MACHINE
CHARACTERISTICS
The

machine
is
made
of
two
main
component
sections:
MAIN
DESIGN
The
two
main
component
sections
are
the
carriage
and
main
head.
The
handle
(Fig.1.2)
on
the
frame
is
adjustable
in
height
and
allows
the
operator
to
work
in
a
correct
and
safe
working
posture.
The
halogen
spotlight
(Fig.1.2)
enables
the
operator
to
work
in
darker
areas.
Existing
lighting
system
does
not
replace
adequate
overhead
lighting.
The
frame
The
controls
are
positioned
on
top
of
the
electrical
box
(fig.1.3)
The
electrical
box
(fig.1.3)
contains
the
electric
switching
devices
and
the
inverter.
The
main
feeding
cable
is
connected
with
a
plug
and
socket
on
top.
The
motor
feeding
cable
is
plugged
into
the
socket
located
on
the
bottom
of
the
box.
The
tank
is
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
frame,
so
that
the
weight
of
the
water
has
no
influence
on
the
operation
of
the
machine.
The
frame
weight,
on
the
other
hand,
is
fully
absorbed
by
the
driving
wheels.
An
electric
pump
sprays
the
water
through
a
front
sprayer
or
internal.
The
motor
is
mounted
on
the
base
plate
and
is
driving
the
three
heads
with
a
belt
system.
The
planetary
head
is
driven
by
a
second
belt.
