Always pay attention to other people, children in particular, present in the place where you are working.
  • Page 24 The fluids collected during operation contain detergent, disinfectant, water and organic and inorganic material. They must be disposed off in accordance with current legislation. In the case of malfunction and/or faulty operation, turn the machine off immediately (disconnecting it from the mains power supply or batteries) and do not tamper. Contact a service centre authorised by the Manufacturer.
  • Page 25 HANDLING AND INSTALLATION 5.1. Lifting and transporting the packaged machine  IMPORTANT During all lifting operations, make sure the packaged machine is firmly anchored to avoid it tipping up or being accidentally dropped. Always load/unload lorries in adequately lit areas. The machine, packaged on a wooden pallet by the Manufacturer, must be loaded using suitable equipment onto the transporting vehicle.
  • Page 26 The packaging may be kept as it can be reused to protect the machine if it is moved to another site or to a repair workshop. Otherwise it must be disposed off in compliance with current legislation.  IMPORTANT Make sure the mains circuit is suitably earthed and that the sockets (and any adaptors used) ensure the continuity of the earth conductors.
  • Page 27 5.4.1. Batteries: preparation ! DANGER 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 naked flames, avoid short circuiting the battery poles, avoid sparks and do not smoke.

  • Page 36 The flow of water must be adjusted in proportion to the desired advance speed. The slower the machine moves forwards, the less water is needed. Persist when washing particularly dirty points to give the detergent time to perform its mechanical action detaching and suspending the dirt and the brushes time to exert an effective mechanical action.
  • Page 37 Use suitable personal protection devices. Drain the water with the machine disconnected from the power supply. To empty the tank: • move the machine near a drain; • remove the cap (fig. 9, ref. 1); • when the detergent tank is completely empty, replace the cap (fig. 9, ref. 1). i INFORMATION The water and detergent solution can also be used to wash the dirty water drum.
