A. GENERALITIES
1. DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY (EXTRACT)
The manufacturer MATHIEU S.A. declares that the new equipment designated below:
Azura MC210, road cleaning equipment, complies with the essential safety and health requirements of the following
European directives.
- Directive 2006/42/EC: machines.
- Directive 2000/14/EC: environmental noise levels.
- NF EN 13019+A1 (2008): Road cleaning machines - Safety requirements.

2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The use of this vehicle requires training or a license (refer to the legislation in force in your country).
Drivers must know the Highway Code in force.
This vehicle must be used exclusively for the purpose for which it was designed.
Do not slide under the vehicle when the key is still in the ignition.
No not approach any part of the moving brush section or sweeping system.
Only tip the tank if the vehicle is on firm, flat ground.
Set up the safety prop before any work under the tank when it is raised.
Do not use the vehicle in a poorly ventilated area to void the risk of asphyxiation from exhaust gases.
Use the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that is adapted to your work.
WARNING:
If a rear axle component fails the parking brake is no longer effective, in this case the driver must not stop the
engine so that the foot brake continues to hold.
Page 11
User manual -AZURA – AZURA Flex

3. SCR SYSTEM (EURO 6 MODEL ONLY)
The EURO 6 engine uses the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) pollution control system, which consists of treating the
exhaust gas with an "AdBlue ®" additive, (AUS 32, urea solution DIN 70070) for converting the nitrogen oxide (NOx) into
nitrogen and water.
WARNING:
During the evaporation process, the AdBlue ® crystallises and the crystals that are created are corrosive.
It is therefore important to avoid accidental diffusion of AdBlue ® over the rest of the vehicle and on the road. As long as
the solution is liquid it is easy to remove.
Request the safety data sheet from your AdBlue ® supplier.
INFORMATION:
AdBlue ® starts to crystallise at –11°.
It is therefore necessary to wait at least 6 minutes after switching off the ignition before stopping the general circuit
breaker (depending on the model) to allow the AdBlue ® pipes to empty and prevent them freezing.

7. VEHICLE OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The vehicle sweeps and collects the waste at the suction nozzle inlet by using the sweeping system.
The waste humidification process waste uses sprinklers to avoid creating dust clouds and prematurely wearing the
suction tube and turbine.
The turbine creates a vacuum in the tank, allowing the dirt to be suctioned level with the nozzle (height-adjustable).
The waste is directed into the tank through the suction tube.
Sprinklers installed on the nozzle continue the dampening process and lubricate the tube.
When the waste arrives in the tank, it is directed downwards and evenly distributed.
Air is evacuated above the vehicle through the blow pipe.
