SPECIFIC USE
This machine is a floor scrubber-drier: it must be
used to scrub and to vacuum liquids of flat, rigid,
horizontal, smooth or moderately rough and uni-
form floors that are free from obstacles in both
civic and industrial environments. Any other use
is prohibited.
Please refer very carefully to the safety information
reported in this manual.
The scrubber-drier distributes a quantity of a water
and detergent solution (adjustable) on the surface
to be cleaned, while the brushes remove any dirt
on the ground. The machine's suction system,
using a ground squeegee, perfectly dries the liquids
and the dirt just removed from the front brushes
in a single pass.
By efficiently combining a cleaning detergent with
various types of brushes (or abrasive disks), the
machine can adapt to all the various combinations
of floors and dirt.
