Réglage brosse centrale
La brosse centrale est un composant fondamental pour le bon rendement de la
machine. Un réglage correct permettra d’obtenir rapidement d’excellents résultats.
La machine est fournie avec tous les réglages. Effectuer le réglage lorsque la brosse
est consommée.
Procéder comme suit :
•
Dévisser la molette (Fig.19).
•
Tourner le sélecteur dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d’une montre pour
bloquer le trou de fixation de la molette (Fig. 19).
•
Revisser la molette (Fig.19).
Remplacement - installation brosses latérales
Pour faciliter le transport, le brosses latérales ne sont pas installées sur la machine. Pour
installer les brosses latérales procéder de la façon suivante :
•
Soulever les brosses latérales. (Fig.30).
•
Dévisser la vis de l’arbre moteur brosse latérale (Fig.20).
•
Retirer la protection de la clavette.
•
Placer la brosse avec la bride sur l’arbre moteur (Fig.20).
•
Revisser la vis de blocage (Fig.20).
Réglage des brosses latérales
La fonction de la brosse latérale est de convoyer le matériau à récolter vers le centre de
la machine. La position optimale pour parvenir à ce but consiste à effleurer
le sol. Pour augmenter ou diminuer la pression de la brosse, procéder
comme suit :
•
Porter les brosses latérales en position de travail (Fig.21).
•
Desserrer les deux vis de réglage placées sous la molette
relève-brosse (Fig.22).
•
Régler manuellement la brosse dans la position désirée.
•
Serrer les vis de réglage (Fig.22).
•
Ramener les brosses latérales en position de repos.

-
ment ensures better quality cleaning in shorter times.
The machine is delivered correctly adjusted. The main brush therefore only needs further adjust-
ment when it becomes worn. Proceed as follows to adjust the main brush.
► Unscrew the knob (fig. 19).
► Turn the adjuster anti-clockwise until the knob fixing hole can be engaged (fig. 19).
► Screw the knob back in (fig. 19).
Replacing/installing the side brushes

Adjusting the side brushes
! WARNING!
Never operate the machine without the side brushes installed.
The side brushes direct dirt and debris towards the centre of the machine. The most efficient height
for this purpose is when the side brushes gently touch the floor. Proceed as follows to increase or
reduce the pressure of the side brushes on the floor, if necessary.
► Lower the side brushes into work position (fig. 21).
► Loosen the two locking screws under the brush lifting knob (fig. 22).
► Manually move the brush to the required position.
► Tighten the locking screws again (fig. 22).
► Return the brushes to idle position.
Replacing/installing the suction filter
! DANGER!
This operation must be performed with the machine switched off and the key removed.
The suction filter makes a major contribution to the efficiency of the whole machine.
Its correct maintenance keeps the machine at maximum efficiency at all times. If the sweeper begins
to raise dust as it sweeps, check the condition of the suction filter.
The suction filter can be cleaned in two ways.
Semiautomatic filter cleaning:
► This method provides a quick and easy way to keep the suction filter clean and ready for
work. Press and hold the filter shaker button for a number of seconds, then repeat four or
five times. On Petrol and Diesel versions, shut off suction with the suction control lever
before pressing the filter shaker button.
