INSUFFICIENT WATER ON THE PAD
1. Check the valve – located beneath the symbol – (1) is turned on.
2. Confirm that there is water in the solution tank.
THE MACHINE DOES NOT CLEAN WELL
1. Check the condition of the pad and, if necessary, replace it.
2. For cleaning floors where the dirt is particularly resistant, we recommend the
use of special brushes supplied upon request and according to needs.
THE SQUEEGEE DOES NOT DRY EFFECTIVELY
1. Confirm that the squeegee blades are clean.
2. Adjust the inclination of the squeegee.
3. Ensure the vacuum hose is correctly inserted in its housing on the recovery
tank.
4. Check the inner filter of the recovery tank to ensure it is not dirty and, if neces-
sary, clean it thoroughly.
5. Disassemble the entire vacuum unit and clean it.
6. Replace the squeegee blades, if worn.
7. Ensure the vacuum motor switch is turned on.
8. Check squeegee wheel adjustment.
TOO MUCH FOAM IS GENERATED
Check that low-foam detergent is being used. If necessary add a small amount of defoaming liquid to the recovery tank.
Remember that more foam is generated when the floors are not very dirty. Dilute the detergent more when cleaning floors that
are not very dirty.

ABRASIVE BRUSH
The bristles of this type of brush are coated with highly aggressive abrasives. It is used to clean very dirty floors.
THICKNESS OF THE BRISTLES
Thicker bristles are more rigid and are therefore used on smooth floors or floors with small joints. On uneven floors or those with
deep joints, it is advisable to use softer bristles which can enter the gaps easier. Remember that when the bristles are worn and
too short, they will become rigid and are no longer able to penetrate and clean deep down. In this case the brush tends to jump.

1. The traditional pad holder is fitted with a series of anchor points that allow the abrasive floor pad to be held and dragged
while working.
2. The CENTER LOCK type pad holder not only has anchor points, but also a snap-type central locking system made of plastic
that allows the abrasive floor pad to be perfectly centered and held without any risk of it becoming detached.
