Introduction

3
The Suction Sweeper is eective everywhere – on paths and
pavements, verges, driveways, outdoor and indoor parking
areas, etc. Two optional side-brushes increase the Suction
Sweeper’s clearing width to 2,100 mm.
Dust is cleaned away in two stages using the Suction
Sweeper. Two water-sprayers dampen dust before it is sucked
up. The well-known Nilsk-Egholm rotary lter system binds
even the nest of dust to the water inside the hopper. A
robust and quiet unit, the Suction Sweeper is available with
two dierent sweeping solutions.
a) Sweeper section with two brushes. Can be upgraded to
solution b) at an authorized Nilsk-Egholm dealer.
b) Sweeper section with two brushes, with an optional third
and/or fourth side-brush/brushes.
Emptying the collection tank is easy and done from the
comfort of the cab seat.
The Suction Sweeper can be attached or detached quickly
and easily, using the specially designed moveable frame. The
brushes and hopper can be attached to the frame. This handy
design feature means they can be smartly stored away too!
Optional brush-speed regulator
The brush speed can be controlled in dry conditions, slowing
the brushes to prevent dust spreading.

1.1 Safety
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 1)
Tyre pressure
The tyre pressure must be checked and adjusted to 1.5 bar
(22 psi) when the Suction Sweeper is attached. Lower tyre
pressure increases the risk of roll-overs.
Emptying the hopper
Before emptying the hopper, make sure that:
A) The machine is rmly placed on a level surface and is not
“angled”
B) That there is sucient space for the open back cover.
Make sure the hopper is secured
Check the hopper is rmly attached to the
machine. (Picture 2)
Prevent people from standing close to
the Suction Sweeper
Make sure there is no one close to the
machine when it is in use.
Attention!
As it is articulated, the rear end of the machine swings out
when turning. Make sure that no one is near the machine
while it is in use as there is a danger of crushing.
Risk of impact when using the lever
Do not let go of the lever when the hopper tank is lowered
as that is dangerous. Keep a good grip of the lever until the
hopper is on the machine. (Picture 3)
Risk of crushing
Make sure no one gets their ngers trapped when the
hopper is lowered after tipping. (Picture 4)

2.3 Checks before start-up
1. Topping-up the water
It is important the water tank is lled up before starting.
(Picture 1)
The water level can be read on the right side of the hopper.
(Picture 2)
A water-sprayer is positioned in the hopper (Picture 3)
and a water-sprayer is positioned in front of each brush.
(Picture 4)
Two water-sprayers have enough water for approx. 1 ¾
hours of use. Four water-sprayers have enough water for
1 ¼ hours of use. If only the water-sprayer in the hopper is
used, then it will have enough water for four hours of use.

Checking the rotary lter and turbine. (Picture 1)
Remove any dirt before starting. (See Section 3.1)
3. Checking the rotary lter water-sprayer.
1. Engage the handbrake.
2. Turn the ignition key to position 1 WITHOUT starting the
machine. (Picture 2)
3. Switch the rear PTO ON. (Picture 3)
4. Check water comes out of the water-sprayer below the
lter in the hopper tank. (Picture 4)
4. Adjusting brushes
Correctly adjusted brushes last longer. Make sure the
brushes do not press too hard against the surface being
cleaned.
(See Section 2.8)
Attention!
The Suction Sweeper must not be used if the water-
sprayer in the hopper is not working.
Stop the turbine immediately if there is imbalance/
vibration in the lter or in the turbine.
A low-level switch has been tted which automatically
stops the water pump if the water tank is empty.

Avoid roll-overs
Check tyre pressure
The tyre pressure must be checked and adjusted to 1.5 bar
(22 psi) when the Suction Sweeper is attached.
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 1)
Transport lock
The transport lock prevents the attachment from lowering
during transport.
How to use the transport lock: Move the handle to the
uppermost position. Lift the A-frame by moving the
joystick up. As the A-frame lifts, the transport lock is
automatically activated. (Picture 2)
How to unlock the transport lock: Unhitch the handle
and lift the A-frame to the uppermost position. The
attachment can now be lowered again. (Picture 3)

2.4 Suction Sweeper start-up
1. Start the machine
2. Switch ON the rear PTO (suction begins). Water for the
rotary lter starts to ow when the rear PTO is switched
on. (Picture 1)
3. Switch ON the front PTO (brushes rotate). (Picture 1)
4. Move throttle to full. (Picture 1)
5. Lower the front brushes by moving the joystick down.
(Picture 2)
6. Engage the weight distribution using the red button on
the joystick. (Picture 2) The front brushes will now adjust
to ground conditions. To adjust the weight distribution:
Read the operator’s manual for the basic City Ranger 2200
machine.
7. If the two front water-sprayers are to be used, then switch
them on using the “Water front brushes” switch. (Picture 1)
2.5 Using side-brushes (optional
equipment)
The joystick controls the side-brushes’ movements.
A side-brush is automatically lowered as it moves out from
the machine.
Using right side-brush
The side-brush follows the joystick’s sideways movement.
Moving the joystick to the right moves the side-brush out.
Moving the joystick to the left moves the side-brush back in.
Using left side-brush
To switch over to the left side-brush, push the black
button on the joystick (Picture 2) and move the joystick
at the same time. The side-brush follows the joystick’s
sideways movement. Moving the joystick to the left moves
the side-brush out. Moving the joystick to the right moves
the side-brush back in.

2.7 Emptying the hopper
The hopper can empty directly onto the ground or tip into
a container.
Tipping height 130 cm.
Attention!
Before emptying the hopper, make sure that:
A) The machine is on a level surface, and that it is not
“angled”.
B) That there is sucient space for the opened back cover.
1. STOP the front and rear PTO. (Picture 1)
2. Drive to the nearest disposal area.
3. Begin emptying by using the lower joystick to tip the
hopper. (Picture 2)
4. Lower the joystick once the hopper is empty (the hopper
will move back to its normal position). Release the handle
when the hopper is back in position. The hopper is tted
with a hose-break valve, which will close if the hopper
lowers too quickly. If this happens, raise the hopper a little
again and then lower it slowly. (Picture 3)
Attention!
The rear hatch must not be opened until suction has
ceased. Otherwise there is a risk of personal injury. The
suction continues to run for approx. 15 s after the turbine
has been switched o (PTO rear).
There is a risk of crushing while the hopper is being
emptied.
Make sure the hopper is completely lowered after
emptying!

2.8 Emptying the hopper for water
The water in the hopper can be emptied by unscrewing
the drain plug. (Picture 1)
2.9 Protect the Suction Sweeper against ice
during the winter
1. Pouring a solution of water and anti-freeze into the
water tank – the same solution as if protecting a sprinkler
system against ice.
2. Turning the turbine and water supply to the front
brushes on, the liquid runs through the whole system and
protects it against ice.
