Check that the green warning light (75) (charged battery) turns on. If the yellow (74) or red warning light (73) turns on, turn the ignition key to "0" and charge the batteries (see the procedure in Maintenance chapter). Drive the machine to the working area, by keeping the hands on the steering wheel and pressing the pedal (2) on the front side to move forward and on the rear side to move backward. The drive speed can be adjusted from zero to maximum speed by increasing the pressure on the pedal (2). NOTE The seat (25) is equipped with a safety sensor, which allows the machine to be driven by pressing the pedal (2) only when the operator is on the driver's seat. Lower the main broom with the lever (86); it will start turning. turn on the vacuum system by pushing the switch (79) backward. NOTE The vacuum system turns on only when the main broom is lowered.
