– A warning tone is sounded while revers-
ing.
– The accelerator pedal can be used to
vary the driving speed infinitely.
– Avoid pressing the pedal suddenly as
this may damage the hydraulic system.
– In the event of power loss on inclined
surfaces, slightly reduce the pressure
on the accelerator pedal.
– Change the driving direction only after
the vehicle has come to a halt.
Brakes
Release the accelerator pedal, the ma-
chine brakes automatically and stops.
Note
The braking effect can be supported by
pressing the foot-brake.
Driving over obstacles
Warning
Raise the side-brushes and the suction
opening before overtaking hurdles.
Hurdles up to 150 mm in height:
Bypass the hurdle slowly and carefully
at an angle of 45°.
Hurdles more than 150 mm in height:
Only drive over these obstacles using a
suitable ramp.
Warning
Risk of damage! Ensure that the vehicle
does not get stuck up.
Sweeping mode
Danger
Risk of injury! If the bulk waste flap is open,
stones or gravel may be flung forwards by
the roller brush. Make sure that this does
not endanger persons, animals or objects.
Warning
Do not sweep up packing strips, wire or
similar objects as this may choke up the
suction canal.
Warning
To avoid damaging the floor, do not contin-
ue to operate the sweeping machine in the
same position.
Note
To achieve an optimum cleaning result, the
driving speed should be adjusted to take
specific situations into account.
Note
During operation, the waste container
should be emptied at regular intervals.
Setting the motor rpm
Set the idle running for the motor rpm
setting to 1600-1800 1/min.
(see console ).
Note
The motor rpm can be called via the multi-
functional display.
Switching on the working hydraulics
Turn on the working hydraulics (1st lev-
el).
(see operating panel).
Switch on the suction turbine and the
side-brushes (2nd step).

English
Note
Only driving is possible if the working hy-
draulics is switched off.
Adjusting the side-brush speed
Set the side-brush speed on the speed
regulator.
(see operating panel).
– In clock-wise direction: Side-brush
speed increases
– Anti-clockwise direction: Side-brush
speed decreases
Turn on/off the spray water
Press spray water button.
(see console ).
Spray water for side-brushes and suction
opening gets activated.
Note
The function of the spray-water pump is dis-
played on a yellow indicator lamp, see mul-
ti-functional display.
If the tank is empty, the yellow indicator
lamp goes off.
Switch-off spray water.
Fill the water reservoir.
Regulate the water flow to the side-
brushes.
Adjust the water flow to the side-brush-
es using the regulation valve.
– In clock-wise direction: Water flow in-
creases
– Anti-clockwise direction: Water flow de-
creases
Note
There is an accessory with 2 regulation
valves for separately controlling the water
flow to both the sides.
Water circulation system
The applicance is fitted with a water circula-
tion system for increasing the duration of
usage (fresh water reservoir). In the water
circulation system, the water from the
waste container is guided to the suction
opening and thus circulated. Further, it is
also possible to add fresh water.
Fill the waste container with water up to
the end of the front slant. To suck in
leaves, fill lesser quantity of water in the
waste container.
Set the lever for recycling to ON.
Regulate additional supply of fresh wa-
ter to the suction opening using the le-
ver for suction opening.
Switch on the suction turbine; start
cleaning work.
After finishing operations, switch off the
suction turbine approx. 30 seconds after
the suction opening has got raised. This
will prevent water from leaking when the
appliance has been switched off.
Every time you empty the waste con-
tainer, rinse the sieve in the waste con-
tainer using the water hose and clean
the space behind the sieve.
Set the lever for recycling to OFF while
operating without water circulation.
Operating without water circulation sys-
tem
When the appliance is switched off,
make sure the lever for recycling is set
to OFF because otherwise the hoses
leading to the suction opening will get
blocked.
The sieve and the space behind the
sieve must be cleaned every time you
empty the waste container even if you
are operating the appliance without wa-
ter circulation.
Raise/lower side-brushes
4-brush system:
Press the toggle switch downward. The
side-brushes will be lowered.
(see console ).
Press the toggle switch upward. Side
brushes lift up.
2-brush system:
