Tear off the rubber blades from the plastic support.
Assemble the new blades on the plastic support by
the means of the plastic pins that have to be fixed in
the holes placed the blades.
Push the plastic support of the squeegee blades into
the squeegee body and screw the knobs ( Photo E - 2,
E - 3 ) to secure it to the squeegee body. Reassemble
the squeegee to its support (see 7.2.1)
6.2.4. SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT
The knob screw on the squeegee support (Photo
E - 4) adjust the squeegee's inclination with respect to
the floor. The two screws on the sides, connected to
the rear wheels of the squeegee (Photo E - 6), are to
adjust the pressure of the squeegee to the floor. When
the squeegee is perfectly adjusted, the rear squeegee
blade, sliding as it moves, bends in all points forming
an angle of 45° with the floor.
As the machine operates (advances), it is possible to
operate on the inclination knob and pressure screws
( Photo E - 4 ; Photo E - 6 ) to adjust the inclination and
pressure of the squeegee blades on the floor.
Squeegee drying must be uniform along the entire
drying line: damp patches mean that drying is insuf-
ficient; turn the adjustment knobs to optimise drying.
6.2.5. SPLASH GUARD ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY
The splash guard is attached to the brush plate (Photo
A - 6) by interlocking on the plastic cover.
To remove the splash guard is sufficient to pull it
down until it detaches from the plastic cover.
To replace the splash guard,push it into the bottom
edge of the plastic cover from one end and continue
pushing up to the other end.

ACCESSORY ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY
(BRUSHES, PAD DRIVERS AND ABRASIVE
DISKS)
• Never use the machine if brushes or pad drivers
and abrasive disks are not perfectly installed.
Assembly:
Make sure that the brush plate is raised; otherwise lift
it by following the instructions provided in the spe-
cific section.
Make sure that the ignition key on the control panel
is in position "0".
Bring the brushes (or the guide disks equipped with
abrasive disks) near the connections, under the brush
plate; lift them, bring them through the centering
flange, and turn them opposite the rotation direction
until you hear the stable "click" connection.
• Do not allow the length of the rows of brushes to
become lower than 1 cm.
• Do not allow the thickness of the abrasive disks to
become less than 1 cm.
Working with excessively worn brushes or excessively
thin abrasive disks may damage the machine and the
floor.
Regularly check the wear on these parts before start-
ing to work.
Disassembly or replacement:
Make sure that the brush plate is raised; otherwise lift
it by following the instructions provided in the spe-
cific section.
Make sure that the ignition key on the control panel
is in position "0".
While holding the brushes (or the guide disks) with the
hands under the plate, turn them in the rotation direc-
tion while lowering to release them from the guide plate.

FILLING AND DRAINING THE DETERGENT
SOLUTION TANK
☞ The temperature of the water or the detergent
should never exceed 50°C.
☞ Always empty the detergent solution tank before
filling it up.
To fill the solution tank:
- Remove the plug in the back of the machine.
- Leave some space between the mouth of the plug
and the liquid level.
- Add the required quantity of the chemical product,
considering the percentage indicated by the supplier,
with reference to the full tank capacity listed on the
product sheet.
- Use only those products suitable for the floor and
the dirt to be removed.
• The machine was designed to be used with
non-foaming and biodegradable detergents made
specifically for scrubber-driers. The use of other
chemical products (such as sodium hypochlorite,
oxidisers, solvents or hydrocarbons) may damage
or destroy the machine.
- Follow the safety regulations specified in the rela-
tive section and indicated on the detergent container.
- Contact the machine manufacturer to obtain a com-
plete list of available and suitable detergents.
• Always add the detergent after filling the tank with
water to prevent foam from being created inside.
- Do not leave the water hose unattended and insert
it completely into the tank: the hose might move and
get sensitive parts of the machine wet.
- Close the tank cover.
To drain the solution water tank:
- Open the valve located at the bottom of the ma-
chine in the back ( Photo D - 1 ) and wait until the tank
has been completely emptied.
- Close the drain valve.
6.5.
DRAINING THE RECOVERY TANK
The dirty water must be drained in accordance with
national regulations.
The user is completely responsible for ensuring com-
pliance with such rules.
After the detergent solution is finished, always empty
