Disposal

Disposal instructions are illustrated in the form of pictograms on the device or packaging. Description of the pictograms is given in “Identification” chapter.

Disposal of transport packaging
Packaging protects the device against damage during transport. Packaging materials are usually selected according to their effect on environment and disposalmethods and can therefore be recycled. Returning of the packaging back to circulation saves resources and costs for packaging disposal. Parts of the packaging (e.g. foil, styropor) may be dangerous for children. Risk of suffocation! Keep these parts of the packaging out of reach of children and dispose as soon as possible.

Emergency Action

Apply the first aid adequate to the injury and get qualified medical assistance as quickly as possible. Protect the injured person from more accidents and calm him/her down. For the sake of eventual accident, in accordance with DIN 13164, a workplace has to be fitted with a first-aid kit. It is essential to replace any used material in the first-aid kit immediately after it has been used. If you seek help, state the following pieces of information:

1. Accident site
2. Accident type
3. Number of injured persons
4. Injury type(s)

Handling requirements

The operating staff must carefully read the Operating Instructions before using the appliance.

Qualification

Apart from the detailed instruction by a professional no special qualification is necessary for using the appliance.

Transport and storage

For any longer storage the appliance must be thoroughly cleaned and stored so as unauthorised persons could not access it.

• Empty the dirt collecting container
• Adjust the brushes to relieve them
• Store the appliance when it is dry
• To save spaces, the sliding handle can be folded. Loosen the screws, pull the sliding handle out and fold forward.

Assembly

When putting the appliance into working order, it is enough just to fold up the sliding handle and tighten the screws included in the supply.

Now adjust the sliding handle height. Loosen the screws (pic. 1/6), select the required fixture and fix the sliding handle in the desired height.

Operation

When the sweeper is moved, the feeder brushes (pic. 3/5) and sweeping brushes (pic. 3/8) start rotating, helped by the belt drive. Rotating feeder brushes (pic. 3/5) drive the dirt to the centre. It is then collected by both sweeping brushes, running opposite each other (pic. 3/8) and taken to the dirt collecting container (pic. 3/3).

Adjustment of feeder and sweeping brushes
Depending on the type of use and wear, it is possible to centrally adjust the height of feeder brushes and the back sweeping brush. Turn the central screw for height adjustment (pic. 1/5). The deeper you adjust the appliance, the closer to the ground the feeder brushes are going to be and the more difficult it is going to be to move the appliance forward.

Emptying the dirt collecting container
If you want to take out the dirt collecting container (pic. 1/3) to empty it, take it by its handle and pull up.

If metal, glass or sharp objects have been swept, it is necessary to use firm working gloves when emptying the dirt collecting container.

Inspections and maintenance

Use a wet cloth for plastic parts cleaning. Do not use any cleaning agents, solvents or sharp objects.

After every use
Remove the appliance off dust and dirt.
Empty the dirt collecting container.
Except the above, the appliance needs not be maintained any further
