The utility machine City Ranger 2250
The City Ranger 2250 is an outdoor utility machine with a complete range of special attachments
that allows you to work outdoors, all year round. Sweeping and vacuuming in spring and autumn,
mowing grass and lawn-edge cutting in the summer, sweeping snow, and spreading gravel and
sand in the winter. The City Ranger 2250 is market tested, eective and professional. Designed
for versatility, this user-friendly machine is extremely reliable and exceedingly comfortable to
operate.
Quick-shift of attachments
Attachments can be changed quickly and easily. The new attachment system has a single lock
and release lever. Use the lever – one click and the attachment is on. In less than a minute. Hoses
and couplings are hidden (thus well-protected) and the hydraulics and water supply, power and
vacuum hoses connect automatically.
Maintenance
Open a single side cover to check the water, oil, air lter and battery. No need to remove
attachments.
Environment
The City Ranger 2250 is environmentally sound – today and tomorrow. Quiet when operating
and practically vibration-free. It is designed for use with an exhaust particle lter and catalytic
converter, and can use biological hydraulic oil. The machine is far less harmful to the environment
than the minimum levels set by the EU.
Comfort
The City Ranger 2250 is an ergonomically-designed outdoor utility machine. The cab is
spacious, with good visibility on all sides, and the entry-opening is low and wide. The wheel
and seat are fully-adjustable to suit the operator. The seat has suspension (with optional
pneumatic suspension) and is very comfortable. All the operating controls – including the
joystick for controlling the attachments – are positioned optimally for the operator. Optional air
conditioning.

1.1 Safety
Make sure no one is standing close to
the machine while it is in use
Make sure that no one is near the machine
while it is in use as there is a danger of
crushing.
Attention
As it is articulated, the rear end of the
machine swings out when turning. Make
sure that no one is standing near the
machine while it is in use. (Picture 1)
Turn the steering wheel carefully
The City Ranger 2250 is articulated – it
turns sharply, immediately. (Picture 2)
Do not inhale exhaust gas
Engine vehicle exhaust gas is hazardous to
health and can even be fatal. If the machine
is run in a conned space, the exhaust gas
must be adequately ventilated out of the
room or area, using an exhaust hose, for
example. Otherwise doors and windows
must be opened, to allow fresh air inside.
Avoid roll-overs
Do not drive the machine in a place where it
can slide, tip or roll. Do not drive on slopes
with an incline of more than 10°. (Picture 3)
Make sure there is no one close to the machine when
it is running
Other hazards
There may be other circumstances and
situations than those mentioned above
where it may be dangerous to use the City

To drive at full speed, the throttle should be moved all the way forwards.

Adjustment of the heel support
The heel support on the drive pedal is adjustable to get the optimum drive position for the foot.
The spring pin is pulled back, the heel support is turned in the desired position and locked again with the spring pin. (Picture 2)
Advice when driving on a steep slope
Users of City Ranger 2250 have reported that, from time to time, they feel that the machine does not accelerate properly when
driving up an incline. The machine is designed to drive on an incline of no more than 22%. However, from experience we know that,
under certain conditions, this machine can in fact cope with a steeper incline. Nilsk has the following advice when driving up a steep
incline:
· Set the throttle to min. 2400.
· Then regulate the speed of the machine using the foot pedal.
· The function of the foot pedal can be compared to changing gear up or down. The more you press down on the pedal, the higher the
gear - the less you press down on the pedal, the lower the gear.
