HOW THE MACHINE WORKS
The steering wheel controls the direction of
machine travel. The directional pedal controls the
speed and forward/reverse direction. The brake
pedal slows and stops the machine.
The side brush sweeps debris into the path of the
main brush. The main brush sweeps debris from
the floor into the hopper. The vacuum system pulls
dust and air through the hopper and the hopper
dust filter.
When sweeping is finished, clean the hopper dust
filter and empty the hopper.
