Operating advice
Please remember, the information provided in this handbook is designed to ensure that the Scarab sweeper operates both safely and efficiently.
The design of this sweeper is for the removal of spoil on traffic or pedestrian areas also litter collection using the wander hose.
A poorly maintained sweeper will become unreliable, inefficient and potentially dangerous. Always observe the recommended maintenance and safety related advice provided.
Unless it is wet or raining, always use the low-pressure water spray system when sweeping. This will not only reduce the amount of dust generated, it will also ensure more
efficient collection of material. This is because wet material is heavier and will drop more readily from the air stream inside the hopper. If swept dry more of the finer material
will pass through the screen, wearing out the fan blades on its way back to the environment behind you.
Operators should be trained in the following elements:
• Health and safety observations/notices
• Transit driving
• In-cab and external controls
• Hopper safety/door prop use
• Brush setting
• Nozzle flap adjustment
• Correct sweeping operations
• Low and high pressure water systems
• Load discharge (tipping)
• Daily, weekly maintenance schedules
• End of day cleaning, i.e. suction fan, fan screen and sweeper body
Operator training can be provided by Scarab Sweepers upon request.
