Operating Techniques
Operate the Clean Sweep at or near full throttle with its sweeper fins resting on the work surface.
IMPORTANT!
It is both tiring and unnecessary to lift or hold the fins from the work surface during sweeping.
When sweeping narrow areas such as sidewalks, the Clean Sweep can be used to throw material directly ahead of the operator. Clearing wider areas may require sweeping at an angle to create windrows to one side of the path being cleared.
Windrows of lighter materials often can be combined into one main row or pile for eventual pickup, while heavy or bulky material may need to be collected
To pull debris from corners, reverse sweeper drum rotation by turning the powerhead over (throttle facing “up”).
WARNING!
Reversing the Clean Sweep will cause debris to be thrown back toward the operator. When reversing the Clean Sweep, use lower throttle settings and beware that thrown debris may also affect your footing!
