The TYMCO REGENERATIVE AIR SWEEPER can achieve your anticipated results while keeping cost at a minimum. However, to realize the full potential of the TYMCO REGENERA- TIVE AIR SWEEPER, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND ITS CAPABILITIES AND ADHERE CLOSELY TO OPERATING AND JOB FUNCTIONS FOR WHICH IT WAS DESIGNED. - Page 12 An inspection at the dump site, however, may reveal that there are rocks and large objects in the hopper. This is due to air currents in the TYMCO RE- GENERATIVE AIR SYSTEM having the potential to pick up various large objects and retain them.

ITEM DESCRIPTION RECOMMENDED SERVICE Blower Bearings Grease once a week or every 25 hours of operation. Blower Power Band Re-tension after initial 10 hours; then check every 150 hours. Blower Wheel Inspect monthly for wear. DO NOT REACH INTO BLOWER HOUSING FOR ANY REASON! Gutter Broom / Wafer Check DAILY for string, cassette tape, etc on motor shaft. -
Page 17: Hopper Assembly
A small leak diminishes this vacuum tremendously. To empty the load from the Model 210, the hopper is made to high dump into containers up to 60 inches (152.4 cm) high. Two large hydraulic cylinders are used to raise the hopper which pivots on a massive hinge. - Page 18 B. SERVICE WARNING: Never work in or around the hopper with auxiliary engine running. Always shut off engine and remove ignition key prior to servicing. Aside from routinely washing, the hopper assembly requires very little service. 1. Hopper Hinge - The hopper must be raised in order to access the four grease zerks used to lubricate the hinge.

Page 19: Blower Assembly
BLOWER ASSEMBLY A large turbine type blower is used in the TYMCO Model 210 to generate both the vacuum and pressure air stream used to sweep. The blower assembly is found on the left side of the sweeper (See Page 3) and is driven by an auxiliary engine through a sheave and belt system. - Page 20 Traveling too slow when sweeping paper can sometimes cause it to build up in front of the pick-up head; however, sand, dirt, and pea gravel must be swept slower to prevent trailing. Of course, the best way to find out what the TYMCO Model 210 will pick up is to use it! Higher speeds while maneuvering through repeated turns when sweeping a parking area will result in noticeable increased front tire wear.
- Page 21 D. SERVICE 1. Wash out dust separator DAILY! Failure to clean separator will cause premature wear of blower. Separator clean-out plug is located on the engine side of the separator just below the flange bearing. Be cautious of belt drives when opening the separator clean-out plug - SHUT OFF SWEEPER ENGINE! SEPARATOR CLEANOUT (M01384)
- Page 22 The second bearing is located on the right side of the separator next to the engine assembly. Both of these bearings require greasing once a week. BEARING (M01384) CAUTION: Grease engine side bearing only when engine is not running. Proximity to belt drives is hazardous when engine is running. Also note that the hopper must be raised to access bearing.
- Page 23 MODEL 210 SEPARATOR ASSEMBLY (M00795) When the 210 is being used, the blower draws air from the top of the hopper. As the air is being drawn, it passes first through the hopper screen and then into the separator inlet. Once in the separator, the air begins to spin and centrifugal force throws dust particles against the separa- tor wall where it is then expelled through the skimmer slot.

Page 24: Hydraulic System
Located on the hydraulic reservoir is the hydraulic system oil filter. The filter should be changed every 100 hours of sweeper service. The hydraulic oil filter is a spin-on automotive type (TYMCO P/N 5010080). NOTE: Change the break-in oil after initial 100 hours of operation. Then change oil once every 12 months or 1000 hours, whichever occurs first. - Page 25 (See Page 3). A relief valve is used to set the pressure for the Model 210 hydraulic system which is 1500 PSI (103.5 Bar) for the standard left-hand gutter broom option. For Dual Gutter Broom Option: 2500 PSI (172.5 Bar) for the primary pressure for the gutter brooms...

Page 26: Gutter Broom
GUTTER BROOM The Model 210 standard gutter broom utilizes a wafer type design which allows light debris, normally encountered in parking lot applications, to be brushed from the curb to the front of the sweeper’s pick-up head. Use the gutter broom only to clean next to the curb and gutters. Other- wise, keep it in the raised position to avoid unnecessary wear. - Page 27 2. CAB-OVER a. Spring - a long spring (1) is used to counter-balance the gutter broom assembly. As the gutter broom bristles wear out, this spring tension must be reduced by backing off the eye bolt nut (2) used to attach spring to the boom arm. However, when new bristles are installed on gutter broom, the spring must be re-tensioned to counter the increased weight of the new bristles.
- Page 28 6. For re-assembly, reverse procedure outlined above. NOTE: Be sure to tension gutter broom spring properly (if necessary) to pre- vent premature bristle wear. For more service information, consult your Parts & Service Manual or contact your local TYMCO Dealer. (M00692) 210OPTRS 2008...

Page 29: Pick-Up Head
PICK-UP HEAD The pick-up head is the most important component of the TYMCO Model 210 Regenerative Air Sweeper. But, because the pick-up head must be dragged on the pavement, it can be seriously damaged by careless operation. Even when the pick-up head is fully raised, It is still close to the pavement and care must be taken not to damage it in transit. - Page 30 NOTE: Rubber curtain material is critical for proper wear life and sweeper perfor- mance. Use only TYMCO replacement curtains in order to guarantee sweeper performance. To replace curtains, refer to Parts & Service Manual. C. PICK-UP HEAD ADJUSTMENT 1.
- Page 31 The pick-up head is locked in the UP or transit position hydraulically and electrically. A check valve in the hydraulic valve bank ensures the head from drifting down. CROSS SECTION THRU MODEL 210 PICK-UP HEAD (M00466) 2008 210OPTRS...

Page 34: Pressure Bleeder
PRESSURE BLEEDER The pressure bleeder is a small door located on the pick-up head pressure ring just below the pressure hose. When the pressure bleeder door is opened by controls within the cab, part of the pressure air stream is diverted to the atmosphere. This causes the vacuum beneath the pick-up head to be intensified;... -
Page 35: Dust Control System
A. OPERATION The following procedure is recommended for operation of the TYMCO® Model 210dust control system: 1. Fill the water tank. A 29 gallon (110 liter) water tank is located on the left side of the sweeper just under the dust separator (See picture below). - Page 36 3. Water Pump - The heart of the TYMCO water system is an electric pump capable of 5 GPM. The system relief valve is set at 25 PSI.

Page 37: Winterization
C. WINTERIZATION To winterize the Model 210 water system, the system should be filled with a solution of propylene glycol. Follow procedures outlined below: 1. Disconnect siphon hose from water tank. 2. Submerge hose end into container of propylene glycol. -
Page 38: Hand Hose Option
HAND HOSE OPTION A simple, yet effective, optional feature offered on the Model 210 sweeper is the hand hose at- tachment. The hand hose was designed to allow the cleaning of those areas that the sweeper can not get into, such as corners, between posts, ditches, etc. However, when using the hand hose, the street sweeping portion of the sweeper is disabled. -
Page 39: Auto Sweep Interrupt (Asi) (Optional)
AUTO SWEEP INTERRUPT OPTION DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION WARNING! The ASI System does not automatically inhibit the sweeper from backing up. The ASI System signals the operator when all the sweeper systems are safe to back up. Backing the sweeper is still in the control of the sweeper operator and care must be taken to avoid accident or injury from backing sweeper. - Page 40 210OPTRS 2008...
