Readjusting the brush rollers
The height of the brush rollers can be adjusted to obtain the best possible cleaning results of
the area to be swept and to effectively exploit the efficiency of the brush rollers.
The brush rollers need to be lowered once the sweeping performance starts to wane due to
wear and tear of the brush rollers, or if the area to be swept is not level (bumpy).
If pushing the sweeper seems to become harder and you can hear the brush rollers
scratching the ground, you will have to raise the brush rollers to ensure you use the sweeper
ergonomically and to prevent the brush rollers from wearing prematurely.
On principle, the brush rollers should be set to ensure that they touches the ground at slight
pressure.

Filter cleaning
To consistently attain the best possible cleaning results, you must always clean the
lamellar filter prior to emptying the dust bin.
Likewise, you should also clean the filter if particularly dusty areas are swept, or if
dust is whirled up during sweeping.
The sweeper has been equipped with a mechanically operated vibrating device to
clean the lamellar filter.
To remove stubborn dirt, you should use a brush to clean off the filter or take out the
filter and gently knock off the dirt.
