Before operating this attachment, always
visually inspect the surrounding area for
any objects that could be damaged if
contacted.
Exposure
to
crystalline silica dust along with other
hazardous dusts may cause serious or
fatal respiratory disease. It is
recommended
to
use personal protective
equipment during the operation of any
attachment that may cause a high level
of dust.
(If the broom has been placed on the two
rest brackets (on left & right side), lift the
broom slightly, turn off the skid steer, and
raise the brackets before starting your
task.)
1.
Position the desired angle as
previously outline in this manual.
2.
Position the broom's bristles about
2"
(51
mm) above the surface to be
swept and engage the skid steer's
auxiliary hydraulic circuit. Notice the
direction of the bristle rotation and if
not correct, reverse the flow by
selecting the opposite direction on
the auxiliary circuit switch, pedal or
lever.
3.
Allow the broom's bristle rotation to
come up to speed before raising the
engine RPMs on the skid steer.
4.
Rest the broom on the surface to be
swept and move the skid steer in the
forward direction at a speed no
faster than
6
MPH
(9.6
km/h).
Excessive
downward pressure
on
the broom will
accelerate bristle wear and will not
result in better sweeping efficiency.

Occasionally, clean out any limbs,
vines, twine or trash that may
accumulate around the broom's
bristles.
