General safety 
instructions

Apart from the information contained 
in this manual, the generally 
applicable legal provisions for safety 
and prevention of accidents must be 
adhered to. Do not put this manual 
aside without having read it, even if 
you did already operate similar ground 
cleaning equipment before. Allow 
yourself the time to do so, in order 
to save time at a later moment. The 
operator has to use the machine in 
accordance to its intended fields of 
application. During driving operation, 
he has to take account of the local 
conditions and when working, he has 
to pay attention to other persons, 
in particular to children. Nobody is 
allowed to stay within the zone of 
danger.
The warning and instruction plates 
attached to the Admiral 36 give 
important advice about safe 
operation. Before starting to work, 
the operator has to check that the 
Admiral 36 

and its working 

implements are in proper and safe 

Caution! 

The protective cover of 

brushes/drive plates must only be 
removed for maintenance or transport 
purposes and with the motors being 
turned off. Do not perform cleaning 
work without the covers being shut 
and locked.
Machines that are not in perfect con-
dition must not be used.
It is indispensable to get acquainted 
with all attachments and controls, 
as well with their function, before 
operation begins. Once you have 
started to work, there will be no time 
to do so.

chine.

The machine may be used only on 
those areas as clearly specified by 
the owner or his authorized represen-
tative.
Never leave the machine unattended

and the machine is not protected 
against unintended movements. To 
prevent the machine from being used 
by unauthorized persons, the control 
key must be removed such the the 
travel drive is blocked.
When transporting the Admiral 36, 
shut down the motors of the working 
implements.
The operator has to use the machine 
in accordance to its intended fields of 
application. During driving operation, 
he has to take account of the local 
conditions, and when working, he has 
to pay attention to other persons, in 
particular to children.
Use only cleaning agents suitable for 

automatic machines (low foaming), 
and adhere to the instructions for use, 
disposal and precautions specified by 
the cleaning agent’s manufacturer. 

Caution! 

Never collect explosive 

fluids, undiluted acids and solvents! 
This includes e.g. gasoline, paint 
thinners or fuel oil, which – when 
penetrating the air being taken in – 
may form explosive vapors or 
mixtures; moreover acetone, undiluted 
acids and solvents if they should be 
aggressive to the material used for the 
machine components.
