and smooth hard surfaces such as concrete, ceramic tile floor, stone, and synthetic
materials, etc. Typically, this machine is designed solely for cleaning smooth ooring
in an indoor environment like schools, hospitals/health care facilities, ofce buildings,
and marketplace, but it is not allowed to use it on earth surface, grassland, articial
turf, or carpeted areas, neither can it be used for road cleaning. Any operation other
than those stated in the operator manual is not recommended.
PROTECT THE NVIRONMENT
Please dispose of the pack materials,
old machine parts and used battery
cells following local waste disposal
regulations.
See to it that recycling carried out
appropriately

Parts need to be cleaned up: A
solution tank, brush, pad holder
or pad, a squeegee assembly, a
vacuum motor and a recovery
tank.
Brushing function is controlled
by the buttons on the control
panel. Turn on brush motor
switch and squeegee lifting
switch, lay the brush and
squeegee down. Set forward/
backward switch to "forward"
position, adjust the speed switch
appropriately (turn the switch to proper speed and water yield based on different
types of ground). Release the manual brake and depress the pedal to start washing.
There are two brushes available, and the width of brush head is 360mm (14 inches).
NOTE: The type of brush head or cleaning pad is determined by the severity and
type of dirt. For special suggestions, please refer to Section Brush Information of
this manual or conduct the representatives of GAOMEI.
Scrubbing Method
Water and detergent in solution tank ow to the brush and ground via the magnetic
valve. The solution of water and detergent is used to scrub the ground by brush head
rotation. The squeegee will take up the waste water into solution tank with vacuum
motor while the machine is operating.

Operation
Fill Solution Tank
FOR SAFETY: Stop the machine on a smooth surface when leaving or servicing it,
turn it off and remove the key.
The water injection hole for solution tank is located at the back of machine.
WARNING: Do not use ammable materials in the tank in case of explosion
or re.
Scrubbing method: Open water injection hole of solution tank and inject some water
(water temperature should not be higher than 60
℃
). Pour the detergent into tank
based on the mixture ratio specied on tank. Fill warm water into the tank. Defoamer
is needed in recovery tank (please refer to the mixture ratio on the package).
FOR SAFETY: When using machine, follow mixing and handling instructions on
chemical containers.
NOTE: When ling the solution tank with a bucket,, make sure that it is clean. Do
not use the same bucket for lling and draining he machine.
ATTENTION: For conventional scrubbing, only use recommended cleaning
detergents. Machine damage due to improper detergent usage, such as washing
powder, will void the manufacturer's warranty.

Pre-operational Check
□
Check whether there is liquid leakage on the machine.
□
Check tank cover seals for damage and wear.'
□
Check the sewage lter for blockage.
□
Check the conditions of scrubbing brushes. Remove any string, banding, plastic
wrap, or other debris wrapped around them.
□
Check the squeegees for damage, wear, and for deection adjustment.
□
Check the suction hose and sewage inlet of squeegee for blockage or rupture on
the pipe.
□
Drain and clean recovery tank.
□
Check brake and steering for proper operation.
□
Check speaker and backup light for proper operation.
□
Check service records to determine maintenance requirements.
Before Operation
Pick up oversized debris in advance before cleaning. Pick up pieces of wire, string ,twine,
etc that may be wrapped around the scrubbing brush.
Make a plan for scrubbing in advance. Try to arrange long runs with minimum
stopping and starting. Do an entire oor or section at one time.
Sweep the machine to prevent streaking.

water flow. Set direction switch (forward/backward) according to the direction the
machine moves to.
NOTE 1: The machine is in normal scrubbing state when forward/backward switch is
set to "forward" position.
NOTE 2: Squeegee assembly will rise automatically, vacuum motor stops and
backup light is on for alarm when forward/backward switch is set to "backward"
position.
4. Press the pedal to start scrubbing.

Operation
During Operation
Drive as straight a path as possible. Avoid bumping into the posts or scraping the sides
of machine. Overlap the scrub paths for several centimeters (several inches).
Avoid turning the steering wheel substantially since the machine is sensitive to
steering wheel rotation. Avoid sudden turning unless emergency.
Please do scrubbing from the bottom when the machine reaches to the bottom of
passage.
Adjust machine speed and water ow as needed during scrubbing. Keep driving at a
moderate speed with minimum water ow.
Keep the machine running to avoid damages to the ground.
If poor scrubbing performance is observed, stop scrubbing and refer to
troubleshooting.
Scrubbing method
Pour a recommended foam control solution into recovery tank if excessive foam
occurs. Otherwise the vacuum motor may be damaged if the foam is sucked into the
motor.
Change the pad holder or cleaning pad as necessary for better scrubbing performance.
Observe the battery indicator to ensure there is adequate power for machine to
operate.
Observe the solution tank indicator to ensure the solution does not run out. Please
clean the tank before relling.
Remove the key when leave the machine unattended.
Perform daily maintenance after scrubbing (see Maintenance).
Drive the machine slowly on inclines: press brake pedal to control the machine
and turn down speed switch when driving down. Do scrubbing when machine goes
upward instead of downward.
FOR SAFETY: Drive slowly when using machine on inclines or smooth surfaces.
Do not operate the machine in areas where the temperature exceeds 43
□
(110°F).
Scrubbing function cannot be used in areas where the temperature is lower than 0
□
(32°F).
Maximum rated slope is 7% during operation. Maximum rated inclination for
transporting the machine is 19.25%.

Water gauge tube of Solution Tank
Water gauge tube of solution tank can roughly indicate the real-time water level so as
to ensure proper operation of machine (water level of solution tank is suggested to be
kept above half the height of water gauge tube to guarantee water pressure and water
ow).

Operation
Recovery Tank Full Indicator
The recovery tank full indicator will shut off the power supply of vacuum motor
without disabling scrubbing functions when the tank is full. Please drain it timely to
guarantee scrubber's proper operation.
Battery Voltage Indicator
Battery voltage indicator displays battery capacity.
All the (10) indicator lamps will be on when the battery gets fully charged and then
and then go out in sequence form right to left with electricity consumption. When
battery electricity is exhaust, the left-most lamp (red) blinks.
In this case, the machine will stop scrubbing to warn the operator of current battery
voltage. When the indicator blinks, the machine will stop for charging.
NOTE: Frequent charging is not allowed, it is better to charge the batteries when
necessary; over charging will shorten battery service life. Do not charge the machine
until the left-most indicator lamp blinks; the left-most indicator lamp won't stop
blinking until the batteries are fully charged.
