    The deviation under 1 arises e.g. when we make (tight) turns with the machine when used as a sweeper. That will create damages to the machine in the end. If people want to make (tight) turns during work a wide angle PTO is necessary and available. Under normal conditions ( making straight passes) we will not create vibrations on the drive line if the machine is well set, see chapter 2.

    13.3 BRUSH KIT. The Turf Tidy can also be used as a sweeper. A brush kit is necessary to transfer the unit into a sweeper unit. Sweeping can be done on grass or hard surfaces. With grass sweeping, we advise using the standard rear roller 10 ( fig.7.). If we want to sweep hard areas, the wheel assembly is needed.

  • Page 21: High Lift Kit

    Fig.11. To assemble the dual wheels, continue as follows: Replace the standard wheel 8 for the new wheel 1 with welded ring on the existing rear axle. Use the longer nuts 3 and spring washers 2 Tighten all nuts 3 evenly and screw the threaded rods 5 at least 12 mm/ ½ “into these longer nuts.
  • Page 22 Fig.12. Next the high lift kit can be assembled as follows: Remove one of the vertical support bars 4 carefully. Replace it with an hydraulic cylinder, with the rod end facing down. Replace the other side the same way. The machine can be gently dropped on the wheels. Replace the standard switch valve 10, with the new one, having one input and 3x output.
