GUTTER BROOM(S)
The gutter broom sweeps debris along edges into
the path of the main brush.
WARNING: Brush linkage pinch points.
Stay clear when linkage is moving.
Check the gutter broom daily for wear or damage.
Remove any string or wire found tangled on the
gutter broom or gutter broom drive hub.
The gutter broom pattern is set at the factory and
should be checked periodically. The right side
gutter broom bristles should contact the floor in a
10 o’clock to 4 o’clock pattern when the broom is
in motion, creating a sweeping path 90--100 mm
(36--40 in) wide. The left side gutter broom
(option) should contact the floor in a 8 o’clock to 2
o’clock pattern when the broom is in motion.
The gutter broom(s) should be replaced when it
no longer sweeps effectively for your application.
A guideline length is when the remaining bristles
measure 75 mm (3 in) in length.
