3.1 Description of product andaccessories

The sweeper makes possible both driven and non-driven sweeping. The brush drive is disconnected atthe dirt collector.

The framework consists of a durable and twist-freewelded structure.

The brush height is altered by means of the heightadjustable gang wheels.

An external high performance hydraulic motor,provided with a ram guard, drives the brushes. Thespeed of the rotating brushes depends on the oil flowand the equipment of the carrier vehicle.

The rotating brush shaft is equipped with a 520 mmdiameter polypropylene roller brush as standard.

A flexible rubber skirt is attached at the lower edgealong the entire length of the dirt collection bin. Thisprovides better dirt admission to the bin. Thecollection bin is guided evenly without damagesacross the ground.

Opening and closing the dirt collection bin is effectedfrom the carrier vehicle. This is either performed by apush-pull cable or hydraulically.

The Eco sweeper is suitable for carrier vehiclesequipped with a direct mounting option. A quick hitchoption is available or mounting to the engine frame.

A pendulum regulatory mechanism provides for level-compensation when working on uneven surfaces.

By means of mechanical and/or hydraulic anglingadjustment the sweeper can be swivelledapproximately 20° to the right or left.
