2.2 DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES OF THE MAIN PARTS
2.2.1 DESCRIPTION
The sweeper – S32 - has been designed to clean flat and hard surfaces by means of a sweeping system and
suction of the dust into a suitable tank.
The traction system is based on oleodynamic engines fed by a pump which is driven by an endothermic
petrol or GPL engine.
The oleodynamic pump also feeds the engine of the central brush, the engine of the side brushes, the
oleodynamic actuators for the lifting and sink of the waste tank. The vacuum and the filter shaker engines
are fed by a battery supplied with the machine.
The sweeper is equipped with a side rotating brush (the left side brush is optional) which has to bring dust
into the central part of the machine. The main brush brings dust into the waste tank thanks to a suction
system. The machine must be used on dry or damp surfaces and can be equipped with a water system
which has to pull dust down.
Thanks to the dashboard the operator can control all the machine functions and a series of LEDs shows to
the operator the battery status or the errors detected by the electronic card.
The operator can control all the main functions of the machine and in particular:
¾start both the central and the side brushes;
¾start the dust pull down device (optional);
¾lift up or sink down of the waste dust;
¾open or close the flap set up in the front side of the machine;
¾start the vacuum engine;
¾start the filter shaker.
2.2.2 MAIN PARTS OF THE MACHINE
¾Zinc-plated steel or stainless steel frame;
¾RH rotating brush;
¾LH rotating brush (optional);
¾vacuum system to pick dust up;
¾one drive wheel;
¾two idle wheels;
¾steering wheel assy;
¾operator’s seat;
¾dust pull down device (optional).
FIORENTINI Co., taking the new CE safety rules into consideration, manufactures the machine following the
CE directives about safety and health. The high quality material, the high technology and FIORENTINI
experience guarantee the performance and the reliability of this machine .
Each machine is tested during the manufacturing process and the final check is done before the machine is
shipped out.
Important: before switching the machine off the operator must
¾sink the waste tank down;
¾lift the brushes up to avoid damages to the brushes bristles and decrease
their effectiveness.

2.3.2 USE OF THE MACHINE
Starting the machine.
Insert the key into the dashboard and turn it once clockwise. Wait until the pilot light shows the battery level.
Before using the sweeper please check the hydraulic oil level in the tank of the
hydraulic system. The oil level must be kept between the two notches of the level
indicator inside the engine bonnet (see picture 3). If the oil level is not sufficient,
fill it up. Before this operation, switch the machine off and remove the key from
the dashboard.

How to use the machine.
The operator can start the three functions of the machine by means of the three levers next to the driving seat. Make
reference to the scheme below for the explanation of the yellow sticker under the levers (see picture 9).
The operator has to pull the lever down in order to sink down
and start the rotation of the central and side brushes. Pulling
the lever up the hydraulic engines of the brushes stop and the
brushes return in their original position.
The operator has to pull the lever up in order to sink the waste
tank down. Pulling the lever down the tank returns in its original
position.
The operator has to pull the lever up to open the flap and pick
the dust up into the waste tank. Pulling the lever down the flap
closes.
Moving the lever towards the operator and hooking it, the main
brush lifts up. Moving the lever higher, the main brush goes
down.
