2. General Information Read this manual carefully before carrying out any work on the machine. 2.1. Scope of the manual This manual has been written by the Manufacturer and is an integral part of the machine. It defines the purpose for which the machine has been designed and constructed and contains all the information required by operators.
3. Technical Information 3.1. General description This machine is an automatic scrubber for sweeping, washing and drying flat, horizontal, smooth or moderately rough, even and obstacle free floors in civil and industrial premises. The automatic scrubber spreads a solution of water and detergent in the correct concentration on the floor and then scrubs it to remove the dirt.
3.3. Danger zones Tank assembly: when using certain detergents, danger of irritation for eyes, skin, mucous membranes and respiratory tract and of asphyxia. Danger represented by the dirt collected from the environment (germs and chemical substances). Danger of crushing between the two tanks when the recovery tank is replaced on the solution tank.

• Never use the machine to transport people or things or to tow things. Do not tow the machine. • Never rest objects of any weight on the machine for any reason. • Never obstruct ventilation and heat dispersion slits. • Never remove, modify or circumvent safety devices.
5. Handling And Installation During all lifting operations, make sure the packaged machine is firmly anchored to avoid it tipping up or being accidentally dropped. Always load/unload trucks in adequately lit areas. Important 5.1. Lifting and transporting the packaged machine The machine, packaged on a wooden pallet by the Manufacturer, must be loaded using suitable equipment onto the transporting vehicle.
While installing or performing maintenance on the batteries, the operator must be provided with the necessary personal protection devices (gloves, goggles, overalls, etc) to limit the risk of accident. Keep away from open flames, avoid short circuiting the battery poles, avoid Danger sparks and do not smoke.
5.5.1. Choosing the battery charger Specific chargers are required for optimal performance of both Deep Cycle (Lead-Acid) and AGM batteries. Consult Dustbane literature/distributor to determine which charger is best. Refer to charger literature for more information. 5.6. Lifting and transporting the machine All phases must be performed in an adequately lit room and adopting the safety measures most appropriate to the situation.

Suction button All units / #2 Switches the suction motor responsible for drying the floor being washed on (“LED with light on”) or off (“LED off”). The light is on when there is power to the suction motor. Tap lever All units except Provides continuous control of the flow of detergent to the Brushes.
6.2. Mounting and adjusting the squeegee To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows: Fig./Abb./ 图 1. Check that the squeegee mount (ref. 2) is raised, otherwise lift it by means of the squeegee lever (ref. 5); 2. Insert the suction hose sleeve (ref. 4) fully into the squeegee; 3.
6.4. Mounting and changing the brush/drive disks Function Units Information Fitting the 400 XTT Rest the brush on the floor in front of the machine and center it with the brush / pad guard. Lower the head and repeatedly action the brush/drive control lever 400 XTT Traction 400 Eco until the brush automatically engages on the flange hub.
6.6. Preparing the machine for work Before starting work, wear overalls, ear protectors, non-slip waterproof shoes, mask to protect the respiratory tract, gloves and all other personal protection devices recommended by the supplier of the detergent used or necessitated by the work Important environment.

When there is no longer sufficient water in the detergent tank, the level indicator lights up. Stop and fill the tank;...
At the end of work: • Place the tap lever (except 400 Eco & 670 Eco) in the “CLOSED” position; • Release the brush/drive lever located under the handgrip. This turns the brush/drive motor off and the machine stops; • Stop the brush / pad; • Lift the lever to raise the squeegee from the floor to prevent the continuous pressure from warping the blades;...

Unscrew and remove the tank cap (ref. 1) from the dirty water drum (ref. 4); Fig./Abb./ Fig./Abb./ 图 图 2. Make sure the dirty water drum (fig. 10, ref. 4) is empty; Clean the float switch (ref.
9.2.4 Squeegee blades: replacing The squeegee blades collect the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare the way for perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing leaves the edge of the blade in contact with the floor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring it to be replaced.
Fig./Abb./ 图 9.2.5 Fuses: replacement The fuses protecting the brush and suction motors are located in the fuse holder (ref. 1) attached to the recovery Fig./Abb./ Fig./Abb./ 图 图 tank above the machine battery compartment. To replace the fuses: 1. Make sure the dirty water drum is empty and empty if necessary; 2.
9.3.2. Weekly operations 1. Clean the recovery tank float switch and make sure it is working correctly; 2. Clean the suction air filter and make sure it is undamaged. If necessary, replace. 3.
