GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Specifi c warnings and cautions to inform about potential damages to people and machine are shown below.
DANGER!
This machine must be used by properly trained and authorised personnel only.
–
Moreover, the operator must:
–
Be of full age
•
Have a driving license
•
Be in normal psycho-physical conditions
•
Not be under the effect of substances that alters the nervous system (alcohol, psycopharmaceuticals,
•
drugs, etc.)
Before performing any maintenance/repair procedure remove the ignition key, engage the parking brake
–
and disconnect the battery.
Do not wear jewels when working near electrical components.
–
Do not work under the lifted machine without supporting it with safety stands.
–
When working under open hoods/lids, make sure that they cannot be closed by accident.
–
When performing maintenance procedures with the lifted hopper, apply the relevant support rods.
–
Do not operate the machine near toxic, dangerous, fl ammable and/or explosive powders, liquids or vapors.
–
Be careful, fuel is highly fl ammable.
–
Do not smoke or bring naked fl ames in the area where the machine is refuelled or where the fuel is stored.
–
Refuel outdoors or in a well-ventilated area, with the engine off.
–
Do not fi ll the fuel tank to the top, but leave at least 4 cm from the fi ller neck to allow the fuel to expand.
–
After refuelling, check that the fi ller cap is tightly closed.
–
If any fuel is spilled while refuelling, clean up the affected area and allow the vapors to dissipate before
–
starting the engine.
Avoid contact with skin and do not breathe in fuel vapors. Keep out of reach of children.
–
Do not tilt the engine too much to avoid fuel spillage.
–
During machine transportation, the fuel tank must not be full.
–
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) can cause brain damage or death.
The internal combustion engine of this machine can emit carbon monoxide.
Do not inhale exhaust gas fumes.
Only use indoors when adequate ventilation is provided, and when an assistant has been instructed to look
after you.
Do not lay any object on the engine.
–
Before working on the engine turn it off. To prevent the engine from starting accidentally, disconnect the
–
battery negative terminal.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING!
Carefully read all the instructions before performing any maintenance/repair procedure.
–
Take all necessary precautions to prevent hair, jewels and loose clothes from being caught by the machine
–
moving parts.
Protect body parts (eyes, hair, hands, etc.) properly, when performing cleaning procedures using
–
compressed air or water gun.
Avoid contact with battery acid, do not touch hot parts.
–
Do not leave the machine unattended with the ignition key inserted and the parking brake deactivated.
–
Do not remove or modify the plates affi xed to the machine.
–
To drive on public roads, the machine must follow local licensing requirements.
–
The machine has been designed to be used as a sweeper, do not use it for different purposes.
–
In case of part replacement, order ORIGINAL spare parts from an authorised Dealer or Retailer.
–
The machine must be disposed of properly, because of the presence of toxic-harmful materials (batteries,
–
etc.), which are subject to standards that require disposal in special centres (see the Scrapping chapter).
While the engine is running the silencer heats up. Do not touch the silencer to avoid serious scalding or
–
fi re.
Do not run the engine if the oil level is low, to avoid damaging it seriously. Check the oil level with the
–
engine off and the machine on a level surface.
Do not run the engine if the air fi lter is not installed, to avoid damaging it.
–
The coolant line is pressurised; do not perform any check until the engine has cooled down and, even if the
–
engine is cold, the tank plug must be opened with extreme care.
Only use original spare parts or parts of matching quality for the diesel engine. Using spare parts of lower
–
quality can seriously damage the engine.

1.
Drive the machine on a level ground.
•
While keeping the machine stationary, fully lower the side brooms and allow them to rotate for a few seconds.
•
Stop and lift the side brooms, then move the machine.
•
Check that the size and orientation of the prints left by the side brooms are as follows:
•
The right side broom must touch the ground along a circle arc (A) ranging from “11 o’clock” position to “4 o’clock” position.
•
The left side broom must touch the ground along a circle arc (B) ranging from “8 o’clock” position to “1 o’clock” position.
•
Adjust the broom height when the prints are out of specifi cation, according to the following procedure.
Engage the parking brake with the lever (66).
2.
Turn the ignition key (76) to OFF position and remove it.
3.
Broom height adjustment
On both sides of the machine, operate on the tensioning self-locking nut (C) of the spring (D) and consider the following:
4.
To lower the broom, the nut (C) must be unscrewed;
•
To lift the broom, the nut (C) must be screwed.
•
Perform step 1 again.
5.

8.
When the adjustment is completed, tighten the screws (I) and (L).
Perform step 1 again.
9.
Broom side position adjustment
The purpose of this adjustment is to improve the side position of the brooms as to the suction inlet (12).
10.
To perform the adjustment, loosen the nuts (J) and operate on the screw (K), thus changing the side position of the brooms.
11.
When the side brooms are too worn out, the adjustment is not possible; replace the brooms according to the instructions in the

DUST AND DEBRIS COLLECTION SYSTEM
DUST AND DEBRIS COLLECTION SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The dust and debris collection system consists of:
Suction fan
A)
Dust and debris suction fi lter
B)
Hopper
C)
Suction hose
D)
Suction inlet
E)
Skirt
F)
Gasket between suction inlet and hopper
G)
Hopper lid
H)
Hopper suction hole
I)
Open lid support rod
J)
Lifted hopper locking pins
K)
Lifted hopper locking pins housing
L)
Lifted hopper locking pins holes
M)
Air breather fi lter
N)
Hopper lid suction sealing gasket
Q)
The suction fan (A), activated by an hydraulic motor, creates vacuum inside the hopper (C). The vacuum determines the suction
capacity of the suction inlet (E) through the suction hose (D).
The hopper (C) is made of steel.
It is fastened with two pins to a mechanic/hydraulic lifting system (O) (for hopper lifting) and to a dumping system (P) (for hopper
tilting). The lid (H), which can be opened with an hydraulic control system, allows for debris discharging.
Both the lid (H) and the suction hole (I) are equipped with gaskets, which allow the suction inlet (E) to reach the maximum suction
capacity.
Inside the hopper there are two stainless steel fi lters having the following functions:
The suction fi lter (B) retains dust and debris during fan suction phase, and makes them settle in the hopper;
–
The breather fi lter (N) retains dust and debris escaped from the suction fi lter, and does not allow them to be discharged
–
externally.
Both fi lters can be easily removed and cleaned.
To perform checks and maintenance procedure safely with the hopper lifted and the lid opened, perform the following procedures:
Turn the rod (J) to lock the lid (H) in open position.
–
Remove the pins (K) from the housings (L) and place them into the holes (M) to lock the hopper (C) in lifted and dumped
–
position.
The suction inlet is made of sheet steel.
It is equipped with three wheels, which allow it to follow the pattern of the surface to be cleaned.
On its front side there is a skirt (F) that must be lifted to collect bulky debris.
