DUST FLAPS
The dust flaps are very important to sweeping and dust control and are susceptible to damage and should be
inspected daily and maintained in good condition.

CHECKING THE DUST FLAPS
The dust flaps are used on the wheel well, broom chamber and broom door. Inspect the flaps daily and replace
any flap that shows signs of wear or deterioration. All flaps should be replaced when worn or damaged to the
point that they can no longer perform their normal function. The adjustable flaps have slotted mounting holes
to facilitate adjustment.

ADJUSTING THE DUST FLAPS
Adjust the flaps so there is a 1/8" to 1/16" gap between the floor and the bottom edge of the flaps. The rear
flap adjustment is 1/16" (16 cm.) above the floor.

Park the machine on a smooth level surface and engage the parking brake.

Loosen the flap retaining screws and adjust the flap to clear the floor and leave a 1/16" to 1/8" gap.

3.

Tighten flap-retaining screws while holding flap in position.
