6. Allow the engine and hydraulic system to warm
up three to five minutes.
7. Release the machine parking brake.
8. Place the throttle control in the (Fast 1)
position, and drive the machine to the area to
be swept.
TO SWEEP
Plan the sweeping in advance. Try to arrange long
runs with minimum stopping and starting. Sweep
debris from very narrow aisles into main aisles ahead
of time. Do an entire floor or section at one time.
Pick up oversize debris before sweeping. Flatten or
remove bulky cartons from aisles before sweeping.
Pick up pieces of wire, twine, string, etc., which
could become entangled in brush or brush plugs.
Overlap brush paths.

OVERLAPPING PATHS
Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply when
the machine is in motion. The machine is very
responsive to the movement of the steering wheel.
Avoid sudden turns, except in emergencies.
Sweep as straight a path as possible. Avoid
bumping into posts or scraping the sides of the
sweeper.
Speed up the engine from (Fast 1) to (Fast 2) when
light litter is to be picked up. This will improve both
litter pickup and hopper loading. Do not overuse the
(Fast 2) speed as the machine may dust and clog
the hopper filters in dusty environments. Normal
debris is best picked up with the engine operating in
the (Fast 1) position.
1. Push the hopper lift and side brush lever into
the (Side Brush On) position.
2. Press the main brush and vacuum fan switch to
start the main brush and vacuum fan.
3. Move the main bush position lever into the
(Main Brush Down) position and the side brush
position lever into the (Side Brush Down)
position.
4. Sweep as required.
