Please read the Chapter "Safety Infor-
mation" prior to starting the vehicle to
ensure it is operated and used safely.
Your safety, and that of others, basical-
ly lies in your ability to control and oper-
ate the vehicle. Before using the

ence or subsequent owners. The oper-
ating manual contains all the most
important information regarding opera-
tion, maintenance and service.
Throughout this manual, texts which

Safety Information
1.2 General information
• In addition to the information provid-
ed in this operating manual, all the
legally applicable health and safety
provisions must be observed.
• Before starting up the vehicle for the
first time, read the operating manual
supplied with it thoroughly as well as
any separate manuals provided with
additional or attachment devices and
observe all the information during
work.
• The vehicle may only be operated,
serviced and repaired by personnel
trained by Hako technical experts.
• Particular attention should be paid to
the information regarding safety.
Technical expertise is the key to pre-
venting errors when operating the
equipment and ensuring trouble-free
operation.
• The operating manual must always
be kept at the operating location of
the vehicle and, as a result, should
kept in a safe place on the vehicle.
• If the equipment is sold or rented out,
these documents should be trans-
ferred to the new owner/operator.
The transfer should be confirmed!
• The warning labels attached to the
equipment provide important infor-
mation concerning safe operation.
Labels which are illegible or missing
must be replaced.
• Original spare parts must be used to
ensure safety.
1.3 Operating information
• Before starting the vehicle up for the
first time, the battery to be used must
be fully charged, properly, by imple-
menting the initial battery charge
routine. Please pay attention to the
operating manual provided with the
charging unit as well as the manual
from the battery manufacturer. Hako
assumes no liability for damage to
the battery caused by a fault when
the battery is charged for the first
time.
• Check the operational safety of the
vehicle each time before starting it
up! Clear any faults immediately!
• Before starting work, the operator
must be fully familiar with all adjust-
ment, operating and control ele-
ments as well as their respective
function! It is too late to do this when
the vehicle is actually in operation!
• Always wear heavy duty, non-slip
footwear when working with the vehi-
cle.
• The vehicle may only be driven and
the equipment used on those surfac-
es which have been approved by the

him.

8
Safety Information
• When using the vehicle, it is essen-
tial to pay attention to third parties,
especially children.
• Start driving immediately after
switching on the brush head drive
otherwise imprints of the brush could
be produced on the floor. Always
raise the brush head before driving
over thresholds.
• Only use cleaning agents suitable for
the vendor (non-foaming) and ob-
serve all the use, disposal and warn-
ing information provided by the
cleaning agent manufacturer.
• Never vacuum up any explosive flu-
ids, undiluted acids or solvents! Ex-
amples of these include gasoline,
paint thinner and heating oil, which
can form explosive gases or mix-
tures when swirled up with the vacu-
umed air, and also acetone,
undiluted acids and solvents if they
corrode materials in the vehicle.
• For safety reasons, the driver's seat
is equipped with a seat contact
switch. The vehicle can only be start-
ed when the operator is sitting on the
driver's seat. The function of the seat
contact switch must not be by-
passed.

ing up hazardous, inflammable or
explosive fluids, dust or substances.
• It is forbidden to use the vehicle in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
• It is forbidden to transport persons or
heavy objects.
• It is forbidden to tow machines or op-
erate as a trailer.

head must be raised. The style of
driving must be adapted to the local
conditions.
• The vehicle has been conceived for
use on level surfaces with a maxi-
mum gradient of 2%.
• Drive slowly on wet ground due to
the risk of skidding, particularly when
cornering. Drive especially slowly
when cornering while driving down-
hill.
• Only drive uphill on gradients up to
10% for maximally 1 minute and with
the utmost care.

spect of operational safety, within
the terms of the applicable accident
prevention laws, at reasonable inter-
vals (we recommend at least once a
year) and following modification or
repairs .
• Spare parts must comply with the
minimum technical requirements
stipulated by the manufacturer! This
is ensured by the use of original
spare parts.
• The vehicle and motors must be
switched off prior to cleaning or ser-
vicing it or to replacing parts.

The battery plugs (Fig. 7/1 and 2) on
the vehicle, batteries and stationary
chargers must be coded with the col-
ored coding pins (Fig. 7/3) according to
the battery and nominal voltage. The
connectors on the charger are coded at
the factory according to the charge
characteristic curve so that on changing
the charge characteristic curve (accord-
ing to the battery), the connector coding
must be changed.
Fig.7
Connector coding
Socket housing of the battery:
• Gray for wet batteries
• Green for maintenance-free gel bat-
teries
Connector body on the vehicle:
• Yellow for both battery types
Voltage coding
Insert the coding pin (Fig. 7/3) so that
the nominal voltage can be read
through the window in the housing.
Always select the same nominal volt-
age for the socket and connector.
The following three conditions must be
fulfilled for the complete system:
1. The voltage coding must be the
same for all connectors and sockets.
2. The color of the coding pin in the
vehicle is yellow.
3. The color of the coding pin in the
charger connector (vehicles without
built-in charger) complies with the
battery plug.
2.2.7 Initial battery charge
Before starting the vehicle up
