with the machine. An unskilled or uninstructed operator may cause
correlated residual risks. Such risks are:
• Position Risks: due to operator’s incorrect working position
• Entanglement Risks: due to wearing inappropriate
working clothes
• Training Risks: due to lack of operational training.
• NOTE: In order to reduce any consequences of the
above‐ mentioned risks, we advise that machine operators
follow the instructions in the manual at all times.
Residual Risks
During the normal operating and maintenance cycles, the operator
is exposed to some residual risks, which cannot be eliminated due
to the nature of the operations.

4.2 WATER FLOW CONTROL SYSTEM
The operator can direct water to be sprayed in front of the machine (Fig.4.1) by positioning the lever in the horizontal
position (Fig.4.2). Water will spray under the cover of the machine when the lever is in the vertical position (Fig.4.2). The
pressure regulator is located above the lever (Fig.4.3) and controls the water pressure in the system. You can see the
whole water flow control system - main and filtering parts in fig4.4. Fig. 4.5 and fig. 4.6 shows how to remove and clean
the filter mesh. In the instances where more water is required to spray under the cover of the machine, the orifice plate
(shown on pos.8 of table 14 in „spare pats“ ) can be removed.
ALWAYS USE CLEAN WATER TO PROTECT THE SYSTEM FROM DIRT

4.3 ADJUSTING AND MOUNTING TOOLS
Lavina® 25LEU uses tool holder A63. With this new holder every one of our tools uses the “Quickchange” connection. To change the
tools you need first to unlock the butterfly (fig 4.6 in blue) by using the key we provide you (you can see it in the pictures fig. 4.7)
remove the security plate (fig 4.6 in red) then load the tools you want and insert the security plate again so the tools cannot go
backwards, rotate and lock the butterfly (as shown in fig.4.7). As you can see in fig. 4.6, for some of the new tools you need to
remove the security plate as they don’t need locking system at all but for the others always make sure that the tools are securely
locked.
1
In Lavina 25LEU the holder is initially mounted with 3 buffers.
Mount the tools only after ensuring that there is
before mounting.
WARNING: Always secure the Quick Change tools with the butterfly (Fig.4.6 in blue), lock with the tool holder key
(Fig.4.7) and make sure that the butterfly is securely locked and it holds the security plate not to fall off.

4.6 STARTING THE MACHINE
First, follow the directions in the chapter on Safety Devices and Safety Instructions. Next, release the emergency stop (4), turn the
Ready switch (10) to the ON position to put the machine in standby mode. Check the potentiometer (12), and ensure that it is set to
the working speed. If you are working wet, add water to the floor surface by starting the pump (7). If you are working dry make sure
your machine is connected to the vacuum unit. Finally, hold the machine firmly and push the RUN button (13).
4.7 OPERATING THE MACHINE
Guide the machine in straight lines across the floor, slightly overlapping the previously completed surface with each new
line. Work at a constant speed, allowing the tools time to work at a speed appropriate for the tools’ grit size. Avoid
vibrations. Do not stop the machine while tools are still running as they will mark the surface of the floor. When working
wet, select the destination of the water feed with the water tap (fig. 4.2) and periodically run the pump to release water
onto the floor surface. Starting the pump is possible only if the machine motor is on. When working dry, check the floor
surface periodically for dust accumulation. Check regularly to see if you’re vacuum works properly.
