BRUSH I NFO RMATION
For best results, use the correct brush type for the cleaning application.
NOTE: The amount and type of soilage play an important role in determining the type of brushes to use. Contact an authorized service representative for specific recommendations.
Polypropylene Brush -- Best overall general cleaning brush. The bristles fan out and dig into cracks to remove debris.
Polypropylene and Wire Brush -­Recommended for moving heavy debris. Best bristle mix for moving large quantities of sand and heavier debris. The bristles fan out similar to the polypropylene brush. The wire bristles provide the ability to move heavier material.
PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) Heavy Duty Brush -- Recommended for areas where there is
a heavy build up of debris. The stiffer / thicker bristles provide more aggressive digging action to remove compacted debris from along buildings, curbs, and in corners.
HOW THE MACHI NE WORKS
The two front brushes move debris to the center of the machine and the vacuum pulls the debris into the hopper. The airflow must be maintained through the machine to keep it functioning properly.
The air and debris swirl in a cyclonic rotation inside the hopper. The dust and debris drops to the bottom of the hopper and the air exits through vents at the rear of the machine. Screens located in the hopper prevent light debris (leaves, paper, etc...) from exiting the hopper and the cyclone assemblies located at the top of the hopper prevent dust particles from exiting the hopper.

TURNING OF F THE MACHINE
1. Stop the machine, turn off all sweeping functions, and place the drive lever into the neutral (middle) position.
2. Wait several seconds for the vacuum fan to completely stop rotating.
NOTE: If the engine is turned off before the vacuum fan stops rotating, the vacuum fan brake will engage and emit a very loud noise as it stops the fan.
3. Turn the ignition switch key counter clockwise to turn off the machine. Remain in the operator seat until the engine is off.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing machine, stop on level surface, place the drive lever in neutral, set parking brake, turn off machine, and remove key from ignition.
WHILE O PE RATING THE MACHI NE
Perform the Pre--Operation Procedures before each use (see MACHINE MAINTENANCE section of this manual).
Avoid bulky debris such as crates, boxes, tree branches, and heavy material. Avoid straps, twine, rope, etc., that could become entangled in the brushes.
Plan the sweeping in advance. Try to arrange long runs with minimum stopping and starting. Sweep as straight a path as possible. Overlap the brush paths. Use dust suppression in dusty conditions.
Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply when the machine is in motion. The machine is very responsive to the movement of the steering wheel. Avoid sudden turns, except in emergencies.
If poor sweeping performance is observed, stop cleaning and refer to MACHINE TROUBLESHOOTING section of this manual.
Drive the machine slowly on inclines. Use the brake pedal to control machine speed on descending inclines. Sweep with the machine up inclines rather than down inclines.
Never maneuver over curbs with the brushes and nozzle down. Always raise the brushes and nozzle prior to moving over curbs. Never drive over curbs at a high speed or at a 90_angle. Approach curbs at approximately a 45_ angle.
In rare circumstances one wheel may lose traction when moving over curbs due to uneven weight distribution. The machine automatically provides traction to prevent the vehicle from coming to a stop due to one wheel losing traction when the machine is in work mode 2.
FOR SAFETY: When using machine, go slow on inclines and slippery surfaces.
Maximum rated climb and descent for a full hopper is 9_/20%.

HYDRAULICS
Check the hydraulic fluid level daily. The hopper must be down and the machine at operating temperature before checking the hydraulic fluid level.
ATTENTION! Do not overfill the hydraulic fluid reservoir or operate the machine with a low level of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir. Damage to the machine hydraulic system may result.
Check the hydraulic pressure filter indicator after every 250 hours of operation. The machine must be running in order to get an accurate reading from this indicator.
Replace the auxiliary hydraulic pressure filter after every 2000 hours of operation or if the pressure filter indicator arrow is in the yellow/red area of the indicator with the engine running. The filter is useable when the indicator arrow is in the green area of the indicator.
Apply a light film of hydraulic fluid onto the filler cap gasket before reinstalling the cap onto the reservoir.
Replace the hydraulic return line filter after every 2000 hours of operation.

