WARNING!

It is possible to shift to the left or to the right the 3rd broom arm (23, Fig. G) safely, only when the arm extension (22) is to the left or right end of stroke.

•Remove the clip (1, Fig. I) and disconnect the tie rod (2) from the skirt (3).

•Remove the skirt (3) by withdrawing it from the hinges (4).

•Turn on the machine and start working again.

•Install the skirt (3) in the reverse order of removal, after stopping the machine and turning off the engine.
