EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
ONLY FIGHT FIRES WITH POWDER FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
The machine must be cleaned by persons who have received proper instruction for the purpose, who know how to cut off
the sources of energy and who know the characteristics of the machine so as not to find themselves in a hazardous situation.
Clean the machine coverings, the panels and commands with cloths soaked in water or a detergent solution.
Solvents such as petrol, alcohol, etc. must not be used.
Call in specialised personnel to clean the electrical components. Said personnel should use products that are not corrosive
and are anyway suitable for electrical circuits.
Specialised personnel with thorough knowledge of the machine and its components must be called in to carry out
maintenance operations.
Any maintenance and cleaning operation must be carried out with the machine off, with all the mechanisms still, after the
hot sections have cooled down and with the battery disconnected.
When using compressed air guns for cleaning, protect the eyes and hair.
STORAGE THE MACHINE
If the machine is not used for a long period, it is essential:
- to keep the machine in a protected place
- to clean the machine inside and outside
- to keep the brushes raised to prevent the bristles getting malfunctioning
- to keep the dirt container down.
- to lock the machine in place with the parking brake
- to remove the key
- to remove the battery connector
PRECAUTIONS FOR THE SAFETY OF OPERATORS AND TECHNICIANS
- The machine must not be used by non-authorised personnel who have not been trained to use it properly or by people
who are under the influence of substances that could alter their nervous reflexes (alcohol, psycho pharmaceuticals, drugs
etc.)
- Do not use the machine in inflammable areas or where there is the danger of explosions
- Move the machine very slowly when the dirt container is raised.
- Do not collect material that is alight or anything else that could cause a fire.
(e.g. lit cigarettes).
- Do not remove protections or guards when the machine is in operation.
- Operate the machine from the driving position.
- Do not use the machine to clean objects.
- When maintaining the machine do not wear loose-fitting or unbuttoned clothing.
- A safety strut must be placed on the raising cylinder for any maintenance operation with the dirt container raised.
- Do not start to perform maintenance operations with parts in movement.
- Protect eyes and hair when using compressed air or water guns for cleaning the machine.
- Use devices to raise the machine that are adequate to bear the weight of the machine itself.
- Do not cause flames or sparks around the machine.
- Disconnect the battery cables before working on the electrical circuit.
-Avoid contact with battery acid, be careful of the hot parts: wait for them to cool down before starting work.
- Move carefully over uneven or crumbling paving and on slopes.
Do not exceed inclines of 15% in the direction of movement and inclines of 10% crossways to the direction of
movement.
- Pay attention when changing direction and or movement direction, slow down on bends to avoid tipping over.
Pay attention when raising the dirt container to empty it: the operation must be carried out on flat ground that is
not bumpy and brusque commands must not be given.
