HOW TO GET STARTED The Namco Floorwash machine is a mechanical collection device that can achieve excellent results even with the use of water without detergent. An excellent result is achieved with the use of specific detergents. The machine comes with universal brushes (gr 0.12). Anyway, it is possible to request specific brushes to our customer service according to the type of surface to be treated. Use foam-controlled detergents to avoid excessive foaming. Do not use pure acids.
ON/OFF Before the start-up of the device, check that the electrical cord and the machine are not malfunctioning in any way. If this is not the case, do not use the device and contact our service centre as soon as possible. 1 Insert the plug in a 120 230-volt wall outlet. 2 Press the kick-start pedal situated at the bottom right side of the machine.
FUNCTIONING Check that all steps described above have been completed correctly before using the machine. Before starting the washing procedure with the machine, remove any solid residual such as dust lumps, stones, glass, paper etc. from the surface which has to be treated. 1 After the engine has turned on, move the machine back and forth with linear movements. The lever placed beneath the handle will allow you to dispense the liquid previously poured in the tank.
3 The recovery of the dispensed liquid occurs automatically by means of mechanical collection. The liquid will flow into the waste situated in the lower part of the machine. It is important to empty the waste when the seep liquid reaches the maximum mark printed on the back of the waste, thus avoiding an accidental release of the same.