Replace the auxiliary and steering pump hydraulic strainers after every 2000 hours of operation.
Drain and refill the hydraulic fluid reservoir with new hydraulic fluid after every 2000 hours of operation.
HYDRAULIC HOSES
Check the hydraulic hoses after every 250 hours of operation for wear, damage, and leaks.
HYDRAULIC FLUID
Machines use two different type of hydraulic fluids depending on where the machine was built. Mixing the fluids is not recommended. Identify the machine build location by the data plate.
European data plate
European built machines use Turbo Diesel Engine Oil, 15W40 API CF4/ACEA2.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, use cardboard to locate leaking hydraulic fluid under pressure.
High pressure fluid escaping from a very small hole can almost be invisible, and can cause injury.
Contact appropriate personnel if a leak is discovered.
A TTENTION: Only use TENNANT supplied hydraulic hoses or equivalent rated hydraulic hoses.
USA data plate
USA built machines: There are two fluids available for different temperature ranges:
TennantTrue premium
hydraulic fluid (Extended Life)
Part number
1057710 above 7_ C(45_ F) 100 3.8 L
105771 1 above 7_ C(45_ F) 100 19 L
1057707 below 7_ C(45_ F) 32 3.8 L
1057708 below 7_ C(45_ F) 32 19 L
If using a locally--available hydraulic fluid, be sure the specifications match the Tennant hydraulic fluid specifications. Substitute fluids can cause premature failure of hydraulic components.
ATTENTION! Hydraulic components depend on system hydraulic fluid for internal lubrication. Malfunctions, accelerated wear, and damage will result if dirt or other contaminants enter the hydraulic system.

ENGINE OIL
Check the engine oil level daily. Change the oil and filter after every 250 hours of operation.
Fill the engine with oil until the oil is between the indicator marks on the dipstick. DO NOT fill past the top indicator mark. The engine oil capacity is 6 L (6.35 qt) with oil filter.
Check the condition of the radiator and radiator screen after every 250 hours of operation.
COOLING SYSTEM
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, avoid contact with hot engine coolant.
Check the coolant level in the reservoir daily. The coolant level must be between the two indicator marks when the engine is cold.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, do not remove cap from radiator when engine is hot. Allow engine to cool.
Check the coolant mixture every 750 hours of operation.
Flush the radiator and the cooling system after every 2000 hours of operation.
ENGINE BELT
Check the belt tension after every 750 hours of operation. Adjust tension as necessary . Proper belt tension is 7 mm to 9 mm (0.28 to 0.35 in).

FUEL FILTERS
Replace the fuel filter after every 750 hours of operation. To avoid extensive bleeding of the fuel system when replacing the fuel filter, fill the new filter with as much diesel fuel as possible before installing the filter.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, keep flames and sparks away from fuel system service area. Keep area well ventilated.
On machines below serial number 002135, replace the inline fuel filter after every 750 hours of operation.
FUEL LINES
Check the fuel lines every 50 hours of operation. If the clamp band is loose, apply oil to the screw of the band and securely tighten the band.
The rubber fuel lines can become worn--out whether the engine has been used much or not. Replace the fuel lines and clamp bands every two years.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, keep flames and sparks away from fuel system service area. Keep area well ventilated.
If the fuel lines and clamp bands are worn or damaged before two years time; replace or repair them at once. Bleed the fuel system after replacement of any fuel lines, see PRIMING THE FUEL SYSTEM. When the fuel lines are not installed, plug both ends with clean cloth or paper to prevent dirt from entering the lines. Dirt in the lines can cause fuel injection pump malfunction.
60
PRIMING THE F UEL SYSTEM
Typical diesel fuel systems require priming to remove pockets of air from the fuel lines and fuel components. This is usually required after running out of fuel, changing fuel filter elements or repairing a fuel system component. Air in the fuel prevents smooth engine operation.
This fuel system however is self-priming. The return line comes from the top of the injector that allows the air to escape through the return line.
VALVE CLEARANCES
Check and adjust the valve clearances after every 2000 hours of operation.

Go To..
Check the electrolyte level in non--sealed batteries after every 250 hours of operation. Never add acid to the batteries. Add distilled water only. Always keep the battery caps on, except when adding water or taking hydrometer readings.
Using a hydrometer, measure the specific gravity to determine the charge level and condition of the batteries. If one or more of the battery cells test lower than the other battery cells, the cell is damaged, shorted, or is near failure. Replace the battery if it is damaged.
MAINTENANCE
Clean the battery terminals after every 750 hours of operation. Apply a light coat of dielectric grease onto the terminals after they have been cleaned.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, avoid contact with battery acid.
If the machine is equipped with a maintenance free battery, clean and tighten the battery connections after the first 250 hours of operation and after every 750 hours after that. Do not remove the vent plugs from the battery or add water to the battery.
