3 Sweeper description
3.1 Sweeper description
The suction sweeper is driven by an internal combustion engine.
Sweeping is done with two side brushes which convey the refuse to the
two sweeping rollers that are mounted at 90 degrees to the direction of
motion. The rollers throw the refuse overhead in the rear dirt collector.
The dust that is collected by the sweeping rollers is kept in a lamellar
filter in the machine by the dust extraction.
The lamellar filter can, in turn, be cleaned by a manually actuated filter
vibrator.
