BRUSH ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

To change the angle of the brush:
1. Pull upwards on the Brush Lock Swivel Lock handle
(A, Figure 3) and hold. This will release the brush
swivel lock pin (B).
2. With the brush assembly resting on the ground,
rotate the brush frame to the right or left.
3. When the brush is in the proper position, release the
brush lock swivel lock handle. The brush assembly
will be locked in the selected position. NOTE: The
brush can be positioned to either the right, left or
straight ahead.
CAUTION
If brush height is set too low, brush can drive
machine rearward when attachment clutch is
engaged. Engage brush slowly with brush set at
proper height.

BRUSH HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

For hard surfaces, adjust the caster wheels so that brush
just touches surface. The brush works best with the
brush properly leveled. To adjust the brush height:
1. Move the brush to a dusty, flat surface. Leave the
engine running.
2. Start the brush at a slow speed. Run the brush in a
stationary position for 30 seconds.

brush. (See Figure 4)
