MACHINE OPERATION

1. Avoid stopping for a long time with the machine in the
same position and the brooms rotating: this could create
unwanted marks on the floor.
2. To collect light and bulky debris, lift the front skirt by
pressing the pedal (8, Fig. C); remember that while the
front skirt is lifted, the machine vacuum power
decreases.
WARNING!
When operating on wet grounds, it is essential
to turn off the vacuum system with the lever (3,
Fig. C) to prevent the dust filter from being
damaged.
3. For machine proper operation, the dust filter must be as
clean as possible. To keep the dust filter clean while
sweeping, turn off the vacuum system with the lever (3,
Fig. C), then press the switch (9, Fig. B) for a while.
During this procedure the main motor and the vacuum
fan are automatically stopped.
After cleaning the filter, push the switch (9, Fig. B)
forward to turn on the main broom and the vacuum
system, then start sweeping again.
While working, repeat the procedure every 10 minutes
on average (depending on the dustiness of the area to
be cleaned).
NOTE
When the dust filter is clogged and/or the
hopper is full, the machine cannot collect dust
and debris anymore.
4. The hopper (20, Fig. C) should be dumped after each
working period and whenever it is full (see the procedure
in the next paragraph).
