HAND HOSE OPERATION
WARNING
: Never direct hand hose nozzle at another person or serious
injury may occur.
The optional auxiliary hand hose is designed to clean areas inaccessible to the sweeper, 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 between 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 on back 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.
