or any other form of health-
endangering substances and
materials.

2.1 Important safety
instructions

smouldering objects, e.g.
cigarettes, matches or similar
objects.
When removing any glass, metal
or similar materials from the dirt
collecting tank,
wear sturdy gloves to avoid the
risk of injury.
The dirt collecting tank should be
emptied after every use of the
sweeping machine.
The sweeping machine is not
suitable for use with liquids.
Do not use the sweeping
machine in the immediate
vicinity of heat sources (fire,
radiators, heater fans or similar
heat radiating equipment).
Use only original Alto accessories
and spare parts.

place it on a level surface.
Do not dispose of packaging
until all parts have been
removed.

Operation
2.2.2 Fitting the side brush
NOTE!
Bent bristles can be straightened
by laying the side brush in
lukewarm water.
• Remove dirt collecting tank.
NOTE!
Always stand tank on feet on
front side to prevent damage
to the rubber strip.
• Push side brush (1) onto shaft
and tighten hexagon bolt (2)
with open-end spanner
without damaging hub.
• Lay V-belt in groove of right-
hand wheel (3).
• Mount side brush arm with
pin (push in from outside) and
retaining clip (4).
Swivel down arm.
CAUTION!
Side brush must rotate anti-
clockwise when sweeper is
pushed forward.
2.3 Starting operation and
functional check
2.3.1 Mounting dirt collecting
tank
• Place tank on frame and swivel
downward.
• To remove tank, swivel upward
by handle.
2.3.2 Adjusting the side

2.3.3 Adjusting brush roller •Adjust brush pressure with
handwheel. Adjustment can
be checked on scale next to
right-hand wheel. First follow
our recommendations and
then adapt brush pressure to
wear of brush roller or, if
necessary, to your local
conditions.
NOTE!
Excessively high roller pressure
increases brush wear and
requires greater pushing force.
2.3.4 Functional check •Push the machine at normal
walking speed over the
surface to be cleaned:
The cleaning capacity is
dependent on the working speed
(number of revolutions of
the brush roller).
The side brush allows edges and
corners to be swept clean.
•Check the sweeping result
and then correct the brush
pressure if necessary.
2.4 Supervision of
operation CAUTION!
String, wire, packing tape
and similar long objects
should be picked up from
the floor by hand and not
swept up with the sweeping
machine:
This will help to maintain the
sweeping capacity of the
machine and prevent machine
damage caused by jamming of
the drive.
Empty the dirt collecting tank at
regular intervals. Sweeping is no
longer possible when the tank is
full.
2.5 After completing work •Empty the dirt collecting tank.
To transport or for space-saving
storage:
•Swivel up side brush arm
•Loosen wing nuts on handle,
spread handle apart
somewhat and swivel
forward.
