Main Broom Height Check and Adjustment

Note: Brooms with harder or softer
bristles are available. This
procedure is applicable to all
types of brooms.
Check
1 Check the main broom height as shown below:
• Drive the machine on a level floor.
• Turn on the machine and keep it stationary,
lower the main broom and turn it on for a few
seconds, so that the broom leaves its print on
the floor.
• Lift the main broom, then move the machine
and turn it off
• Check that the main broom print (A), along
its length, is 2 to 4 cm wide.
• If the print (A) is not within specifications,
adjust the main broom height as shown
below
Adjustment
2 Turn the knob (B) taking into account what
follows (see also the descriptive plate (C)):
• to increase the print width, turn the knob
counter-clockwise
• to decrease the print width, turn the knob
clockwise
Note: The adjustment of the broom
print on the floor must be
performed periodically, also
according to the consumption of
the bristles.
3 Perform step 1 again to check the proper
adjustment of the main broom distance from the
floor.
4 When the broom is too worn and can no
longer be adjusted, replace it according to the
procedure shown in the relevant paragraph
Caution! If the main broom print is
excessive (larger than 4 cm),
the machine regular operation
is affected and the moving
parts or electrical components
can overheat, thus reducing
machine life. Pay careful
attention when performing
the main broom height check,
and always use the machine
according to the indicated
conditions.
