DAILY WASHDOWN
A very important step in sweeper maintenance is a
washdown after each run. Use the following proce-
dure in washing the sweeper.
NOTICE
Wash down the machine after every sweeping shift.
1. Park the sweeper on a level surface.
2. Lower conveyor and start rotation using
Conveyor Up / Down (Figure M-4, #24) and
Conveyor Rotate (#26).
3. Lower the main broom using Main Broom Up /
Down / Rotate (Figure M-4, #25)
4. Fill the water tank until it overflows, allowing
the water to flush the conveyor belt. This will
remove heavy material from the conveyor and
conveyor deflectors.
Turn on the lower roller flush valve (Figure M-
3), located below the washdown hose quick dis-
connect coupling.
5. Periodically reverse the conveyor (for no more
than 30 seconds) to dislodge material between
the lower roller and the edge of the scraper bar.
