Do not tow this equipment on a highway or any other public thoroughfare.

Follow the maintenance instructions as outlined in this owner’s manual.
ATTACH THE SWEEPER TO THE TOWING VEHICLE
On a level surface, line up the towing vehicle with the sweeper. Use the hitch pin and spacers to adjust the
height of the tow hitch, as shown in the diagram. Once adjusted, insert the R Pin Ø3 to secure the hitch pin.
For best results, the hopper should b
e level with the ground at a minimum clearance of 5”. Secure the rope to
the tow vehicle.
ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE BRUSHES
Use the height adjustment handle to set the height of the brushes. For optimal results, the brush height should
be ½” below the tips of the grass. For sweeping other materials, you may need to adjust the height of the
brushes.
TOWING THE SWEEPER
Your sweeper is designed to work at speeds of 5mph and lower. You may damage the device or experience
sub-optimal results if exceeding 5mph. Your sweeper will work best on flat, smooth surfaces. If operating on a
slope, always tow the sweeper up or down the surface of the hill, not sideways along the slope.
DUMPING THE HOPPER
When dumping the hopper, use the rope to pull the basket forward. Dump the hopper regularly for best
performance.
CAUTION
Always keep body parts clear from and clothing detached from the sweeper and rope.
Keep sweeper away from fire or excessive heat will cause damage to the brushes and bag.
