MACHINE PREPARATION HANDLING OF THE PACKED MACHINE The machine is packed in a specific package provided on a pallet for the handling with fork trucks. Do not place more than two packages on top of each other. The total weight is 160 kg for MEDIA26, 180 kg for MEDIA32.
MACHINE PREPARATION INSTALLATION OF THE BATTERIES INTO THE MACHINE The batteries must be fitted in the suitable compartment under the recovery tank and must be handled by using appropriate lifting equipment suitable both for the weight and for the coupler system. They must moreover satisfy the requirements quoted in the Specification CEI 21-5.
MACHINE PREPARATION RECHARGE OF THE BATTERIES In order not to cause the risk of permanent damages to the batteries, one should at all costs avoid their complete discharge and effect recharging within a few minutes after that the signal lamp of discharged batteries begins to blink.
MACHINE PREPARATION SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY The squeegee, which is packed separately from the machine, should be assembled as shown in the figure. Insert first the left squeegee pin (1) in the left arm slot, then the right pin (2) into the right slot, paying attention to keep the spring and the washer over the blade of the arm itself.
MACHINE PREPARATION BRUSHES ASSEMBLY 1. Lift the brushes base acting upon the pedal (1) 2. Hook the lever (2) 3. Turn the key into position 0. ATTENTION! To carry out the operations of brush assembly with connected current can cause damage to the hands. 4.
MACHINE PREPARATION RECOVERY TANK Open the cover (1) and check that, the suction connection (2) is properly blocked by fitting the notches into its proper seat rotating it clockwise and that it is connected regularly to the hose which goes to the suction motor. Check furthermore that, the squeegee hose (3) is properly placed in their seats and that the plug of the exhaust pipe, which is located in the rear part of the machine, is closed.
GENERAL RULES OF SECURITY The rules below have to be followed carefully in order to avoid damages to the operator and to the machine. Read the labels carefully on the machine. Do not cover them for any reason and replace them immediately if damaged The machine must be used exclusively by authorized staff that has been instructed for its use During the working of the machine, pay attention to other people and especially to the children Do not mix different detergents, avoiding harmful odours...
PERFORMANCE SETTING FOR WORK 1. Connect the machine connector to the one of the batteries (1) 2. Turn the key of the general switch (2) into position I (clockwise). Immediately, the signal lamp comes on (3) 3. Press the traction motor switch (1) 4.
PERFORMANCE MOVEMENT Forwards: The traction of these machines is obtained through a flat belt put into tension with the lever (1) as indicated in the figure. The movement speed is proportional to the force carried on the lever. Reverse movement: The reverse movement of the machine will be activated pushing the control lever forward (1) and acting on the lower part of the motor switch (2).
PERFORMANCE DEVICE TOO FULL The machine is equipped with a float, which intervenes when the recovery tank is full causing the closure of the suction hose. It may be noticed, that the suction motor rises considerably its revolutions. In that case, it is necessary to stop immediately the suction motor and proceed with the emptying of the recovery tank taking off the plug of the exhaust pipe.
ON COMPLETION OF THE WORK Having finished the job and before any type of maintenance is done: 1. Close the cock through the lever (1) 2. Lift the brush base acting on the pedal (2) and hook the lever (3). 3.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CLEANING RECOVERY TANK Release the hose placed on the rear panel Unscrew the exhaust plug and empty the tank completely ATTENTION! This operation has to be carried out using gloves to protect from contact with dangerous solutions. 3. Lift the cover of the recovery tank 4.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CLEANING SUCTION FILTER 1. Lift the cover 2. Take off the suction plug by rotating it counterclockwise 3. Take off the filter with the antifoam protection 4. With a water jet clean the walls and the bottom of the filter 5.
DAILY MAINTENANCE REPLACEMENT FRONT SQUEEGEE RUBBER If the front squeegee rubber is worn, a good suction is not achieved and therefore the machine does not dry perfectly. In that case proceed as follows with the replacement: 1. Take off the squeegee loosening the register (1) 2.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE CLEANING OF THE SQUEEGEE HOSE Weekly or whenever suction seems to be unsatisfactory check that the squeegee hose is not obstructed. Eventually, clean it proceeding as follows: 1. Take off the hose from its coupling on the squeegee 2.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE INSUFFICIENT WATER ONTO THE BRUSHES 1. Make sure that the key (1) is on position I 2. Make sure that the switches of the solenoid valve and of the brushes are on (2) 3. Make sure that the traction motor switch is in forward position (3) and that the handle bar is lowered 4.
CHOICE AND USE OF BRUSHES POLYPROPYLENE BRUSH (PPL) It is used on all types of floors, which are hot water resistant (not more than 60°C). The Polypropylene brush is nonhygroscopic and therefore conserves its characteristics even if working in the wet conditions. NYLON BRUSH It is used on all types of floors with excellent wear and hot water resistance (more than 60°C).
