General Safety Instructions

WARNING! Read all safety information, instructions, illustrations and technical data provided with this power tool. Failure to observe the following instructions may cause electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries. Keep all safety information and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” used in this safety information refers to mains-operated power tools (with power cable) and to battery-powered power tools (without power cable).

• This device may be used by children aged 8 years and over, as well as by persons with impaired physical, sensory or mental capacities or a lack of experience and/or knowledge if they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the device and have understood the dangers it poses. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
• Only start the device when it is upright!
• Never bring hands and feet near the rotating brush tool.
• Do not run the rotating brushes over electrical wires. Remove them from the work area.
• Only pick up smaller and softer objects. Sharp-edged objects (e.g. broken glass), coarser stones (e.g. pebbles) and hot objects (e.g. embers) can damage the device.
• Only lift or carry the device with the motor switched off.
• Only operate the wet function when the fresh water tank is full. Operation without liquid leads to increased wear and damages the pump.
• Fill the fresh water tank only with water and original Wagner cleaning agent. Liquids containing acids and solvents, coating materials such as varnishes, oils and paints as well as essential oils and similar substances can damage the device.
• Fill the fresh water tank with max. 700 ml.
• Never leave the device unattended while it is in operation.
• Always park the device in the parking tray to avoid soiling.
• Do not use the device if it has been dropped, visibly damaged or is leaking.

• Remove the battery before cleaning or servicing the device.

Safety instructions for the charger and battery

Only use the tool with BOSCH POWER FOR ALL compatible PBA 18V batteries with at least 2.5 Ah and suitable chargers. The battery voltage must match the battery charging voltage of the charger. Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries. Otherwise there is a risk of fire and explosion.

• Only use the charger indoors and keep it away from moisture. Water penetrating into a power tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
• Keep the charger clean. There is a risk of electric shock due to contamination.
• Before every use, check the charger, cable and plug. Do not use the charger if it is damaged. Do not open the charger yourself and only have it repaired by qualified specialist personnel using original spare parts. Damaged chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not operate the charger on easily combustible surfaces (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in combustible environments. There is a risk of fire due to the heating of the charger during charging.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• The battery is delivered partially charged. To ensure full battery performance, fully charge the battery in the charger before first use.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
• Only use the battery in the manufacturer’s products. This is the only way to protect the battery from dangerous overloading.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not open the battery. There is a risk of a short circuit.
• Vapours may also escape if the battery is damaged or used improperly. Take in fresh air and consult a doctor if you have any symptoms. The vapours may irritate the respiratory tract.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
• If the battery is defective, liquid may leak out and wet adjacent objects. Check affected parts. Clean them or replace them if necessary.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• The battery can be damaged by sharp objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by external force. An internal short circuit may occur and the battery may burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
• Protect the battery from heat, e.g. also from permanent sunlight, fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and short circuit.
• Operate and store the battery only at an ambient temperature between -20°C and + 50°C. Do not leave the battery in the car in summer, for example. At temperatures < 0°C, performance may be restricted depending on the unit.
• Charge the battery only at ambient temperatures between 0°C and +35°C. Charging outside the temperature range can damage the battery or increase the risk of fire.
• Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. The batteries are suitable for road-transport by the user without further restrictions. When shipping by third parties (e.g.: by air transport or forwarding agency), special requirements on packaging and labelling must be observed. For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is required. Dispatch battery packs only when the housing is undamaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the battery in such a manner that it cannot move around in the packaging. Please also observe the possibility of more detailed national regulations.

• Flashing orange = Battery must be charged

Start-up

1. Unlock the dirt tank (8, pos. ) and remove the dirt tank (9).
2. Insert the cleaning brushes (11) so that the groove on the brush is correctly seated in the housing. Close the lock (10) (must audibly click into place).
3. Carefully thread the cable into the handle grip (15) (do not pinch) and snap the handle into the Levaro.The handle grip cannot be removed after assembly. Do not try to dismantle it by force.
4. Remove the fresh water tank (7) and fill it with a mixture of clear water and approx. 10% cleaning agent (increase the concentration in case of heavy soiling).
5. Reinsert the fresh water tank (7).
6. Insert the charged battery (6).
7. Place the Levaro on the dirt tank (9) and lock it inplace (8, pos. ). 

Application/Tips

• Press and hold the Unlock ON/OFF switch (3) and then press and hold the ON/OFF switch (1) to start the brushes. The unlock (3) can be released again as long as the ON/OFF switch is pressed.
• Work in straight lines as much as possible.
• The surface to be cleaned should not be too wet. The device is not suitable for drying surfaces.
• Keep the On/Off switch pressed, e.g. to collect dust and leaves when driving over them.
• In addition, press and hold the wet function switch (2) to spray cleaning liquid to loosen dirt (for best results, use the wet function selectively and sparingly).
• Move the device completely over soiled areas (forwards and backwards).
• When interrupting work or during transport, park the Levaro in the parking tray (12) to avoid soiling and to protect the brushes. Stand with one foot on the parking tray to lift the Levaro out again.
• For best results, it is advisable to match brushes and cleaning agents to the substrate and the type of application:

• Loosen contamination by running the brushes and cleaning solution over it several times.
• Rinse off loosened dirt with water.
• Replace the dirt tank.
• Remove the remaining dirt by driving over it several times.

Emptying the dirt tank
Check and empty the dirt tank regularly (e.g. after approx. 15 m², after a battery charge (2.5 Ah) or when refilling the cleaning fluid). If the tank overflows, the floor may be contaminated.

• Unlocking the dirt tank.
• Lift the Levaro and remove it from the dirt tank.
• Empty the dirt tank and rinse it out if necessary.

Cleaning and Maintenance

• Unlocking the dirt tank.
• Lift the Levaro and remove it from the dirt tank.
• Empty and clean the dirt tank.
• Rinse out the underside of the Levaro with a garden hose.
• Check brushes and comb regularly and clean if necessary. If the cleaning performance decreases significantly, replace the brushes.
• Gently squeeze the spray nozzle on the left and right and pull it out of the device. Clean the spray nozzle in warm water or replace if necessary.

Storage

Place the device in the parking tray and store it in a dry, frost-free place out of direct sunlight.
