5. Starting the single brush machine
Before starting the single brush machine read this operating manual thoroughly and follow all safety
instructions.
Check to be sure that the electrical values specified on the nameplate and in the operating manual are
consistent with the local power supply. The appliance may only be used with an electrical power supply which
conforms to the local safety regulations and requirements of the electrical power supplier.
Plug the connect cable into the socket provided in the building. Set the handle at an inclined angle, which is
comfortable for working, by pulling the positioning lever (2) and fixing it in place.
Before starting the appliance, test the direction of rotating of the single brush machine
outside the danger area without the brush
The direction of rotating looking at the appliance must be counterclockwise.
Then snap the cleaning tool into place and check the appliance for e.g. imbalance, vibration, unwanted noise,
etc..
The appliance is ready for use, if no faults have been detected and if there is no abnormal noise.
5.1.Switching the appliance on and off

5.2.Working with the single brush machine
Always work in such a way, that the cable cannot be run over.
Running over the power supply cable with the brush or cleaning tool rotating
could result in a fatal accident!
Single brush machines are so called “self-propelled” appliances, i.e. they are controlled by slight
raising or lowering the handle fixed in the working position by the control lever.
To go to the left:press down on the handle bar slightly
To go to the right:lift the handle bar slightly.
5.3.Adjusting the handle
The ease of operation, i.e. the resistance of the handle’s rotating joint,
can be adjusted as required.
To do this, first undo the lock nut at the end of the set screw using an
SW 13 spanner (To do this, hold the set screw with an SW5 Allen
key).
If the handle is difficult to loosen, turn the set screw anticlockwise
using an SW5Allen key.
If the free-play of the handle is too large, turn the set screw clockwise.
Then retighten the lock nut firmly.
5.4.Mains supply cable
Check the mains supply cable for damage each time before the equipment is used. Also check the single brush
machine for traces of leaking oil from the gears before and after use. Try out the single brush machine outside the
