BATTERIES CHARGE LEVEL INDICA­TOR

WHEN THE MACHINE IS SWITCHED
ON, ON THE DISPLAY (1) APPEAR
IN ORDER THE FOLLOWING INFOR­MATION:

1. the version (for example A003) of soft­ware installed on the machine.

2. the setting of the battery check card
which can be:
GE 36: check card set for GEL batteries.
or
Pb 36: check card set for lead batteries.

3. The batteries charge level indicator is

digital and remains xed on the display.

The battery charge level starts from 100,
which indicates the 100% of the total
charge and decreases by 10 to 10. When
the charge level reaches 20%, the display
starts blinking, so you are about the end of
working.

ATTENTION:

After a few seconds of the indication 10%
and after this, the blinking of the four lines,
all the functions stop automatically. With
the remaining charge it is anyhow pos-

sible to nish the drying operation before

proceeding to the charge station.

HOUR METER

The machine is equipped with an hour
meter located on the same display (1) of
the battery charge level indicator. Pressing

the button (2), the rst data indicates the

working hours and after a few seconds the
working minutes are shown.

SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY

1. Insert the two screws (3) situated on the
upper part of the squeegee (2) inside the
slots present on the support.

2. To block the squeegee tighten the stud
bolts (3).

3. Insert the squeegee hose (4) into its
coupling, respecting its position as indi-

cated in the gure.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE SQUEEGEE

In order to have a perfect drying result
through the squeegee, the rear rubber
must have the lower bending uniformly ad­justed in all its length. For the adjustment,
the suction motor has to be switched on
and the brushes have to function together
with the detergent solution.
If the lower part of the rubber is bent too
much
Take off the pressure rotating the wing nut
(5) counterclockwise.
If the lower part of the rubber is not bent
enough
Increase the pressure rotating the wing nut
(5) 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".
If the bending is not uniform
Adjust the squeegee inclination rotat­ing counter-clockwise the wing nut (6) to
increase the bending in the central part, or
clockwise to increase the bending on the
ends.
Height adjustment
Once the pressure and inclination of the
squeegee have been adjusted, it is neces-

sary to x this optimum condition and
make the wheels slightly touch the oor.

Rotate clockwise the registers (7) to lower
the wheels or counterclockwise to raise
them. Both wheels must be adjusted the
same. To act upon the register (7) loosen
at the same time the two milled ring nuts,
adjust the height acting on the upper one

and then x the adjustment screwing and

blocking the lower one.

11

ATTENTION:

https://harrissupplyind.com - To Order Parts Call 608-268-8080

Every type of oor requires a specic
adjustment. For example, concrete oors

(where the friction tends 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, the adjustment

only needs to be made as a result of the
rubber wear.

ADJUSTMENT SIDE RUBBERS

To adjust the side rubbers, it is necessary
to act upon the knob (1). Screwing down,
more pressure is given and unscrewing,
pressure is being taken off. The reason
for the adjustment is to obtain an uniform
rubber bending.
NOTE: If the rubber should lower in the
rear part, it is necessary to restore the cor­rect bending by acting upon the screw (2).

3. Activate the selector (14) of up/down
of the brushes base to lower the brushes.
Once that it is lowered, the brushes begin
to turn.

4. Turn the key counterclockwise to turn off
the machine.

ATTENTION:

To carry out brushes assembly operations
with the electric supply on, may cause
damages to hands.

7. Extract the support plates (3) and (4)
of the brushes pulling them outwards by
holding their handles.

8. Extract the rear brush (5) and the front
brush (6).

BRUSHES ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEM­BLY

Normally, the machine is delivered with the
brushes assembled.
To assemble and disassemble the brush­es:

1. Position the selector (4) for the adjust­ment of the brushes pressure on position
P1.

2. Activate the machine (see under para­graph “STARTING OF THE MACHINE”)
positioning the selector (12) to the right to
choose the manual mode (MAN).

ATTENTION:

This operation must be carried out using
gloves to protect from contact with danger­ous solutions.

