5(16) 4. Technical specifications Listed below are the labels and markings, which must be visible on the equipment. Replace the warning labels, if they have become unclear or detached completely. New labels are available via your retailer or contact information provided on the cover. The warning labels contain important safety information.
22,5 MPa (225 bar) 22,5 MPa (225 bar) Watering system A2882: nozzle tube with four nozzles, Availabel options: Tank volume 80 litres Suitable AVANT loader: 216, 218, 220 300-700 400-700 5. Assembly of the rotary broom The broom is ready for use as delivered. Monut the attachment and its hydraulic hoses to the loader as instructed below.
The attachment is equipped with either standard quick couplings or the multiconnector system. If you want to change the type of the hydraulic couplings, contact your Avant dealer or service point for instructions or installation services. For 200-series loaders only conventional quick couplings are available.
8(16) Make sure that all three couplings are properly connected, otherwise the hydraulic motors of the attachment may get damaged. In a 200-series machine, the hose can be connected by pushing the coupling directly into its counterpart. When connecting and disconnecting the 200-series hydraulics quick couplings, you should pay attention to their locking.
9(16) 5.4. Storage When finished working with the broom, lower it on an even surface, where it cannot move by accident. Prevent unintended movements of the attachment by placing it e.g. on blocks of wood. Do not store the attachment directly against the ground. Before winter storage, clean the brush carefully. Touch up the paint where needed and grease the lubrication points to prevent rust damage.
10(16) The broom may be operated only to the intended rotating direction. Do not use the broom for pushing purposes, without rotating it simultaneously. The broom may get damaged. Use high engine rpm for the best operating performance. Depending on the loader model, one or two hydraulic pumps may be used.
The later installing of the water spraying system should be left to AVANT service. Contact your dealer for information. The water spraying system consists of an 80-litre water tank, an electric pump and a nozzle tube with four spraying nozzles.
Finding any of these faults means that the hydraulic hose or component in question must be replaced. Spare parts are available from your nearest AVANT retailer or service point. Leave the repairing task to service professionals, if not certain about how to perform the tasks safely.
13(16) 7.2. Brush The material of the brush bristles is nylon and in normal operating conditions they it has a good wear resistance capability. As the brush wears down it loses its effectiveness, and an excessively worn brush should be replaced. As the diameter of the brush decreases, its circumferential velocity decreases as well and at some point it becomes insufficient for throwing material efficiently for collecting operation.
14(16) 8. Warranty terms Avant Tecno Oy grants a warranty of one year (12 months) from the date of purchase for the attachment it manufactures. The warranty covers repair costs as follows: • Work costs are covered, if the repair is not performed at the factory.
