2. Designed purpose of use
The AVANT Bucket Broom is an attachment suitable for use with AVANT multi purpose loaders shown in
Table 1. The bucket broom is an excellent choice for removing sand, sanding gravel or other small trash from
larger yards, streets, or other even and solid surfaces, and serves well also in professional use. The powerful
collector will remove material from surfaces with a single pass, leaving the surface completely clear. With the
bucket type collector housing with large opening and strong rotating broom it is easy to collect larger objects
on practically any type of surface, which is not possible with other types of collecting units. A water spraying
system is available as an option to reduce dust formation during operation. Also, the watering system can be
easily installed later after the purchase of the bucket broom.
The strong broom is fitted on the front of the attachment, giving excellent visibility to the attachment. The
broom should rotate counter-clockwise when seen from the left side of the unit, and the best working results
are achieved when reversing with the loader while keeping the edge of the bucket on the ground. The edge
plate of the bucket is made from special steel that is particularly wear resistant, and it is replaceable. The
broom is rotated directly with a hydraulic motor. The broom unit is lifted with hydraulic cylinders making it
possible to empty the collector directly form the driver’s seat in similar way as a general bucket. The bucket
Broom can be utilised fully without any options or modifications on Avant loaders; on some models extra
counterweights are recommended. All loaders are intended only for outdoor use or especially well ventilated
areas due to exhaust gases of the loader. Using the broom is allowed only by using the controls of the loader
while sitting on the driver’s seat of the loader. For cleaning large yard or road areas we recommend the Avant
Collecting Broom.
The attachment has been designed to require as little maintenance as possible. The operator can perform
regular maintenance tasks. All repair work can’t be performed by the operator, and demanding repair and
maintenance operations are to be left for professional maintenance. All maintenance work must be done using
proper safety equipment. Spare parts must be identical with original specifications, which can be ensured by
using only original spare parts. A separate spare parts catalog may be available, consult your Avant dealer.
Familiarise yourself with the manual's instructions regarding service and maintenance. Please contact your
AVANT retailer if you have additional questions about the operation or maintenance of the equipment, or if
you require spare parts or maintenance services.
