using the Wanderhose [Ref. EN 13019], and should only be driven by trained operatives.
This machine should not be used for sweeping hot or burning substances. In the unlikely event of

An operator should receive training in the follow elements:
1 Safety Observations/Notices
2 Transit driving

4 In cab controls
5 External controls
6 Sweeping techniques
7 Load discharge
8 Channel brush setting and changing

Johnston Sweepers Limited can provide operator training upon request.
We would point out that it is the employers responsibility to carry out his own Risk Assessment on
the equipment in his particular working environment and work application.
This handbook should be carefully studied. In it you will find instructions for the operation and
maintenance of your JOHNSTON SWEEPER.
It is vitally important that the operator and maintenance staff have a copy of this book. The life of
the machine will depend upon following these instructions in respect of regular maintenance and
correct operating methods.
It is important that only GENUINE JOHNSTON SPARE PARTS are used when servicing and
maintaining the sweeper. This is especially important for consumables, filters etc, as the use of
non-genuine parts may cause premature failure and invalidation of warranty.
When carrying out maintenance or part replacement, additional explanatory illustrations can be
found in the Parts Manual, which shows and lists hardware, and availability of spares with the
orientation and positions of the various components.
