WARNING
ADJUSTMENT
Before leaving operator's seat, lower lift arms
and put attachment on the ground. Engage brake,
stop engine, remove key, and remove seat belt.
Start the broom at a low speed; then, lower it so the
bristle tips touch the ground. Run the broom in a stationary position for ten seconds.
Raise the broom and back away. Switch off the engine
and remove the key. The brush pattern left in the dust
should be two to four inches wide, running the length of
the brush. See Figure 4.
Check Brush Pattern
A properly adjusted brush offers the best sweeping
performance. To check the brush pattern, move the
pick-up broom to a dusty, flat surface. Set the skid
steer parking brake and leave the engine running.
Figure 4. Brush Pattern
If the brush pattern is not two to four inches wide,
adjust brush pattern accordingly.

WARNING
WARNING
1. Loosen the jam nuts above and below the plate on
both sides of the sweeper hood. See Figure 5.
2. Turn adjustment bolt clockwise to make a wider
pattern, or counterclockwise to make a narrower
pattern.
3. Tighten jam nuts and check the new brush pattern.
NOTE: To extend brush life make sure bolts on
both sides are adjusted evenly.
1. Start the skid steer at idle speed and raise the
brush head.
2. Use low engine speeds to save wear and tear on
the sweeper and to prevent dust from billowing up
during sweeping.
NOTE: Do not engage the brush at high engine
speeds. This damages the sweeper and motor.
3. Engage the brush head and lower it to the ground.
4. Increase skid steer engine rpm to sweeping speed.
Travel forward at 5 mph or less.
Adjust Flaps and Plate Shield
Be sure to adjust the metal plate shield and rubber
flaps. The flaps should be all the way down when brush
sections are new. As sections wear, raise the flaps to
avoid dragging on the ground.
OPERATION
When improperly operated, power unit can roll
over or upset. Use of rollover protective structure
(ROPS) with seat belt securely fastened will reduce
the possibility of injury or death if rollover or upset
occurs.
Look down and to the rear and make sure area
is clear before operating in reverse.
Never direct discharge toward people, animals,
or property.
Only engage power when equipment is at
ground operating level. Always disengage power
when equipment is raised off the ground.
NOTICE
■ Shifting brush rotation from forward to reverse
while the brush is rotating damages the sweeper
and motor.
5. When sweeping forward, rotate the brush so debris
goes over the brush and into the bucket (Figure 7).
Figure 6. Forward Sweeping Motion
6. When sweeping in reverse, rotate the brush so
debris is pushed into the bucket, similar to
sweeping into a dustpan (Figure 8).
Read and understand the pick-up broom and skid steer
operator's manuals before operating the pick-up
broom. Failure to do so may result in death, serious
personal injury or property damage.
Never raise the broom more than a few inches off the
ground when traveling from job site to job site.
Carry the broom low to the ground so that the operator
has good visibility and stability. Avoid any sudden
movements.

Before Each Use
Perform daily maintenance as indicated in the Maintenance Schedule.
MAN0661 (8/10/2007)
Page 13
Run the sweeper with the skid steer at a slow idle.
WARNING
DANGER
Check for hydraulic leaks or other problems and make
corrections, if necessary, before using the sweeper.
During Use
Dumping Loads
Carry the sweeper low to the ground so that the operator has good visibility and stability. Avoid any sudden
movements. Avoid excessive downward pressure on
the brush sections to prevent excessive wear. A two to
four inch wide pattern for the broom is sufficient for
most applications. Ensure that the adjustment bolts are
equally adjusted in order to prevent an uneven wear
pattern.
Directing Debris
Observe wind direction. Sweeping with the wind makes
sweeping more effective and helps keep debris off the
operator.
Dirt and Gravel
To keep dust at a minimum, plan your sweeping for
days when it is overcast and humid, or after it has
rained. Also, sweep so the wind blows at your back or
in the direction the brush head is angled.
Low brush speeds and moderate ground speeds work
best for cleaning debris from hard surfaces. Brush
speeds that are too fast tend to raise dust because of
the aggressive sweeper action.
AVOID INJURY OR DEATH FROM POWER
LINES:
• Stay away from power lines.
• Electrocution can occur without direct contact.
• Check clearances before raising implement.
• Do not leave the operator's seat if any part of
the tractor or implement contacts electric lines.
Transport to dumping location before raising. Only
dump load while on a firm level surface.
Slowly raise load to required dumping height. Rotate
pick-up broom forward to empty the bucket.
To sweep gravel, use just enough brush speed to roll
gravel, not throw it.
Heavy Debris
For two inches or more of heavy debris, medium/high
and ground speeds of less than five mph are recommended.
Sweep path less than the full width of the broom.
Increase engine speed if debris becomes very heavy.
Transporting
When improperly operated, power unit can roll
over or upset. Use of rollover protective structure
(ROPS) with seat belt securely fastened will reduce
the possibility of injury or death if rollover or upset
occurs.
Always follow safety rules, carry low to ground and
travel slowly.
Only raise a load when dumping.
Figure 8. Dump Position
GUTTER BRUSH (OPTIONAL)
The gutter brush is for sweeping forward only.
When sweeping next to curbs or walls with a gutter
brush, only the bristle tips should touch the vertical surface.
When not using the gutter brush for a short period,
raise it 1-2 inches (25-51mm) off the ground with the
tension chain. During extended periods of non-use,
unhook hydraulic hoses from the gutter brush motor,
remove the gutter brush assembly and connect
hydraulic hoses to run only the main.

the ground on a properly adjusted gutter brush.
■ To prevent contaminates from damaging the
hydraulic system, cap hoses and couplers when
the gutter brush is not in use.
Adjust Gutter Brush Height
When the gutter brush height is properly adjusted, bristles contact the ground as shown in Figure 9.
Figure 10. Gutter Brush and Hood Alignment
To adjust the gutter brush swing:
1. Loosen nuts.
2. Adjust the screw, turning it in for less swing and
turning it out for more swing.

4. Adjust the tension chain so it holds the gutter brush
in place.
5. Tighten the bolts holding the motor mounting plate
and check the adjusted brush.
Adjust Gutter Brush Swing
A properly adjusted gutter brush extends the main
brush’s sweeping path, leaving no streaks between the
two paths. For this to happen, the center of the gutter
brush must line up with the outside edge of the
sweeper.
Figure 11. Adjust Gutter Brush Swing
Replace the Gutter Brush
1. Remove four screws to detach the worn gutter
brush for the gutter brush plate.
