MACHINE OPERATION

WARNING!
Pay careful attention when operating the machine at high speed: sudden steering could cause this three-wheel
machine to become unstable due to weight distribution.
Always reduce the speed before steering.
1. Avoid stopping for a long time with the machine in the same position and the brooms rotating: this could create unwanted
marks on the floor.
2. To collect light and bulky waste materials, lift the front skirt by pressing the pedal (5); take into consideration that the machine
vacuum capability is reduced when the front skirt is lifted.
CAUTION!
When operating on wet floors, it is essential to turn off the vacuum system by pressing the switch (79) to
prevent the dust filter from being damaged.
3. For machine proper operation, the dust filter must be as clean as possible. To clean it while sweeping, turn on the filter shaker
by pressing the switch (79) forward for a few seconds.
During this operation the vacuum fan is automatically shut off.
After cleaning the filter, press the switch (79) backward to restart the vacuum system; then start sweeping again.
While working, repeat the procedure every 10 minutes on average (depending on the dustiness of the area to be cleaned).
NOTE
When the dust filter is clogged and/or the hopper is full, the machine cannot collect dust and debris anymore.
4. The hopper (17) should be emptied after each working cycle and whenever it is full (see the procedure in the following
paragraph).
