deposits in the carburettor, fuel filter and tank or fuel stabilizer
mixed to the fuel.

Do not add oil to petrol.

Refuelling is done by removing the tank lid (pic. 1; pos. 9) and
adding the fuel up to the fuel screen marking as maximum (the
fuel screen is located in the tank filling hole). Prevent fuel from
contacting your skin! Make sure fuel is always clean with no dirt!
Close the tank lid appropriately after each refuelling or
inspection.

Take the appliance to the surface you want to sweep.

Check all components if tightened well and not damaged.
Check the entire air filter for any dirt. Pic.15 shows air filter
components from the engine with the air filter lid being
unscrewed (pic. 14). All air filter components, especially the air
filter insert (pic. 15a) must be clean – cleaning agent: cleaning
petrol (adhere to the safety sheet of the given manufacturer!).
Open the fuel tap (pic. 8; pos. “ON“). Check if the socket plug is
tightened.

Starting the engine

Put the engine switch to the “ON“ position (pic. 9)
Make sure the engine is cold when being started.
Turn on the engine choke (pic. 12; pos. “CHOKE“)
Turn the speed control lever (pic. 10; pos. “START“) to full
speed.
First, pull shortly the starting cable so that it is stretched. Now
pull the starting cable slowly to the stretched position with your
left hand resting on the engine and one more strong pulling the
starting cable. Turn the engine choke off as soon as the engine
gets started (pic. 12; pos. “RUN“)

To be provided

The starting cable must not reel automatically. It must always
be reeled back by hand. If the engine fails to start even after
several attempts, check whether the tank has been refuelled
properly. Maybe there is too much fuel in the roll, which has
caused the spark plug to get damp.

Switching the engine off

Put the speed control lever to position (pic. 11; pos. “STOP“)
and switch the engine off by the engine switch (pic. 9; pos.
“OFF“). Never let the appliance run unattended if the engine is
running. Never switch the engine off if the choke is on as it
could damage the engine. Close the fuel tap (pic. 8; pos.
“OFF“). Pull slowly the starter handle so that there is some
resistance. Valves will get closed. This step is necessary to
prevent damp air from getting in the combustion chamber.

Operating mode
Ensure good stability!
Pressing the guide rod down will enable to turn the
sweeping broom in both directions by app. 20° and lock the
bar in those positions.

The appliance is moving forward when the right lever 1 (pic. 7)
is pressed.
The appliance is moving backward when the right lever 2 (pic.
7) is pulled.
Brushes are activated when the left lever 3 (picr.7) is pressed.
The cleaning appliance is fitted with a safety switch: brushes
and appliance are disabled as soon as levers are released.

The speed control lever must in dangerous situations and
accidents be put to “TOP“ and engine switched off by the
engine switch (pic. 9; pos. “OFF“).

In the operating mode, make always sure that the cooling
and combustion air is exhausted without interruption
(leaves may block the exhaust channels). Flue gas exhaust
without interruption should be ensured, too.

Supporting wheel and brush height adjustment

As soon as the brushes are slightly worn out, distance of
brushes from the ground must be adjusted again. For that
purpose, plastic rings of the brush supporting wheel must be
calibrated again.

Remove the lock rings of the supporting wheels and the
required number of plastic rings (see pic. 3a) from the
bottom side. Fit the supporting wheels again (pic. 3b). The
supporting wheel goes up and brushes are nearer to the

ground. Fit the plastic rings to the upper side and fix them
using a spacing bushing and locking ring so that the hole
distance towards the bushing remains constant (pic. 3c)

Finishing your work or breaks

After final sweeping is completed, let the appliance run free with
no load for 1 to 2 minutes (engine cooling phase)

Inspections and maintenance

Have any repairs necessarily performed by trained professional
staff only.

The socket plug must be pulled out before any

appliance changeover, adjustment or maintenance.

Safety instructions for inspections and maintenance

- Make sure petrol or oil do not leak – wear protective gloves
when working near the sweeping brush!

The sweeper, especially the sweeping brush, must be
cleaned after each use.

Maintenance, treatment, repairs, storing

General instructions
Safety instructions in particular should be followed.

Regular maintenance is necessary for perfect working of
your sweeper.

Sweeping brushes and driving components in particular must
be carefully treated to prevent damages or accidents in general.
Before maintenance:

-

pull down the socket plug,

put the appliance to a stable position,

wait until the engine cools down.

Disassembly/assembly/change of sweeping brushes:

To enable access to the sweeping brush, the side cover of the
sweeping brush must be disassembled (pic. 17). Disassemble
the external carrying disk (pic.18 and 19). The brush and spacer
segments can now be individually removed (pic.20-22)

Cleaning

To clean/splash with water (especially using a high-pressure
cleaner):

•

lubricate all spots that need lubrication and let the sweeper
run for 1 to 2 minutes to allow water that has got inside to
get away.

•

clean the engine with just a cloth. Splash with strong
current of water as water can get in the ignition system,
fuel system and lubricating oil system, which may lead to
failures.
