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