    INTRUCTION AND SAFETY 4 EXPLANATION OF THE MACHINE WARNING SIGNS When developing the machine, every effort was made to ensure operator protection against safety hazards. However, in special situations the machine can still represent a hazard. Warning signs are therefore placed on the machine to reduce the risk of damage. It is therefore important to pay attention to the hazards indicated on the following labels.

  • Page 13: Machine Design

    MACHINE DESIGN 6 MACHINE DESIGN The machine is mounted on the implement carrier tilting frame with a hydraulic quick change device (quick hitch). The machine collection container is an integral part of the machine frame, which ensures the compact design and a good driver’s view of the sweeping brushes. When the collection container is full, the machine can be lifted above the container using the implement carrier multifunctional arm and then the bottom of the collection container is hydraulically opened and the collection container is emptied.

  • Page 14: Suction Nozzle

    MACHINE DESIGN The machine also includes a water tank with a capacity of 50 litres and a water jet designed to moisten the environment to eliminate dust generated during work. A jet is placed at each side brush and on the brush before the suction device leading to the tank. On the top of the collection container there is a turning handle, using which it is possible to adjust suction to the suction nozzle (Fig.

  • Page 15: Suction Unit

    MACHINE DESIGN Suction Unit The suction unit is mounted on the hinged lid (a), which facilitates the servicing and cleaning of the unit. The suction device is driven hydraulically by a hydraulic motor. Important: Never open the lid if the machine is in operation. To reduce the dust concentration from the machine exhaust air, the suction unit is equipped with the rotating brush (b).

  • Page 16: Hand Suction

    MACHINE DESIGN Hand Suction Also a hand suction device for cleaning the areas where it is not possible to drive the machine can be part of the machine as additional equipment. The hand suction device is placed in the holder (a) on the implement carrier multifunctional arm.

    DRIVING THE MACHINE 7 INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL OF TORNADO-400 Installation of Tornado-400 1. Connect the machine using the implement carrier quick change system (quick hitch). Activate the hitch to secure the machine firmly to the implement carrier. 2. Lift the machine 100 mm above the ground and tilt it forward in such a way that the wheel in the front of the machine touches the ground.

  • Page 18: Removal Of Tornado-400

    DRIVING THE MACHINE Removal of Tornado-400 When removing the sweeping/suction machine, proceed in reverse order. Make sure that before driving the implement carrier from the machine all hydraulic hoses, lines, and hand suction device are disconnected from the machine. 8 DRIVING THE MACHINE...

  • Page 19: Adjusting The Suction Nozzle

    DRIVING THE MACHINE The speed of rotation of the brushes can be adjusted using the adjustment screw (k). The speed of rotation of the brushes depends partly on the speed of travel of the machine and partly on the surface material. The brushes can be manually stopped using the ball valve (l).

  • Page 20: Emptying The Collection Container

    DRIVING THE MACHINE Emptying the Collection Container Empty the collection container directly onto the ground or into a container. To open the bottom of the collection container, the suction device and the brushes must be off. When emptying the collection container, remain seating on the driver’s seat and keep the door closed.
  • Page 21 DRIVING THE MACHINE Turn the hydraulics ball valve ¼ turn to stop the brushes (b). Open the lid at the bottom of the hand suction device (c). Remove the flexible hose from the bracket on the top of the hand suction device. The hose uncoils automatically (d).

  • Page 22: Starting

    DRIVING THE MACHINE In the middle of the hand suction device there is a handle (b); it can be adjusted up and down after loosening two wing screws. The working height of the hand suction device can thus be adapted to the operator. When the implement carrier is connected to the machine, the seat switch is short-circuited to enable the operator to leave the implement carrier seat...
  • Page 23 DRIVING THE MACHINE To achieve the maximum suction power, increase the implement carrier speed until the machine gauge shows 160 bars. Another increase in the speed prevents heat in the system because the excess oil flows through the pressure relief valve. Therefore, never drive with a higher speed of the diesel engine to ensure that the gauge needle cannot get into the red zone.

    3. When driving in freezing temperatures, we recommend driving with a mixture of weak antifreeze. Timan recommends washing the container, the suction nozzle, the suction unit, and the bottom cover daily to remove any deposited material. If any aspirated material gets dry, it is difficult to remove it.
