6. With the brush base in the up position, insert the brushes into
the seat of the plate under the base until the three buttons fit into
the holes of the plate (see figure 23).
7. Turn the brush so that the buttons are pushed towards the
retaining springs until the brush is clamped into place. Figure
23 shows the correct direction to rotate the right side brush
when installing the brush.
8. The left brush has to be rotated in the opposite direction for
installation.
WARNING: Use gloves to protect your hands when
performing the steps listed above.
NOTE: It is recommended to swap daily the position of the right
brush with the left brush or vice versa. If the brushes are old and
show deformed bristles, then it is better to reassemble them in
the same position (the right to the right side and the left to the left
side). This will help avoid overload to the brush motors due to the
inclination of the bristles, and also to avoid excessive vibrations
(see figure 24).
9. To remove the brushes, reverse the appropriate procedure.
How to Install and Adjust the Brush Housings on the Rotary
Brush Head Unit
Follow this procedure to install the brush housings and side
skirts:
1. Mount the left brush housing onto the two studs on the brush
head unit.
2. Attach the brush housing to the brush head with the two knobs
(see figure 25).
3. Follow steps 1 and 2 to mount the right brush housing to the
brush head unit.
4. To remove the brush housings, follow the above procedure in
the reverse order.
Follow this procedure to adjust the side skirts:
1. Loosen the two clamping knobs holding the brush housing on
both sides of the brush head unit (see figure 25).
2. With the brushes on the floor, position the skirts such that they
are touching the floor with a slight flare to the outside. NOTE:
Too much flare on the side skirts will cause the brushes
to interfere with the side skirts during operations.
3. Tighten the clamping knobs on both brush housings.
