SYMBOLS USED ON THE MACHINE Indicates the maximum gradient Parking brake symbol Used on the instrument panel to indicate the "parking brake on" red warning light and to indicate the machine's brake lever Indicates the risk of crushed hands...
• When your COMAC machine has reached the end of its long working life, dispose of the materials it contains (especially oils, batteries and electronic components) in an appropriate manner, and bearing in mind that the machine itself was constructed using 100% recyclable materials.
MACHINE PREPARATION 1. HANDLING THE PACKAGED MACHINE The machine is contained in specific packaging with a pallet for the handling with fork trucks. The packages cannot be placed on top of each other. The total mass of the machine with packaging is 240 kg (without batteries) The dimensions of the packaging is as follows: 65-75-85-100 B A: 1610mm...
MACHINE PREPARATION 5. STEERING COLUMN COMPONENTS The steering column components are identified as follows: Squeegee body lifting lever Brush head body lifting lever Horn button Detergent solution adjustment lever 6. FOOTBOARD FRONT-RIGHT COMPONENTS The components at the front right of the footboard are identified as follows: Accelerator pedal, forward 10.
MACHINE PREPARATION 9. MACHINE'S REAR COMPONENTS The rear components of the machine are identified as follows: 16. Recovery tank discharge cap 10. TYPE OF BATTERY To power the machine it is necessary to use: • liquidelectrolyte lead traction batteries; • sealed traction batteries with gas recombination or gel technology. OTHER TYPES MUST NOT BE USED.
3. Connect the battery connector (1) to the machine connector (2). ATTENTION: you are advised to have the electric connections made by a qualified, COMAC-trained technician ATTENTION: you are advised to always wear protective gloves, to avoid the risk of serious injury to your hands.
MACHINE PREPARATION To connect the batteries you must: 1. Make sure the recovery tank is empty, otherwise empty it completely 2. Make sure that the key switch is in the “OFF” position 3. Move the machine near to the battery charger 4.

MACHINE PREPARATION To connect the batteries you must: 1. Make sure the recovery tank is empty, otherwise empty it completely 2. Make sure that the key switch in the “0” position 3. Move the machine near to the battery charger 4.
MACHINE PREPARATION 16. BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR On the instrument panel of the machine there is a monitor (1) indicating (amongst other things) the battery charge status. If the upper line contains 8 light indicators, the battery charge level is 100%. If the edges of the indicators are flashing, this means the batteries are run down.
MACHINE PREPARATION 21. FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK The solution tank can be filled in three different ways: 1. Unscrew the filler cap (1) and fill using a hose. 2. Using the rubber cap (2), this supports the water hose on its own, be sure to unscrew the cap to allow the proper vent of air.
MACHINE PREPARATION 23. REGULATING THE DETERGENT Firstly, fully open the outflow of the tap, by means of the lever (3) on the steering column. During the first few meters, check that the amount of solution to wet the floor is sufficient, but not too much that it exits the splash-guard, the adjustment of the detergent application is made by means of lever (3) (shifting it downwards increases the flow, shifting it upwards decreases it).
MACHINE PREPARATION 28. DISC BRUSH ASSEMBLY 1. Make sure the parking brake is engaged and that the main switch is OFF 2. Connect the battery connector 3. Turn the key to the "ON/I" position. The base raises automatically. 4. Turn the key to the “OFF/0” position and remove it from the electrical board. WARNING: during this operation, verify that there are no people or objects near the brush.
(to display a different type - for instance partial - contact the qualified, COMAC-trained personnel). The bottom line shows the “service” setting (in this case there is no setting).
WORK 11. Lower the base by turning the right lever (4) clockwise, then lower the squeegee turning the left lever (5) counterclockwise. 12. Pressing the accelerator pedal (6 - right pedal), the machine starts moving, both the squeegee and the base lower and the brushes start to turn (if the i-drive switch is on the third working program) 13.
AT THE END OF THE WORK At the end of the work, and before carrying out any type of maintenance, perform the following operations: Close the tap (1) Raise the brush head by turning the right-hand lever (2) anticlockwise. Then raise the squeegee by turning the left-hand lever (3) clockwise.
DAILY MAINTENANCE PERFORM ALL MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS IN SEQUENCE 34. CLEANING THE RECOVERY TANK Disconnect the tube (1) from its seat, unscrew the drainage cap and empty the recovery tank. ATTENTION: Before performing any maintenance, remove the keys from the panel and disconnect the battery connector of the machine. WARNING: this operation must be carried out wearing gloves to protect against contact with dangerous solutions.
DAILY MAINTENANCE 36. CLEANING THE SQUEEGEE The careful cleaning of the whole vacuum unit ensures better drying and cleaning of the floor as well as greater duration of the suction motor. Proceed as follows for cleaning: Slide the suction tube (1) from the squeegee sleeve. Remove the squeegee (2) from the support arm by unscrewing the handwheel (3).
DAILY MAINTENANCE 38. DISC BRUSH DISASSEMBLY 1. Lift the base by turning the right lever (1) to move the base counterclockwise. WARNING: Before performing any maintenance, remove the keys from the panel and disconnect the battery connector of the machine. WARNING: During this operation, check there are no people or objects near the brush.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE 39. CLEANING THE SUCTION TUBE Whenever suction seems to be unsatisfactory, check that the suction tube (1) is not obstructed. If necessary clean with a jet of water as follows: 1. Make sure the recovery tank is empty, otherwise empty it 2.
EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE 40. REPLACING THE FRONT SQUEEGEE RUBBER Suction will be poor and the machine will not dry perfectly if the front squeegee rubber is worn. Proceed as follows to replace: Turn the key to the “OFF/0” position and remove it from the electrical board. Remove the squeegee from the support arm by unscrewing the handwheel.
TROUBLESHOOTING 43. INSUFFICIENT WATER ON THE BRUSHES Check there is water in the solution tank (1) Check that the tap (3) is turned on Clean the solution filter located at the front of the machine 44. THE SQUEEGEE DOES NOT DRY PERFECTLY Check the squeegee is clean Check the squeegee settings (see “MACHINE PREPARATION”) Clean the entire vacuum unit (see “WEEKLY MAINTENANCE”)
To restore the power supply to the motor, switch off the machine and wait for the fuses to cool down (about 40 seconds). If the switch disconnects the current several times in a row, contact the COMAC technical assistance centre.
DISPOSAL To dispose of the machine, take it to a demolition centre or an authorised collection centre. Before scrapping the machine it is necessary to remove and separate the following materials and send them to the appropriate collection centres in accordance with the environmental hygiene regulations currently in force: •...
CHOOSING AND USING THE BRUSHES POLYPROPYLENE BRUSH (PPL) Used on all types of floors. Good resistance to wear and tear, and hot water (no greater than 60°C). The Polypropylene brush is non-hygroscopic and therefore retains its characteristics even when working in wet conditions. NYLON BRUSH Used on all types of floors.
