo variant
Increased risk of accidents
Be especially careful when reversing.
Take the pivoting of the sweeping mechanism into ac-
count when steering.
Note
The travel direction can be changed while driving. This
allows very dull spots to be polished by moving back
and forth several times.
1. Assume a seated position.
2. Insert the Intelligent Key.
3. Set the program selection switch to "Transport trav-
el".
4. Set the travel direction using the travel direction but-
ton on the control panel.
5. Specify the travel speed by pressing the accelerator
pedal.

load. A fault message appears on the display. If the con-
troller overheats, the affected power unit is switched off.

Filling with fresh water
Filling fresh water
1. Open the fresh water tank cap.
2. Secure the fresh water hose with the clamp.
3. Fill fresh water (max. 60 °C) to approx. 5 cm below
the filler funnel.
Note
Fill the fresh water tank completely before initial startup
in order to vent the water pipe system.
4. ´Remove the fresh water tank cap.
Filling fresh water with the fresh water tank
automatic filling system (option)
Note
We recommend that you use a hose with an Aquastop
coupling on the device side. This minimises the splash-
ing out of water when disconnecting after the filling pro-
cess.
1. Connect the water hose to the automatic filling sys-
tem.
2. Open the water supply (max. 60 °C, max. 10 bar).
3. Monitor the filling process, the automatic filling sys-
tem interrupts the water supply when the fresh water
tank is full.
4. Close the water inlet.
5. Remove the water hose.
Filling with detergent

Filling the detergent into the fresh water tank
Note
First fill water into the detergent tank, then add the ap-
propriate dosage of detergent to the tank. If the deter-
gent is poured in first, this can lead to strong foaming.
ATTENTION
Danger of clogging
When adding detergent to the fresh water tank, the de-
tergent can dry out and disrupt the function of the dosing
device.
Rinse the device with clear water after adding the deter-
gent to the fresh water tank: Select a cleaning program
with water application, set the water quantity to the high-
est value, set the detergent dosage to "0".
Filling detergent with a dosing device
(option)
Detergent is added to the fresh water on the way to the
cleaning head by a dosing device.
Note
A maximum of 3% detergent can be added with the dos-
ing device. If the dosage is higher, the detergent must
be added to the fresh water tank.
