SPECIFIC USE
This appliance is suited for the commercial use, e.g. in
hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops, offices, and
rental companies.
This machine is a floor scrubber-drier: it must be used
to scrub and to vacuum liquids of flat, rigid, horizon-
tal, smooth or moderately rough and uniform floors
that are free from obstacles in both civic and indus-
trial 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 ma-
chine can adapt to all the various combinations of
floors and dirt.
