Operating Instructions
Using the PowerSweep
During break-in period
Use the PowerSweep for sweeping
sand, stones, gravel, leaves and snow
on grass, concrete or asphalt and
removing standing water from solid
surfaces.
A factory new machine should not be run
at high revs (full throttle off load) for the
first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period.

:
:
To reduce risk of accidents or injury,
remove all obstacles and objects
from the work area.
If the work area is very dry, spray it
with water if necessary to reduce
the amount of dust created.
As all moving parts have to bed in during
the break-in period, the frictional
resistances in the engine are greater
during this period. The engine develops
its maximum power after about 5 to 15
tank fillings.
:
Do not push the PowerSweep into
the ground.
Push the PowerSweep steadily at
walking pace.
During operation
Sweeping narrow areas
After a long period of full-throttle
operation, allow engine to run for a while
at idle speed so that the heat in the
engine can be dissipated by flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
1
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After finishing work
Wait for engine to cool down. Drain the
fuel tank . Store the machine in a dry
place. Check tightness of nuts and
screws (not adjusting screws) at regular
intervals and retighten as necessary.

Always keep the drive tube at a
shallow angle (see illustration).
The steeper the angle between the
drive tube and the ground, the more
difficult it is to control the
