OBSERVE SAFETY RULES AT ALL TIMES.
WARNING: DO NOT WORK ON SCAVENGER with engine running or idling. Bring to a complete stop. Remove spark plug
wire on engine.
1.
For servicing and operating instructions for engine refer to Engine Manufacturers Service Manual. Careful attention to
care of air cleaner and crankcase lubrication instructions will insure longer engine life. KEEP ENGINE CLEAN.
2. Clean the engine air cleaner every 10 hours of operation. (Do so more often under dusty conditions.) If it is punctured,
torn, or uncleanable, it should be replaced.
3. Be sure to keep the oil at the proper level in the engine. Check the oil level each time you fill the fuel tank.
4. To drain the crankcase oil from the engine, use a siphon pump. To use it, run the engine for a short time to warm the oil
and make it flow more easily. Then remove the cap from the filler hole in the engine and insert the plastic tube into the
hole. Hold the pump below the bottom of the crankcase and squeeze it several times until oil appears in the tube above
the pump, and allow the oil to siphon into a container for disposal. DISPOSE OF PROPERLY.
5. Once a year, remove the wheels and add fresh grease in the teeth of the gears.
6. DUST BAG CARE
a. Keep the dust bag clean at all times.
b. To clean the dust bag, turn the bag inside out and reattach to the sweeper.
c. Start the engine and run at full throttle. Lightly tap the bag to release the dust trapped in the weave.
d. When the bag is clean remove it and turn it right side out again. Reattach to the sweeper and resume sweeping.
e. DO NOT wash the dust bag to clean. Washing will shrink the material, reducing air flow through the bag and seriously
reduce vacuum.
7. The efficiency of this unit depends on the breathing capacity of the dust bag. Under extremely dusty conditions the bag
should be emptied and cleaned frequently. Always empty and clean bag before storing after use. Debris allowed to
remain in the bag may cause spontaneous combustion, resulting in an explosion or fire.
