LP GAS SYSTEM
The propane powered Model 2260 is identical to the “standard” gasoline powered 2260, except that it’s fuel
system has been modified to operate on LP vapor fuel.
The LP fuel system consists of several components not found on the gasoline system. The LP fuel system
also contains the associated mounting hardware and plumbing for the LP components. The major LP
components are as follows:
1.
An LP carburetor
2.
A combination water heated vaporizer and regulator
3.
A combination LP fuel line filter and lock off valve LP fuel tank and fittings
These components are factory set, attempts at adjusting these components should only be made by autho-
rized service personnel.
LP GAS VAPORIZER-REGULATOR QUICK CHECK
Turn on the ignition switch and open the radiator cap. Check the coolant for bubbles. If bubbles are present,
the vaporizer may have a leaking gasket or may have developed a pinhole leak, allowing the LP fuel to enter
the cooling system.
LP GAS FUEL TANK
The LP tank is located on top of the engine cover in the tank mounting bracket.
Use only the proper size and type of LP tank. The 2260 LP powered sweeper uses 33.5 lb. horizontal liquid
withdraw tank. The designation of the tank is DOT 4BW-240.
PNEUMATIC WHEELS
The pneumatic wheels should be maintained at an inflation pressure of 100 PSI. Since the wheel rims are of a
split rim construction, the outer bolt circle maintains the wheel assembly in one piece when the wheels are
demounted from the machine.
WARNING
Fully deflate tires before removing the rim bolts.
