SKIRT HEIGHT AND OPERATION CHECK
Side skirt
1.
Drive the machine on a level ground that is suitable
for checking the skirt height.
2. Engage the parking brake by means of the pedal and
the lever (26 and 19, Fig. B).
3. Turn the ignition switch (18, Fig. B) to “0” position.
4. Disengage the retainers (8 and 6) and open the right
and left doors (7 and 5, Fig. C).
5. Check the side skirt (2, Fig. F) integrity.
Replace the skirts when they have cuts (1, Fig. Q)
larger than 0.79 in (20 mm) or cracks/tears (2) larger
than 0.39 in (10 mm) (for skirt replacement, refer to
the Service Manual).
6. Check that side skirt (2, Fig. F) height from ground is
within 0 – 0.12 in (0 – 3 mm) (Fig. R).
After loosening the screws (3, Fig. F), if necessary,
adjust the skirt position. Then tighten the screws (3).
Front and rear skirt
7.
Remove the main broom, as described in the related
paragraph.
8. Check the front and rear skirts (1 and 2, Fig. W) for
integrity.
Replace the skirts when they have cuts (1, Fig. Q)
larger than 0.79 in (20 mm) or cracks/tears (2) larger
than 0.39 in (10 mm) (for skirt replacement, refer to
the Service Manual).
9. Check that the front and rear skirts (1 and 2, Fig. W)
rub lightly on the floor but are not completely lifted
from the ground (see figure S).
After loosening the screws (3, Fig. W), if necessary,
adjust the skirt position. Then tighten the screws (3).
10. Press the front (25, Fig. B) skirt lifting pedal
completely, and check that the front skirt lifts 1.97 in
(50 mm) approximately.
Release the pedal and check that the skirt returns to
the initial position and not in an intermediate position.
If necessary, adjust the skirt lifting cable (1, Fig. X) by
using the adjuster (2) on the left front side of the skirt
(for the front skirt control cable replacement, refer to
the Service Manual).
11. Reassemble all the components in the reverse order
of disassembly.
HOPPER LIFTING SYSTEM HYDRAULIC
OIL LEVEL CHECK
1. Engage the parking brake by means of the pedal and
the lever (26 and 19, Fig. B).
2. Open the hood (1, Fig. V) and hold it by using the
related rod (16, Fig. V).
3. Check that the hydraulic oil level in the tank (14, Fig.
V) is between the MIN and MAX indicators (as shown
in Fig. Y).
4. If necessary add hydraulic oil - viscosity grade 32 cSt
- through the plug (1, Fig. Y).
5. Disengage to lock rod (16, Fig. V) and close the hood
(1, Fig. V).
BATTERY CHARGING
1. Drive the machine on a level ground and engage the
parking brake by means of the pedal and the lever (26
and 19, Fig. B).
2. Turn the ignition switch (18, Fig. B) to “0” position.
3. Open the hood (13, Fig. C) and hold it by using the
related rod (16, Fig. V).
4. Check the correct level of electrolyte inside the
batteries; if necessary, top up through the caps (3,
Fig. V).
Leave the caps (3) open for the next recharging.
Clean, if necessary, the upper surface of the
batteries.
5. Check that the battery charger is appropriate,
referring to the Battery Charger Operating Manual.
The battery charger voltage rating is 24 V.
The battery charger must be appropriate for the
battery installed on the machine.
CAUTION!
These operations must be performed with
the hopper (4, Fig. C) in its original position
(as shown in the figure).
WARNING!
Battery charging produces explosive
hydrogen gas. Charge the batteries only in
well-ventilated areas and far from naked
flames.
Do not smoke during battery charging.
Keep the hood open while recharging the
battery.
WARNING!
Be extremely careful when charging the
batteries as there may be battery fluid
leakages. The battery fluid is corrosive. If it
comes in contact with the skin or the eyes,
rinse thoroughly with water and consult a
doctor.
