Brush Pattern
To check pattern:
1.
Move Broom to a dusty flat surface.
2.
Set power unit’s parking brake and leave the engine running.
3.
Start the Broom at a slow speed; then lower it so bristle tips and castor wheel touch the ground. The heal of the
bucket should be approximately 1 inch off the ground. Run the Broom in a stationary position for 10-30 seconds.
4.
Raise the Broom and back away; switch off Broom and engine, remove safety restraints and remove the key. The
brush pattern left in the dust should be 2-4 inches (50-133mm) wide, running the length of the Broom.
5.
The castor wheel should just touch the surface, as it is only for leveling purposes.
6.
If the brush pattern is not 2"- 4" wide the broom height needs to be adjusted. Remove
front bolt from “Broom Mount
Plate” on both ends of broom. Move up or down to achieve proper height, and reinstall bolts.
7.
Adjust the front and side flaps to contact the sweeping surface lightly and evenly.
BROOM HYDRAULIC CONNECTION
1.
Disconnect the hydraulic hose quick couplers from one another and attach the quick couplers to your power unit as per the
instructions in your power unit’s operator’s manual.
2.
Carefully raise the loader arm and cycle the tilt cylinders to check hose clearances and to check any interference.
