Professionals must carry out all the installing and maintenance procedures. Installation instructions: • Turn push-button (d) to off.
GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS Please keep strictly to the following regulations in order to avoid any damage to the user or to the machine. Read thoroughly all labels on the machine, do not ever cover them and replace them immediately when damaged. Read operating instructions WITH DUE CARE before starting up the machine or performing maintenance. The best working conditions are at a temperature ranging from -10° and + 40°C and with humidity between 30% and 95%.
OPERATING THE MACHINE WORKING POSITION Figure 8 The operator stands on the ground to operate the machine, moving behind it and holding it by its handle. CONTROL COMPONENTS AND THEIR POSITIONS Figure 9 • Suction off (a): this moves a flap to close off the fan's suction duct. • Filter-shaker (b): manual control to shake dust off the filter. • Side brush lever (c): pull this lever out to lift the side brush. Push the lever up to release it and lower the brush.
WORK Figure 11 • As the side brush is not provided with suction, use it on borders only. Figure 12 • Push the machine to move forward. Figure 13 TRACTION VERSION • Pull the traction handle to move forward. Figure 14 • In case of bulky waste, press down on the handle to raise the front of the machine, to allow the central brush to sweep it up.
WORK Figure 15 For efficient suction clean the filter approximately every 10 minutes. Proceed as follows: – turn suction off (lever a); – actuate manual filter-shaker several times (lever b); – turn suction back and start working. • Turn suction off (lever a) when you are about to start working on wet or damp floor surfaces. Figure 16 • Periodically check the dirt collection bin, pulling it out from the machine after releasing its hooks. Empty it as necessary.

MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS WARNING: Before any adjustment and/or maintenance procedure always switch off the machine. CLEANING THE FILTER WARNING: always wear glove while doing this operation to avoid contact with dangerous substances. Carefully clean the filter once a week by proceeding as follows: Figure 18 • Turn the machine off. • Remove the debris hopper. • Lift the filter-shake and clamp it in its lifted position using the special pin furnished with the machine.
MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS ADJUSTING THE SIDE BRUSH Figure 20 To adjust the brush height, regulate the screw (a) placed inside the brush bearing bracket (b). The brush should be pressed on the floor for about 2 cm. ADJUSTING THE CENTRAL BRUSH Figure 21 The central brush should work pressed on the floor for about 7/8 mm. To adjust its height, regulate the two register screws (a) and (b) on both sides of the machine. Adjusting the central brush make sure to keep it aligned.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE: THE CENTRAL BRUSH DOES NOT CLEAN • The brush is worn or improperly positioned: adjust its position or, if necessary, have it replaced at your nearest service centre. • The waste bin is full: empty it. • The brush does not rotate because the belt is broken: have it replaced at your nearest service centre. THE MACHINE CREATES AIRBORNE DUST WHEN WORKING • Flaps ensuring good suction are torn. Replace them. • The filter is clogged: thoroughly clean the filter.
SCRAPPING OF THE MACHINE The machine is composed of: iron materials, plastics, and rubber. The battery-operated version of the machine is also equipped with a battery which may have to be replaced several times during the working life of the machine. Turn to authorized waste collection and disposal agencies for ecological waste disposal when replacing the battery or demolishing the machine.
