Operating Instructions

Operator Controls

If the brushes are switched on and the SS-4000 is not in gear the machine can roll backwards.
The handlebar must be securely engaged at the required height.

Avoid injury and damage; Make completely sure that there are no persons or objects within the danger zone.

With long sleeves, the handlebar can get stuck inside the sleeve; This could prevent the drive from disen-
gaging and result in injury. Set the bar lower if wearing long sleeves or tightly button the sleeves.

Engagement

Reverse

Forward

Sweeping and Driving can be engaged independent of each other. Having the brush engaged without the transmission engaged will cause 
the machine to roll backward. The brush can be engaged and disengaged as necessary while driving. 
The brush speed can be adjusted to your preference – pushing the lever forward will increase the speed; pulling back will decrease the 
brush speed. If the brush starts to leave debris behind, increase the rotation speed (see ‘Adjusting Brush Speed’) and select a lower gear (see 
‘Gear Selection’).
The SS-4000 is also equipped with a reverse gear. Come to a complete stop before engaging the reverse gear. Ensure the area behind is 
clear before backing up. Do not operate brush in reverse.
