1.1 Intended use
The Weedbrush is designed to be used for work activities in public
green spaces in the city and municipality, at camping sites and at
holiday and amusement parks.
Related to the attached Weedbrush type, assembled onto the AllTrec
vehicle, the Weedbrush is only applicable for removing weed.
Be careful with semi-hardened surfaces, it is possible that parts of the
surface will also be blown away.
The Weedbrush sweeps the flat paved surfaces with steel brushes
under a certain pressure to remove the weeds between the joints of the
pavement.
The presence of sand and above-ground roots of the weeds are also
brushed away by the Weedbrush.
Use the Weedbrush only for the work activity given above.
The CE marking according to the system directive does not apply to
other work activities.
1.2 Non-intended use
You must not use the Weedbrush for:
•Working with gas storage tanks, gas extraction or other flammable
substances
•Use on unpaved or semi-paved surfaces
This can cause danger to the environment and bystanders.
