CLEANING WIDTH WITH MAIN

CLEANING WIDTH WITH MAIN

• SIDE BRUSH: The side brush, Detail 1 Fig. 5, acts as a conveyor of the dust and rubbish and is only used to clean edges, corners and borders; after these operations it has to be lifted up to avoid raising dust and also because the cleaning e ect of the side brush is always less than that of the main broom.

• CENTRAL BRUSH: The main brush, Detail 2 Fig. 5 is the main part of the sweeper. This brush collects and loads dust and rubbish in the refuse container; it is available with di erent types of bristles of di erent harnesses according to the material to be collected; it can be adjusted in height when it is worn. IMPORTANT: Never collect string, wires, packaging straps, sticks etc., that are longer than 25 cm as they could wind around the side and main brushes.

• FILTERING SYSTEM: Thanks to the sweeper’s ltering e ect no dust is seen in the environment when it is working. This is achieved by means of lters Detail 3 Fig. 5; the lter system can be disengaged by pulling the knob Detail 4 Fig. 6 upwards. IMPORTANT: Disengage the fi lter when going over damp surfaces (if the machine is running) otherwise the paper fi lters will get damp causing them to deteriorate quickly.

• DUST FLAPS: See Details 4 of Fig. 5. These aps are all around the main brush and are extremely important to ensure that the sweeper works properly thanks to their suction e ect; check them often to make sure they are always in a good state of repair.

• REFUSE CONTAINER: The refuse collector or container Detail A Fig. 1, is made in strong and resistant plastic and holds all the material collected by the main brush and dust from the lters. IMPORTANT: Always empty the container after the motor has been turned off , wearing gloves and even a mask to protect your lungs from the dust which is always present in this operation.

• BATTERY CHARGER (only for SLG 700 ET): The battery charger (Detail 1 Fig. 5/B) is located on board the machine and can be accessed by lifting the central casing Detail 1 Fig. 4. The battery can be recharged by opening this casing and using the dedicated socket.

• FORWARDS LEVER (FOR ALL VERSIONS): By pulling the forwards lever, Detail 1 Fig. 6 towards the handle, an internal mechanism is activated which causes the moving of the sweepers at its own speed (forwards only). Traction will stop when you let go of this lever.

• SIDE BRUSH ENGAGEMENT LEVER (FOR ALL VERSIONS): The engagement lever Detail 6 Fig. 6 makes possible to lower the brush from the driving seat. Remember that the side brush must only be used for cleaning edges, pro les and corners and that it continues to rotate when the machine motor is working. IMPORTANT: Never touch the side brush with your hands and never pick up threaded materials.

• FILTER SHAKING KNOB (endothermic motor only): This knob is used to shake (clean) the lter, Detail 3 Fig. 5 : pull it and leave it suddenly 5 or 6 times to mechanically shake the lters; the dust on the lters will fall inside the container. IMPORTANT: This operation must be carried out before starting works and before emptying the container with the motor off or with suction disengaged.

• SUCTION OFF KNOB (FOR ALL VERSIONS): Detail 4 Fig. 6. When this knob is pulled outwards, suction is disengaged. Disengage the suction every time the lters need shaking or when passing over damp areas (with the motor on).

• FLAP-LIFT LEVER (FOR ALL VERSIONS): By pressing the ap-lift lever Part. 9 Fig. 6, the front seal lifts up for picking up a large objects. Suitable for collecting leaves, cigarette packets, etc.

SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION FOR BATTERY SWEEPERS

CHAPTER 11 – STARTING AND STOPPING

STARTING THE MACHINE, IT IS INDISPENSABLE TO HAVE READ THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS. SPECIFIC SEQUENCE FOR MODELS WITH ENDOTHERMIC ENGINES Consult the attached motor instructions booklet previous.

1. When the engine is cold, pull the spring-loaded STARTER lever outwards to the CLOSED position (CHOKE

2. Move the accelerator lever upwards from the SLOW position towards the FAST position;

3. Pull lightly on the starting handle until you feel some resistance, then pull forcefully. Gently push the

starting handle back into position. Do not allow the knob of the cord to return forcefully and strike the engine. Slowly move it back into position to prevent damage to the start-up.

4. Push the starter spring lever to the OPEN position (CHOKE OPEN) as soon as the engine has warmed up

enough to run smoothly

1. Once the engine is running return the accelerator lever to the low speed position “ SLOW “ and warm the

engine for a few minutes. Gradually move the accelerator lever towards the high speed position until the required speed is reached. IMPORTANT: If there is no need to keep the engine accelerating, slow it down gradually by moving the accelerator lever to the idle running speed: this will reduce fuel consumption and prolong the engine life.

• TURNING THE ENGINE OFF:

1. Move the accelerator lever to Minimum and keep the engine running for 30/40 seconds before turning it

2. Lower the lever fully down to the “STOP” position. The engine will stop.

3. Once it has stopped, lift the accelerator lever slightly.

IMPORTANT: Before starting the job, make sure that the surface to be swept is free of objects such as ropes, strips of plastic or metal, rags, stick, live electric cables or other similar articles. If such object are present, remove them to avoid damage to the machine or, in the case of live electric cables, risks of electrocution.

