SQUEEGEE
• Do not handle the squeegee with bare hands:
wear gloves and any safety clothing needed to
carry out the operation.
Detach the squeegee from the machine and clean
it under running water using a sponge or a brush.
Check the efficiency and the wear on the strips in
contact with the floor. They are designed to scrape
the film of detergent and water on the floor and
to isolate that portion of the surface to enhance
the vacuum of the suction motor: this ensures that
the machine will dry very efficiently. Working con-
stantly in this manner tends to round or to dete-
riorate the sharp edge of the strip, thus reducing
drying efficiently. This is why the squeegee strips
must be replaced.
To replace the worn blades, follow the instructions
in the relative section. Turn the blades around to
wear down the other sharp corners or to install
new ones.
8.5
ACCESSORIES
Remove and clean the brush or the abrasive pad
disk.
• To avoid damaging the floor and the machine,
carefully check if foreign matter, such as metallic
parts, screws, chips, cords or similar items, has be-
come jammed.
Check that the brushes are flat as they work on
the surface (check for any irregular wear on the
brushes or on the abrasive disks). If necessary,
adjust the slant of the action on the floor.
Use only the accessories recommended by the
manufacturer: other products may reduce operat-
ing safety.
8.6
MACHINE BODY
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to clean the exterior of
the machine and, if necessary, a soft brush to elim-
inate tough dirt. The machine's shockproof surface
is rough to make it harder to see scratches caused
during use. However, this does not make it easier
to remove tough stains on the surface. It is pro-
hibited to use steam machines, hoses with
running water and high-pressure cleaners.
8.7
BATTERIES
PB-Acid batteries
Carry out maintenance operations in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions and with all
the other instructions provided in this manual.
Exposing the element plates (not completely im-
mersed in the acid solution) will lead to rapid oxida-
tion and irreparably reduce the element's operating
capacities.
An overflowing acid solution may corrode the ma-
chine.
Use battery chargers recommended by the manu-
facturer and, in any case, those that are suitable
for the type of battery to be charged.
Always charge batteries in well-ventilated rooms:
there is an explosion risk!
The use of gel or maintenance-free batteries is
highly recommended.
GEL batteries
Carry out maintenance operations in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions and with all
the other instructions provided in this manual.
Use only those battery chargers recommended by
the manufacturer.
8.8
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
For all the operations described in the following
scheduled maintenance table, refer to the instructions
and detailed warnings in the relative sections.
8.9
RECOMMENDED SPARE PARTS
You'll always be able to use your machine as efficien-
tly as possible by maintaining a stock of the most
common consumable materials and by scheduling
routine and extraordinary maintenance. Contact your
dealer for a list of these spare parts.
