• Incorrect lifting techniques may result in personal injury. We advise that the manual handling regulations are followed. Carefully wrap the power cord and store in dry indoor location.
• DO NOT expose the machine to rain or moisture.
• When transporting the machine ensure that all components, tanks and removable parts are securely fastened, and that the power cord and plug are not trailing.
• Do not lift or transport the machine whilst containing liquid as this will add considerably to the weight.
• When transporting the machine the handle should be locked in the upright position.

STORAGE

• Always switch off the machine after use.
• Always empty, wipe down and dry the machine after use.
• Both the solution and recovery tanks should be emptied and flushed out with clean water to ensure the seals and pumps are free from any cleaning detergents.
• Wrap the power cord around the cable winder ensuring that the plug is not trailing on the floor.
• Store the machine in a dry indoor area only.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING – Before undertaking maintenance operations or adjustments switch off machine and unplug from the electricity supply.
IMPORTANT – All other servicing and repairs should only be performed by a Truvox engineer or Authorized Service Agent.
IMPORTANT – Should the machine fail to operate please refer to the fault diagnosis section in the back of this instruction manual. If the problem / remedy is not listed please contact Truvox Customer Service Department for rapid attention. The machine requires minimum maintenance apart from the following checks by the operator prior to use:

• Body of the machine – Clean with a damp cloth.
• Power cord – Regularly inspect sheath, plug and cord anchorage for damage or loose connection. Only replace the power cord with the type specified in these instructions.
• Brushes – For maximum life, wash the brushes regularly. Ensure machine is in Transport mode when not in use. Store additional brushes in a vertical position to avoid bending of bristles. Check for permanent bending of bristles in a particular direction. This may occur if the machine is operated for several days without removing the brushes, which is not recommended. If this occurs, reverse the brush so that the bent bristles are automatically straightened.
• Wiper Blade – After years of use the wiper blade may wear. If this occurs the water collection performance will decrease. It should be replaced by an authorised service agent.
• Solution feed filter – The filter prevents clogging of the spray nozzle and should be periodically cleaned.
• Nozzle maintenance – If the spray of the nozzle becomes blocked, slide the nozzle cover off and remove the nozzle. Wash the nozzle in clean water, ensuring that the nozzle is clear before refitting.
