Cleaning filters:
There is a handle in the area of the handle of the dirt container. This
should be moved a number of times (see Figure) every time before you
empty the dirt collector with the motor shut off. This sets a vibration
mechanism into motion so that the loose dirt which is sitting between
the lamellas falls directly into the dirt container. If there is stubborn dirt,
clean the filter with a brush or remove the filter and tap slightly.
Emptying the dirt collector:
Always take the dirt container in both hands (see Figure). You should
put one hand in the front handle area in the middle of the machine. Put
the other hand on the upper edge from behind.
Lift the container upwards from behind.
It is easiest to empty it into a rubbish bin over the side edge (see
Figure).
Switching off the motor:
A red short-circuit push button (illustration) is located on the console of
the traversing handle. To shut off the machine, this button has to be
pushed until the motor comes to a complete standstill.
After use:
When you have finished sweeping, shut off the machine. In order to
alleviate the load on the lateral brushes, the side brushes have to be
put up using the thumb washers every time after it is used (see Figure).
Attention: Check the oil level regularly and adhere to the oil-change
intervals!!! Follow the enclosed notices of the motor manufacturer for
this. Unscrew the motor in which the oil is to be changed on the frame
attachment (2 screws) and tip the motor until the oil has completely run
out. Follow the disposal notices. In the beginning, the motor uses
approx. 2 -3 cc of oil per operating hour.
Absolutely take note of the following:
The motor has fixed settings for optimum sweeping performance. Do
not, therefore, change the speed setting under any circumstances (set
speed: 5200 r.p.m.). If a reduction in the speed has been noticed, this
can be due to high belt tension or jamming rotary brushes. To remedy
this: cf. Chapter 5.
