  • Page 31: Sweeping Direction Determine Wr 870 Honda | Pro

    Start-up Determining sweeping direction WR 870 Honda | PRO The Radial Sweeper is equipped with a robust mechanism for reversing the direction of rotation. The desired direction of rotation is set by me- ans of a hand lever, which can be easily reached from the normal working position. (Fig. 14 - Determine the direction of sweeping) Pull the lever up to remove the retaining pin from the hole. Now swing the lever into the desired position and then push the retaining pin into the provided hole. Since the power transmission from the engine to the brush element is via a V-belt drive that requires some friction, you should press the direction selector lever in the desired direction until there is a noticeable resis- tance (no force necessary) and then fix it in the hole. Depending on the degree of wear of the belt, it may be necessary after a certain period of use to fix the lever in the next additional hole.

    Start-up Charging the WR 870 Battery Westermann Radial Sweepers are equipped with a maintenance-free battery. The enclosed charger plugs into a standard 220V mains socket. Then the adapter of the charger is inserted into the socket on the back of the brush. Now the battery charges automatically! The battery charger is equipped with overload protection, so that over- charging is prevented. The charging time depends on the battery level. Securing slot (Fig. 16 - Battery charging) The WR 870 Battery is equipped with overcharging protection in the form of a fuse which switches off the machine before it can be damaged.
  • Page 34: Starting The Wr 870 Battery | Pro

    Start-up Starting the WR 870 Battery | Pro To start, the sweeper must be on a level surface to ensure proper brush startup. Make sure that the fuse required for operation is in the slot provided. Securing slot (Fig. 17 - Machine start WR 870 Battery) A lever is mounted on the handle of the sweeper with which the direction of rotation can be selected in a comfortable way. The lever is adjusted in such a way that when the lever is released, the Radial Sweeper stops turning in the rest position. Depending on the desired direction of rotation, the lower part of the lever is now pulled upwards by hand against the handle or the upper part of the lever is pressed by hand against the handle. By releasing the lever, the rota- tion is slowed down and the sweeper comes to a standstill.
  • Page 35: Operation

    Operation 10.1 Operation description Start in rest position, then bring from rest position into working position JDepending on the debris and sweeping amount, a reaction force is felt on the hand-held machine, and must be countered by the operator accordingly. If the reaction force is too strong for the operator, the al- ready formed „swath“ must be picked up. Too strong a reaction force can also be caused by a wrong set brush height. If this is the case, the brush height must be adjusted according to ch. 9.2. A sudden reaction force (kickback) can also occur when pushing with the rotating swee- ping brush against a firm resistance. Caution is needed! 10.2 Service interval The first 50 hours of operation have a major impact on the perfor- mance and life of the machine. The following considerations should be taken into account to ensure you enjoy your WR 870 for a long time.
