Never use the sweeper with the ground pressure set too high, as this will result in increased wear on the
brushes.
NOTE! lf the front support wheel is to be filled with air it must be dismantled.
SETTING THE BRUSHES DIAGONALLY
The sweeper can be set in any of three positions: diagonally to the right or left, or at right angles to the
direction of travel. Press the adjusting lever first to the left, and then pull it either forwards or backwards
(fig 10).
OPERATING TIPS
When the sweeper is to be used for clearing snow, check the area to be cleared, and remove all stones and
other foreign objects, before the first fall of snow.
To obtain the best results, clear snow as soon as possible after it has fallen. lf there is a wind blowing, snow
or sand clearing operations should be carried out in the same direction as the wind.
To avoid throwing out too much dust when clearing sand, wet the surface to be cleared before starting
clearing operations.
It is usually a good idea to operate with the sweeper brushes angled towards the appropriate side.
Where the distance to or from the area to be cleared is a long one, set the sweeper brushes at right angles
to the direction of travel, and disconnect the power take-off.
AFTER USE
Always clean the sweeper after use. This ensures a longer life, and a proper function of the sweeper.
MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE BRUSHES
1. Unfasten the screw L and pull the brush off the shaft (fig 11).
.
2. Unscrew the two screws M in the plate
3. Remove the worn brush rings and replace them with new ones.
The ring with the angled brush should be fitted next to the gearbox housing, with the brush angled in
towards the gearbox housing.
To obtain the best results, replace all brush rings at the same time.
