Prior to initial start-up

Unloading procedure

Do not use a forklift truck for unloading as it could cause da- mage to the sweeper.

The sweeper has been lashed onto a pallet to ensure that it can be transpor- ted safely. The procedure for unpacking the sweeper is as follows:

1.Remove the wooden boards from the pallet and nail them onto the end of the pallet (in front of the sweeper).

2.Detach the wires holding the sweeper in place at the ends of the pallet.

3.Knock away the blocks used for locking the wheels and use them for the support of the wooden planks on the left and right.

4.Drive the sweeper off the pallet and down the ramp made from the boards.

5.The side brush has been tied to the chassis for transport. Undo the cord holding it in place.

Moving the sweeper

If you want to move the sweeper without starting the engine,

nPull the section of panelling upwards and unscrew the knob on the inside of the bonnet.

nRaise the bonnet towards the front until it automatically locks in position.

nTake the open-jawed spanner (7 mm A/F) out of the tool kit.

nTurn the free-wheel arm (bypass) on the hydraulic pump either to the right or left by 90°, using the open-jawed spanner (7 mm A/F).

Note:

Do not move the sweeper over long distances or at a speed faster than

10 km/h with the switched off (e.g. when it is being towed), as this will result in damage to the hydraulic system.

After moving the sweeper without the engine running

n Turn the free-wheel arm back through 90°, otherwise it will not be possible

to drive the sweeper normally.

n Lift the rod up slightly and close the bonnet.

n Tighten the knob on the inside of the bonnet.
