Operation
Note:
Always use the traction unit to lift and move the
attachment.
To operate the broom, pull the auxiliary hydraulics lever
to the operator grip and hold it there.
Tips for Sweeping
•
If ground speed is too fast, debris will pile up in front
of the broom, causing it to bulldoze instead of sweep.
This can damage the broom.
•
More pressure will not give a better sweep, but it will
wear out the broom faster.
•
A level broom lasts longer.
•
When sweeping, try to keep the flange on the top of
the pivot pin level with the gage plate
(Fig. 12). This will allow you adequate room for
movement if you run over bumps or low areas.
