Work area
Check the surface to be treated for loose parts (stones, screws, etc.) The surface must be swept if
necessary. Make sure the machine can travel over all inequalities on the surface. Small inequalities like
weld seams or floor joints are no barriers for the machine.
Secure the work area around the machine providing an adequate safety distance from the machine.
Use a red and white safety chain and danger sign to enclose the work area.
Remove reinforcing steel or other objects protruding from the surface in order to prevent damage to
the machine.
Warning!
Make sure that the surface to be treated does not contain dangerous materials
such as:
- combustible or explosive dusts or substances.
- carcinogenic or pathogenic substances.

Manual moving of the machine
To move the machine manually push the treadle up with your foot. The wheels are now disengaged from the
drive motors. The machine can now be pushed around on its wheels.
Make sure that the floor is flat, because the machine is uncontrolled now!
It is very dangerous to drive the
machine on a grade or ramp when the treadle is in upwards position!
Never load or unload the
machine on a ramp or incline when the wheels are in the disengage mode. Failure to do so could cause
machine to run away, damage to the machine, damage to property or cause serious injury.
Push the treadle down when parking the machine, engaging the wheels to the drive system will act like a
parking brake when the machine is turned off.
The machine should only be moved around when the dust hose, and power supply cable are disconnected.
WARNING!
Always make sure all rotating parts have come to a complete standstill before moving the
machine around.
Be careful! Make sure nobodies feet get under the wheels. Wear appropriate safety shoes when you drive the
machine to or from the work area.
Make sure that no vehicles, such as forklift trucks and other equipment run over the electric cable and the dust
hose.
