Polypropylene Sand Wedge Main Brush −
Recommended for heavy accumulation of sand and other small particulates.
Polypropylene Window Main Brush −
Recommended for light litter, especially on smooth floors.
Polypropylene 8-double row Main Brush −
Recommended for lighter duty sweeping applications.
Nylon 8-double row Main Brush −
Recommended for general sweeping, especially on rough or irregular surfaces. Nylon has a long wear life.
Nylon Full Fill Main Brush − Recommended for accumulation of sand and other small particulates. Nylon has a long wear life.
Nylon Patrol Main Brush − Recommended for bulky debris swept at faster speeds.
Wire 8-double row Main Brush −
Recommended for general sweeping and slightly impacted debris.
Natural Fiber and Full Fill Main Brush −
Recommended for accumulation of sand and other small particulates.
Polypropylene Side Brush − Recommended for general sweeping of light to medium debris.
Nylon Side Brush − Recommended for general sweeping of rough or irregular surfaces. Nylon has a long wear life.
Flat Wire Side Brush − Recommended for outdoor curb-side sweeping where dirt is heavy or compacted.
Machines SN 000000 − 006500
Machines SN 006501 −
The steering wheel controls the direction of machine travel. The directional pedal controls the speed and forward/reverse direction. The brake pedal slows and stops the machine.
The side brush sweeps debris into the path of the main brush. The main brush sweeps debris from the floor into the hopper. The vacuum system pulls dust and air through the hopper and the dust control system.
The machine also has a wet side brush dust control option to help contain dust.
When sweeping is finished, shake the dust filter and empty the hopper.

OPERATION
CHANGING THE LPG TANK
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing machine, stop on level surface, set parking brake, turn off machine, and remove key.
1.Open the side access door.
2.Close the LPG tank service valve.
3.Start the machine and operate the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. Turn off the machine.
WARNING: Machine emits toxic gases. Severe respiratory damage or asphyxiation can result. Provide adequate ventilation. Consult with your regulatory authorities for exposure limits. Keep engine properly tuned.
FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, keep flames and sparks away from fuel system service area. Keep area well ventilated.
4.Put on gloves and remove the quick disconnect tank coupling.
5.Open the LPG tank access door located in front of the operator seat.
6.Disengage the mounting strap, then remove the locating pin and remove the empty LPG fuel tank.
7.Align the hole in the tank collar with the centering pin and carefully place the full LPG tank onto the tray. Secure the tank with mounting strap.
8.Connect the LPG fuel line to the tank service coupling. Make sure the tank service coupling is clean and undamaged and that it matches the fuel line coupling.
9.Slowly open the tank service valve and check for leaks. If a leak is found, immediately close the service valve and inform the appropriate personnel.

OPERATION
STARTING THE MACHINE
1.LPG powered machines: Slowly open the liquid service valve.
NOTE: Opening the service valve too quickly may cause the service check valve to stop the flow of LPG fuel. If the check valve stops the fuel flow, close the service valve, wait a few seconds, and slowly open the valve again.
2.Sit in the operator seat and press the brake pedal or set the parking brake.
FOR SAFETY: When starting machine, keep foot on brake and directional pedal in neutral.
3.S30: Place the Engine speed switch into the idle position.
S30 XP and X4: The engine will automatically start in the idle speed.
4.Turn the ignition switch key until the engine starts.
NOTE: Do not operate the starter motor for more than 10 seconds at a time or after the engine has started. Allow the starter to cool 15−20 seconds between starting attempts or damage to the starter motor may occur.
5.Allow the engine and hydraulic system to warm up for three to five minutes.
WARNING: Machine emits toxic gases. Severe respiratory damage or asphyxiation can result. Provide adequate ventilation. Consult with your regulatory authorities for exposure limits. Keep engine properly tuned.
6. Turn on lights.
TURNING OFF THE MACHINE
1.Stop the machine and turn off all sweeping functions.
2.Turn the ignition switch key counter clockwise to turn off the machine. Remain in the operator seat until the engine is off.
CAUTION: LPG engine will run for a few seconds after key is turned off. Apply parking brake before leaving machine.
NOTE: To protect engine emission components on LPG powered machines, the engine will continue to operate for a few seconds after the ignition switch is turned off.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing machine, do not park near combustible materials, dust, gases, or liquids. Stop on level surface, set parking brake, turn off machine, and remove key.

OPERATION
WHILE OPERATING THE MACHINE
Pick up oversized debris before sweeping. Pick up wire, string, twine, large pieces of wood, or any other debris that could become wrapped around or tangled in the brushes.
Drive as straight a path as possible. Avoid bumping into posts or scraping the sides of the machine. Overlap the sweep paths by several centimeters (a few inches).
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.
Adjust the machine speed and brush pressure. Use the lowest brush pressure for best performance.
Keep the machine moving to prevent damaging floor finishes.
If poor cleaning performance is observed, stop cleaning and refer to MACHINE TROUBLESHOOTING in this manual.
Perform the Daily Maintenance Procedures after each use (see MACHINE MAINTENANCE in 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.
FOR SAFETY: When using machine, go slowly on inclines and slippery surfaces.
Do not operate machine in areas where the ambient temperature is above 43_ C (110_ F). Do not operate sweeping functions in areas where the ambient temperature is below freezing 0_ C (32_ F). With the proper hydraulic fluid and a machine warm−up period, the machine is capable of operating at much lower temperatures.
FOR SAFETY: Do not sweep on ramp inclines that exceed 14% grade or transport (GVWR) on ramp inclines that exceed 17% grade.
