Your new Trailing Lawn Sweeper is precision
manufactured using the finest in tools and
materials. Although it is ruggedly constructed,
do not subject it to misuse. CAUTION: DO NOT
PULL YOUR UNIT TOO CLOSE TO A FIRE –
the Brushes and Hamper will burn. Be sure to
wipe off your unit after each use. Store unit in a
dry place out of direct sunlight. Do not permit
the Lawn Sweeper to stand in the hot sun unless
it is in actual use.

You will find many work saving uses for your
Lawn Sweeper. Use it in early Spring to give
your lawn a good healthful scrubbing. Use it

throughout the Spring and Summer both before
and after mowing.

Sweeping before mowing stands up grass for a
clean, even cut - and protect your Mower from
sticks, stones, or nuts, which might damage the
blades of your Mower. After mowing, your
Lawn Sweeper will whisk away unsightly grass
clippings – leaving your lawn velvety smooth.

This Lawn Sweeper was in perfect condition
when it was shipped to you. If any damage is
found when it is unpacked, save the carton and
immediately request the delivery carrier to make
an inspection report.
