USING THE MACHINE
TURNING ON THE MACHINE
Fit in the ignition key and turn it clockwise. Three zeros will come up on
the display for about three seconds, followed by the voltage rating of
the battery.
The operator’s seat features a safety device that disables traction (forward
and reverse) when the operator gets up from his seat.
NOTE: temporary activation of the indicator lights on the console and of
the horn is to be considered normal.
Let at least three seconds pass after you have turned o the machine,
before turning it on again.
Check the state of the batteries on the appropriate display.
The display has two functions: Voltmeter and Hour meter.
The voltmeter features an undervoltage checking function which
automatically disables all services, traction excluded, if the battery charge
level drops below 20.5V (“FLAT BATTERY” ashes on the display)
In this case, recharge the battery (see the “MAINTENANCE” section and
the battery handbook).
If the battery charge level is suitably high, you can start your work.
If the machine features a petrol engine, rst start the engine.
STARTING/STOPPING THE PETROL ENGINE
To start the endothermic engine, push toggle switch I towards
its START position (see switchboard); the toggle switch will ick
automatically back to its initial position.
N.B.: if the engine does not start immediately, the maximum activation
time of the starter motor must not exceed 5 seconds for a petrol
engine . These activation intervals can be repeated after a short
resting time (approximately 8 – 10 sec.).
To stop the motor, ick toggle switch I to OFF.
When the machine is running with the endothermic engine, make sure
the cooling fan is running too. If the alternator overheats, the overheating
protection device it is tted with will stop the machine with the “ENGINE
PAUSE” error code.
To switch the machine ON, select either forward or reverse on the button
on the steering wheel. Then press the accelerator pedal and the machine
will start moving.
AUTO-POWER-ON/OFF
An automatic system turns the machine functions on and off
automatically.
When one of the three work programmes is selected by pressing the P1,
P2 or P3 button, the following functions are temporarily activated: centre
brush, suction motor, side brushes. The LED of the chosen programme
and the centre brush LED come on at the same time.
If the accelerator pedal is not pressed, after a few seconds the functions
shut down and the three LEDS start ashing. The sweeper is now in AUTO-
POWER-OFF mode. All functions are automatically reactivated when the
user presses the accelerator pedal: AUTO-POWER-ON.
NOTE: When the accelerator is released all the machine functions are
automatically switched off, with the exception of the endothermic
engine, which will be switched o after approximately 6 seconds (AUTO
POWER OFF).
USING THE WORK PROGRAMMES
After turning on the machine and starting the engine, if necessary,
choose among the three available programmes, the one best suiting
your requirements by pressing one of the three keys.
REMOVING THE BATTERIES
When removing the batteries, the operator must be equipped with suitable
personal protection devices (gloves, goggles, overalls, safety shoes, etc) to
reduce the risk of accidents.
Make sure the switches on the control panel are in the “0” position (o) and the
machine is turned o. Keep away from naked ames, do not short circuit the
battery poles, do not cause sparks and do not smoke. Proceed as follows.
• disconnect the battery wiring and bridge terminals from the battery poles.
• if necessary, remove the devices fixing the battery to the base of the
machine.
• lift the batteries from the compartment using suitable lifting equipment.
