Operation
Operating the Broom
DANGER
When the machine is in operation, contact
with a rotating broom can result in serious
personal injury to you or bystanders.
•
Before adjusting, cleaning, inspecting,
troubleshooting, or repairing the machine,
shut off the engine and wait for all moving
parts to stop. Remove the key to prevent
someone from accidentally starting the
engine.
•
Stay behind the handles and away from the
broom while operating the machine.
•
Keep your face, hands, feet, and any other
part of your body or clothing away from
concealed, moving, or rotating parts.
WARNING
The rotating broom can throw stones and
other foreign objects, causing serious
personal injury to you or bystanders.
•
Keep the working area clear and free of all
objects that the broom could pick up and
throw.
•
Keep bystanders away.
Checking the Sweeping
Path
Service Interval:
Before each use or daily
A broom sweeps with the tips of its bristles. When you
apply too much downward pressure, the broom no
longer uses its tips; the broom is now working with the
sides of the bristles. This limits the flicking action of
the bristles and sweeping effectiveness, decreasing
the service life of the broom.
1.
Drive to a flat, dusty or snowy area and stop
the machine.
2.
Engage the broom, lower it to the ground to
sweep away some snow or debris, and then
raise it.
3.
Disengage the broom and shut off the machine.
4.
Wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving
the operating position.
