Clutch and Brake Lever

PLEASE CAREFULLY READ WARNINGS ON
PAGE TWO OF THIS MANUAL.

Refer to Page 4 for location of controls.

To make the machine move under its own
power - without sweeping:

-Turn on Main Switch
-Make sure both brooms are off ground.

-Gently pull clutch lever, on handle bar, towards
you. You can regulate speed by varying how
hard you pull on this lever.

To Stop:   Let go of the clutch lever.

To stop machine when going down hill, set
parking brake, by pushing the clutch lever down
and forward.  This locks rear wheels.

To Sweep:   Main broom only.

Pull main broom lever to the right to lower
broom to the floor. Broom will drop, causing
lever to move toward front of machine

Note that the machine will not sweep unless
broom is lowered to the ground.

To Sweep:  Main and side brooms.

Pull side broom lever to the left to lower brush
to the floor.  Broom will drop, causing lever to
move toward front of machine.

Then turn on the side broom.

Operating Tip:

When side broom is in use, the

broom should contact the floor from about

11

O'Clock until about 5 O'Clock.
(See Page 11 for illustration).

The adjuster is under the hood (lid) as shown.
(Page 4, Item 10). Turn the knob clockwise to
raise the broom.

NOTE:

 Side Broom does not work by itself. Main

broom must be down if sweeper is to pick up
anything.

Pull the lever toward you to go forward. The
harder you pull, the faster the machine will go.

Release the lever to coast to a stop.

Push this lever down towards the ground and
then  forward to engage the brake.

You do not normally need to use the brake to
stop.

Always use the brake when you park the
machine and pick the brooms up off of the
floor to avoid "Flat Spotting" them.

Broom Lowered

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Pull main broom lever toward you, and then
toward the center of the machine. This
releases the catch and permits the main
broom to drop.

To bring the main broom back up again, pull
lever from "Lock" position, into "Release"
position.
