If you use the machine without waste
container/water tank with the front
brush roller, a balance weight must be
attached to the rear of the vehicle for
driving on public roads as a counter
weight.
–
Set the motor speed to "eco", the lower
level of the range.
Note:
Removing the waste container/fresh water
tank will increase the driving stability and
the driver's view.
