brake, then proceed as follows:

If the device does not come to a halt on
a ramp with a gradient of 2% when you
release the drive pedal, then the emer-
gency-stop button may be pressed for
safety reasons only if the mechanical
functioning of the immobilizing brake
has been checked properly before com-
missioning the device.
 Switch off the machine only after it
comes to a complete halt (on an even
surface) and call up the aftersales serv-
ice!
 Further, follow all warning instructions
for braking.
ƽ
Danger
Danger of tipping if gradient is too high.

The gradient in the direction of travel
should not exceed 10%.
Danger of tipping when driving round
bends at high speed.
Danger of slipping on wet floors.

Drive slowly when cornering.
Danger of tipping on unstable ground.

Only use the machine on sound surfac-
es.
Danger of tipping with excessive sideways
tilt.

The gradient perpendicular to the direc-
tion of travel should not exceed 10%.
 Release emergency-stop button by
turning.
 Sit on the seat and set main switch to
"1".
 Set the drive direction using the drive
direction button at the operator console.
 Determine the driving speed by press-
ing the drive pedal.
 Stop the machine: Release the drive

When switching on the display, the follow-
ing messages will appear in sequence:
– „ < SELFTEST >“: The control conducts
a self-test.
– „Water E-----F“ (model Adv): Water lev-
el in the fresh water tank (lasts for 6
seconds).
„OpHrs xxxxxhxxm+“ (Classic model):
Operating hours (lasts for 6 seconds)
– "Battery: E-----F“: Charging status of
battery.
In case of overloading, the drive motor au-
tomatically switches off after a certain peri-
od. A fault message is displayed on the
console. The concerned unit gets switched
off if the controls get overheated.

Allow machine to cool down at least for
15 minutes.
 Turn the main switch to "0" and turn it
back to "1".
ṇ Warning
Risk of damage. Only use the recommend-
ed detergents. With respect to different de-
tergents the operator bears the increased
risk regarding the operational safety and
danger of accident.
Only use detergents that are free from sol-
vents, hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric
acid.
Follow the safety instructions for using de-
tergents.
Note
Do not use highly foaming detergents.
Recommended detergents:
 Open the cover of the fresh water reser-
voir.
 Fill fresh water (max. 60 °C) until 15 mm
below the upper edge of the tank.
 Pour in detergent.
Note
If detergent is added to the cleaning deter-
gent tank first, followed by water, there
could be a lot of foam.
