Page 19: Preparing To Work
N.B.: the feet should be positioned keeping the heels on the footrest, the sole of the foot directly below the fingers should push the pedals. N.B.: the ideal position is that which allows you to grip the steering wheel correctly with the palms slightly lower than the shoulders. With a good grip on the steering wheel, the elbows should be bent by about 120°. -
Page 20: Work
11. Move to the left side of the machine and open the left side casing (5) (Fig. 5). 12. Make sure the electronic brake is engaged. If it isn't, turn the lever (6) in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 6). The traction gear motor is located on the rear right-hand side of the machine. -
Page 21: Scrubbing Without Drying
The machine can be used for the following types of work: • SCRUBBING WITHOUT DRYING; • SCRUBBING WITH DRYING; • DRYING; As an example, we will look at the SCRUBBING WITH DRYING work type. To begin working in this mode, proceed as follows: 1. -
Page 22: Scrubbing With Drying
SCRUBBING WITH DRYING To carry out “SCRUBBING AND DRYING” tasks, proceed as follows: 1. Sit on the driver’s seat and turn on the machine. 2. Lower the brush head body by turning the brush head control lever (3) on the rear part of the steering column (Fig. 3). 3. -
Page 23: Extra Brush Head Pressure
N.B.: in order to disengage the reverse gear, disengage the lever (7) underneath the steering wheel (Fig. 7). N.B.: once the lever has been engaged (7), the acoustic signalling device will be activated in order to signal that the machine's reverse gear has been engaged. -
Page 24: Braking Control
BRAKING CONTROL The machine has an encoder to help braking and also a mechanical brake. If the machine is moving and the accelerator pedal (6) is released, the machine brakes, decelerating gently, until it stops the encoder. Only when the encoder has stopped is the electric brake engaged. If the machine is moving and the brake pedal (19) (Fig. -
Page 25: Activating The Side Brush (Optional)
ACTIVATING THE SIDE BRUSH (OPTIONAL) If the side brush needs to be used during the floor scrubbing operations, and therefore with the brush head in its working position, press the side brush head activation/deactivation button (15) on the left-hand side of the steering column (Fig. 14). N.B.: when the side brush is in function, the LED indicator light inside the button (15) will be on. -
Page 26: Automatic Request For Technical Assistance (Ffm Version)
The machine has an automatic service for activating an urgent technical assistance request. To activate this function, the operator simply needs to press the button under the hatch bearing the symbol “SOS”. N.B.: in order to activate this urgent technical assistance request the machine needs to be equipped with the FIMAP FLEET MANAGEMENT kit. -
Page 27: Overflow Device
OVERFLOW DEVICE The machine is not equipped with an overflow device, because the volume of the recovery tank is greater than the capacity of the solution tank. In extraordinary cases, there is a mechanical device (float) under the recovery tank lid that, when the recovery tank is full, shuts off the air to the vacuum motor intake to protect it;... - Page 28 INTERVAL MACHINE COMPONENTS PROCEDURE Clean the filter in the machine's water system (see “CLEANING THE WATER Machine water system SYSTEM FILTER”). Check that the rubber blades on the squeegee body are intact and inspect for Squeegee rubber blades wear; if necessary, replace these (see “REPLACING THE SQUEEGEE BODY RUBBER BLADES”).

Page 29: Emptying The Recovery Tank
DRAINING THE RECOVERY TANK Proceed as follows to empty the recovery tank: 1. Remove the drainage hose of the recovery tank from the clamps; it is located at the rear of the machine (Fig. 1). 2. Bend the end of the drainage tube in order to create a choke and prevent the content from coming out (Fig. 2), then position the tube on the discharge surface, unscrew the cap, and gradually release the tube. -
Page 30: Cleaning The Side Brush (Scrubbing Version)
N.B.: you are advised to invert the right and left-hand brushes every day. ATTENTION: if the brushes are not new, and have deformed bristles, it is better to reassemble them in the same position in order to prevent the different inclination of the bristles from overloading the brush motor, as well as to prevent excessive vibrations. CLEANING THE LATERAL BRUSH (SCRUBBING VERSION) Careful cleaning of the brush guarantees better cleaning of the floor as well as a longer brush head gearmotor lifespan. -
Page 31: Draining The Solution Tank
3. Remove the recycle filter (25), only valid for FLR versions (Fig. 30). 4. Rinse the recycle filter thoroughly under the jet of the tank cleaning accessory. N.B.: use a spatula to eliminate any dirt that is particularly difficult to remove. 5. -

Page 33: Replacing The Side Squeegee Splashguard Rubber Blades
4. Remove the splash guards (12) from the left splash guard body and replace it with a new one or else turn it around (Fig. 11). 5. Repeat the operations in reverse order to reassemble all the parts. 6. Repeat the operations just carried out also for the right side casing as well. REPLACING THE SIDE SQUEEGEE SPLASHGUARD RUBBER BLADES If the splashguard rubber blades of the side squeegee are damaged they cannot work properly, namely they cannot convey the dirty detergent solution towards the squeegee, therefore the rubber blades need to be checked. -
Page 34: Adjustment Interventions
ADJUSTMENT INTERVENTIONS ADJUSTING THE SQUEEGEE BODY'S RUBBER BLADES The careful adjustment of the squeegee body rubber blades guarantees better cleaning of the floor. To adjust the squeegee body blades, proceed as follows: 1. Sit on the driver’s seat. 2. Insert the key (1) into the main switch on the control panel. Bring the main switch to its "I" position by turning the key (1) a quarter turn clockwise (Fig. -
Page 35: Adjusting The Brush Head Body Side Splash Guards (Scrubbing Version)
N.B.: by decreasing the distance between the squeegee support and the floor, the rubber blades present in the squeegee's body move closer to the floor. N.B.: the right-hand and left-hand knobs must be rotated the same number of times, so that the squeegee is parallel to the floor when it is working. -
Page 36: Adjusting The Side Brush (Sweeping Version)
ADJUSTING THE SIDE BRUSH (SWEEPING VERSION) If the side brush does not channel the dirt efficiently towards the centre of the machine, you must adjust its height in relation to the ground, as follows: 1. Sit on the driver’s seat. 2. -
