BEFORE USE

HANDLING OF THE PACKED MACHINE
The machine is supplied with suitable packing
foreseen for fork lift truck handling.
The total weight is 111 kg.
Packing dimensions:
Base: 1175 mm x 665 mm
Height: 1185 mm
ATTENTION:
Do not place more than two packings on top of
each other.
UNPACKING OF THE MACHINE
1. Remove the external packing.
2. Unscrew the brackets (1+2) that secure the
machine to the pallet.
3. Move the machine backwards, as indicated in
the figure, avoiding heavy contacts to mechani-
cal parts.
4. Keep the pallet for eventual transport.
SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY
With the squeegee support lowered, slide the
two stud bolts (1) placed on the upper part of the
squeegee, inside the slots on the support. Block
the squeegee by rotating the lever (2) clockwise.
Insert the squeegee hose (3) into its coupling, re-
specting its position as indicated in the figure.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SQUEEGEE HEIGHT
The squeegee must be adjusted in height de-
pending on the rubber wear. In order to guaran-
tee a perfect drying during the operation, the
lower blade of the rear squeegee rubber (4) must
work slightly bent backwards (operator side) in
uniformed way in all its length.
Acting clockwise upon the two registers (5) it is
possible to increase the bending of the rubber.
Acting counterclockwise it is possible to de-
crease the rubber bending.
A label placed near the two registers (5) indicates
rotation sense to increase or reduce the height.
Note: The wheels of the squeegee support must
be adjusted through the registers (5) at the same
height so that the squeegee works parallel to the
floor.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SQUEEGEE INCLINATION
In case of need, to increase the rubber bending
in the central part, it is necessary to tilt the
squeegee body rotating counterclockwise the
register (6). To increase the rubber bending on
the squeegee extremities, rotate the register
clockwise.
SPLASH GUARD ASSEMBLY
The two splash guards have to be assembled
onto the brushes base group. Insert the metal
strips inside the suitable slots present on the
rubber. Place the round hole at the flat extremity
of the strip onto the screw placed in the front
part of the brushes base group. Secure the strips
through the nut blocking it.
17
Hook the spring in the rear part of the brushes
base group to the slot placed at the extremity of
the metal strip still free. Please act as above for
both the splash guard rubbers, paying attention
to reduce to the minimum the gap between the
two rubbers in the front part of the brushes base
group.
With brushes assembled, the splash guard must
slightly touch the floor.
MANUAL ASSEMBLY OF THE BRUSHES
ATTENTION:
Check that the mains plug is disconnected.
1. Acting upon the pedal (12) lift the brushes
base group.
2. With the brushes base group in lifted position,
insert the brushes into their plate seat under-
neath the brushes base turning them until the
three metal buttons are properly seated in their
slots; rotate energically the brushes to push the
button towards the coupling spring until they
get blocked.
The figure shows the rotating sense for brushes
coupling.
For the brushes bases ruby45e and ruby55e, we
suggest to invert daily the brushes position, in
order to guarantee a longer operating life of
them. Whenever brushes were deformed we
suggest to reassemble them in the same position,
avoiding that the different inclination of the bris-
tles causes excessive motor overload or trouble-
some vibrations.
