SWEEPER WORKING HEIGHT SETTING

The sweeper working height lever is used to raise and lower the sweeper brush to the desired working height.

Move the lever outwards to disengage it from the working height notches, then push forwards to lower or pull backwards to raise the working height. Release the lever into the required position and ensure that it locks securely into the appropriate notch.

There are six working height positions. These are indicated by the numbered notches, 1-6.

IMPORTANT: Always select the working height to suit operating conditions. It is recommended that for optimum collection performance the working height of the sweeper is selected to correspond with the height of cut of the cutterdeck as indicated by the numbers 1-6.

EMPTYING THE SWEEPER COLLECTOR

Fig.1

The viewing hatch in the front of the sweeper collector housing can be used to check if the collector is full. (Refer fig.1)

WARNING: PREVENT ACCIDENTS - Ensure that the tractor is sta- tionary and the drive to the sweeper is disengaged before emptying the grass collector.

The grass collector can be emptied by extending the tipping lever to its full extent and pulling it forwards. The grass hopper will rotate around its piv- ots, and allow the grass clippings to empty out. (Refer fig.2)

Fig.2

The floor of the grass collector will lift as the hopper rotates and this assists with emptying. Two cables connecting the floor to the hopper provide this function.

When empty, close the grass collector by allowing the hopper to gently drop down. The collector floor will naturally resume its level position.

Allow the tipping lever to drop back into its fully retracted position.
