SW4000 USER MANUAL - Nilfisk PARTS - Nilfisk-Advance

USER MANUALENGLISH10. Start sweeping by driving the machine with the hands on the steering wheel (1) and by pressing the drive pedal (5).NOTEThe brooms (14, 15 and 17) can be lowered and lifted even when the machine is moving.The brooms do not turn when they are lifted or when the machine is stationary.When the machine is stationary, the vacuum system and dust guard system (optional), turn off automatically.WARNING!When steering, avoid abrupt direction changes, pay careful attention and drive the machine at slow speed,especially when the hopper is full or when operating on inclines.Drive the machine slowly on inclines. Use the brake pedal (6) to control machine speed while descendinginclines.Do not turn the machine on an incline; drive straight up or down.Stopping the machine1. To stop the machine, release the drive pedal (5).To stop the machine quickly, also press the service brake pedal (6).WARNING!Frequent and extended use of the service brake (6), especially on slopes, can cause a rapid wear of the pads.Keep the braking system in maximum efficiency (see paragraphs Brake Cable Adjustment and ScheduledMaintenance Table in Maintenance chapter).2. In case of emergency, press the emergency push-button (77) to immediately stop the machine.To deactivate the emergency push-button (77), turn it clockwise.3. Turn the ignition key (61) to “0” and remove it.DISPLAYThe display (69) shows the machine working hours; the time counted is the one during which the main broom is moving.NOTEWhen the working hour count exceeds 999, hours are then displayed in thousands with two decimal digits (for example1.23 = 1,230 hours).By pressing the push-button (70) it is possible to shortly display the battery voltage in Volts, with one decimal digit.Displayed codes1. If the display (69) shows code “LOU” repeatedly, the batteries are semi-discharged: it is necessary to reduce the workingintensity, by reducing the broom pressure on the floor or avoiding driving uphill for long.2. If the display (69) shows code “HIU” repeatedly, the battery charge is excessive: this may occur if the machine is left stationaryfor a long time with the engine running. In this case, stop the engine when the machine is stationary.If these problems persist, maybe it is necessary to calibrate the engine rpm. For this operation, contact an authorised Nilfisk ServiceCenter.CAUTION!Working for a long time with the above codes displayed can reduce the working life of the batteries.PARKING BRAKE1. Engage the parking brake by pressing the pedal (6) and engaging the lever (7).2. Disengage the parking brake by pressing and releasing the pedal (6).WARNING!Before performing any maintenance, repair, cleaning or replacement procedure engage the parking brake.Engage the parking brake when parking the machine on a slope.WARNING!Before leaving the machine unattained, be sure that the parking brake can stop the machine with a large safetymargin.1464815000 - SW4000 17
