STARTING AND STOPPING THE MACHINE

The machine can be started and set to:
– Transport mode
– Working mode
The relevant procedures are shown below.
WARNING!
When steering, avoid abrupt direction changes, pay careful attention and drive the machine at slow speed,
especially when the hopper is full or when operating on inclines.
CAUTION!
Before operating the machine, check that the tire pressure is correct (72.5 psi [5 bar]) and, if necessary, adjust it.
Setting the machine to transport mode
CAUTION!
Before setting the machine to transport mode, check that alarms or expired maintenance intervals are not
shown on the display (17, Fig. D) (see Display Functions paragraph).
To transport the machine (without sweeping), it is necessary to set the transfer mode according to the following procedure:
1. Check that the parking brake (13, Fig. E) is engaged.
2. Start the engine as shown in the relevant paragraph.
3. Check that the hopper (6, Fig. G) is lowered and that the warning light (3, Fig. D) is off.
CAUTION!
If the machine speed exceeds 5 km/h with the hopper lifted, the warning light (3, Fig. D) fl ashes to warn about
the dangerous manoeuvre.
4. Lift the 3rd broom arm (23, Fig. G) by pushing the joystick (46, Fig. D) rearward.
5. Press and hold the spring-return switch (34, Fig. D) and shift the 3rd broom arm extension (22, Fig. G) to the right until the end
of stroke (the shifting operation will stop automatically).
6. Shift the 3rd broom arm (23, Fig. G) to closed position by pushing the joystick (46, Fig. D) to the left.
The shifting operation will stop automatically when the end of stroke is reached.
WARNING!
It is possible to shift to the left or to the right the 3rd broom arm (23, Fig. G) safely, only when the arm extension
(22) is to the left or right end of stroke.
In this situation the arm shifting angle is limited by proper safety devices.
In other situations, the shifting angle is limited to avoid damaging the machine or affect its stability.
It is therefore advisable to bring always the 3rd broom arm extension (22, Fig. G) to the left or right end of
stroke.
WARNING!
It is possible to bring the 3rd broom arm (23, Fig. G) to closed position, only when the arm extension (22) is to
the right end of stroke.
