CHAPTER 11 – STARTING AND STOPPING
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE, IT IS INDISPENSABLE TO HAVE READ THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
STARTING :
1 - Turn the STOP control clockwise to position "1"
2 - Open the fuel cock
3 - Set the speed control lever to "S" (start)
4 - Close the "starter" lever
> If the engine is already warm or in hot weather, pull the starter halfway out or keep it fully open
> If the engine is cold or in cold weather, close the starter.
5 - Pull the self-winding handle slowly until it offers resistance. This point marks the start of compression. Return the handle to its
original position and pull it sharply. Do not pull the cable out of the guide. Start the engine and return the self-winding handle to its original
position without letting it go sharply.
6 -
Start the engine and open the starter lever gradually leaving it fully open. Do not open the starter lever fully if the engine is still cold
or in cold weather as the engine might stall.
RUNNING :
1 - Once the engine is running return the accelerator lever to the low speed position " L " and warm the engine for a few minutes.
Gradually move the accelerator lever towards the high speed position " H " until the required speed is reached.
IMPORTANT: If there is no need to keep the engine accelerating, slow it down gradually by moving the accelerator lever to the idle
running speed: this will reduce fuel consumption and prolong the engine life.
TURNING THE ENGINE OFF:
1 - Move the accelerator lever to Minimum and keep the engine running for 2-3 minutes before turning it off.
2 - Turn the STOP control anticlockwise to " O ".
3 - Close the fuel cock
4 - Pull the self-winding handle slowly and return it to its original position until the point of resistance.
IMPORTANT: This manoeuvre prevents condensation from forming in the combustion chamber.
CHAPTER 12 – CORRECT USE AND ADVICE
IMPORTANT: Before starting the job, make sure that the surface to be swept is free of objects such as ropes, strips of plastic or metal, rags,
stick, live electric cables or other similar articles. If such object are present, remove them to avoid damage to the machine or, in the case
of live electric cables, risks of electrocution.
Crossing over rails, small steps or guides which stick up from the floor can damage the flaps on the central brush vacuum chamber; this being
one of the most frequent causes of damage, if such object have to be crossed, lift the front part of the machine at the moment of crossing by
pressing down on the handle to gain leverage.
Avoid crossing over wet or particular damp surfaces in order to avoid damage to the paper filters. In cases of strict necessity, before crossing
stop suction pulling the lever Detail 4 Fig. 6 .
If the area to be cleaned is very dirty owing to the quantity and quality of the dirt to be eliminated, it is advisable to pass over the first time
to get rid of the majority of the dirt, then pass over a second time with the waste container and the suction filters clean.
If the machine is used methodically and correctly, it is not necessary to carry out multiple passes.
To keep the machine efficient and consequently obtain top performance, the vacuum filters must be shaken and cleaned periodically and the
waste container emptied frequently.