5. Open the bar of the right side rubber
after having released it pulling the stop (1)
upwards.

6. Take off the stop (2) then unscrew and
take off the knob so to open the blocking

support as shown in the gure.

9. When reassembling the rear brush (5)
pay attention to the bristles design, so that
it will be assembled always in the same

direction as shown in the gure.

12

10. During the reassembly of the brush

https://harrissupplyind.com - To Order Parts Call 608-268-8080

(6), insert it into the brush base from the
part where the seat is deeper (about 1.5”
40mm). The opposite part with a depth of
about .5” 13,5mm has to be towards the
support plate.

11. Place the support plates (3) and
(4) into their position, then the blocking
support, screw down the knob and insert
once more the stop (2) and nally reposi­tion and block the bar of the side rubber

ATTENTION:

The brushes must be inserted easily with­out using tools in order not to damage or
force them.
Use only brushes supplied with the ma­chine or the ones indicated in the para­graph “RECOMMENDED BRUSHES”. The
use of other brushes can compromise the
washing result.

SIDE BRUSH ASSEMBLY AND DISAS­SEMBLY

The machine is equipped with a side brush
that permits the unit to clean near the right
side borders.
To assemble the brush, the device has to
be in rest position at machine stop.

ATTENTION:

To carry out brushes assembly operations
with the electric supply on, may cause
damages to hands.

ATTENTION:

3.Selecting the forward with the selector
(8), pressing the accelerator pedal and
adjusting the speed of the forward move­ment with the selector (9), the machine
starts to move and in automatic mode all
the working functions are activated. In
fact, automatically both the brushes base
as the squeegee go down, the brushes
begin to turn, the solenoid valve opens to

permit the detergent solution to ow down

onto the brushes and the suction system
is activated to recover the dirty water from

the oor.

Selecting the backward movement with the
selector (8) the squeegee lifts automatical­ly and will then return to lower itself during
the next forward movement.
If the accelerator pedal is released for
more than 3seconds, automatically all the
functions are switched off and both the
brushes base as the squeegee are lifted.
Pressing the pedal again, the machine
starts to move again and in automatic
mode all the working functions are reacti­vated.

WORKING IN MANUAL MODE

The manual model is useful when, in
special cases, it is necessary to carry
out separately only the washing with the

brushes or only the drying of the oor.

ATTENTION:

The washing and drying functions, when
they are not carried out simultaneously,
represent an improper use of the machine
(see under paragraph “GENERAL RULES
OF SECURITY”). If they are carried out
separately, it is necessary to forbid the
working areas to the passage of non-au­thorized personnel and to signal the areas

of moist oors with suitable signs.

Activate the machine (see under para­graph “STARTING OF THE MACHINE”)
positioning the selector (12) to the right to
choose the manual mode (MAN).

TO CARRY OUT THE WASHING WITH
ONLY THE BRUSHES:

1.Activate the selector (14) of up/down of
the brushes base to lower the brushes.
Once that it is lowered, the brushes begin
to turn. The signal lamp (22) indicates that
the brushes base is in the working position,
while the signal lamp (23) signals that the
brushes are turning.

2.Press the switch (11) to open the sole­noid valve and permit the detergent solu­tion to lower onto the brushes. The signal
lamp (24) will come on to indicate that the
solenoid valve is open.

3.Check that the lever (10) is in the posi-

tion of optimum ow, depending on the
type of oor and the type of dirt (see under

the paragraph “FLOW ADJUSTMENT OF
THE DETERGENT SOLUTION”).

TO CARRY OUT THE FUNCTION OF
ONLY DRYING:

1.Activate the selector (15) of up/down
squeegee to lower the squeegee. The sig­nal lamp (21) indicates that the squeegee
is in the working position.

2.Press the switch (16) of the suction mo­tors to start the suction system. The signal
lamp (18) indicates that the machine is
drying.

