HAND HOSE ASSEMBLY (OPTIONAL)
WARNING: Never direct hand hose nozzle at another person as serious
injury may occur.
The optional auxiliary hand hose is designed to clean areas inaccessible to the sweeper during
normal operation, such as shallow catch basins, highway medians, railing, etc. The standard
hand hose is a flexible hose with an aluminum 52 inch extension. A shutter plate is placed be
-
tween the removable suction transition and hopper inlet so that the air suction will be diverted to
the hand hose.
OPERATION
1. STOP AUXILIARY ENGINE AND REMOVE IGNITION KEY.
2. Disconnect suction transition located on right side of sweeper from hopper and place
shutter plate (normally stored in cab) between transition and hopper suction inlet and
latch transition in place.
NOTE: This is done to divert total suction to hand hose hopper inlet. Hand hose
suction will be very weak if shutter plate is not installed properly.
3. Open hand hose inlet door at rear of hopper.
4. Loosen hand hose storage straps and swing hand hose assembly around until suction
inlet contacts door seal. Secure in this position with latch.
5. Start auxiliary engine, lower the pick-up head and turn on hopper water nozzle switch.
