BEFORE START-UP

WARNING!
At every machine start-up, check that, between
the deck (4 or 5, Fig. C) and the machine or
between the squeegee (12, Fig. C) and the
machine, there is no foreign material which
may prevent the deck and the squeegee from
lifting. This check is necessary because, if the
machine has been turned off without lifting the
deck and the squeegee, when turned on again,
the deck and the squeegee lift automatically.
Deck installation/removal
The machine can be equipped with either the
brush/pad-holder deck (4, Fig. C) or the cylindrical brush deck
(5).
For deck installation/removal see the procedure in
Maintenance chapter.
NOTE
When the deck is installed/removed, it may be
necessary to change the squeegee too,
because they must have the same width. For
correct deck and squeegee matching, see the
Technical Data paragraph.
Brush/pad-holder installation/removal
1. According to the kind of cleaning to be carried out, the
machine can be equipped either with brushes (8, Fig. K)
or pad-holders (9) with pads (10) together with the
appropriate deck.
For the installation/removal, proceed as follows.
2. Insert the ignition key (12, Fig. B) and turn it to "I".
WARNING!
Before pressing the switch (4, Fig. B), always
check that, between the deck (4, Fig. C) and the
machine there is no foreign material which may
prevent the deck from lifting.
3. Lift the deck by pressing the switch (4, Fig. B).
4. Turn the ignition key (12, Fig. B) to "0" and remove it.
5. Install the brushes/pad-holders (8 or 9, Fig. K) and lift
them completely, then turn them clockwise (see the
arrows in Fig. K) until the end of stroke.
6. To remove the brushes/pad-holders, carry out steps 2 to
