4.1. IDENTIFYING THE MACHINE

A silver label is sticked on the protection case of the steering column and clearly shows the data referring to
the “CE” marking.

Inserire
targhetta
marcatura

The label has never to be removed and should always be kept readable. In case of
damage t is necessary to ask for a duplicate. The autoscrubber machine cannot be sold
without the label.

4.2. DESCRIPTION AND COMPONENTS

The scrubbing machine – Mod. I42TD - has been designed to clean all flat surfaces by means of washing
and suction of the washing water.
The electric traction system is supplied by a series of batteries which supply energy to the brushes motors, to
the squeegee motor and to the suction motor.
The machine is equipped with two rotating brushes which wash the surface by means of water and
detergent. Whilst the machine is running forward, the back brush (squeegee) picks the water up that is
directly sucked into the recovery tank.
The accelerator pedal starts both the washing brushes and the suction motor which stop automatically after a
few seconds when you leave the pedal. When the washing brushes standstill, they are non more in contact
with the ground. In this way the bristles will not be damaged while the brushes are not working.
Thanks to the dashboard the operator can control all the machine functions and a series of LEDs shows to
the operator the battery status or the errors detected by the electronic card.
The operator can control all the main machine functions and in particular:

 Start the washing brushes;
 Regulate the quantity of water;
 Start the suction motor;
 Start the lift or the sink of the squeegee;
 Choose the forward or back gear;
 Start or stop the machine.

The operator, thanks to his/her experience, has to choose the right kind of brush and detergent for the
surfaces that has to be washed and to decide if the floor needs a second washing.
Follow these instructions for a correct washing:

1. press the brushes motor switch;

2. press the solution solenoid valve switch;

3. press the suction switch.

By means of the accelerator pedal the washing brushes and the suction motor are activated. On the
contrary, both the washing brushes and the suction motor are disactivated after a few seconds if the operator
leaves this pedal. Before the surface is completely dry, the operator must switch the solution solenoid valve
off because this is not activated/disactivated by the accelerator pedal.
The operator has to do a second washing if the surface is particularly dirty:

1. wash the surface with the squeegee up and the brushes down;

2. activate the brushes;

3. press the solution solenoid valve switch;

4. leave the solution on the surface to dissolve the dirt;

5. do a second washing with brushes and squeegee down, the suction activated and the solution solenoid
valve open.

Important: swicth on the flashing light before starting the machine.

to avoid that foreign matters can damage the machine functioning.

Choosing the right detergent.

Choosing the right detergent is very important for a perfect cleaning. A too strong detergent could damage
the surface. A good quality detrgent has to produce little foam. Alternatevely, the operator can add an
antifoaming additive or 50 cc of wine vinaigre in the recovery tank in order to avoid the suction motor
damage.

Make sure that the detergent is suitable for the dirty surface. FIORENTINI S.r.l. is not
responsible for damages provoked by too aggressive detergents.

The squeegee has to be well regulated in order to have a perfect dry system. This kind of squeegee can
perfectly suck water, which flows into the suction pipe, but it must be parallel to the surface.

The operator has to follow the instructions below for the squeegee adjustment:

 Remove the ignition key from the dashboard in order to avoid the casual starting of the machine;
 unscrew the upper screws and tighten the lower ones if the blades are more pressed at the ends. Do

the opposite if the blades are more pressed in the middle;

 For the pressure regulation the operator has to tighten or to widen the ring nut;
 By means of the knob (see detail nr. 2 in picture nr. 4.11.) regulate the squeegee. The best squeegee

pressure is reached when the corner of its blade is in contact with the floor and their inclination is

5.6. OTHER DANGERS

FIORENTINI S.r.l. analyzes – starting from the design of the machine - all the dangers that can occur while
the machine is operating in order to prevent or at least low the operator’s accidents. Thanks to a series of
signals on the machine the operator can avoid many risks that can occur.

SQUASHING

This kind of danger can occur:

• During the side brushes regulation;

Whilst regulating the side brushes, the ignition key must be kept away from the dashboard in order
to avoid the casual starting of the machine.

TURNOVER

This kind of ranger can occur:

• during the normal operating of the machine when the operator exceeds sloping limits as
specified in the manual and the operator uses the machine to clean disconnected surfaces
or with holes and high depressions (see 3.2)

• Do not use the machine to wash sloping surfaces higher than 12% or surfaces
with holes or depressions which might compromise the stability of the machine.

FIORENTINI is not responsible for accidents occurred to people or things provoked by a
wrong use of the machine, i.e. using the machine on surfaces which can compromise its
stability.
The purchaser must stick proper labels on the machine to show the operator the right use of
the scrubber.
