Assembly

The sweeper is almost ready assembled from the factory. Only a few items remain to be assembled:

Actual model may vary from the illustration shown

Check the tire pressure on both wheels before use. Correct tire pressure is 24 psi/1.7 bar. Fig 9.

Use of machine with too low tire pressure can damage the tires! Right wheel bolt has links thread!

Handy Sweep - all models

1. Remove the bolts from the base unit then mount the handle bar and fix the bolts See figure 3.
2. Mount the wheels. Pay attention to that right wheel bolt have links thread and need be loosen/ tighten opposite direction.
3. Mount the gear shifter rod to the bracket as shown in figure 4.
4. Adjust the bolt (A) in bottom of gear shifter rod as shown on figure 5. The more the bolt is tightened, the harder the gear shifter rod presses against the gear plate. Adjust so that the gear shifter goes easily into all 4 positions on the gearplate and stays there.
5. Pull the cables up to the clutch handles. Separate the metal parts by turning them apart. Mount the part with the hook onto the clutch handle. Assemble the 2 metal parts and turn it until the cable is tight. See figure 6.
6. Mount swing handle with enclosed bolts and nuts. Hold the 2 nuts on the underside while removing the 2 bolts at the rubber sockets. The rubber sockets must be mounted under the handle plate. Attach the swing handle. Tighten the 2 bolts, while holding the 2 nuts on the underside. See figure 7.

Only HandySweep 710 models

1. Mount the brush on each side following the assembling method 1 or method 2. See figure 10 (M1 or M2)

Explanation to figure 10, A1:

A. Brush
B. Spacer cup
C. Bracket
D. Bolt

1. Mount the guard using the enclosed bolt, washer and nut. Follow the step 1-5 in figure 11. NB: The sideguards have to be mounted under the main guard.

Operation

Read the instruction manual for the engine, before use.

Before using the machine, remove bigger objects from the vicinity. Bigger objects can damage the sweeper. Also check that all bolts are tightened.

Control oil level before starting the engine. See included guide.

Start the engine:

1. Open the fuel tap.
2. On a cold engine open the choker. Note: By a hot engine choke is not required.
3. Turn the throttle cable to "start" position.
4. Pull the recoil starter gently until you feel resistance in the rope. Then pull quickly and energetic. Do not at any time let go of the recoil starter but glide it gently back and pull again.
5. 230V electric starter (HS650TGE / HS710TGE only). Plug the cord into electrical outlet and press the start button. After the engine is started remove the plug from the socket.
6. Regulate the choker until the engine is running smoothly.

Stop the engine:

1. Set the throttle to minimum/stop.
2. Turn the fuel tap to the "off" position.

Gear shifter

3 different forward gears and 1 reverse gear can be selected. See figure 13.

Always release the clutch handle before changing gear!

Clutch handle A - Forward and Reverse.

To operate the black clutch handle A in figure 12, activate the handle, so the sweeper will drive forward or backwards. To change gear, release the clutch handle and chose the desired gear with the gear shifter.

Pay attention while reversing. It is important that the area is cleared, for any obstacle before reversing. Never reverse the sweeper against a wall, tree or any other fixed obstacle.

Clutch handle B - Activation of brush.

To operate the black brush handle B in figure 12, push down the handle and it activates the brush.

The sweeper is equipped with a "dead man's handle", once released the brush and drive will stop immediately.

Operation safety zone

Do not leave the operation safety zone marked in figure 14, while working with the machine. If it is necessary to leave the operation zone, for example to readjust the rotary brush or to attach an accessory, first stop the engine.

Height adjustment of brush

When the brushes become worn it might be necessary to adjust the proximity of brushes to the working surface. To adjust the height of the brushes follow figure 8:

1. Remove the lock pin
2. Lift the front of the machine to free the brush and pull the supporting wheels out.
3. Remove or add the spacer ring (1 ring = approx. 5 mm)
4. Install support wheels, remove / add spacer ring, fasten with locking pin. (Hint: Complete one wheel at a time)

Angle adjustment of brush

The brush can be pivoted 20 degrees to either side. This is done by pushing the swing handle down, turning the brush and releases the handle so the detent clicks into place.

The swing handle is shown on Figure 7, H.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

The engine won't start:

1. Check sparkplug.
2. Check that the spark plug cap is fitted correctly.
3. Check if the motor is equipped with an ignition switch.
   (It must be activated)
4. Check if the motor is equipped with a fuel valve.
   (It must be activated)

The engine runs unevenly:

1. Check that the choke has been released.

2. Check fuel for impurities.

If the brush will not run:

1. Check that the clutch cable is adjusted correctly (figure 6).
2. Check that the belt is tight.

If the machine will not run:

1. Check that the clutch cable is adjusted correctly (figure 6).
2. Check the belt.

If the machine does not sweep effectively:

1. Check the distance between the brush and working surface.

Adjustment of cables:

Most often, the cable will be too loose. Adjust by turning the bolt on both cables until sufficiently taut. Adjustment of broom cable is also done where the cable goes into the gearbox. Adjust nuts.
