Before Using Lawn Sweeper:
1.
Read all Safety Rules found on page 1.
How to Sweep Lawn:
1.
Remove large debris from lawn.
2.
Do not sweep if conditions are too wet or muddy.
3.
Attach Lawn Sweeper to tractor using supplied hitch pin. The multi-pronged
hitch allows the Lawn Sweeper to accomodate varying tractor hitch heights;
choose the appropriate setting so that Lawn Sweeper hitch tubes are
roughly level with the ground.
4.
Attach dump rope to tractor so that it cannot contact the brushes or wheels.
5.
Start tractor engine and tow Lawn Sweeper to lawn.
6.
Adjust brush height so that brushes extend roughly 1/2" below the tips of the
grass. For best performance, always set the brushes as high as possible to
minimize resistance on brushes and wheels.
7.
Engage tractor drive at its slowest speed and begin sweeping. Increase
tractor speed as required to throw material to the back of the hopper bag.
8.
Sweep in straight lines whenever possible and avoid sharp turns.
9.
Periodically check the sweeper while operating to ensure that wheels and
brushes are rotating smoothly and that nothing is wrapped around the
brushes or brush shaft.
10.
When filled, the hopper bag can be emptied by pulling the dump rope
forward.
How to Adjust Brush Height:
1.
Remove hairpin and detach adjustment lever from handle.
2.
Move handle downwards to raise the brush height or upwards to lower the
brush height.
3.
Align the handle pin with the nearest hole in the adjustment lever. Use the
top or bottom pin on the handle, whichever provides the best alignment.
4.
Secure adjustment lever to handle with hairpin.
