MAINTENANCE
WARNING – Before undertaking maintenance operations or adjustments
switch off the machine and unplug from the electricity supply.
IMPORTANT – All other servicing and repairs should only be performed by
a Truvox engineer or Authorised Service Agent.
IMPORTANT – Should the machine fail to operate please refer to the fault diagnosis section at 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 the 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 authorized 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.
