MAIN BROOM REPLACEMENT (Bristles worn to a length of 1 inch; 2.54 cm or less)
1.
Turn the engine off and lock the parking brake.
2.
Push the main broom control lever to the LOWER position
3.
Open the left broom chamber door (the door opposite the driver’s seat).
4.
Using a ¾” wrench, remove the hex bolt on the main broom idler mount.
5.
Pull the main broom idler mount straight out to remove.
6.
Grasp the main broom by the plastic drive hub, pull the main broom straight out
and clear of the broom chamber.
7.
Depending on broom condition, you can either rotate the old broom end-to-end
and re-install it or you can install a new broom. Slide the main broom into the
broom chamber and align the broom with the metal drive hub located at the far
side of the broom chamber.
If a worn broom is being replaced, install the new broom by first adjusting the
broom arms up, to better match the position of the drive hub with the hub on the
new
broom.
8.
Once the broom is started onto the drive hubs, rotate the broom counter-clockwise
while pushing lightly against the broom.
9.
Once the broom is fully engaged, replace the idler hub while aligning the seats in
the idler hub with the broom’s drive hub ears.
10.
Install the retaining bolt into position and tighten with the wrench.
11.
Close and latch the left broom door.
12.
Perform a main broom adjustment test and adjust as needed.
