PREPARATION (UNPACKING)
After removing the outer packaging, remove the machine from the pallet; this operation can be done in two
ways:
A) Take a hook and 4 tie-rods of suitable lifting capacity for the weight of the machine (shown on the CE
plate). Lift the motor bonnet and secure the four eyebolts or hooks in the threaded housings (the lifting hooks
are inside the collection bin Part. B FIG. 1 together with the side brushes and instruction manuals); secure all
four straps to their respective lifting hooks Part. A Fig. 1 and with the aid of a fork lift truck or bridge crane
(suitable for weight of the machine), lift this off the pallet and rest it on the floor very slowly.
ATTENTION:
THE MACHINE CAN ONLY BE LIFTED WHEN ALL FOUR STRAPS HAVE BEEN SECURED TO THEIR
RESPECTIVE EYEBOLTS (M10 EYEBOLTS).
B) Position a sloping surface (having a load-bearing capacity suitable for the weight of the machine) close
up to the narrow side of the pallet. This must be at least 1,5 m long (so as not to damage the rubber dust seals)
and 1 m wide. Remove the pieces of wood around the wheels and release the parking brake Part. 1 Fig. 2,
pressing this so as to release the retention lever. At this point, simply push the machine onto the chute. This
operation must be performed without anyone in front of the machine and on a large flat surface.
At the end of the unpacking operation, remove and keep the eyebolts and fit the right side brush Part. 7 Fig. 2
and, If necessary, the left side brush as shown in page 13.
IMPORTANT: All the materials remaining after the unpacking operation must be carefully disposed of
by the user, following applicable regulations.
ATTENTION:
MAKE SURE THAT THE MACHINE PROTECTION DEVICES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND PROPERLY
FITTED. IN THE EVENT OF FAULTS OR MISSING PARTS, DO NOT START UP THE MACHINE AND

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).

1 - Check the level of the battery solution and if necessary top up with distilled water.
2 - Make sure the connector Part. 1 Fig. 13 is well inserted in the socket Part. 2 Fig. 13.
SWL R1000 ST/SW R 8300 SC
Read carefully the Engine User Manual attached to this machine booklet and follow some simple instructions:
$Check the level of oil in the engine and top up, if low, wearing protection gloves ( possibly nitrile gloves
with cotton inside) the oil sump (from 5,5 hp-3,75 kw) contains about 5hg of oil. The recommended oil
for temperate climate is 10w-30.To protect engine a particular device stops the engine by switching on if
oil is absent or not enough; it is therefore necessary checking the oil level very often.
$Refuel with switched off and cold engine only; Unlead petrol is strongly advised.
ATTENTION:
KEEP FUEL OUT OF CHILDREN’S REACH , IN A DRY AND AIRY PLACE, FAR FROM HEAT
SOURCES
IMPORTANT: Fuel tank must be fit for the purpose and well cleaned. This will grant you a good and
long lasting of the petrol engine filter. Please use a tank suitable to use up fuel in max 2/3 months
in order to have fresh fuel all the time.

