When the side brush is fairly worn, its height
must be adjusted to recover as much of the
brush consumption as possible.
Lower the brush (motor on).
Please make sure that the ground contact
area is as shown in the figure.
Warning: these operations must be carried
out with the machine off, the key switched
off (for battery-operated version), selector in
“OFF” position (for gasoline-operated
version) and with the machine on even floor.

area, just slacken counternut “

screw “

tighten counternuts “

Restart the brush and make sure that the
ground contact area is as required. If
necessary, just repeat the adjusting operation
until reaching the right position.
When the brush is remarkably worn out, it is
necessary to replace it. Just press the two tabs
inwards and remove the brush.
Reinstall the new brush by carrying out the
reverse operation and pushing it with your
hands.

the height is adjusted to its original position,
corresponding to a new brush.
