Nilfisk sdm 43-900 Manuel D’Utilisation

Explicit reference is made to the risks of using highly 

flammable, combustible, toxic, health-hazardous, 

corrosive or irritant substances. 

Delivery, instruction on safety procedures, handling 

and maintenance and initial operation are generally 

carried out by our authorized specialist.

If this is not the case, the operator is responsible for 

instructing machine users.

Please remember that the voltage in the building being 

cleaned must concur with that given on the machineʼs 

type plate.

The motor head and bar are supplied separately packed.

First release the hexagon socket srews in the shaft 

adjustment unit (17).

Then feed the bar (7) gently as far as it will go into the 

shaft adjustment unit (17).

Align the handle bar (1) parallel with the wheels (9), so 

that the open side of the housing of the top shaft 

element (3) is facing to the rear.

Then tighten the hexagon socket screws again.

Wind the electric cable (18) around the handle bar (a) 

and cable hook (8).

Grasp the handle bar (1) with both hands and tip the 

machine until it is resting on both wheels (A). 

Then wheel the machine to its place of work and plug 

the electric cable into the power supply.

Lay the accessories (11), i.e. brush or drive plate with 

pad, on the floor.

Now tip the machine back onto the wheels and push 

it over the brush (or drive plate) until the drive star 

and brush flange are vertically aligned. Lower the 

machine onto the brush (B).

Then squeeze the shaft adjustment lever (5) and lower 

the bar (7) into its working position. Both arms 

should be extended loosely downwards (C).

Align the machine horizontally above the working 

element (brush or drive plate), press the switch lock 

(4) and press the brush motor switch (2) briefly.

The accessory automatically engages.

Press the brush motor swith (2) (to the right or left). The 

motor starts.

If you raise the bar (7) slightly, the machine moves to 

the right (D).

If you lower the bar, the machine moves to the left (D).

If you keep the bar in its central position, the machine 

works on the spot.

Squeeze the shaft adjustment handle (5) and shift the 

bar (7) into its vertical position.

Then tip the machine onto its wheels (9) and press the 

brush motor switch (2) briefly. The accessory (11) 

disengages.

Remove the plug from the power socket and wind the 

electric cable (18) around the handle bar (1) and 

cable hook (8).

For thorough cleaning, the single-disc machine is 

supplied with the following accessories:

Liquid tank (13)

Scrubbing brsuh (11) or drive plate with black pad (19).

Fasten the tank to the mounting (14).

Slide the outlet hose (12) onto the water connector (16).

Fill the tank (13). Then fit the brush or drive plate with 

pad.

Control the flow of liquid with the tank  lever (15) by 

pulling the lever (15) upwards.

Vacuum the dirty wash solution a section at a time with 

a water extractor.

For shampooing, the machine is equipped with the 

following accessories:

- Liquid tank; 0.3 Perlon shampooing brush or Sapur 

pad for textile floorcoverings.

The working procedure is in principle the same as for 

thorough cleaning.

Start the machine with the shampooing brush dry.

Meter a small amount of liquid until the bristles are 

saturated with foam.

Run the machine with the rotating brush from right to 

left or viceversa.    Immediately after this, run the 

machine in the same way in the reverse direction, 

but with an overlap of about a quarter of the strip 

already treated (E.)

Only then run the machine in a spiral pattern over the 

shampooed strips.    In doing so, work both strips at 

the same time (F.)

During shampooing it is highly advisable to 

immediately remove the dirt-laden foam a section at 

a time with a water extractor.

Fit the holder for the spray can to the bar (7) with the 

holder pointing upwards and, when viewed from the 

operating side, to the left (G).

Hook the spray canʼs tongue onto the holder, pivoting 

the holder back until the ball catch engages. 

Then slide the spring clip over the shaft adjustment unit 

(7).

Attach the box on the right or left as desired (H).

Point the universal-jointed hose in the desired direction.
