Proper operation ensures efficient debris collection and extends the life of your sweeper.

5.1 Adjusting Brush Height

The effectiveness of the sweeper depends on the correct brush height setting. The brushes should be set approximately 1/4 inch deep into your grass.

1. Locate the orange adjustment dial on the front of the sweeper body.
2. Turn the dial to raise or lower the brushes until they are just touching the top of the grass and slightly penetrating it.
3. Test the setting by pushing the sweeper. If it's not picking up debris, lower the brushes slightly. If it's too difficult to push, raise them slightly.

5.2 Técnica de barrido

Push the sweeper at a steady, moderate pace. Overlapping each pass by about a quarter of the previous sweep can improve collection efficiency. The sweeper works best on dry leaves and grass clippings, collecting approximately 80% on the first pass.
