MANUAL PURPOSE AND CONTENTS

The purpose of this Manual is to provide the operator with all necessary information to use the machine properly, in a safe and autonomous way. It contains information about technical data, safety, operation, storage, maintenance, spare parts and disposal. Before performing any procedure on the machine, the operators and qualified technicians must read this Manual carefully. Contact Nilfisk in case of doubts concerning the interpretation of the instructions and for any further information.

TARGET

This Manual is intended for operators and technicians qualified to perform the machine maintenance.

The operators must not perform procedures reserved for qualified technicians. Nilfisk will not be responsible for damages coming from failure to follow these instructions.

NILFISK MV 4500 - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - 1

DANGER!

  • Be of full age
  • Have a driving license
  • Be in normal psycho-physical conditions
  • Not be under the effect of substances that alters the nervous system (alcohol, psycpharmaceuticals, drugs, etc.)

This machine must be used by properly trained and authorised personnel only. Moreover, the operator must:
- Remove the ignition key before performing any maintenance/repair procedure.
- This machine must be used by properly trained and authorised personnel only. Children or disabled people cannot use this machine.
- Do not wear jewels when working near moving parts.
- Do not work under the lifted machine without supporting it with safety stands.
- Do not operate the machine near toxic, dangerous, flammable and/or explosive powders, liquids or vapours.
- Be careful, fuel is highly flammable.
- Do not smoke or bring naked flames in the area where the machine is refuelled or where the fuel is stored.
- Refuel outdoors or in a well-ventilated area, with the engine off.
- Do not fill the fuel tank to the top, but leave at least 4 cm from the filler neck to allow the fuel to expand.
- After refuelling, check that the filler cap is tightly closed.
- If any fuel is spilled while refuelling, clean up the affected area and allow the vapours to dissipate before starting the engine.
- Avoid contact with skin and do not breathe in fuel vapours. Keep out of reach of children.
Before performing any maintenance/repair procedure remove the ignition key, engage the parking brake and disconnect the battery.

NILFISK MV 4500 - DANGER! - 1

DANGER!

  • When working under open hoods/lids, make sure that they cannot be closed by accident.
  • When performing maintenance procedures with the lifted cargo box/hopper/water tank, fix it with the support rod.
  • During machine transportation, the fuel tank must not be full.
  • Diesel engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an extremely poisonous, colourless, and odourless gas. Do not inhale. Do not keep the engine running in a closed area.
  • Do not lay any object on the engine.
  • Before working on the engine turn it off. To prevent the engine from starting accidentally, disconnect the battery negative terminal.
    See also the SAFETY RULES in the Diesel Engine Manual, which is to be considered an integral part of this Manual.

NILFISK MV 4500 - DANGER! - 1

WARNING!

  • To drive on public roads, the machine must follow local licensing requirements.
  • Do not use the machine for purposes different from the ones for which it has been designed.
  • While using this machine, take care not to cause damage to people and property.
  • Do not leave the machine unattended with the parking brake disengaged.
  • Do not bump into shelves or scaffoldings, particularly where there is a risk of falling objects.
  • Pay careful attention when lifting and emptying the cargo box/hopper.
    Empty the cargo box/hopper on a solid and level ground.
  • Adjust the operation speed to suit the ground conditions.
  • Carefully read all the instructions before performing any maintenance/repair procedure.
    Take all necessary precautions to prevent hair, jewels and loose clothes from being caught by the machine moving parts.
  • Protect body parts (eyes, hair, hands, etc.) properly, when performing cleaning procedures using compressed air or water gun.
  • Avoid contact with battery acid, do not touch hot parts.
  • Do not allow the brooms to operate while the machine is stationary to avoid damaging the ground.
    In case of fire, use a powder fire extinguisher, not a water one.
  • Do not wash the machine with corrosive substances.
  • Do not use the machine in particularly dusty areas.
  • Do not tamper with the machine safety guards and follow the ordinary maintenance instructions scrupulously.
  • Do not remove or modify the plates affixed to the machine.
    In case of machine malfunctions, ensure that these are not due to lack of maintenance. Otherwise, request assistance from the authorised personnel or from an authorised Service Center.
    In case of part replacement, order ORIGINAL spare parts from an authorised Dealer or Retailer.
    To ensure the proper and safe operation of the machine, have the scheduled maintenance, detailed in the relevant chapter of this Manual, performed by the authorised personnel or an authorised Service Center.
  • The machine must be disposed of properly, because of the presence of toxic-harmful materials (oils, batteries, plastics, etc.), which are subject to standards that require disposal in special centres (see Scrapping chapter).
  • If the machine is used according to the instructions, the vibrations are not dangerous. Vibration level at the operator's body is 0.31 m/s^2 (ISO 2631-1) at maximum working speed (1,850 rpm).
  • While the engine is running the silencer heats up. Do not touch the silencer to avoid serious scalding or fire.
  • Do not run the engine if the oil level is low, to avoid damaging it seriously. Check the oil level with the engine off and the machine on a level surface.
  • Do not run the engine if the air filter is not installed, to avoid damaging it.
  • The engine coolant lines are under pressure. Perform any check when the engine is off and after having allowed it to cool down. Even when the engine is cool, pay careful attention when opening the expansion tank.
  • The engine is equipped with a fan; do not stand near the engine when it is hot, because the fan can start operating even if the machine is off.

NILFISK MV 4500 - WARNING! - 1

WARNING!

  • All diesel engine servicing procedures should be performed by an authorised Dealer.
  • Only use original spare parts or parts of matching quality for the diesel engine. Using spare parts of lower quality can seriously damage the engine.
    See also the SAFETY RULES in the Diesel Engine Manual, which is to be considered an integral part of this Manual.
