STARTING ENGINE
1. Make sure the fuel flow valve, located on the fuel tank, is “ON.”
2. The ignition switch is located on remote operator control panel. Insert key
(A) and turn clockwise until engine starts (C). Release key and it will return
to run position (B). Use choke and hand throttle as necessary.
3. Allow engine to idle and warm up a few minutes.

ADJUSTMENT OF BELT TENSIONER
There are two belt tensioners on the Sweep Star V62. One
controls the tension on the belt from the engine to blower
shaft the other controls the belt on the finger or brush reel.
The proper tension of the idler should be 12 to 15 as per the
gauge (A) on the side of the tightener. Over tightening the belt
will shorten the life of the belt and the machine may not per-
form to the best of its ability. To adjust belt tensioner, loosen
bolt holding tensioner. Bring idler pulley tight to belts and turn
tensioner into belts to 15°. Tighten holder bolt.
