waste container.
● The dust is more effectively bound through the recycled water
operation (water circulation).

Foreseeable misuse

Any type of improper use is prohibited.
The operating personnel are liable for hazards resulting from in-
correct use. Using the vehicle for other purposes than those de-
scribed in this documentation is prohibited.
No modifications must be made to the vehicle.
● Never sweep/vacuum explosive liquids, inflammable gases or
undiluted acids and solvents. These include petrol, paint thin-
ners or heating oil, which can form explosive vapours or mix-
tures through suction air turbulence, also acetone, undiluted
acids and solvents because these attack the materials used in
the machine.
● Never sweep or vacuum reactive metal dusts (e.g. aluminium,
magnesium, zinc) because they form explosive gases in con-
junction with highly alkaline or acidic cleaning agents.
● Never sweep or vacuum burning or smouldering objects.
● Do not remain in the hazard zone.
● Never operate the vehicle in potentially explosive environ-
ments.
● Never transport persons on the vehicle, the loading area or at-
tachments.
● Do not use the vehicle as a front loader.
● Do not use the vehicle in the forestry industry.
● Do not use the vehicle for dispersing insecticide, pesticide or
fertiliser.
