OPERATIONWHILE OPERATING THE MACHINEPick up oversized debris before sweeping. Pickup wire, string, twine, large pieces of wood, or anyother debris that could become wrapped aroundor tangled in the brushes.Drive as straight a path as possible. Avoidbumping into posts or scraping the sides of themachine. Overlap the sweep paths by severalcentimeters (a few inches).Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply whenthe machine is in motion. The machine is veryresponsive to the movement of the steering wheel.Avoid sudden turns, except in emergencies.Adjust the machine speed and brush pressure.Use the lowest brush pressure for bestperformance.Keep the machine moving to prevent damagingfloor finishes.If poor cleaning performance is observed, stopcleaning and refer to MACHINETROUBLESHOOTING in this manual.Perform the Daily Maintenance Procedures aftereach use (see MACHINE MAINTENANCE in thismanual).Drive the machine slowly on inclines. Use thebrake pedal to control machine speed ondescending inclines. Sweep with the machine upinclines rather than down inclines.FOR SAFETY: When using machine, go slowon inclines and slippery surfaces.Maximum rated climb and descent for a fullhopper is 10 /18%. Maximum rated climb anddescent for an empty hopper is 14 /25%.20S30 9004080 (2--08)HomeFind. Go To.
