–Do not wear jewels when working near electrical components.
–Do not operate the machine near toxic, dangerous, inflammable and/or explosive powders, fluids or
vapors.
–When using lead (WET) batteries, battery char ging produces highly explosive hydrogen gas. During
battery charging, remove the recovery water tank and perform this procedure in well-ventilated areas
and away from naked flames.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING!
[RAZOR SV 17 - RAZOR E 17]
–Carefully read all the instructions before carrying out any maintenance/repair procedure.
–To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury, do not leave the machine unattended when it is
plugged in. Unplug the machine from the outlet when not in use and before servicing.
–To avoid electric shock, do not expose to rain. Store the machine indoors.
–Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used near children.
–Use only as described in this Manual. Use only Kent's recommended accesso ries.
–Do not use with damaged powe r su pply cable or plug. If the machine i s not working as it should, has
been damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, return it to the Service Center.
–If the supply cable or the plug is worn or damaged, it needs to be replaced by the Service Center.
–Do not pull or carry the machine by the supply cable; never use the power supply cable as a handle.
Do not close a door on the supply cable, or pull the supply cable around sharp edges or corners. Do
not run the machine on the supply cable. Keep the supply cable away from heated surfaces.
–Take all necessary precautions to prevent hair, jewels and loose clothes from being caught in the
machine moving or vacuuming parts.
–Do not work under the lifted machine without supportin g it with sa fe t y stands.
–Do not leave the machine u nattended without being sure that the machine canno t move independently.
–Do not use the machine on slopes with a gradient exceeding the specifications.
–Do not wash the machine with direct or pressurized water jets, or with corro sive substances.
–Do not use the machine in particularly dusty areas.
–While using this machine, take care not to cause damage to people.
–Do not put any can containing fluids on the machine.
–The storage temperature must be between +32°F and +104°F (0°C and +40°C).
–The machine working temperature must be between +32°F and +104°F (0°C and +40°C).
–The humidity must be between 30% and 95%.
–Always protect the machine against the sun, rain and bad weather, both under operation and inactivity
condition.
–Do not use the machine as a means of transport.
–Do not use the machine on slopes with an inclination higher than 2%.
–Do not allow the brush to operate while the machine is stat io na ry to av o id da ma ging the floor.
–In case of fire, possibly use a powder fire extinguisher, not a water one.
–Do not bump into shelves or scaffoldings, particularly where there is a risk of falling objects.
–Do not remove or modify the plates affixed to the machine.
–If parts must be replaced, require ORIGINAL spare parts from a Dealer or Authorized Retailer.
–The machine must be disposed of properly, because of the presence of toxic-harmful materials (p lastic
materials, batteries, electronic boards, etc.), which are subject to standards that require disposal in
special centers (see the Instructions for Use Manual).
–If the machine is used according to the instructions, the vibrations do not cause dangerous situations.
The machine vibration level is less than 98.42 in/s
–This machine cannot be used on roads or public streets.
–Pay attention during the machine transfers when temperature is below freezing point. The water in the
recovery tank or in the hoses could freeze and seriously damage the machine.
–Use the brushes and the pads supplied with the machine and those specified in the Instructions for
Use Manuals. Using other brushes or pads could reduce safety.
–When lead (WET) batteries are installed on the machine, do not tilt the machine more than 30° from the
horizontal plane to prevent the highly corrosive ac id from leaking out of the batteries. If the machine
must be tilted to perform any maintenance procedure, re move the batteries.

TROUBLESHOOTING [RAZOR SV 17]
OPEN CIRCUIT
The brush motor fuse F1 determines the open circuit. This system allows to prevent the brush motor and circuits from being
damaged under overload conditions.
If there is an open in the circuit, the possible causes are:
1.Bulky debris or cords around the brush or between the brush and its flange (remove the brush and the debris or cords).
2.The brush motor electrical input is too high (check the electrical input).
THE BRUSH DOES NOT ROTATE
Possible causes:
1.The battery voltage is too low (charge the battery).
2.The motor carbon brushes are worn (replace).
3.The motor is faulty (repair or replace).
4.The brush motor fuse is burned (solve the problem and replace the fuse).
5.The brush ON/OFF switch (5) is broken (replace ).
6.The reduction unit is faulty (repair or replace).
7.The wiring harness is damaged (repair).
8.The brush electromagnetic switch is damaged (replace).

BATTERY CHARGING [RAZOR SV 17]
NOTE
Charge the batteries when the warning light (3) or (4) turns on, or when finishing cleaning.
Keeping the batteries charged makes them last longer.
CAUTION!
When the batteries are discharged, charge them as soon as possible, as that con ditio n makes them last
shorter.
Check for battery charge at least once a week.
WARNING!
When using lead (WET) batteries, battery charging produces highly explosive hydrogen gas. Charge the
batteries in well-ventilated areas and away from naked flames.
Do not smoke while charging this type of batteries.
During the charging of this type of batteries, the recovery water tank (A) must be removed.
WARNING!
When using lead (WET) batteries, be extremely careful while charging the batteries as there may be battery
fluid leakages. The battery fluid is corrosive. If it comes in contact with the skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly
with water and consult a physician.
CAUTION!
Batteries must be charged indoors, in a dry environment (damp free).
Preliminary procedures
1.Drive the machine on a level ground.
2.Check that the switches (5 and 6) are turned to “0”.
3.If there is recovery water in the tank (43), drain it through the hose (22).

–Open the cover (12).
–Grasp the recovery water tank (A) in the area (B) and lift it, as shown in the figure, then disconnect the vacuum hose
(C) from the tank and remove the tank (A) together with the hoses (D) and (E).
–Check for the correct level of electrolyte inside the batteries (50). If necessary, add distilled water through the caps.
–Leave all the battery caps open for next charging.
–If necessary, clean the upper surface of the batteries.
5.Charge the batteries according to one of the following procedures, depending on the presence of the battery charger (33).
Charging the batteries with an external battery charger
6.Refer to the battery charger Manual to check that it is suitable for the purpose. Battery charger rated voltage must be 24 V.
7.Disconnect the battery connector (36) and connect it to the external battery charger.
8.Connect the external battery charger to the electrical mains.
9.When the recharging is complete, disconnect the external battery charger from the electrical mains and from the battery
