Replacing the sealing skirts

Direction of travel

The sealing skirts fulfil an important function. They retain the partial vacuum in the area round the brushes which is es- sential so that the sweeper can function properly. They ensure that sweeping can take place without clouds of dust being formed at the same time. If the sealing skirts are damaged or worn out, they must be replaced immediately.

nPark the sweeper and switch off the engine.

nRemove the retaining screws and detach the sealing skirts.

nFit new skirts, and align them as follows:

The side skirts should be adjusted so that they clear the ground by 1–3 mm.

The rear skirt should be adjusted so that they clear the ground by 1–5 mm.

nThe front skirt cannot be adjusted. Replace the skirt as soon as you see signs of excessive wear.
