2. When transporting sweeper from one location to
another, support flex tip reel, broom or thatching reel.
with transport hooks.

Adjust Reel Support Arm

When machine is operated, gauge wheel should ride over
the turf evenly. If reel support arm has a tendency to
bounce, spring setting is too tight. If gauge wheel scars turf,
spring setting is too light.
To adjust reel support arm:
1. Pull rake lever rearward to lower flex tip reel or broom.

2. Position a spring scale on transport hook and lift up.
Tension necessary to lift gauge wheel off ground should
be 30–50 lbs.
3. If tension is not 30–50 lbs., adjustment is made by
tightening or loosening adjustment screw on
counterbalance spring.
4. Perform this procedure on both sides of sweeper.
Note: Because of added weight of drive components, the
R.H. spring will require a tighter setting than the L.H.
spring.

Adjust Rake Depth

Flex tip reel should be adjusted so rake tips slightly touch
surface but do not penetrate turf. If rake tips penetrate turf,
improper debris pickup could result.
1. Position sweeper on a level surface.
2. Loosen locknut on depth adjustment bolt so it can be
turned.

3. Turn depth adjustment bolt until rake slightly contacts
top of turf grass. If a broom is installed, slight contact
should be made with surface. When broom is operating,
the contact width surface should be about 1" wide
across entire length of broom.
