MAINTENANCE
HOPPER
The hopper (Fig. 92) houses the debris compartment, the dust control fi lter and the removable dust baffl e. For maximum performance and service
life, keep the hopper clean and inspect the seals and fl aps daily. Clean the hopper prior to parking the sweeper at the end of the day. A clean
hopper will make inspecting the fl aps and seals much easier and will prevent premature deterioration of hopper components. Do not leave the
hopper full of debris while in storage or when parked for extended periods of time. Once the hopper has been emptied the insides of the hopper
should be rinsed out with water.
DUST CONTROL FILTER
The dust control fi lter (Fig. 93) should be checked daily for damage and cleaned if necessary. A damaged fi lter must be replaced to prevent
damage to other dust control system components. Inspect the fi lter for tears in the fi lter media or excessive dirt lodged in the pleats. A tear in
the fi lter media will allow dirt to pass through the fi lter and can be easily seen as a dirty patch on the top side on the fi lter. Cleaning of the fi lter is
necessary when the fi lter shaker fails to adequately clean the pleats.
CHECKING THE DUST CONTROL FILTER
1. Park the machine on a smooth level surface, turn the key switch to the "O" position and engage the parking brake.
2. Raise the hopper lid for access to the fi lter compartment.
3. Turn the fi lter latch, lift the fi lter frame and remove the fi lter.
4. Inspect the panel fi lter for tears and clean or replace if necessary.
5. Reinstall the fi lter, lower the fi lter frame and engage the fi lter latch.
6. Close the hopper cover.
CLEANING THE DUST CONTROL FILTER
Clean the dust control fi lter when the shaker fails to adequately clear the fi lter. The fi lter can be cleaned with compressed air not to exceed 100
PSI. To clean the fi lter with compressed air, apply the compressed air to the top side of the panel to back fl ush the lodged dirt from the fi lter pleats.
Be careful to not damage the fi lter media while cleaning. The fi lter can be cleaned with a solution of soap and water. If this cleaning method is
used do not use the fi lter until it has completely dried.
REPLACING THE DUST CONTROL FILTER WHEN DAMAGE IS EVIDENT
1. Park the machine on a smooth level surface, turn the key switch to the "O" position and engage the parking brake.
2. Open the hopper compartment cover to gain access to the fi lter compartment.
3. Turn the latch on the hinged frame counterclockwise and lift the frame.
4. Remove the fi lter panel.
5. Install replacement fi lter, lower the hinged frame and engage the latch.
6. Lower the fi lter compartment cover.
