UNPACKING AND SETUP OF THE MACHINE

1- Remove the packing and make sure of the machine integrity.

2- Before using the machine proceed in this way:

2.1 Take from the Waste Hopper Table B-1
the Side Broom – Table A-20

2.2 Unscrew the screw and washers Table A-24 from the Gearmotor Table A-15.
Insert the broom on the gearmotor axle having the key slot matching the key,

leaving the spacer between the broom and the gearmotor, then fix it with the
screw and washers

2.3 Remove the Cover Table A- 1 unscrewing the four screws that keep it fixed on the

machine frame.

2.4 Make sure that the input voltage of the Battery-charger corresponds to the input

voltage available.

The machine leaves the factory set for an input voltage of 120 VAC

For input voltages of 210/240 VAC :
Follow connections as per Table B – 5

2.5 Connect the battery terminals paying attention to the correspondence of polarities.

2.6 Provide for the charge of the battery (See the following directions PAGE 4 –

Battery-charger).

MACHINE SETUP

State of rest: the machine can be placed whether with the handle folded down or with the

handle in vertical position.

MACHINE STARTING UP AND OPERATION

Main broom

Operating the switch (Figure 1-2) the main broom Table C- 14 starts to work reaching
immediately the running speed. The lighting of a green LED signals the regular operation.

With the main broom working it is possible to operate:

Side broom

Operating the switch (Figure 1-3) the side broom will start working.
To adjust the side broom operate on the knob (Table A- 22).

Vacuum
Operating the switch (Figure 1-4) the centrifugal electric motor fan starts to work.

Electric filter-shaker

With the battery connected, the electric filter-shaker is always active.

- The operation takes place pressing the push-button (Figure 1- 1).

- With the machine in movement, before operating the filter-shaker, it is suggested to

switch-off the vacuum, switch (Figure 1- 4).

- With the machine still and the hopper out, switch-off the suction and the main broom

switch (Figure 1 - 2) , before operating the filter-shaker.

Battery

- The “discharged battery” limit is signalled by the lighting of a red Led and afterwards

by the motors switching off.

- To complete the work switch-off for a while the switch (Figure 1- 2).

- To make use of a further residual of charge, switch-off the side broom switch

(Figure 1- 3).

CAUTION: In case of prolonged inactivity of the machine disconnect the battery
terminals.

Battery charger

To charge the battery:

- Make sure that the transformer connections have been set for the suitable voltage

from 90 up to 240 volts Figure 3 – Page 9.

- Use the cable already connected to the machine (Table A- 11), insert the plug in any

suitable AC. outlet.

- The time required for the complete recharge varies from 8 to 15 hours, depending on the

power grid condition.

- During the charge all functions are automatically switched-off.

CAUTION: during the battery charging avoid to have contacts with parts of the circuit
concerned by the network voltage.

ORDINARY MAINTENANCE

Maintenance and replacement of the main broom:

a- Cleaning:
Check periodically, according to the use of the machine, the wear conditions of the
main broom Table C-14. To carry out this operation, the following tools are needed:

- Heavy-duty gloves.

- Breathing mask.

- Scissors

- Pliers
Switch off the machine. In order to see the main broom:

- Remove the waste container (Table B-1) and the battery (Table A- 9).

- Tilt the machine.

- Clean away from the broom any filaments or other.

b- Adjustment:
To adjust the distance of the main broom to the ground, operate the cam Table A-26

from position 1 to position 5.

c- Replacement:

If the broom wear is such to require it, replace the broom :

Maintenance and replacement of the electronic circuit board

:

In case of non-operation of some electrical components, check out the integrity of the
fuses:

Figure 2 - F2

In case of a non good operation of the function of battery charging, check out the integrity
of the fuses:

Figure 2 - F1
Figure 3 - FUN
Figure 3 - FUR

If necessary, replace them with integral ones.

If this operation does not bring to the drawback elimination, turn to an authorized
workshop.
