SC7740
YOUR SC7740 MACHINE HAS BEEN SHIPPED COMPLETE, BUT DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE WITHOUT
FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR OPERATION
1.
Connect and tighten battery cables.
2.
Fill the fule tank with REGULAR GRADE gasoline (Gasoline Model) and Commercial Petrolium Gas (LP
Model).
WARNING
Never fill the tank while the engine is running. Always be sure the gasoline container and sweeper are electrically
connected before pouring gasoline. This can easily be done by providing an insulated wire (permanently attached
to container) with a battery clip on the other end.
3.
Check engine crankcase oil level. Although properly lubricated at the factory, check before starting the
engine. No special break in oil is used; and recommended number of operating hours before the initial oil
change is the same as normal. After the first 50 operating hours, service must be performed on your
engine to ensure future high performance and trouble free operation. See Maintenance.
4.
Check radiator coolant level. Permanent type antifreeze is added at the factory to provide protec-
tion to approximately -35°F (37°C). To retain this protection level, always add ½ part water to ½ part
antifreeze.
5.
Check fluid level in hydraulic reservoir which is located in the engine compartment. The hydraulic reservoir
is full when fluid can be seen 1/3 of the way up in the sight glass on the front of the reservoir. To get an
accurate reading the hopper must be in the “DOWN” position. If fluid is required add Mobil Multi Purpose
ATS or equivelent Dexron III fluid only. Do not fill the reservoir mor than 1/3 of the way up the sight glass.
See Maintenance.
