Introduction
This chapter highlights some of the basic adjustment and maintenance procedures required to keep
the machine performing efficiently.
Gutter Broom Adjustment
This section highlights the Gutter Broom adjustment. The machine can sweep with single brush,
kerb (nearside) or offside (road side) or simultaneously brushes working. When the offside is
deployed its important to set the brush close into the chassis by using either the mechanical stop
or the Variabrush control. Maintain a visual eye on its position when sweeping so as to avoid other
road traffic.
The Gutter Broom(s) are supported on a forward facing arm that is controlled by its lifting cylinder,
which allows for ‘float’ and ‘light sweep’ (Powasave) ground pressure control. The Gutter Broom
head drives itself out to the stopped position (variable) by the action of the rotating brush on the
ground.
