1.2 Technical Data
2 Operation
Do not sweep up burning or
smouldering objects, e.g. ciga-
rettes,matchesorsimilarobjects.
When removing any glass, met-
al 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
2.2 Assembly
suitable for use with liquids.
Do not use the sweeping
machine in the immediate
vicinity of heat sources (fire,
radiators, heater fans or simi-
lar heat radiating equipment).
Use only original Alto accesso-
ries and spare parts.
2.1 Important Safety
Instructions
For packaging reasons, the
sweeping machine is delivered
in only partially assembled
state.
The handle and side brushes
must be fitted.
• Unpack the machine and
place it on a level surface.

mal sweeping position and
then push it downwards and
forward until it bottoms.
• Tighten the two retaining
knobs securely.

2.2.2 Fitting of the side
brushes
• Push the side brush from
below into the snap device
provided on the side brush
arm.
2.3.1 Adjusting the side
brushes The push-type sweeping ma-
chine is set at the factory for
operation on smooth and level
floors.
• Move the side brushes into
working position by turning
the adjusting knob.
• To adjust the height of the
brushes, turn the adjusting
knobs to the left or right.
2.3.2 Adjustment of the
brush rollers
On uneven floors or in the event
of brush wear:
• Raise the latching height
indicator on the side of the
machine with two finger and
move to the desired position.
Downwards, i.e. with increasing
symbol bar thickness, increases
the brush pressure.
NOTE!
All the brushes should be set so
that they contact the ground with
only slight pressure.
2.3 Starting Operation and
Function Check
NOTE!
The setting must be the same on
both sides in order to ensure that
the brush roller is horizontal in
the sweeping machine.
2.3.3 Function check • Push the machine at normal
walking speed over the sur-
face to be cleaned:
The cleaning capacity is de-
pendent on the working speed
(number of revolutions of the
brush rollers).
The side brushes allow edges
and corners to be swept clean.
• Check the sweeping result
and then correct the brush
pressure, if necessary, as
described above.
When the machine is pulled
backwards, the side brushes
and brush rollers automatically
lift slightly from the floor. This
prevents the creation of unnec-
essary dust.

2.4 Supervision of
Operation
CAUTION!
String, wire, packag-
ing tape and similar
long objects should
be picked up from the floor by
hand and not swept up with the
sweeping machine:
Empty the dirt collecting tank at
regular intervals. The machine
will no longer sweep when the
tank is full.
• Lift out the dirt collecting tank
from above and tip the con-
tents over the side edge into
a dustbin.
2.4.1 Emptying the dirt
collecting tank
This will help to maintain the
brushing capacity of the ma-
chine and prevent machine
damage caused by jamming of
the drive.
2.5 Stopping Operation
2.5.1 Empty the dirt
collecting tank
2.5.2 Raise the side brushes The handle can be folded over
to reduce the storage space
required for the sweeping ma-
chine.
see 2.4 Raise the side brushes from the
ground to prevent any unneces-
sary brush wear.
2.5.3 Storage • Slightly loosen the retaining
knobs and pull the handle
forward against the normal
pushing direction.
• Fold the handle forward. The
sweeping machine can then
be stored in an upright posi-
tion.