CAPITOLO 12
CORRECT USE AND ADVICES
IMPORTANT: Before starting work, make sure there are no strings, plastic or metal wires or long strips of
cloth, sticks, power leads, etc. on the floor as theY are hazardous and could damage the dust seals and brushes.
These must be removed before starting work with the machine.
&Be very careful when driving over rails, door runners, ets. These can cause damage to dust seals. Drive
over them very slowly.
&Avoid driving over puddles of water. In the presence of damp surfaces, close the suction by means of
knob Part. 1 Fig. 6 located to the right of the operator, alongside the central brush start lever.
&In the presence of large or lightweight objects (leaves, cigarette boxes etc.) lift the front flap by
pressing the flap-lift pedal with the heel of your left foot Part. 1 Fig. 9.
&If the surface to be cleaned is very dirty in terms of quantity and quality of the material or dust to be
picked up, first of all go over the area "roughly" without paying too much attention to the result. Then
with a clean bin and the filters well shaken, go over it again. This way, the desired effect will be
achieved.
&Subsequently, if the machine is used regularly and properly, such "rough" cleaning will no longer be
required.
&The side brush must only be used for cleaning edges, profiles, corners, etc. It must be raised
(disengaged) immediately after use so it does not lift up dust and also because results achieved with the
side brush engaged are always inferior to those obtained with the central brush alone.
&For good results, empty the container regularly and keep the filters clean, shaking them with the tools
provided.
CHAPTER 13
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION: ALL OPERATIONS MUST BE PERFORMED WITH COLD AND SWITCHED OFF
ENGINE.
CLEANING THE DUST FILTERS:
Every 40 / 70 working hours or whenever necessary, check the dust filters Part. 1 Fig. 14. Remove them from
housing, loosen the filter-pressing blocks Part. 2 Fig. 14 and clean the filters by, first of all, banging them
on the floor (not violently), keeping the perforated side towards the floor. For more thorough cleaning, use a
compressed-air gun and blow from outside towards the inside, as shown in figure 14. When refitting the filters,
always remember to replace the black seal Part. 3 Fig. 14 on the bottom of the filter.
Make sure that the filters are always in good condition and, whenever necessary, replace them.
DUST SEALS:
Every 40 / 70 working hours, check the condition of the dust seals Part. 1 (movable) and Part. 2 (3 fixed
seals) Fig. 15 surrounding the central brush Part. 2 Fig. 4. Whenever necessary, replace these.
IMPORTANT: By replacing the seals make sure the side seals (the shortest one on the right and on
the left. in total 2) are raised off the ground of about 2 mm.
CENTRAL BRUSH:
Part. 2 Fig. 4. Every 50 / 80 working hours, or whenever necessary, check the condition of the central brush,
especially if you have picked up pieces of string, wire, etc.
To remove such items from the brush:
- Remove the bin Part. 2 Fig. 7.
- Kneel down and inspect the central brush under the machine. Wearing gloves and a face mask to
protect the airways, remove any pieces of string or wire wrapped around the central brush. The 4 hooks

ADJUSTMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS
CENTRAL BRUSH ADJUSTMENTS:
If the machine starts cleaning in a faulty manner or leaves dirt around, it will have to be adjusted and lowered
as followed:
- Position lever Part. 1 Fig. 16 so that the central brush is raised.
- Loosen screw Part. 2 Fig. 16.
- Lower the adjuster Part. 3 Fig. 16 by 3/4 mm or by the desired distance.
- Secure the adjuster by tightening screw Part. 2 Fig. 16
- Position lever Part. 1 fig. 16 above the adjuster Part. 3 fig. 16.
- The central brush can be adjusted until the adjuster Part. 3 fig. 16 reaches the end of stroke; after
this, the brush must be replaced.
IMPORTANT: To ensure the central brush is correctly adjusted, measure its "Track" as follows:
- After adjustments, start the machine up and, and without moving either forwards or backwards, leave it
standing in the same place for at least 10 / 15 sec. with the central brush lowered.
- Turn off the engine, raise the central brush and move the machine forwards manually until the mark left
on the floor by the rotation of central brush is visible, as shown in Fig. 17.
IMPORTANT: The width of the track must not be under 4 cm.
SIDE BRUSH ADJUSTMENTS:
When the side brush Part. 1 Fig. 18 is no longer able to convey dirt to the central brush, the height of the side
brush will have to be adjusted as follows:
- Keeping the side brush raised turn anticlockwise the register Part. 3 fig. 8.
IMPORTANT: This operation must be performed with the engine switched off.
COLLECTION BIN:
Every 50 / 60 working hours or whenever necessary, wash the collection bin Part. 1 Fig. 7 using warm water
and, if necessary, common detergent. This will prevent any bacteria build-up (wear rubber gloves).
!GENERAL RULES
To ensure a good machine functioning and life-span, keep both the outer bodywork and the inside of
the machine, under the bonnets, clean by using jets of compressed air (perform this operation with
the engine off and cold).

ATTENTION:
When checking or replacing the motor oil, always wear protectives gloves, if possible made of nitrile
with cotton lining; Do not discard the used oil into the environment as this is a pollution hazard.
Dispose of the used oil through legally prescribed channels Carefully read the attached motor
instruction booklet and always:
1 - Check the level of the oil every 5 work hours.
2 - First oil change after 5 work hours. The sump contains about 5 hg of oil. The oil recommended for
temperature climates is 10W-30 multigrade for petrol engines. If the machine is operating outside the
temperature zone, determine the right oil by referring to the motor booklet. When changing oil, use the
special oil drain pipe.
3 - Subsequent oil changes every 40/50 work hours.
4 - Clean the motor air cartridge every 25 hours or before if necessary. Replace if necessary (see motor
booklet).
IMPORTANT: The motor of the sweeper feature an OIL-ALERT system. This prevents motor start up
in the absence or if the oil level is low.
