IMPORTANT: The height of the side flaps Detail 2 Fig. 14 can be adjusted by sliding them along the slots. If they
need to be replaced, once they have been assembled, make sure that they are raised approximately 2 mm from the
ground.
CENTRAL BROOM:
Detail 2 Fig. 5. Every 50/80 hours of operation, or as needed, make sure the central broom is in good condition, especially if
you suspect that cords, wires, etc have been accidentally collected.
If it is necessary to remove these materials from the broom, you must:
Remove the hopper Detail 1 Fig. 6.
Get down on all fours and look at the central broom underneath the machine; wearing gloves and a mask to protect
your respiratory tract, remove any cords or wires that are tangled around the central broom. It is also possible to use
the 3 hooks included (eyebolts) to lift the machine (see Fig. 1) and perform this operation being careful not to station
yourself under the machine.
ADJUSTING THE CENTRAL BROOM:
If you notice that the machine no longer cleans perfectly or leaves debris behind, you will need to adjust it by lowering it as
follows:
Place the lever illustrated in Fig. 10 in a position where the central broom is raised.
Loosen the register screw Detail 1 Fig. 15.
Lower the register by 3/4 mm or the required amount.
Lock the register by tightening the screw.
Place the lever illustrated in Fig. 10 above the register Detail 1 Fig 15.
It is possible to adjust the central broom until the register Detail 1 Fig. 15 reaches the end run; at this point it is
necessary to change the broom.
IMPORTANT: To make sure the central broom is adjusted correctly, it is necessary to measure its "Track", as
follows:
Once the adjustments have been made, start the machine and, without travelling forwards or in reverse, leave it on the
spot for at least 10/15 sec. with the central broom lowered.
Turn the motor off, raise the central broom and manually move the machine forwards, until you can see a track left by
the rotation of the central broom on the floor, as illustrated in Fig. 16.
IMPORTANT: The width of the track must measure no less than 4 cm.
ADJUSTING THE SIDE BROOM:
If you notice that the side broom no longer directs debris towards the central broom, it is necessary to adjust its height as
follows:
Holding the side brush in a raised position, unscrew the locking ring Detail. 2 Fig. 9a, adjust to the desired height with the
screw Detail. 1 Fig. 9a and retighten the locking ring Detail. 2 Fig. 9a. If necessary, repeat the adjustment.
DEBRIS HOPPER

using hot water and possibly common detergent to avoid any bacterial growth (wear rubber gloves).
