Designation
Sweeper is designed to sweep up and at the same time pick up impurities from surfaces such
as: roads, squares and sidewalks covered with asphalt, concrete or paved. Sweeper can be used to
sweep into one direction, upon previous dismounting of container for impurities, e.g. for winter
maintenance of roads, squares, sidewalks. Using the machine for any other purpose shall be
considered as misuse.
Sweeper is not recommended to be used for treating surfaces, on which such objects are
found: cut pieces of ropes, threads, hair, etc. The abovementioned impurities can cause embroiling
of these onto sweeps, what in consequence will lead to impairing the machine's overall capacity.
NOTE:
Do not use the machine for purposes other than abovementioned.
Well-proven design and quality materials ensure high reliability and durability of SaMASZ
machines.
