  • Page 21: Sweeping System

    SWEEPING SYSTEM MAIN BROOM MAINTENANCE Since the Main Broom Motor always turns in the same direction, the bristles on the broom eventually become curved, reducing sweeping performance. Sweeping performance can be improved by removing the broom and turning it around (end-for-end). This procedure, known as “rotating” the main broom, should be done once every 30 hours of operation.
