1. General information
With the Snow sweeper fitted to the front, and
the Salt and sand spreader behind, the Egholm
2100 clears snow and leaves a non-slip path
behind it in one workflow.
The Snow sweeper clears snow up to 15 cm
deep and follows the terrain perfectly over
inclines and other obstacles.
With the hydraulic steering the Snow sweeper is
set to the wind direction and the
adjustable sweeping direction makes it possible
to clear snow even from places where the
machine is unable to turn.
Useful tips
Tip the Snow sweeper up on the A-frame when
you do not intend to use it for a long period to
save wear on the brushes.
Wipe the snap couplings before fitting, as this
protects the hydraulic system.
Daily cleaning and maintenance will extend the
lifetime of both the machine and the tool.

2. Operator’s manual
2.1 Assembly / Disassembly
1. It is recommended that the hydraulic hoses should
be run over the guard of the Snow sweeper to keep
them clear and free from dirt when the Snow
sweeper is fitted. (Picture 1)
2. The locking handle on the A-frame of the basic
machine must be in the open position. (Picture 2)
3. Drive the basic machine right up to the A-frame of the
Snow sweeper, so the A-frames fit into each other.
4. Raise the A-frame with lever A on the left-hand side
of the basic machine until the Snow sweeper is
freely suspended above the ground. (Picture 3)
5. Lock the Snow sweeper in place with the locking
handle on the A-frame. (Picture 2)
6. Raise the Snow sweeper completely up with lever A
on the left-hand side of the basic machine. (Picture 3)
7. Stop the machine. (See the operator’s manual for
the basic machine, section 2.2)
8. Hook the large spring on the Snow sweeper into the
socket on the instrument panel. (Picture 4)
9. Fit the hydraulic hoses which swing the Snow
sweeper on the B-connector on the left-hand side of
the machine. (Picture 3)

2. Operator’s manual
10. Fit the hydraulic hoses which rotate the brush on
the D-connectors on the right-hand side of the
machine. (Picture 1)
11. Attach the hydraulic hoses with the rubber strap
under the running board to ensure it runs correctly
over the screen. (Picture 2)
12. Pull the split-pin out of the support strut, lift the strut
and put the split-pin in again. (Picture 3)
Disassembly:
Follow the procedure for fitting in reverse order. Put
the protective caps on the snap couplings to protect
them from dirt.
2.2 Important before start-up
During transport — lock the Snow sweeper in the
raised position with the transport lock. (Picture 4)

2. Operator’s manual
2.3 Start-up
1. Start the machine. (See the operator’s manual for
the basic machine, section 2.2)
2. Lower the Snow sweeper by pushing lever A on the
left-hand side of the machine down to position 2.
(Picture 1)
3. By holding the lever down for about 2 seconds the
snow sweeper will be in a float position, which
allows it to follow ground contours.
4. Start the brush by pushing lever D on the right-hand
side of the machine up to position 1. (Picture 2)
The direction of the brush can be turned so that it is
possible to clear snow in places where the machine
cannot turn. Do this by pushing lever D down to
position 2 (Picture 3)
5. Turn the Snow sweeper with lever B on the left-hand
side of the basic machine until the brush turns as
you want it to. (Picture 1)

3. Service and maintenance
3.1 Cleaning
Daily cleaning and maintenance will extend the lifetime
of both the machine and the attachment.
Clean the Snow sweeper with water when it is no longer
required for use.
3.2 Maintenance
Lubricating the bearings:
The bearings for the brush axle and the bearing for
the swivel on the Snow sweeper must be lubricated
regularly with a good quality lubricant.
1. Stop the machine.
2. Clean the lubricating nipples and lubricate the bear-
ings until the grease starts to come out of the bear-
ing. (Pictures 1 & 2)
Checking, adjusting and lubricating the chain:
1. Stop the machine.
2. Detach the hydraulic hoses.
3. Take off the guard which protects the chain on
the left-hand side of the Snow sweeper. (Picture 3)
4. Check the chain and cog for wear, replace them if
necessary.
5. Tighten the chain until it has a play of 4-5 mm when
you pull it with one finger, (it must not touch the
nylon block). (Picture 4)
Tighten the chain by loosening the bolts that hold
the brush-axle bearing. Tighten the chain and then
tighten the bearing again.
6. Lubricate the chain with a good quality lubricant.