Selecting the sense of drive in forward with
the selector (8), pressing the accelerator
pedal and adjusting the speed of the for­ward movement with the selector (9), the
machine starts to proceed and in automatic
mode all the working functions previously
set are activated.

ATTENTION:

In manual mode every function of the
machine has to be activated or deactivated
manually.

15

SIDE BRUSH

https://harrissupplyind.com - To Order Parts Call 608-268-8080

The machine is equipped with a side brush
that permits it to clean near the right side
borders.

The function is activated by acting upon
the switch (13) both in manual and in auto­matic mode. The signal lamp (25) indicates
that the side brush is active and in the
working position.

WORKING ADJUSTMENTS

In both automatic and manual mode, dur-

ing the rst feet/metres check:

1. that the adjustment of the detergent

solution ow is sufcient to wet the oor

uniformly avoiding leakage of detergent
from the splash guards (see
under paragraph “FLOW ADJUSTMENT
OF THE DETERGENT SOLUTION”).

2. that the squeegee adjustment guar­antees a perfect drying result (see under
paragraph “ADJUSTMENT OF THE
SQUEEGEE”).

3. that the brushes pressure permits an

efcient washing action as it relates to the

dirt and the speed (see under paragraph
“ADJUSTMENT OF THE BRUSHES
PRESSURE”).

FLOW ADJUSTMENT OF THE DETER­GENT SOLUTION

To adjust the detergent solution quantity
that ows down onto the brushes it is nec­essary to act upon the solution valve knob
(10) placed on the upper part of the side
instrument board, rotating counterclock­wise to increase it and clockwise to reduce

it up to closure of the ow.

The side brush has an independent water

ow adjustment, with a solution valve (11)

placed under the frame near the brush
itself.
Please remember that the side brush does
not have a scrubbing function but simply
moves the dirt towards the center of the
machine.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE BRUSHES
PRESSURE

Both in automatic and in manual mode it is
possible through the selector (4) to adjust

the brushes pressure on the oor in eight

established levels. During the operation,
youcan visualize on the display (1) the
value of the brushes motor by pressing the
button (3).

ATTENTION:

In order not to overload the brushes motor,
it is convenient to reduce the brushes pres-

sure going from smooth oors to rough

ones (ex. concrete).
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
to the level where the blinking warning
stops

ELECTRIC PROTECTION

The machine is equipped with an electron­ic system of protection for all components
that carry out functions of power or control.
This device blocks the defective compo­nent and indicates on the display (1)
the corresponding alarm from ”AL01” to

“AL20”. The last two gures indicate the

number of the alarm code.

ATTENTION:

To restore the functioning of the compo­nent, turn the machine off and on again us­ing the key switch. If the problem persists,
please contact the authorized technical
assistance

ATTENTION:

OVERFLOW DEVICE

In order to avoid serious damage to the
suction motors, the machine is equipped
with a oat that intervenes when the re­covery tank is full, closing the suction, the
switching on of the signal lamp (20) for the
signalling of the full recovery tank and
consequently the drying to stop.
When this happens, it is necessary to emp­ty the recovery tank (see under paragraph
“RECOVERY TANK EMPTYING AND
CLEANING”).

STOP OF THE MACHINE AFTER
CLEANING OPERATION
IN AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL WORKING
MODE:

1. A the end of the washing cycle put
the selector (12) into the central position
(BREAK WASHING). In this way automati­cally the brushes lift, the solenoid valve

shuts down and it is possible to nish the

drying operation.

2. When the accelerator pedal is released
for more than 3 seconds, the squeegee
raises itself and the suction switches off
automatically.

3. After three seconds, the accelerator can
be pressed again, if a machine's transfer
has to be made (the transfer can be car­ried out also if the pedal is never lifted, in
this case the squeegee gets lifted and
the suction stop automatically after 15
seconds).

4. Turn the switch key counterclockwise to
switch off the machine.

5. Apply the parking brake (see under
paragraph “EMERGENCY-PARKING
BRAKE”).

The mode (BREAK WASHING) is specic

RECOMMENDED BRUSHES

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.