• Crossing over rails, small steps or guides which stick up from the oor can damage the aps on the central brush vacuum chamber; this being one of the most frequent causes of damage, if such object have to be crossed, lift the front part of the machine at the moment of crossing by pressing down on the handle to gain leverage.

• Avoid crossing over wet or particular damp surfaces in order to avoid damage to the paper lters. In cases of strict necessity, before crossing stop suction pulling the lever Detail 4 Fig. 6.

• If the area to be cleaned is very dirty owing to the quantity and quality of the dirt to be eliminated, it is advisable to pass over the rst time to get rid of the majority of the dirt, then pass over a second time with the refuse container and the suction lters clean. If the machine is used methodically and correctly, it is not necessary to carry out multiple passes.

• The side brush is used for removing dirt from edges, skirting, corners, etc. and therefore it should be kept in the raised position when it is not carrying out this function Detail 6 g. 6. If it is left on the ground, it will raise dust and in this case, the cleaning power of the central brush will be jeopardised.

• For the use in small spaces or for moving round close curves, it is advisable not to use the mechanical traction so that the machine is easier to manoeuvre Detail 1 g. 6.

• To keep the machine e cient and consequently obtain top performance, the vacuum lters must be shaken and cleaned periodically and the refuse container emptied frequently.

• For battery powered machines, keep a close check on the condition of the battery and recharge it as soon as the needle on the volt meter moves onto the red zone. NEVER LET THE BATTERIES RUN COMPLETELY FLAT AND ALWAYS LET THE BATTERY CHARGER RUN A FULL CYCLE WHEN RECHARGING THE BATTERIES.

• CLEANING THE DUST FILTER: Check the dust lter Detail 4 Fig. 8 every 40-70 working hours or as necessary. Open the cover Detail 1 Fig.1 to access the lter compartment. Cleaning the lter: with the bin Detail A Fig.1 in place, point the compressed air gun towards the top of the lter so that the dust falls into the bin. Make sure the lter is in good condition and replace it if necessary.

• DUST SEALS: Check the condition of the aps Detail 4 Fig. 9 every 40/70 hours. Damage or ine ciency of the aps jeopardises the performance of the machine in terms of cleaning quality IMPORTANT: To replace the side aps, make sure that their lower edge is 2-3 mm from the ground.

• SIDE BRUSH: Detail 1 Fig. 9. Keep raised from the ground when not in use to avoid raising dust unnecessarily. Keep raised from the ground when the machine is not in use and make sure it does not come into contact with other objects which could bend it making it unserviceable.38

• CENTRE BRUSH: To clean the centre brush. The following implements are necessary for carrying out this operation: heavy duty gloves, breathing mask, pliers, scissors Check the condition of the central brush every 50/80 running hours, or more frequently if the machine is used for particularly heavy duties. To gain visual access to the central brush, remove the refuse container (Detail A Fig. 1) and tip the machine as shown in Fig. 9, by pressing down the handle. If any ropes, wires or other refuse of this type has been inadvertently collected up, wear the heavy duty gloves and the protective mask to eliminate any refuse that has been wound in the brush. FOR ELECTRIC MACHINES, REMOVE THE BATTERIES BEFORE TILTING SO AS TO AVOID SPILLAGE OF THE SULPHURIC ACID SOLUTION. ADJUSTMENTS

• CENTRE BRUSH: To adjust the centre brush If the machine removes dirt and debris ine ciently or leaves dirt behind, it needs to be adjust. Lower the centre brush and proceed as follows:

1. Remove the protective case Detail 2 Fig.4

2. Loosen the bolt Detail 1 Fig.10 in the slot at the front

3. Tighten bolt Detail 2 Fig.10 until the three bolts Detail 1, 2 and 3 Fig.10 make contact

If the brush is too at on the ground, loosen bolt Detail 2 and tighten bolt Detail 1. N.B.: To ensure the centre brush is correctly adjusted, measure its “Track” as follows:

1. After making adjustments, start the machine up and, without moving either forwards or backwards,

leave it standing in the same place for at least 10 / 15 sec. with the centre brush lowered.

2. Turn o the motor, raise the centre brush and move the machine forwards manually until the mark left

by the rotation centre brush on the oor is visible, as shown in Fig. 11. N.B.: The width of the track must not be under 3 cm.

• FORWARD REGULATION: If a machine with mechanical forward drive has lost power, regulate the forward drive as follows: Loosen bolt Detail 1 Fig. 12, move the driving wheel Detail 3 closer to the hub of the driving pulley Detail 4 and unscrew the threaded adjusting screw Detail 2 Fig.12 as required. IMPORTANT: After regulation the wheel Detail 3 must be as close as possible to the driving pulley Detail 4 WITHOUT ACTUALLY TOUCHING IT.

• REFUSE CONTAINER: To carry out this operation, with the machine o , the following articles are necessary: heavy duty gloves, detergent. Every 50-60 working hours, or more often if the machine is used for particular heavy duties, the container must be washed to avoid the formation of un-hygienic conditions which could be dangerous because of the high concentrations of bacteria.39 REPLACEMENTS
