This handbook should be carefully studied. In it you will find instructions for the operation and
maintenance of your Bucher Municipal sweeper.
It is vitally important that the operator and maintenance staff have a copy of this book. The life of
the machine will depend upon following these instructions in respect of regular maintenance and
correct operating methods.
It is important that only GENUINE BUCHER MUNICIPAL SPARE PARTS are used when servicing
and maintaining the sweeper. This is especially important for consumables, filters etc, as the use of
non-genuine parts may cause premature failure and invalidation of warranty.
When carrying out maintenance or part replacement, additional explanatory illustrations can be
found in the Parts Manual, which shows and lists hardware, and availability of spares with the
orientation and positions of the various components.
