Foreword
This manual is intended to be a guide for correct use and main-
tenance of the equipment. Study the manual before starting up
and operating or before any prevention maintenance is carried
out.
Be confident with the equipment and all the instructions and
keep the manual so it will always be used before taking the
equipment into operation.
OBS! This manual is made to suit all our markets. There might
be some differences and if this is the case for you, please do
not take notice.
We are continuously working on improvements and we re-
serve the right to make design changes and improvements
without notice.
The operator is obliged to:
• Look after ev. warning signs to be readable.
• See to that no unauthorized person uses the equipment or is
within the operating area during work or maintenance work
• Check that the carrier is appropriate to the attachment
(hydraulic flow, stability etc.)
When ordering spare parts or by other contacts with Holms or
your local dealer, always inform about the attachment type and
series No. This number you will find on the machine plate.
When ordering packing set for hydraulic motors inform about
the motors serial number. This number you will find on the ga-
ble of the motor.
Do not make any modifications, changes, rebuilt work etc. which
are not approved by Holms Industri AB. We also ask you to
pay attention to spare part not approved by us.

Generally about the sweeper
The SL sweeper is made for small wheel loaders and tractors
mounted in the front or rear of the machine. SL operates with
two direct acting hydraulic motors designed for an oil flow of
40-130 l/min.
The suspension of the sweeper gives a constant and evenly ap-
plied pressure against the ground. This gives minimal brush
wear and insensitiveness to unevenness, grooves, kerb stones
etc.
The sweeper is as standard equipped with hydraulic angling
which can angle the broom ± 30°.
Extra equipment
• Brush-cover in Polyethylene (plastic).
• Spraying system complete with 400 alt. 600 l tank, pump
and spraying ramp.
• El. hydraulic angling, makes it possible to angle during
sweeping, the carrier needs only one hydraulic function.
• Side shift, gives the possibility to move the sweeper
hydraulically ± 0,7 m.
• Truck attachment with built-in lifting function for VV-85,
DIN-plate or similar brackets.
• Different types of brushes, conventional or tufted, steel or
polypropylene (plastic).
2. Watertank 600 litre.
Distribution block
El. selector valve
3. El. hydraulic bevelling

Operating instruction
Connecting to carrier
1. Connect the sweeper to the loader attachment bracket. See
loader instruction manual.
2. Connect the driving hose quick couplings to the 3:rd
hydraulic function outlet or to the loader hydraulic motor out-
let.
3. Connect the angling cylinder quick coupling to the 4:th hy-
draulic function outlet. In case the sweeper is equipped with
el.operated selector valve - connect the cable to the carrier.
Electric circuit, see page 25.
4. Start the sweeper by moving the operation control for the
3:rd function to its locking position or activate the hydraulic
motor circuit.
5. Check the sweeper rotation direction. If the sweeper rotates
in the opposite direction in closed position, shift closed posi-
tion of the lever or loosen the control lever and shift the quick
couplings for the 3:rd hydraulic function.
Sweeper setting, height and tilt
1. Lift up the sweeper and put the parking supports in
operating position.
2. Start the sweeper with the 3:rd hydraulic function or with
the hydraulic motor circuit.
3. Slowly lower the sweeper until the height indicator yellow
markers are in line, see picture 5.
4. Tilt the sweeper until the tilting indicator markers are in
line, see picture 6.
5. Eventual readjustment of height as described in point 3.
Setting of ground pressure
The sweeper’s ground pressure can be adjusted for different
requirements. Set the machine in parking position, then use
the adjusting grip (picture 7) to set the ground pressure.
Attention! Do not use the carrier lifting or tilting function for
ground pressure setting.
Warning!
Always stop the broom completely before
making any adjustments.
4. Parking support in operating position
5. Height indicator
6. Tilt indicator
7. Adjusting grip

