Side broom
Replacement of side broom
Adjust tension of side
broom Vee belt
To tension the Vee belt, proceed in the
following way:
The side broom is driven by a Vee belt
from the RH wheel. Slueing down the
side broom will tension the belt, and
driving conditions thus will be
established.
Slue-up side broom;
Loosen bolts (B/2), should come out
approx. 5 mm (0.2”);
Lift roller holder (B/1) from slot in
plastic rib;
Slue roller holder (B/1) out,
introduce into next slot, slue back
and tighten;
Slue down side broom, check
tension, readjust as required.
Note:
Adjust Vee belt tension just as
far as required to ensure power
transmission. Do not adjust too high
a tension of the Vee belt to avoid
excessive load and wear to the side
broom, and to preclude poor
sweeping performance.
Slue-up side broom arm
Remove clamp screw underneath
side broom (spanner size 10 mm)
Pull out side broom
Plug-on new side broom and
secure. Do not overtorque clamp
screw to avoid squeezing the
bristles hub.
Note:
Adjust ground clearance with
handwheel (A/1) so that 2/3 of the
broom circumference is going to
touch the floor. Higher load will
cause excessive bristle wear and
more power for moving the
machine.
