2.2.  DESCRIPTION AND COMPONENTS 

The RSW28 rider vacuum sweeper is designed for the care of flat surfaces through the process of brushing 
and collection of dirt and debris into an onboard waste hopper. The system of power is supplied by a series of 
batteries, which power all the motors and the electrical controls. 

 

By means of a rotating brush set in the front of the machine, dirt and debris is put to the middle of the machine. 
The main brush then moves dirt and debris into the waste hopper. This machine must be used on dry surfaces. 

 

From the seated position the operator can control the function of the machine from the steering column control 
panel.  There is also a battery level indicator on the control panel. 

 

Control panel functions: 

 

  Select forward or reverse 

  Throttle 

  Horn 

  On / off key switch

Each machine is inspected during the manufacturing process and the final quality check is done before 
shipping the machine.