1. Set the sweeper height and tilt.
2. Let the sweeper rotate a short while against the ground.
3. Measure the clean-swept stripe, it shall normally be ca 10
cm.
Warning!
Always lower the attachment so the springs are
relieved before making any adjustments.
Decrease the ground pressure by lowering the adjusting grip.
Increase the ground pressure by raising the grip (picture 7).
Sweeping
By sweeping the setting normally shall be as described in
“Sweeper setting, height and tilt”. The yellow markers on the
height- and tilting indicators shall be in line. In this position
the loader bracket is vertical to the ground. The sweeper oper-
ates with even pressure over its whole width.
Attention!Do not use the loader heightand tilting function for
ground pressure adjustment.
By requirement of harder ground pressure on any side of the
sweeper or if the sweeper isunevenly worn the adjustment can
be made by changing the tilt setting. By backwards tilting
harder pressure is reached on the side of the sweeper which is
angled towards the loader.
By forwards tilting harder pressure is reached on the side of
the sweeper which is angled from the loader. When lifting the
sweeper from the ground for transport, use tilting backwards
to avoid leaf spring damage.
Disconnecting from carrier
1. Loosen the attachment bracket faucets before the sweeper is
placed on the ground to avoid damage on the suspension sys-
tem.
2. Lower and secure the support in parking position.
Attention! The sweeper brushes can be deformed if the sup-
ports are not used when sweeper is parked.
3. Put down the sweeper on the ground.
4. Loosen the quick couplings for the 3:rd and 4:th hydraulic
functions alternatively hydraulic motor circuit and the cable.
8. Sweeper with even ground pressure
10. Sweeper tilted forwards
11. Supports in parking position
9. Sweeper tilted backwards

Maintenance
After running
• Wash the sweeper, which increases the life-time and makes
it easier to detect eventual leakage or other defects.
• Inspect the sweeper concerning damages on hoses, brush
protectors, leaf spring or framework. Also check eventual
oil leakage.
Lubrication
A couple of times a year, the bar tube bearing shallbe greased.
Clean the nipple and fill in until the grease pierces.
Change of brushes
Place the supports in driving position and lower the machine
until the broom rests against the ground.
Dismounting of sweeper roll
1. Loosen the hydraulic hose brackets on the bar tube.
2. Remove the four bolts from the gable side.
3. Avoid the bare tube to spring up by holding a foot on the
plate of the support stand, then carefully remove the gable.
See picture 15.
Attention! Avoid clamping.
5. Angle the sweeper roll from the bar tube and pull the roll
out from the carrier housing on the other gable side.

14. Removing the bolts
15. Removing the gable side

Change of brushes
1. Loosen the screws and take away the sweeper roll end ring.
2. Put shackels in the two holes for the brush core mounting-
screws and put a lifting wire loop through the shackles.
3. Lift the sweeper roll in vertical position by using a traverse
crane or similar equipment.
4. Lift up the roll from the floor and pull down the brush
sections and the distance rings. Lower the sweeper roll.
5. Check the core free from damage.
6. Fasten one end ring with screws on the core, see picture17.
7. Lift up the sweeper core with the end ring downwards.
8. Place one distance ring with the brush element pins into the
grooves of the brush core.
9. Place one distance ring.
10. Place one brush element turned acc. to picture 18 and then
another distance ring.
11. Place alternating brush elements and distance rings. Please
notice that the brush rings shall be turned alternatively, so the
result will be acc.to picture 19. (When using Bee-line brush-
es).
12. To get the whole core "dressed" a thinner distance ring
alt. double brushes without distance ring is necessary at
the end in order to receive agreement of length.
13. Fasten the other end ring with screws.

Mounting of sweeper roll
1. Put the sweeper roll on the fixed gable side carrier housing.
2. Put the gable side with the hydraulic motor and carrier
housing on the two guide pins. See picture 21.
Attention! Avoid clamping.
3. Mount the four gable side bolts.
4. Mount the hydraulic hose bracket on the bar tube.
