SIMBOLOGY USED IN THE USER MANUAL Denotes the waste disposal Follow the regulations Denotes the risk of gas exhalation and the corrosive liquid leakage Denotes the fire hazard Do not approach with flames...
Signal the areas of moist floors with suitable signs If the machine does not work properly, check by conducting simple maintenance procedures. Otherwise, it is better to ask for COMAC technical service.
The machine is packed in a specific package provided on a pallet for the handling with fork trucks. The packages cannot be placed on top of each other. The total weight is 535 kg for ULTRA 85B and 556 kg for ULTRA 100B The overall dimensions are:...
MACHINE PREPARATION INSTALLATION OF THE BATTERIES INTO THE MACHINE The batteries are fitted in the appropriate compartment under the seat and must be handled by using appropriate lifting equipment suitable both for the weight and for the coupler system. They must moreover satisfy the requirements quoted in the Specification CEI 21-5. For maintenance and daily recharge of the batteries, it is necessary to follow strictly all the indications given from the constructor or from his dealer .
MACHINE PREPARATION 5. CONNECTION OF THE BATTERY CHARGER The connector is placed in the left lower part of the operator seat. The upper part (1), which is connected to the batteries, is the one which has to be inserted to the connector (2) fixed to the cables of the battery charger.
MACHINE PREPARATION SQUEEGEE The squeegee, which is packed separately from the machine, should be assembled as shown in the figure, couple the stud bolts (1 - C85B) or the nuts (C100B) of the squeegee into their seats on the squeegee support and fix them with a key CH17. Fit the suction hose (2) into its coupling and fix it with the appropriate clamp Fit the suction hose (2) into its coupling and fix it with the appropriate clamp During working operation, the rear rubber has to work slightly tilted backwards and this equally in its...
MACHINE PREPARATION 10. BRUSHES ASSEMBLY 1. Connect the battery connector 2. Turn the key into position ON 3. With the manipulator lift the brushes base 4. Turn the key into position OFF and take it off from the instrument board (to carry out the operations of brushes assembly with connected current can cause damage to the hands).
MACHINE PREPARATION 11. SOLUTION WATER Fill the solution tank with clean water at a temperature not more than 50° C and add liquid detergent in the proper concentration following the instructions of the manufacturer. Excess foam in the recovery tank could damage the suction motor, so use only the minimum amount of detergent necessary.
DURING WORK 1. Carry out the operations for the preparation of the machine 2. Take place on the driver seat. 3. Check that the parking brake is released (1) 4. Connect the connector to the batteries (2) 5. Turn the key of the general switch (3) clockwise of a quarter turn. Immediately, the red signal lamp (4) on the instrument board begins to blink and the batteries’...

DURING WORK SQUEEGEE AUTOMATIC - MANUAL Automatic : If the switch is placed on automatic, lowering of the squeegee and starting of the suction motor are obtained with the machine advancement. Also, lifting of the squeegee and stopping of the suction motor are achieved with the reverse motion of the machine.
ON COMPLETION OF THE WORK Having finished the job and before any type of maintenance is done: 1. Close the tap 2. Raise the brush base 3. Switch off the brushes motor switch 4. Switch off the solenoid valve switch 5.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CLEANING OF THE RECOVERY TANK 1. Empty the tank through the flexible hose, unscrewing of some turns the knob and then taking off the plug 2. Open the side plug by unscrewing the knob and rotating the closing blade To perform this operation wear the protection gloves to prefent contacts with dangerous liquid 3.
Page 23
DAILY MAINTENANCE CLEANING OF THE SQUEEGEE 1. Lift up the squeegee assembly moving forward the manipulator (1) 2. Remove the suction hose from the squeegee connection (2) 3. Push the unhooking lever (3) and lift up the squeegee. 4. Push the squeegee letting the support arm slide forward (4). 5.

DAILY MAINTENANCE SOLUTION TANK AND FILTER CLEANING When the solution tank is empty: 1. Unscrew the filter and rinse the inside thoroughly 2. Take off the cartridge and clean it 3. Open the cock 4. Rinse the tank with a water jet 5.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE ADJUSTMENT SPLASH GUARD BRUSHES BASE Periodically proceed with the height adjustment of the side covers of the brushes base. This operation has to be carried out with the brushes base down. 1. Loosen the fixing knobs of the covers 2.
FUNCTIONING CONTROL INSUFFICIENT WATER ONTO THE BRUSHES 1. Make sure that the cock is open 2. Make sure that the solenoid valve switch is on 3. Make sure that there is water in the solution tank (signal lamp “RESERVE” off) 4.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE THE SUCTION MOTOR DOES NOT FUNCTION 1. Check that the suction motor switch is on 2. Check whether the recovery tank is full and eventually empty it 3. Check the perfect condition of the float switch (see also “CLEANING OF THE RECOVERY TANK FILTER”...
CHOICE AND USE OF BRUSHES POLYPROPYLENE BRUSH (PPL) It is used on all types of floors which are hot water resistant (not more than 60°C). The Polypropylene brush is nonhygroscopic and therefore conserves its characteristics even if working in the wet conditions. NYLON BRUSH It is used on all types of floors with excellent wear and hot water resistance (more than 60°C).
