The central brush Part. 2 Fig. 4 is the main machine component for loading the dust and waste into the
collection bin. It is available in various degrees of hardness and bristle types, depending on the type of
material to be collected up and on the type of floor. It is height adjustable in case of wear (See Chapter 13).
IMPORTANT: do not pick up cords, wires, packaging straps, sticks, etc., longer than 25 cm as these
could wrap around the centre and side brushes and damage them.
FILTER SYSTEM:
During operation, the filter system ensures that the machine does not raise dust in the surrounding areas. It
consists of six cartridge filters Part. 1 Fig. 5. The filter system can be disengaged by pulling knob Part. 1, seen
in Fig. 6.
IMPORTANT: Disengage the filter system when passing with the machine over wet or very damp
areas to prevent dampening and therefore deteriorating the paper filters.
DUST SEALS:
See Part. 4 Fig. 6. These seals surround the central brush and are very important for ensuring good machine
operation, making possible as they do the suction effect. Frequently check to make sure they are in good
condition.
COLLECTION BIN:
The container or collection bin Part. 1 Fig. 7, made of resistant plastic, holds all the material picked up by the
central brush and the filter dust. It can be easily removed thanks to a wheeled frame Part. 2 Fig. 7.
IMPORTANT: container emptying must always be done with the motor shut off. Wear gloves and
possibly a face mask to protect the airways from dust (always present in this operation).
