Device Description
TTV 1100 7
3 Device Description
The Sweeping & Suction Machine is driven hydraulically by an internal
combustion engine.
Model TT/V 900 operates by using a pivotable side brush to convey the
sweepings to the two sweeping rollers arranged parallel to the direction
of motion. These project the sweepings overhead into the dust container
positioned behind it.
Optionally two side brushes may be installed. Model TT/E 1100 is
equipped with two pivotable side brushes. If necessary, the dust stirred
up by the sweeping rollers is caught by the dust suction unit in a lamel-
lar filter inside the machine. The lamellar filter is cleaned by an electri-
cally controlled filter cleaning device.
