CHAPTER 4 - PREPARATION(UNPACKING)

The motorsweeper is delivered packed on top of its pallet and comes with the side brush/brushes disassembled. After removing the outer packaging, the machine must be removed from the pallet:

- Lifting devices: Raise the engine hood. Subsequently, use three slings equipped with hooks, of which the one hooked to the eyebolt is longer than 40cm compared to the other two. These slings must be chosen according to the weight indicated on the CE plate. Then lift the machine from the pallet with the lifting means suitable for the weight of the machine displayed on the CE plate. Attach them to the points A, B, C PIC 1. Lay the machine on the ground very slowly avoiding it being struck. Close the motor hood.

- Inclined surface or descent platforms (operation to be performed without persons in front of the machine and on a wide flat surface): Use an inclined surface, or three platforms, with a capacity suitable for the weight of the machine indicated on the CE plate and which is at least 1.5m long to avoid damaging the dust seals. Install it adhering to the narrow side of the pallet PIC 2. Remove the wheel locks, see § 9.6.

At the end of the unpacking operation and assemble the side brush/brushes, as illustrated in paragraph § 15.5.

IMPORTANT: All waste materials resulting from the unpacking operation must be disposed of by the user, following the specific disposal regulations currently in force.

CHECK THAT THE PROTECTIONS ARE PERFECTLY INTACT AND CORRECTLY ASSEMBLED; IN CASE OF DEFECTS OR MISSING ELEMENTS DO NOT PROCEED WITH START-UP AND IMMEDIATELY CONTACT THE DEALER OR THE PARENT COMPANY.

CHAPTER 5 - MACHINEDESCRIPTION

5.1. OPERATION AND MAIN PARTS

The machine has been designed for the cleaning and removal of dust and dirt generally present on hard, not excessively uneven fl at surfaces such as: cement, asphalt, stoneware, ceramic, wood, sheet metal, marble, rubber or plastic rugs in general, ashlar or smooth, synthetic or short pile fi bre carpets.

The motor sweeper is controlled by an operator on board the machine and, depending on the version, it can have manual rear discharge or assisted rear discharge (DSA, BIN UP models).

Removal of the coarsest dirt takes place through the action of the rotating brushes (Item 1 and 2 PIC 3) while finer dirt is removed through a suction system (Item 4 PIC 3), which also prevents the formation of dust due to the action of the brushes.

In particular, the machine is equipped with a side brush (Item 1 PIC 3; operator left side brush on request) that convey the dirt to the centre of the machine, and a cylindrical rotating central brush (Item 2 PIC 3), assembled transversely to the machine, which removes dirt by discharging it into the waste container located on the rear of the machine (Item 3 PIC 3). The finest debris, instead, is trapped in the filter system (Item 5 PIC 3) and dropped into the waste container thanks to the filter shaker (Item 6 PIC 3).

The machine operates through a battery motor.

Finally, in the suitably equipped versions, a hydraulic lifting system allows the operator to empty the waste container when it is full.

All the brushes present are adjustable and can be disconnected by the operator through dedicated controls.

5.2. SAFETY PROTECTIONS AND DEVICES

As shown in PIC 4, it is possible to see the safety protections and devices that must be intact and carefully fitted. The machine must not be used with damaged or missing protections or without safety devices that are not intact and functioning correctly. A description of the protections and safety devices is therefore provided below.

4	Engine hood
5	Bumper wheel
6	Side brush casing
7	Hydraulic hose casing
8	Central brush protection side
9	RT and LT side
10	Seat for waste container locking pin

5.3. SIDE BRUSH

The side brush is installed on the operator side, Item 1 PIC 5, acts as a conveyor of dust and debris, and is designed primarily for the cleaning of edges, corners and profi les. It is possible to disengage each brush through a dedicated command. It is available in different hardness and nature of the bristles, depending on the type of material to be collected or the flooring.

On request, the additional side brush installed on the opposite side is installed.

IMPORTANT: Do not touch the side brush with your hands during rotation and do not collect fi lamentary materials (wires, ropes, etc.)

5.4. CENTRALBRUSH

The central brush Item 2 PIC 5 is the main part of the machine and allows the loading of dust and debris into the waste container. It is available in different hardness and nature of the bristles, depending on the type of material to be collected or the flooring. It is adjustable in height when worn.

IMPORTANT: Do not collect cords, wires, packing straps, sticks, etc. longer than 25 cm because they could wrap around the central and side brush and then damage it.

