4.1 PREPARING FOR WORK The manufacturer guarantees that the machine is fully operational and has been checked according to quality control procedures and is ready for normal use. This does not release the user from an obligation to check the machine's condition after delivery and before first use.
Page 41
• connect the sweeper to the tractor linkage (see „Hitching to tractor") • Connect electrical wiring and hydraulic system lines. • start the machine (see Sweeper operation) • check the hydraulic system operation, • test the sprinkler system. ATTENTION! It is recommended to first run the sweeper in the raised position, because oil circulation in the wrong direction can cause waste tank to tip and damage the machine.
4.2 CHECKING TECHNICAL CONDITION When preparing the sweeper for normal use, check individual elements according to the schedule (TAB. 4.1) TAB. 4.1 TECHNICAL INSPECTION SCHEDULE DESCRIPTION SERVICE OPERATION FREQUENCY check the technical condition of safety Condition of safety guards guards, if complete and correctly mounted.
4.3 HITCHING TO TRACTOR The sweeper may be mounted on a tractor fulfilling the requirements contained in table „1.1 AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR'S REQUIREMENTS”. ATTENTION! Before hitching the sweeper to tractor, read the tractor operator's manual. DANGER Exercise caution when hitching the machine. FIG.

DANGER When connecting the hydraulic lines to the tractor, make sure that the tractor hydraulic system is not under pressure. Before beginning work using the sweeper, check the oil level in tractor hydraulic system. FIG. 4.3A Direction of sweeping roller brush rotation Sweeping roller brush begins to rotate a moment after actuating the appropriate hydraulic circuit by means of a tractor hydraulic selective control valve lever.
4.4 SWEEPER OPERATION 4.4.1 FILLING THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM TANK Water tank (1) is filled through the inlet opening secured with a cap (2) (FIG. 4.4A). The tank holds 130 litres of water. FIG. 4.4A Water tank of sprinkler system (1)- water tank; (2)- filler plug; IMPORTANT! If there is a risk that temperatures drop below 0°C, drain water from the sprinkler system.
Install the switch in the operator cab in an easily accessible place. FIG. 4.5A Sprinkler system control (1)- sprinkler system switch; (2)- 7-pole socket connector; (ON) or (I)- sprinkler system is turned on; (OFF) or (0)- sprinkler system is turned off IMPORTANT! If there is no water in the tank, the sprinkler system's pump will switch off automatically.
4.4.4 OPERATING SWEEPER WITHOUT WASTE TANK Sweepers equipped with waste tank can be converted to a sweeper operating without the waste tank. To remove the waste tank: Remove the cotter pins from the hydraulic cylinder mounting points so it can be completely removed (FIG.

To set the working angle of the sweeping roller brush (FIG. 4.8A), change the position of the pin to the appropriate retaining hole (A), (B), (C) in the flat bar (1).Fix the pin in hole (A) of the flat bar (1) to obtain 0 sweeper deflection.
To adapt the sweeper for operation in front of the carrying vehicle (FIG. 4.9A) remove cotter pin (4) which secures flat bar (5), unscrew 5 bolts (3) fixing bracket (2) of main pivot and rotate the entire suspension frame (1) by 180 and screw down bracket (2).

5.1 SWEEPING ROLLER BRUSH ADJUSTMENT Adjustment of the sweeping roller brush should always be carried out in conjunction with adjustment of the waste tank. Sweeping roller brush must be adjusted depending on its wear. Sweeping roller brush ground contact surface should be in the range from 60 to 120 mm (FIG. 5.1A). The pressure can be set individually depending on the degree of ground contamination.
After adjustment, lower the sweeper on the jockey wheels and check the width of the roller ground contact surface, adjust again if necessary. Pay attention to levelling of the sweeper by means of the central connector. While adjusting sweeping roller brush pressure make sure the contact surface is uniform along on the entire length of the roller.
After adjusting the waste tank, check that all fixing bolts and securing elements are properly fitted. As sweeping roller brush wears, monitor the setting of the waste tank. 5.3 ADJUSTING THE SIDE BRUSH All adjustments of the side brush head are performed after adjusting sweeping roller brush and waste tank, depending on the amount of dirt on the surface being swept and head wear.
Page 62
To set the brush pressure (FIG. 5.4A), remove R-clip (3) and change the pin (2) mounting hole in the bracket (1) and secure with R-clip (3). Longitudinal tilting of the head can be set in three positions. This involves changing the position of retaining bolt (1) in head bracket holes (2).
To change the lateral tilt angle, unscrew retaining bolt (2), loosen bolt (3) and turn bracket (1) to the right or left side so as to place bolt (2) in the corresponding hole. Tighten bolt (3). FIG. 5.7A Side brush drive flow regulator selective control valve (1)- oil flow regulator;...

5.6 SPRINKLER SYSTEM MAINTENANCE Maintenance of the sprinkler system consists in periodic inspecting the water system and cleaning (FIG. 5.10A) of water filters (2) and (3). Before first use, check sprinkler operation, especially the setting of spray nozzles. Nozzles should be positioned so that during sweeper operation water is sprayed through the slit, perpendicularly to the sweeping direction.
5.7 HYDRAULIC SYSTEM OPERATION The duties of the operator connected with the hydraulic system include: • checking tightness of cylinder and hydraulic connections, • checking technical condition of hydraulic lines and quick couplers; DANGER Do not repair hydraulic system on your own. All hydraulic system repairs must be performed only by suitably qualified personnel.
