SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM MAINTENANCE The sweeping broom must be serviced at regular intervals to maintain good sweeping performance. The following maintenance steps should be completed every 50 hours of operation. Note: Side skirts must be in the raised position to fully open broom access door. Clean built-up dirt from the inside of the broom housing.
SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM LEVEL ADJUSTMENT The sweeping broom has a level adjustment to control the height of just the right end of the broom. This allows the broom to be adjusted so that it runs parallel to the floor. The adjustment bolts are located at the right end of the broom, inside the broom access door. Once the broom level is set at the factory, further adjustment is seldom necessary.
SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM BEARING REPLACEMENT There are sealed ball bearings in the idler hub (on the right end of the broom) and in the drive hub (on the left end of the broom). Whenever the broom is removed for service, these bearings should be checked. Binding, noisy operation or excessive play indicate that the bearings should be replaced.
SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM MOTOR REMOVAL Attention read before servicing: Removal method A: Follow steps (1-8) to remove the broom motor when the machine’s battery can be removed. This is the preferred method and needs the proper overhead lift equipment to remove the battery. Removal method B: Follow steps (9-19) when field servicing, when the battery can’t be removed.
SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM BELT REMOVAL / ADJUSTMENT Attention: Remove the battery or the recovery tank to allow the needed access for servicing the broom motor belt easily. To remove the broom belt . . . WARNING! Turn the key switch off and disconnect the battery connector before servicing. Lower the sweeping broom to the floor, and then open both the upper and lower left side access doors.
SWEEPING SYSTEM BROOM HOUSING SKIRTS Rubber skirts are installed at the front and the sides of the broom housing to keep debris and water confined to the sweeping area of the machine. For good sweeping performance, all skirts must be in good condition and properly adjusted. The front Skirt (Y) (see Figure 11) keeps litter from being thrown out of the broom housing, once it enters.
Page 40
SWEEPING SYSTEM OUTER SIDE SKIRT ADJUSTMENT Adjust the outer broom housing skirts (LT and RT side) if the machine leaves water on the floor when turning. Inspect the skirts before adjusting; replace them if they are nicked, torn or if the wiping edge is worn to a large radius. To adjust the fold over on the outer skirts (operating position).