5.5. DUST SEALS

The dustproof seals (Item 3 PIC 5), front (mobile, Item 4 PIC 5) and rear (Item 5 PIC 5) surround the central brush and are very important for correct functioning of the machine as they allow dust to be suctioned in; it is important to check its condition often.

5.6. SUCTION SYSTEM

The suction system (Item 4 PIC 3) allows collection of the finest debris and prevents the formation of dust that can form by the action of the brushes.

5.7. FILTERING SYSTEM

The filtering system is obtained by means of a pocket filter or a cartridge filter (Item 5 PIC 3) and traps the fi nest particles that are suctioned in by the suction system and prevents dust from spreading into the outside environment. A shaking system (Item 6 PIC 3) is used to release debris inside the waste container recleaning the fi Iters.

5.8. WASTE CONTAINER

The waste container (Item 3 PIC 3) is used to contain all the material collected by the central brush and the dust of the filters.

• In the manual emptying version, the container is equipped with a handle for extraction from the machine and inside there are three plastic drawers that facilitate emptying (PIC 6).
• In the assisted discharge version, it is operated by actuators that allow it to be emptied and is equipped with a safety lock system (Item 10 PIC 4, § 6.4.1) in the fully open position.

5.9. BATTERY

The battery (Item 1 PIC 8) powers the propulsion, the hydraulic system for lifting of the waste container and all the remaining services of the motorsweeper. It can be recharged using the dedicated plug (Item 2 PIC 8). The artery can be accessed by lifting the engine hood (Item 4 PIC 8).

CHAPTER 8 - COMMISSIONING

BEFORE PROCEEDING, IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE READ ALL THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS.

8.1. CHECKS BEFORE FIRST START-UP

The motorsweeper is supplied ready for the first start-up by the user. Adjustments, inspections and functional tests have already been performed by the Manufacturer.

DSA, BIN-UP VERSIONS:

Carefully check the hydraulic oil level in the dedicated tank and, if necessary, top it up to the level shown (PIC 14) with ISO 46 L-HV oil (maximum quantity: 2,5 L).

There is no need for specific training of the operator with regard to the first start-up of the motorsweeper, except for the information contained in this manual.

8.3. FIRST START-UP

The first start-up of the motorsweeper is carried out in the same manner as described in paragraph § 9.3.

CHAPTER 9 - USING THE MACHINE

BEFORE PROCEEDING, IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE READ ALL THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS.

9.1. CORRECT USE AND TIPS

NEVER TOUCH THE SIDE BRUSH WITH YOUR HANDS DURING ROTATION

CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO PERSONS LESS THAN 2 METERS FROM THE MOTORSWEEPER DURING THE WASTE CONTAINER EMPTYING OPERATIONS. ALSO CHECK THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE SPACE TO AVOID SHOCKS THAT COULD DAMAGE THE MOTORSWEEPER AND COMPROMISE ITS OPERATION (PARAGRAPH 11.3.2).

Be very careful when passing over rails or gate guides etc. These are the source of the greatest damage to the dust seals. When it is necessary to pass over them, do so very slowly

Disconnect the fi liter system when moving the machine over wet or very wet surfaces to avoid dampening and therefore deteriorating the fi liter. Avoid passing over puddles.

If the surface to be cleaned is very dirty due to the quantity or quality of the material or dust to be collected, it is advisable to carry out a fi rst "rough" sweep without paying too much attention to the result obtained. After this, with the waste container empty and the fi liters well shaken, repeat the steps; this will obtain the desired effect.

The side brush must only be used for cleaning edges, profi les, corners, etc., it must be raised (disconnected) immediately afterwards in order to avoid raising unnecessary dust, and because the result obtained with the side brush inserted is always lower than that of the central brush only.

For a good result, empty the container often and keep the fi Iters clean by vibrating them by means of the fi Iter shaker.

IMPORTANT: Before starting the work, check if on the surface there are any cords, plastic or metal wires or long rags, sticks, power wires etc.; these are dangerous and could damage the dust seals and brushes. They must therefore be removed before starting work with the machine.

IMPORTANT: For safety reasons, the machine switches off automatically if the operator gets up from the driving position. It can only be started when seated in the driver's seat.

There is no need for special training of the operator with regard to the use of the motorsweeper, except for the information contained in this manual.

9.3. OPERATIONAL START-UP

To start the machine:

1. Turn the starter key (Item 1 PIC 11) into the "ON" position, to the first click (PIC 15).

9.4. TRAVEL

To activate travel :

1. Disengage the parking brake (Item 4 PIC 11, § 9.6).
