Operation
(Fig. 7)
When the mechanical sweeper is pushed, the feed-in brushes (4) and
the pick-up brushes (B) are set in rotation by the belt drives (A).
The rotating feed-in brushes (4) sweep the dirt to the centre. The two
counter-rotating pick-up brushes (B) convey the dirt into the debris
collector (6).
Adjusting the Feed-in Brushes
(Fig. 8)
Use the setting screw (5) to steplessly adjust the height of the feed-in
brushes (4) as required. Turn the setting screw clockwise to increase
the distance to the ground. Turn the setting screw counter clockwise to
decrease the distance to the ground.
Emptying the Debris Collector
(Fig. 9)
Lift the full debris collector (6) upward from the appliance and dispose
of the collected dirt properly.
After sweeping up metal, glass or sharp objects, wear heavy-duty work
gloves when emptying the debris collector.
Height Adjustment and folding of the Push Bar
(Fig. 10/11)
Remove the two adjustment nuts (2) and the corresponding screws.
Select one of the three holes (C) as required, then re-tighten the
nuts (2) and the corresponding screws. The push bar can be set to
three different heights over a range of approx. 98
– 94 – 89 cm.
Slightly untighten both fastening nuts (3) by approx. one turn and
pull up the push bar in order to fold it. This way the appliance can be
transported or stored space-savingly.
Cleaning and Storing
Clean the sweeper with a lightly moistened cloth. Do not immerse
the unit into liquids. Do not use aggressive chemicals, solvents or
abrasives.
Remove debris such as leaves, twigs, etc. from the brushes.
Regularly check the drive belts for proper tightness and elasticity.
Store the sweeper indoors in a dry place that is protected from dust,
dirt and extreme temperatures.
