Leveling
Level the sweeper after installation and before each
use for even brush wear and efficient sweeping.
1. Drive the sweeper to a level, paved area.
2. Lower the brush head assembly into the
sweeping position. Make sure the weight of the
brush head assembly is on the spring-chain
assemblies and the brush just touches the
ground.
3. Level the drive assembly using a level (figure 1).
• If the front of the drive assembly is high, turn
the leveling screws out (to the left) to lower
it.
• If the front of the drive assembly is low, turn
the leveling screws out (to the left) to raise it.
See figure 2 for leveling screw locations.
4. With the brush head assembly in the straight
position, measure from each end of the brush
frame to the ground.
5. Compare measurements.
• If they are not equal, slide the low side of the
brush head assembly up in the slots on the
drive assembly. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until
