3 different ways.

The machine is fitted with a skimmer to in-

crease the life of the detergent fluid.

The skimmer transports oil floating on the 

detergent liquid to the oil catch container.

Note

Best results of the skimmer can be reached 

when the detergent liquid is cold.

Î

Let the detergent liquid cool down for at 

least one hour so that the oil can sepa-

rate from the water.

Am besten vor Arbeitsbeginn durch-

führen.

Switch on the skimmer - once a day for 

a few minutes depending on the oil ap-

plication.

Best time: In the morning prior to start of 

work, in cooled, calm condition.

Î

Also empty the oil collection basin. 

Note

Please dispose off the collected oil accord-

ing to the regulations.
