ABOUT THIS MANUAL

b
The smaller line of sweeper and scrubbers have
less complicated part section arrangement, and
are easier to find your way through the parts
sections. The larger machines can have quite a
variety of model types which significantly
increases the size to the machine manual.
Because of this, on the larger machine we made
the first part section, Section 5, a part section
which contains parts common to all type of the
machine. If the machine has an engine, this
section contains parts information on a gasoline
powered machine.
The remaining sections contain only parts
information which is unique to that particular
machine type, such as unique diesel parts on the
machine, or unique SRS
r
parts. Knowing the
machine model type you have is important when
searching for that part information you need for
ordering repair parts. Start in that unique section
first when looking for a part, then go to the first
parts section, Section 5, if the part can’t be found
in the unique section.
MACHINE SERIAL NUMBERS
When a design change takes place to a machine,
the changes are indicated in the parts sections
with machine serial numbers. Know the serial
number of your machine which can be found on
the machine data plate mounted on the machine.
Record this number on the inside front cover of
your manual along with your customer number.
Machine number usage is recorded in the
Machine Serial Number column of the parts lists
in the parts sections of the manual. If the machine
serial number column lists zeros on the left side of
the dash, then this part is used on all machines;
such as (000000-- ).
If the column lists zeros on the left of the dash
and a number on the right of the dash, then the
part is used on machines up to and including that
machine serial number; such as (00000--002345).
For parts that are used on machines beginning at
and continuing on from a certain serial number,
the column would list a serial number on the left of
the dash and have blank spaces on the right side
of the dash; such as (002346-- ). This part
would be used on machines starting with that
machine serial number and greater.
Finally, parts can be used on machines with serial
numbers in a certain block of numbers. In this
situation there is a serial number on the left and
right side of the dash. The part is then used on a
machine with a serial number starting at the
number on the left and up to and including the
number on the right; such as (002346--008900).
PARTS ASSEMBLIES
A part assembly has parts within the assembly,
such as a parking brake consisting of other
smaller parts. What parts are contained in a part
assembly can be determined by an indentation
arrangement in the description column of the
parts lists.
Here is an example of a part assembly, in this
case we will use the parking brake mentioned
previously:
Machine
Serial Number
Description Qty.
(000000-- ) Parking Brake 1
(000000-- ) Pin, Roll 1
(000000-- ) Link 1
(000000-- ) Spring, Compression 1
(000000-- ) Pin, Roll 1
(000000-- ) Support 1
(000000-- ) Lever, Release 1
(000000-- ) Rod, Parking Brake 1
(000000-- ) Washer, 0.50” 3
In this example, the parts whose descriptions are
indented under the parking brake are all parts of
the parking brake. When you order the parking
brake you will receive all the parts listed under it.
You also can order any of the individual parts
listed under the parking brake if it is the only part
you need.
