General description

This machine is a scrubber drier for sweeping, washing and drying at, horizontal, smooth or mod­erately rough, even and obstacle free oors in civil and industrial premises.
The scrubber drier spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration on the
oor and then scrubs it to remove the dirt. By carefully choosing the detergent and brushes (or abrasive disks) from the wide range of accessories available, the machine can be adapted to a wide range of combinations of types of oor and dirt. A suction system incorporated in the machine dries the oor after washing by means of the low
pressure generated in the dirty water tank by the suction motor. The squeegee connected to the tank collects the dirty water.

Parts of the machine

The machine comprises the main parts described below (g. 1).
► The water/detergent tank (g. 1, ref. 1) contains and carries the mixture of clean water and
cleaning product.
► The dirty water tank (g. 1, ref. 2) collects the dirty water picked up from the oor after
washing; ► Control panel (g. 1, ref. 3). ► Head assembly (g. 1, ref. 4), the main element comprises the brushes/rollers which dis-
tribute the detergent solution onto the oor and remove the dirt.
► Squeegee assembly (g. 1, ref. 5): wipes and dries the oor by collecting the water.

The machine is packaged on a wooden pallet by the Manufacturer. It must be loaded on to the trans­porting vehicle using suitable equipment (see EC Directive 89/392 and subsequent amendments
and/or additions). At destination, it must be unloaded using similar means.
A fork lift truck must always be used to lift the packaged body of the machine. Handle with care to avoid knocking or overturning the machine.

Delivery checks

When the carrier delivers the machine, make sure the packaging and machine are both whole and undamaged. If the machine is damaged, make sure the carrier is aware of the damage and before accepting the goods, reserve the right (in writing) to request compensation for the damage.

Unpacking

When unpacking the machine, the operator must be provided with the necessary personal
protection devices (gloves, goggles, etc.) to limit the risk of injury.
Proceed as follows to unpack the machine.
► Cut and remove the plastic straps using scissors or nippers. ► Remove the cardboard packaging. ► Remove the bags from the battery compartment and check their contents:
this Operator’s Manual, the maintenance manual, declaration of conformity, certicate of
warranty;
battery bridges with terminals;
connector for battery charger.
Depending on the model, remove the metal brackets or cut the plastic straps xing the machine
chassis to the pallet.
Using a sloping ramp, push the machine backwards off the pallet; see the paragraph “Pushing and
pulling the machine” for details on engaging/disengaging the electric brake on the drive wheel.

Switch the machine on, lower the squeegee by pressing the suction motor button. Place the squeegee in the slots provided on the support (g. 4), then tighten the fastening knobs
and insert the suction hose.
4

Squeegee adjustment

The squeegee blades scrape the lm of water and detergent from the oor and prepare the way for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the oor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efciency 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 oor at every point. The angle of the blades can be adjusted using the screw (g. 5, ref. 1), while the height of the squeegee from the oor can be adjusted by changing the height of the two wheels (g. 6).

Some useful tips to get the most from your scrubber drier

In the event of particularly stubborn dirt on the oor, washing and drying can be performed in two
separate operations. Prewashing with brushes or pads:
► Turn the main switch to position “1”.
► Select the AUTO or ECO program.
► Press the suction motor button to stop suction.
► Press the accelerator pedal to move off and start work.
► If necessary, adjust the ow of detergent delivered to the brush, using the water/detergent
button; the outlet ow must be metered in relation to the required travel speed; the slower the machine travels, the less detergent must be delivered.
► Persist when washing particularly dirty points to give the detergent time to perform its
chemical action detaching and suspending the dirt and the brushes time to exert an effec-
Drying:
tive mechanical action.
► Lower the squeegee and with the suction motor on, pass over the same area washed pre-
viously. The result is equivalent to in-depth washing and subsequent ordinary maintenance will take less time.

Emptying the collection tank:

If the tank is full, the display shows the corresponding alarm, see “Display alarms”; after a few seconds, the suction motor shuts down, then stop the machine and empty the tank following the
instructions shown below:
► Switch off all the machine’s functions.
► Take the machine to the disposal area.
► Unhook the hose from the clip.
► Empty the tank using the hose (g. 13, ref. 1), at the end rinse the tank with clean water.

Proceed as follows to prepare the machine for extended periods of inactivity.

PERIODS OF INACTIVITY

► Remove the squeegee and brushes (or abrasive disks), wash them and put them away in
a dry place (preferably in a bag or wrapped in plastic lm) away from dust.
► Make sure the tanks are completely empty and perfectly clean.
► Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
► Completely recharge the batteries and deposit them in the battery store. During long peri-
ods of inactivity, you should charge the batteries regularly (at least once every two months)
to keep them constantly at maximum charge.
If you do not charge the batteries regularly, they may be irreparably damaged.
