N.B.: the battery charger power cable is delivered inside the bag containing this instruction booklet. WARNING: keep the tailgate open throughout the battery recharging cycle, to allow gas fumes to escape. • When the recharge cycle is complete, disconnect the battery charger cable from the mains. •...
PREPARING TO WORK Before beginning to work, it is necessary to: 1. Carry out the steps to ensure the machine is in a safe condition (read “MACHINE SAFETY” on page 15). 2. Make sure the debris hopper is empty. If it isn't, empty it (refer to “EMPTYING THE DEBRIS HOPPER” on page 30. 3.
STARTING WORK (battery-powered versions) To start working, proceed as follows: 1. Carry out all the checks listed in the section “PREPARING TO WORK” on page 20. 2. Sit on the driver’s seat. 3. Check the parking brake is engaged by pressing the service brake pedal (1) (Fig.1) and rotating the lever (2) anti-clockwise (Fig.2). 4.
Page 22
N.B.: the control board only activates the suction motor and the gearmotors of the central brush and side brush(es) when the drive pedal has been pressed. N.B.: in the first few metres, adjust the working speed according to the amount of waste and debris to be collected. N.B.: to adjust the forward speed, refer to the “REGULATING THE MOVEMENT SPEED (battery-powered versions)”...
STARTING WORK (versions with endothermic engine) WARNING: for your own safety, do not switch the engine on in a closed place as the exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide which is poisonous; it can quickly saturate a closed area and cause ailments or even be lethal. WARNING: a person who breathes in carbon monoxide may lose consciousness or even suffer lethal consequences.
Page 24
N.B.: as soon as the parking brake is disengaged, the relative indicator light (6) on the control panel will turn off (Fig.8). 7. The procedure for a brushing operation with the aid of the vacuum is explained below. 8. Activate the suction motor by moving the knob (7) on the control panel downwards (Fig.9). 9.
HOUR METER For battery-powered versions, the instrument panel has a control display (1) (Fig.1); the third screen after machine switch-on shows the machine operating hours in the central part.
