Diesel engine stop

Let the machine running at idle for a few minutes to stabilize the system.

Turn the ignition key (6, Fig. D) counterclockwise, to the end of stroke, then remove it.

Engage the parking brake (3, Fig. D).

WARNING!
Ensure that the hydraulic system enabling switch (31, Fig. E) is disabled (completely pressed on the upper part).

USING 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 tyre pressure is correct (87 psi [6 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 (32, Fig. E) (see Display Functions paragraph).

To transport the machine (without sweeping), it is necessary to set the transfer mode according to the following procedure:

Check that the parking brake (3, Fig. D) is engaged.

Start the engine as shown in the relevant paragraph.

Check that the hopper (2, Fig. G) is lowered and that the warning light (3, Fig. D) is off.

NOTE
The hopper lifting and lowering is signalled by a buzzer.

CAUTION!
When the hopper is lifted, the machine maximum speed is 5 km/h. In this condition, the accelerator pedal feel is
very poor, which signifi es that the machine is not being used properly.

Fasten the suction inlet by decreasing the length of the chain (1, Fig. S) by releasing the end ring (2) and engaging one of the

next rings (3) to the spring catch (4).

NOTE
In this way, the suction inlet will not lay on the ground in case the hydraulic system fails.

Fasten the 3rd broom position by engaging the spring catch of the chain (6, Fig. U) in the transport position (1) on the 3rd

broom arm (2).
