turns on.
2. If the warning light becomes green or red (3 or 4, Fig.

Proceed with recharging the batteries (see the
procedure in the Maintenance paragraph).
Starting the machine

handles (5), to reach a comfortable position.
2. Lower the side broom (10, Fig. C), disengage the
handle (12) from its retainer (2) and lower the handle
(without turning it).
3. Turn the ignition key (2, Fig. B) to “I” position without

installed:
– Manual filter-shaker: turn the ignition key to “0”
position, pull the handle outward (20, Fig. C) till
the end of stroke, and then release it. The internal
return spring strikes the dust filter frame and
shakes it. Repeat this operation several times.
Turn the ignition key to “I” position.
– Electric filter-shaker (optional): press and hold
the filter-shaker button (8, Fig. B) for few seconds.
During this operation the main engine and all
functions are automatically stopped.
The hopper (17, Fig. C) should be emptied after each
working period and whenever is full.
NOTE
The side broom (10, Fig. C) can be lowered
also when it is running.
NOTE
Repeat the filter shaking operation at least
every ten minutes while using the machine
(according to the area dusty conditions).
NOTE
When the dust filter is clogged and/or the
hopper is full, the machine cannot collect
dust and debris anymore.
CAUTION!
