Frequently Asked Questions - SC2000 NILFISK

What should I do if the machine does not start?
Check that the battery connector is plugged in, the batteries are charged (at least one fixed segment on the battery symbol), and the intelligent magnetic key is inserted. If the screen displays an alarm message, refer to the Troubleshooting chapter.
How to charge the batteries?
Place the machine in a ventilated area. Lift the recovery tank, disconnect the battery connector and connect it to the external charger (24 V) or plug the built-in charger into the mains. For WET batteries, check the electrolyte level. Do not smoke or use open flames.
How to clean the squeegee?
Turn off the machine and remove the key. Loosen the fixing knobs, remove the squeegee. Wash it with hot water, especially the compartments and the suction opening. Check the condition of the rubber blades and replace them if worn or damaged.
How to replace the rubber blades of the squeegee?
Clean the squeegee. For the rear blade, release the elastic band from the retainers and turn or replace the blade. For the front blade, unscrew the knobs and remove the retaining strip. Reassemble in reverse order and adjust the height with the lever.
What does the alarm message on the screen mean?
Alarms are coded (e.g., T3, G4, F2). Consult the Troubleshooting chapter. For example, T3 indicates that the pedal was pressed at start-up; release it. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center.
How to use the EcoFlex system?
The EcoFlex system (optional) temporarily increases washing power. Actuate the EcoFlex lever to activate higher solution flow, additional brush pressure, and increased detergent concentration. Activation lasts 60 seconds by default, then returns to initial settings.
How to drain the tanks?
After use, empty the recovery tank via the drain hose (26). For the solution tank, use the level hose (16). Rinse the tanks with clean water. Do not discharge detergents into drains without complying with local regulations.
How to move the machine manually?
Unlock the electromagnetic brake by moving lever (4) to the unlocked position. Push or tow the machine without exceeding 4 km/h. After moving, return the lever to the locked position to reactivate the brake.
What type of detergent to use?
Use only low-foaming, non-flammable liquid detergents suitable for scrubber dryers. Follow the dilution instructions on the label. Solution temperature must not exceed 40 °C. Wear gloves and protective clothing when handling.
How to maintain the brush?
Remove the brush after each use. Clean it with water and detergent. Check bristle wear: if excessively worn, replace the brush. Also check that no foreign objects (wires, debris) impede rotation.
