1.1 Purpose

The Plus sweeping machine of the HD series is

intended for installation on a 3-point linkage, series

HG for

installation with fork arms, series HK for installation

on a coupling triangle, series HH for the installation

on yard loaders, and series HU for the installation

on local government vehicles. Because of its

robust construction and the various operating

widths, this sweeping machine is suitable for the

use on streets and squares of any size.

The attachment of the Plus sweeping machine

takes place via the mechanically or hydraulically

operated quick change receptacle of the carrier

vehicle in question, the drive-in of a pallet fork into

fork arm pockets, or via a coupling triangle or via

attachment to a 3-point linkage.

Through the simple removal of the large-volume

dirt collection vessel, the Plus sweeping machine

may also be used as an open sweeping machine

to sweep large sealed surfaces.

Various optional equipment permits the Plus

sweeping machine to be adapted to different work

environments. This optional equipment includes,

e.g., the hydraulic emptying of the collection

vessel, the water spraying device to bind dust, a

side broom to sweep close to edges, a hydraulic

side adjustment to ease the work, or reinforced

castors, etc.
