DUST FILTER CLEANING AND INTEGRITY
CHECK
NOTE
Besides the standard paper filter, polyester
filters are also available. The following
procedure is applicable to each type of filter.
1.
Drive the machine on a level ground and engage the
parking brake (6 and 7, Fig. C).
2.
Turn the ignition switch (2, Fig. B) to "0" position.
3.
Remove the hopper hook (21, Fig. C).
4.
Remove the hopper (20, Fig. C) by using the handle
(22).
5.
Turn the handle (1, Fig. L) downwards (90°
approximately) and let the filter frame (2) rotate
outwards.
6.
Remove the dust filter (3).
7.
In an appropriate outdoor area, clean the filter by
shaking it on a level and clean surface, tapping the
side (1, Fig. M) opposite to the wire gauze (2).
Complete the cleaning by using compressed air (3) at
maximum 6 bars, blowing only from the side
protected by the wire gauze (2), at a minimum
distance of 30 cm (see the figure).
According to the filter type, observe the following
cautions:
– Paper filter (standard): Do not use water or
detergents to clean it; the filter can be damaged.
– Polyester filter (optional): To clean it, see the
above-mentioned instructions. If necessary, for a
better cleaning, it is allowed to wash the filter with
water and non-lathering detergents. This provides
better quality cleaning but reduces the life of the
filter, which will have to be replaced more
frequently. The use of inadequate detergents can
damage the filter.
8.
Check the filter body for tears.
9.
If necessary, clean the filter compartment rubber seal
(4, Fig. L) along its perimeter and check it for integrity.
If necessary, replace it.
10. Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly.
NOTE
Assemble the filter with the wire gauze (2, Fig.
M) facing the vacuum fan (19, Fig. U).

SKIRT HEIGHT AND OPERATION CHECK
1.
Drive the machine on a level ground that is suitable
for checking the skirt height.
Engage the parking brake (6 and 7, Fig. C).
2.
Turn the ignition switch (2, Fig. B) to "0" position.
Side skirt check
3.
Check the side skirts (16 and 17, Fig. C) for integrity.
Replace the skirts when they have cuts (1, Fig. N)
larger than 20 mm or cracks (2) larger than 10 mm
(for skirt replacement, refer to the Service Manual).
4.
Check that the side skirt (16 and 17, Fig. C) height
from the ground is within 0 – 3 mm (Fig. O). If
necessary, adjust the skirt height, according to the
following procedure:
Left skirt:
– Open the machine hood (10, Fig. C) and engage
the hood support rod (5, Fig. U).
– Loosen the knob (3, Fig. E) and remove the broom
left door (1, Fig. F), pulling it upwards to
disengage the retainers (2).
– Adjust the skirt (3, Fig. F) height by using the slots
(4).
– Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly.
Right skirt:
– Remove the main broom, as shown in the relevant
paragraph.
– Remove the belt (17, Fig. U) from the pulley (18);
for a easier removal, turn the pulley (18) by
operating on the vacuum fan (19) manually.
– Remove the screws (27, Fig. C) and the right door
(26) together with the belt (17, Fig. U).
Adjust the skirt (1, Fig. S) height by using the slots
(2).
