Sealing Strips for
Broom Compartment
In order to assure good function of the
sweeper, a perfect condition of the seal-
ing strips is required, especially in order
to attain the prescribed low pressure in
the broom compartment, a clean
sweeping result and the less possible
wear of the sealing strips.
Check the sealing strips of the broom
compartment for wearing and damages
in regular intervals.
Replace defective sealing strips.
The ground clearance of the lateral and
rear sealing strips is adjustable (oblong
holes in the sealing strips).
Ground clearance:
sides approx. 1mm
rear approx. 4mm
Proceed to adjustment with an inflation
pressure of the pneumatic tyres of 6
bar. Height of the front sealing strip
(folding apron) cannot be adjusted. Be-
ing dragged, it has contact with the
floor.
5.5.4 Replace Side Broom
The side broom is located at the front
right of the machine (standard version).
Use the lever (chapter 3.2.1, Fig. 10/2)
to lift and lower the side broom.
The swinging area of the side broom is
limited by stop screws.
The side broom is driven by hydraulic
engine.
Fitting of a second side broom (left side)
for specific appliances is possible.
Proceed as follows for dismounting of
the side broom:
• Turn machine off and pull key switch.
• Secure machine by engaging park-
ing brake.
• Side broom lifted.
• Loosen hexagonal nut (Fig. 17/1) be-
low the side broom.
• Remove side broom.
Proceed in inverse order for mounting
of the side broom.
