Use the PowerSweep for sweeping
sand, stones, gravel, leaves and snow
on grass, concrete or asphalt and
removing standing water from solid
surfaces.
: To reduce risk of accidents or injury,
remove all obstacles and objects
from the work area.
: If the work area is very dry, spray it
with water if necessary to reduce
the amount of dust created.
: Push the PowerSweep steadily at
walking pace.
: Always keep the drive tube at a
shallow angle (see illustration).
The steeper the angle between the
drive tube and the ground, the more
difficult it is to control the
PowerSweep.
: Do not push the PowerSweep into
the ground.
Sweeping narrow areas
: Guide the sweeper drum at right
angles to the direction of travel (1).
Sweepings are thrown forwards,
ahead of the operator.
The PowerSweep pushes back
toward the operator.
Sweeping wide areas
: Guide the sweeper drum at an angle
to the direction of travel (1).
Sweepings are thrown forwards to
one side.
