Stopping the machine
1.
To stop the machine, release the pedal (20, Fig. B).
To stop the machine quickly, also push the service 
brake pedal (26, Fig. B).
In case of emergency, press the emergency 
push-button (12, Fig. B) to immediately stop the 
machine. To disengage the safety switch (12), turn it 
in the direction indicated by the arrow.
2.
Turn the ignition switch (18, Fig. B) to “0” and remove 
the key.
3.
Engage the parking brake by pressing the brake 
pedal (26, Fig. B) and by activating the brake lock 
control lever (19).
MACHINE OPERATION
1.
Avoid stopping for a long time with the machine in the 
same position and the brooms rotating: this could 
create unwanted marks on the floor.
2.
To collect light and bulky waste materials, lift the front 
skirt by activating the pedal (25, Fig. B); do not keep 
pushing onto the lever for a long time in order not to 
reduce the suction capability of the machine.
3.
For the machine proper operation, the dust filter must 
be as clean as possible. To clean it while sweeping, 
proceed as follows:
Lift the main broom by means of the lever (24, Fig. 
B) to stop the suction.
Press the filter-shaker switch (14, Fig. B) at short 
intervals.
Then, lower the main broom to restart the suction, 
and resume operation.
While working, repeat the operation every 10 
minutes (depending on the dustiness of the area 
to be cleaned).
4.
The hopper (4, Fig. C) should be emptied after each 
working period and whenever is full.
HOPPER DUMPING
1.
The maximum dumping height of the hopper is 1,380 
mm (Fig. U).
2.
To empty the hopper, drive the machine near the 
dustbin and proceed as follows:
Lift the side and main brooms;
Close the suction by means of the lever (17, Fig. 
B);
Press the filter-shaker switch (14, Fig. B).
3.
Keep people far from the machine and especially 
from the hopper (4, Fig. C).
4.
Press both the enabling switch (1, Fig. B) and the 
hopper lifting switch (15) to lift the hopper (1, Fig. T) 
up to the desired position.
5.
Press both the enabling switch (1, Fig. B) and the 
hopper (2, Fig. U) overturning switch (16, Fig. B) and 
discharge all the debris in the dustbin (1. Fig. U).
6.
To bring the hopper back to its original position 
(horizontal position), press the enabling switch (1, 
Fig. B) while pressing the hopper overturning switch 
(16. Fig. B).
WARNING!
When operating on wet grounds, it is 
necessary to operate the lever (17, Fig. B) 
and turn the suction off to prevent the dust 
filter from being damaged.
NOTE
This operation can also be performed when the 
machine is moving.
NOTE
When the dust filter is obstructed and/or the 
hopper is full, the machine cannot collect dust 
and debris.
WARNING!
Always carry out this operation on a level 
ground to avoid machine unbalance.
WARNING!
When lifting and emptying the hopper (4, 
Fig. C), keep the parking brake engaged 
with the pedal and lever (26 and 19, Fig. B).
WARNING!
The hopper (2, Fig. U) can be overturned 
only after having lifted it at a minimum 
height of 270 mm.
