at the factory; however, it is recommended that a
few drops of light oil should be added to the brush
shaft bearings twice a year Also. the wheels should
be removed every two years to clean sprockets, chain
and gears After cleaning apply an even coat of light
grease, See figures 29 through 31. NOTE: Do not
overtighten wheel bolt and nut upon reassembly to
sweeper housing Wheel must be free to move in slot
with height adjustment° See figure 29 and 30,

right hand.sideo When removing gears/sprockets
and chain make notes on position of all washers
and snap rings.
2, Cover must be removed to service
chain, sprockets and pawL (It is not necessary
to remove cover if you are only cleaning and
oiling the chain).. See figures 31 and 32
3. Removal and reassembly of chain requires that
gear and sprockets be held in position with
chain and slipped over both shafts, See figure
31.
4. The pawl, inside ratchet sprocket, has a curved
end (side) and a flat end (side). See figure 31.
When re-assembling ratchet sprocket and pawl,
fill the inside with grease, Re-assemble the
wheel and turn wheel, if the brushes drive
(rotate) in both directions, the pawl is assembled
incorrectly, remove and flip pawl over° If the
