–Make sure that
the LH side brush (if fitted) is still in the raised position, the RH side brush is still in the raised position,
the main brush is still in the raised position.
–Put the starting key into “Position 1”. The sweeper is ready to operate.
!Important information
–The drive mechanism is equipped with an electronic overload fuse. Overload is indicated by a pilot lamp. In the event engage the parking brake and release the drive pedals(approx. 10 min.) until the drive components have cooled down.
–For safety reasons the drive mechanism remains inac- tive if a drive pedal is engaged before the keyswitch is turned on.

Braking
–Release the drive pedal and the sweeper will brake automatically.
Note: The braking effect can be increased by careful operation of the drive pedal for the opposite direction and/or by using the parking brake.
Going up slopes
–Thesweepercanbedriveninthefastgear(position
) for slopes up to a gradient of 15 %.
–For slopes of gradients between 15 % and 18 %, the
sweeper must be operated in low gear (position 
).
Stopping the sweeper and switching off
–Release the drive pedal. The sweeper brakes automati- cally and comes to a halt.
–Apply the parking brake
