TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

The CS500 is a walk-behind sweeping machine powered

by batteries with an output voltage of 12V. It is designed

to clean tiled, cement or tarred ooring, both indoors and

outdoors.

work on wet surfaces if necessary as long as the vacuum

is not activated.

This sweeping machine features a central brush for

collecting brushed-up material, a side brush for cleaning

along edges and in corners, a vacuum system with lter

to avoid raising dust, and a debris hopper that is moved

manually by the operator.

The machine must be used only for this purpose.
