INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
This oor cleaning machine is used for the industrial and civil cleaning and is able to clean any type
of oor. During its forward movement, the combined action of the brushes and the detergent solution
removes the dirt which is aspirated through the rear suction assembly, giving a perfectly dry surface.
The machine must be used only for such purpose. It gives the best performance if it is used correctly
and maintained in perfect efciency. We therefore ask you to read this instruction booklet carefully
whenever difculties arise in the course of the machine’s use. In case of need, we ask you to contact
our service department for all advice and servicing as may prove necessary.

SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT
https://harrissupplyind.com - To Order Parts Call 608-268-8080
In order to have better drying
result with the squeegee, the
rear rubber must have its lower
bending uniformly adjusted in all
its length. For the adjustment,
the vacuum motor has to be
switched on and the brushes
have to function together with
the detergent solution.
Rotate counterclockwise the
registers (8) to lower the wheels
or clockwise to raise them. Both
wheels must be adjusted in the
same measure.
ATTENTION:
1. Position the selector (8) for
the adjustment of the brush
pressure on position P1.
2. Activate the machine (see
“STARTING OF THE
MACHINE”) positioning the selector (3) to the right to choose
the manual mode (MAN).
3. Activate the selector (13) of
up/down of the brush base to
lower the brushes. Once it is
lowered, the brushes begin to
turn.
4. Turn the key counter clockwise to turn off the machine
The lower part of the rubber is
too much bent
Take off the pressure rotating
the wing nut (6) counterclockwise.
The lower part of the rubber is
not much bent
Increase the pressure rotating the wing nut (6) clockwise.
Check that the wheels which
adjust the height do not rest
on the oor, in this case adjust
them as indicated in paragraph
“Height adjustment”.
The bending is not uniform
Adjust the squeegee inclination rotating counterclockwise
the wing nut (7) to increase the
bending in the central part, or
clockwise to increase the bending on the extremities.
Height adjustment
Once that the pressure and
inclination of the squeegee
have been adjusted, it is necessary to x this optimum condition making touch slightly the
wheels onto the oor.
Every type of oor requires
a specic adjustment. For
example, concrete oors (where
friction results to be high) need
little pressure, while smooth
oors (ceramics) need higher
pressure. If the cleaning operations are always made on the
same type of oor, adjust according to rubber wear.
ADJUSTMENT HEIGHT SIDE
RUBBERS
Loosen the upper blocking nuts.
Use the adjusting screws (1)
and (2) to adjust the height of

MOVEMENT”).
Pressing the accelerator pedal,
the machine begins to proceed
forward and to work according
to the set functions.
ATTENTION:
In manual mode every function
of the machine has to be activated or deactivated manually.
FLOW ADJUSTMENT OF THE
DETERGENT SOLUTION
To adjust the detergent solu-
tion quantity that ows down
onto the brushes it is necessary
to act upon the solution valve
knob (27) placed on the right
of the steering column, rotating
counterclockwise to increase it
and clockwise to reduce it up to
close the ow.
It is convenient to adjust the
ow during working operation
and at each adjustment of the
brushes pressure.
TO CARRY OUT THE FUNCTION OF ONLY DRYING:
1.Press the push button (11)
of up/down squeegee to lower
the squeegee. The signal lamp
(12) indicates that the squeegee
is lowering or lifting (the signal
remains on when the squeegee
is in working position).
2.Press the switch (9) of the
suction motor to start the suction system. The signal lamp
(8) indicates that the machine is
drying.
WORKING ADJUSTMENTS
Both in automatic as in manual
mode, during the rst metres
check:
1.that the squeegee adjustment guarantees a perfect
drying result (see under paragraph “ADJUSTMENT OF THE
SQUEEGEE”).
2.that the adjustment of the de-
tergent solution ow is sufcient
to wet the oor uniformly avoid-
ing the leakage of detergent
from the splash guards (see under paragraph “FLOW ADJUSTMENT OF THE DETERGENT
SOLUTION”).
3.that the brushes pressure
permits an efcient washing
action in function of the dirt and
the speed (see under paragraph “ADJUSTMENT OF THE
BRUSHES PRES-SURE”).
ADJUSTMENT OF THE
BRUSHES PRESSURE
Both in automatic and in manual mode it is possible through
the selector (10) to adjust the
brushes pressure on the oor in
eight established levels. During
the operation, we can visualize on the display (1) the value
in percentage of the electric
absorption of the brushes motor
by pressing the button (14).
The adjustment occurs in this
way both in automatic and in
manual mode.
ATTENTION:
The presence on the display (1)
of a blinking warning from P2
to P8 indicates that the pressure level set determines an
overload of the brushes motor. It is therefore necessary to
reduce the pressure up to the
level where the blinking warning
stops.

IN AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL
WORKING MODE:
1.A the end of the washing
cycle, pressing the push button
(5), the functioning of BREAK
WASHING is chosen. When
the signal lamp (4) is on, then
the machine is in the functioning mode BREAK WASHING.
In this way automatically the
solenoid valve shuts down, the
brushes are lifted of a few millimeters continuing to turn for
about 10 seconds (drying phase
of the brushes) and the collection box drains the excess water
to the oor; then, the washing
group lifts completely while the
squeegee continues to remain
in working position with the suction motor on, after 5 seconds
the squeegee lifts and when it
reaches the highest position,
the suction motor stops, with a
delay of another 5 seconds.
NOTE: all these phases are
carried out with the machine
operating, so that the squeegee
can dry the interested cleaning
area from the “drying phase of
the brushes” and furthermore
can dry the suction hose of its
dirty water.
At any time it is possible to
interrupt the procedure BREAK
WASHING by stopping the
drive.
2.During the phase of BREAK
WASHING, when the accelerator pedal is released for more
than 3 seconds, the squeegee
raises itself and the suction
switches off automatically.

RECOMMENDED BRUSHES
https://harrissupplyind.com - To Order Parts Call 608-268-8080
Brushes must be chosen depending on type of oor and dirt to be removed. The employed material
and the bristles diameter are the elements that distinguish different types of brushes.
MATERIAL CHARACTERISTICS
PPL (Polypropylene) Good wear resistance. Maintains characteristics with hot water up to 140°F
(60°C). It is not hygroscopic.
NYLON Excellent wear resistance, even with hot water over 140°F (60°C). It is hygroscopic. It
looses its physical characteristics over the time.
TYNEX Nylon bristles with grains of abrasive material. Use with caution in order not to mark the
oor or ruin the polishing.
BRISTLES THICKNESS Thicker bristles are more rigid and must be used on smooth oor or oor
with small joints. On irregular oors with deep joints or relieves, it is recommended to use softer
bristles which penetrate more easily and deeper. Please be aware that when brush bristles are worn
out and therefore too small, they become rigid and unable to penetrate and clean deeper. This may
also happen with thicker bristles creating brush vibration.
