3 Application/operation
3.1 Safety When the washing robot is in operation all shieldings must be
in place. During automatic washing no persons must stay in the
washing field of the robot (hatching). See illustration below.
Only persons who have been specially instructed must stay in the
pig house section where the robot is working.

3.1.1 Warning sign on the
door
3.1.2 Access to robot during
operation
3.1.3 Training of staff Employees who are to operate the robot will beyond the written in-
The accompanying warning sign must be placed on the door leading to the pig house section where the automatic washing is taking
place. The sign must be visible to any person who may have access
to the pig house section.
If the sign is lost or if there is more than one access, a new sign can
be ordered from Nilfisk-ALTO. Order no. 107307061.
The robot must be placed so that the operator has always got access to the display and the control knobs without having to pass
the robot during the automatic washing, meaning that the end of
the robot where the display is placed must turn to the access side
during operation.
structions always receive a verbal instruction from a staff member of
Nilfisk-ALTO in connection with the delivery and starting up of a new
robot.
4 Service
4.1 Safety Always disconnect the electrical plug from the socket prior to
service, maintenance, repair or other works on the washing robot.
Repairs to the control pen of stainless steel must be carried out by
an electrician as it contains automatic fuses, contactor, emergency
stop module and power supplies.
The control pen of plastic contains the control system and must only
be serviced by a Nilfisk-ALTO service technician.
When working underneath the robot you should be very careful as it
weighs 285 kg.

5 Description of plant
5.1 Operating principle The MULTICLEANER is used for the cleaning of pig houses. It takes
over most of the heavy, trivial and time consuming manual cleaning
job. Using the robot the manual high pressure washing is reduced
by up to 80%. The remaining 20% high pressure washing is quickly
done because of the long soaking time of the impurities.
The control of the robot is automatic when the user has made a few
choices on the display.
The washing sequency of the MULTICLEANER is programmed by
the user before each cleaning. The user may adapt the washing
sequency to achieve an optimum cleaning of the actual pig house
section.
Distance and course of the MULTICLEANER is controlled by two
ultrasonic sensors, which "feel" against the inventory in the aisle.
The washing arm consists of a vertical tower and a horizontal arm.
The tower is mounted on a turntable on the chassis, which can rotate 90 degrees sideways proportional to the direction of movement.
At the top of the tower the horizontal arm is mounted in a swivel.
The tower and the arm can be locked in fixed positions in proportion
to each other.
At the end of the horizontal arm the high pressure nozzle is mounted on a spindle stretching through the horizontal arm. The nozzle
can rotate 360 degrees. The outermost part of the horizontal arm
can rotate around its own spindle, and the angle of the water jet can
be turned +/- 90 degrees in proportion to vertical position.
The high pressure nozzle turns like a fan forwards and backwards
within a limited angle. The speed of the nozzle is variable, thus minimising the water consumption.
In order that the nozzle is washing at an optimum, it is important
that the tower and the arm are adjusted so that the nozzle head is
placed in the middle of the aisle and so close to the inventory and
the floor as possible.
It is the responsibility of the user that the arm is adjusted so that it
will not bump into the inventory of the pig house.
Stop-lists on front and rear bumper signal to the control unit in case
of bumping assuming that the MULTICLEANER has reached the
opposite end of the aisle, and the direction of movement will be
changed and the next step of the washing sequence will be started.
5.2 Field of application The MULTICLEANER is mainly intended for use in pig fattening
houses, climate-controlled livestock buildings and farrowing houses.
To optimise the washing result and minimise the water consumption,
it will be an advantage to use a dustbinding or a soaking system to
soak the pig house before using the MULTICLEANER. However, this
is not required.
