HOPPER LIFT / SIDE BROOM LEVER See Figure 9
The Hopper Lift/Side Broom lever is located to the left side of
the drive compartment. The lever is a three position control that
operates the hopper lift, side broom and optional left side
broom.
NOTE
The Hopper Lift lever will not function until the hopper has
been rotated to clear the body of the sweeper.
The lever is spring centered from the rear position. The center
position turns OFF the side broom (or brooms) and is the HOLD
position when dumping the hopper. The lever is detonated in
the forward position. Move the lever forward to turn ON the
side broom when sweeping or to LOWER the hopper when
dumping the hopper.
Move the lever back to RAISE the hopper when dumping.
Release the lever when the hopper has reached the desired
height. The lever will return to the center HOLD position.
HOPPER DUMP/RETURN CONTROL LEVER See Figure 9
The Hopper Dump/Return lever is located to the left of the drive compartment. The lever is a two position
control that operates the hopper dump system. The lever is spring loaded to the center position which
“STOPS” rotation of the hopper.
To rotate the hopper, move the lever forward to the dump position and hold. Release the lever when the
hopper reaches the desired position. The return the hopper after dumping, move the lever back to the
RETURN position. The hopper will rotate back and the hopper will lower to the seated position. Release the
lever once the hopper has been seated in the body of the sweeper.
WARNING
Never turn off the engine with the hopper in the lifted
position.
THROTTLE CONTROL See Figure 10
The throttle control is located to the left of the choke on
the console. To raise the throttle to the full throttle, grasp
the lever and push the lever to the locking notch. To
lower the throttle to idle, grasp the lever, push it up and to
the left away from the locking notch. Let the lever lower
until it rests at the bottom of the slot. The engine must
be operating at full governed speed of 2600 “No Load”
RPM (broom control off and the machine sitting still) to
maintain optimum machine travel speed, hopper loading
and dust control. Before turning of the key and stopping
the engine, return the lever to the idle position.
CHOKE CONTROL See Figure 2
LP and Diesel powered engines do not have a choke. The choke is located to the left of the steering column
and the right of the throttle on the machine console. The choke governs the mixture of air and fuel during the
combustion cycle of the engine operation. The choke should be pulled out during the start of the engine and
then gradually pushed back in after the engine warms up.
