7 Operator instructions
7.1 Safety instructions
IMPORTANT - Failure to observe the following safety
rules may cause injury or damage to equipment.
IMPORTANT - The machine is not approved as a road
vehicle and may not be used on public roads.
7.1.1 Checks to be performed before starting up the
machine.
Before using the machine, make sure all safety
devices are positioned correctly and are in good
condition.
7.1.2 Checks to be performed and behaviour to be
adopted once the machine has been started up.
If the machine starts to make abnormal noises, turn off
immediately. Do not start up the machine until the cause
of the noise has been eliminated.
Never leave the key in the key switch when the machine
is unattended.
Never allow people to approach the machine while in
operation.
Monitor correct operation of the work cycle and stop the
machine immediately in the case of abnormal operation.
7.2 Prohibited operations
Adjustment, maintenance and/or lubrication may not
be performed with the machine on.
7.3 Training
All operators must be suitably trained, including with hands-on
experience. This training should emphasise:
That the machine may not be used on public roads;
•
That passengers may not be transported;
•
The need for attention and concentration while working;
•
Do not operate the motor in closed spaces where harmful
•
carbon monoxide fumes may build up;
Do not use the machine on slopes of greater than 12%.
•
Remember there is no such thing as a "safe" slope;
•
Do not stop or start the machine suddenly while going up or
•
down a slope;
Engage the clutch (or forward movement device) slowly and
•
always keep the machine in gear, particularly when going
down a slope;
Reduce machine speed on slopes and around tight bends;
•
Pay attention to possible bumps, holes or other hidden
•
dangers;
Do not change direction suddenly;
•
Never use the machine with defective guards or without the
•
safety devices;
Before leaving the machine, unplug from the power socket
•
and activate the parking wheel brake by lowering the lever
on the front wheel. Turn off the motor and remove the
ignition key.
7.4 Hidden dangers
Use of machines with internal combustion engine in
closed or poorly ventilated environments (e.g.
greenhouses, warehouses, workshops, stalls, vertical
covered silos, etc) and the resulting combustion
fumes given off from the exhaust represent a risk of
intoxication and may cause injury or death.
7.5 Preliminary checks and operations
IMPORTANT: do not start the machine up while the
preliminary checks and operations are underway
Failure to observe these instructions may cause
injury or damage to equipment.
For model with internal combustion engine:
With the motor cold, check that the oil level is between the
•
maximum and minimum marks.
Check the fuel level. The machine must be filled with lead
•
free petrol. Do not use petrol/oil mixtures.
Fill with fuel and top up the engine oil if necessary. See
•
annexed manual for detailed instructions.
For model with electric motor:
Check the level of the electrolyte fluid inside the battery and
•
top up if necessary.
Charge the battery.
•
7.6 Controls model ET
The operator controls the machine using the controls on the
handlebar.
7.6.1 Handlebar controls
The handlebar is a shaft attached to the chassis of the sweeper. There
are two levers on the handlebars:
The left hand lever is the clutch. Pushing it connects the
•
motor rotation shaft to the pulley which transmits the
rotational movement by means of belts to the wheels to
make the machine move forwards. The connection is by
means of a wheel with tyre which is held at a distance by a
spring and is brought in contact with the motor rotation shaft
by pressing the lever.
When the right hand lever is pressed, the front flap is lifted
•
to allow large refuse to be vacuumed up.
On the part in front of the operator there is an ignition block where the
ignition key is inserted.
