Inspect the general condition of the unit. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
Remove all debris and other materials that may have accumulated to the brush. Clean after each use.
Then use a premium quality lightweight machine oil to lubricate all moving parts.
Never use a "pressure washer" to clean your unit. Water can penetrate tight
areas of the machine and its transmission case and cause damage to spindles,
gears, bearings, or the engine. The use of pressure washers will result in
shortened life and reduce serviceability.
Adjusting Height of guide wheels and brush
Once the brush gets worn it is necessary to adjust the height of the brush i.e. how close it is to the
surface to sweep. This adjustment takes place by adjustment of gauge wheels. The brush has two
adjustable gauge wheels. The vertical adjustment of the gauge wheels is done by the placement of a
series of plastic rings above or below the mounting tube. The suggested adjustment for the gauge
wheels is the point at which the brush sweeps 5cm or 10cm of surface area when the machine is
parked. The number of top and lower plastic rings is to be the same for both sides.
