POWER SWEEPER
PRECAUTIONS
Follow "General Precautions and Instructions" in Sec-
tion One of this manual, and all instructions in the Po-
wer Sweeper Attachment owner's manual (part number
101.00915) for the safe use of the Power Sweeper.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Deactivation of the PTO Reverse Lockout (see WAR-
NING in Sweeper owner's manual) is not to be done
on the tractor models in this updated owner's manual.
New design lockouts automatically disengage during
the conversion of these models for the Sweeper or any
other front-mounted attachment.
Do not put hands, feet or any other part of your body
near the sweeper brush or any other rotating part.
Keep the work area clear of people and pets. Do not let
children come near. Be extremely careful on gravel or
paved surfaces to direct the discharge away from peo-
ple and passing vehicles.
Wear a dust mask or respirator for protection when
sweeping dusty surfaces.
Wear eye protection goggles stamped "Z87" (for ANSI
Standard Z87).
Before transport or storage of the unit adjust the casters
of the sweeper so the bristles do not touch the ground.
Thoroughly inspect the surface to be swept and remove
objects which could be thrown by the sweeper or cause
it to run off course. Remove wires, glass objects, door-
mats, boards, toys and other obstructions.
Always put the unit in gear before engaging the PTO to
power the sweeper. If the sweeper bristles engage the
ground when the unit is in neutral, the sweeper will drive
back the unit.
On irregular terrain with hillocks, prepare to let go of the
controls to stop all motion if the brush suddenly drives
the unit backward.
Do not use the sweeper on any surface where you
cannot keep tour footing or the unit could overturn. Walk
behind the unit. Disengage the PTO when going up or
down a slope. Work across the slope when sweeping or
thatching.
If using the sweeper on rooftops, set up barricades so
you will not come too close to the edges. Be sure the
surface is dry and does not pitch more than 5 degrees
(1/2" per foot).
Do not drive the sweeper onto frozen lakes or ponds
unless the ice is thick and strong enough to support the
combined weight of you, the sweeper and the unit.
