C. SERVICE
1. Torque Motor Shaft - routine service of the gutter broom requires DAILY inspec-
tion of the torque motor output shaft. Remove any buildup of grass, string, cassette
tape, etc. that has wound around the shaft. Failure to do so will cause rapid failure of
the high pressure shaft seal and possible damage to output shaft. If oil is observed
to collect in disc, check torque motor hose fittings; if OK, then torque motor high
pressure seal must be serviced. Refer to Parts & Service Manual for rebuild proce-
dure.
2. Shoulder Plate Setting - the gutter broom mount plate is bolted to the truck chas-
sis extension plate. The gutter broom mount plate referred to as the shoulder plate
is adjusted so that when the hydraulic cylinder retracts the gutter broom it also
causes the broom to raise. Should this plate get out of adjustment, the broom may
retract but not raise. Two bolts hold this plate in position; one 3/4" bolt requiring a
1-1/8" wrench, and one 1/2" bolt requiring a 3/4" wrench and socket. With the gutter
broom in the DOWN position and off, set the shoulder plate as shown in the drawing.
NOTE : If shoulder plate is set with too much forward slope, the gutter broom will
strike the bottom of the cab or step when raised.
