6. Stop conveyor rotation and return the main
broom and conveyor to transport mode. Return
the lower roller flush valve to its original posi-
tion.
DANGER
Falling hopper can cause severe injury or
death. Hopper support bar must be in position
before anyone goes under hopper.
7. Tilt the hopper using Hopper dump (Figure M-
4, #28) and install the hopper support bar
(Figures M-5, M-6).
8. With the conveyor running, use a high pressure
water hose (connected to a hydrant or other
high volume source) to flush the conveyor and
belt backing plate. If a high pressure hose is
not available, use the sweeper’s washdown hose
(Figure M-7).
9. Flush out the hopper, all undercarriage parts,
side broom(s), and dirt shoes.
