The AVANT Bucket Broom is an attachment suitable for use with AVANT multi purpose loaders shown in Table 1. The bucket broom is an excellent choice for removing sand, sanding gravel or other small trash from larger yards, streets, or other even and solid surfaces, and serves well also in professional use. The powerful collector will remove material from surfaces with a single pass, leaving the surface completely clear. With the bucket type collector housing with large opening and strong rotating broom it is easy to collect larger objects on practically any type of surface, which is not possible with other types of coll ...

Please bear in mind that safety is the result of several factors. The loader-attachment combination is highly powerful and improper or careless use or maintenance may cause serious personal injury or property damage. Due to this, all operators must carefully familiarise themselves about correct use and the operator's manuals of both the loader and the attachment before starting operation. Do not use the attachment if you have not completely familiarised yourself with its operation and the related hazards. Misuse, careless use, or using an attachment that is in poor condition, may cause risk of serious injuries. Familiarise ...

stopping procedure before any cleaning, maintenance, or adjustments.  Pay attention to the surroundings and any other persons and machines moving in the vicinity. Pay attention to the contours of the terrain and other hazards, such as branches and trees that can reach to the driver's area, loose rocks, and slippery surfaces.  Make sure to use only an attachment that is in good condition. Do not modify the attachment in any way that could affect its safety.  Use the attachment only for its intended purpose. Other use may create unnecessary safety ris ...

the loader boom can be lowered or tilted even if the engine has been shut down (crushing hazard). The loader is not intended to be left to keep a load elevated for longer periods. Always lower the attachment to a safe position before leaving the drivers seat. Remember to wear proper protective clothing: The noise level at the driver's seat may exceed 85 dB(A). Wear hearing protection while working with the loader. Wear protective gloves. Wear safety boots whenever working with the loader. Wear safety glasses when handling hydraulic components. Wear respirator m ...

Attaching the attachment to the loader is quick and easy, but it must be done carefully. The attachment is mounted to the loader boom by using the quick attach plate on the loader boom and the counterpart on the attachment. If the attachment is not locked to the loader, it may detach from the loader and cause a hazardous situation. The loader must not be driven and the boom must never be lifted when the attachment has not been locked. To prevent hazardous situations, always follow the coupling procedure shown below. Also remember the safety instructions shown in Chapter 3. The attachment is mounted to the lo ...

locked to the loader may fall on the boom or towards the operator, or fall under the loader during driving, causing loss of control of the loader. Never move or lift an attachment that has not been locked. Before moving or lifting the attachment, make sure that the locking pins are in the lower position and come through the fasteners on the attachment on both sides. Excessive tilting or lifting of an unlocked attachment increases the risk of tipping the attachment over. Do not use the automatic locking of the locking pins when the attachment is lifted more than one metre from the ground. If the locking ...

1. Switch off the auxiliary hydraulics of the loader. 2. While pushing unlock button, turn the lever to disconnect the connector. Conventional quick couplings (alternative couplings for some loader models): Before connecting or disconnecting the standard quick couplings, the residual pressure must be released as shown below. The conventional quick couplings will not connect, if there is pressure in the hydraulic system. Make sure that all three quick coupling fittings are properly connected, otherwise the hydraulic motor of the attachment may get damaged. To connect and disconnect the standard couplings ...

drained from the system. The pump of the watering system will get damaged if water gets frozen inside it. Disconnect the water hoses to drain the system completely. 6. Using the broom Check the attachment and the operating environment once more before starting to work, and that all obstacles have been removed from the operating area. Quick inspection of the equipment and the operating area before use are parts of ensuring safety and the best performance of the equipment. Practise the use of the attachment and its controls in an open and safe area. If you ar ...

 Before starting work, remove large items that can’t be collected with the broom from the working area.  Drive carefully on uneven terrain and note the effect of heavy load at the front of the loader to the stability and handling of the loader.  Check the setting of the broom position supports. There must be a gap between the broom and the edge plate of the bucket. Too wide gap will decrease the collecting performance.  Ensure that bystanders are at a safe distance when operating the equipment. Do not let anyone to enter danger area of the boom or to stay directly in front of the loader. Also make sure that ...

The broom is operated with the auxiliary hydraulics of the loader. The broom has two operating modes: Auxiliary hydraulics control lever: (or electric joystick buttons): 1. Lower broom down 2. Broom rotate  Lif broom up Direction of operation: The broom is intended to rotate only to its normal operating direction so that the broom will function as collecting broom. When moving the auxiliary hydraulics control lever towards its locking position, the broom will rotate as illustrated in the adjacent figure. For the best performance, the Bucket Broom should be operated in reverse travel direction. To prevent damaging the ...

hydraulic pumps may be used. Note that unnecessarily high rotating speed will wear the broom down more quickly, so the speed should be set according to operating conditions, material being handled, and the drive speed. Operate the attachment keeping the hydraulic flow within recommended range. Never exceed maximum allowed input of hydraulic energy. Broom floating system and correct operating position: During operation the broom should be kept in similar position as shown in the adjacent figure. The broom and the edge plat ...

In the lower position, the broom rests on its suppoerting pins. These pins determine the gap between the broom and the edge of the bucket. Set the pins so that when the broom is positioned as in the figure above, the broom will press the ground lightly, and make sure that there will be a gap between the bristles and the edge of the bucket. With new broom the upper positions are generally correct and the position should be adjusted as the broom wears down. Set both pins to same level. 6.2.2 Emptying the collector bucket To empty the bucket, the broom is lifted hydraulically from the front of the bucket by turn ...

A water spraying system is available for reducing the spreading of dust during use of the broom. The system contains: 1. 150-litre water tank and an electric pump under the tank 2. shut off valve 3. spraying tube with four or five nozzles The spraying system is intended for spraying only water. Using solvents or cleaning agents is not permitted, as they might damage the components of the system. Do not leave water lying in the tank for long periods and make sure that the water in the system will not get frozen. Drain the system completely before storing the broom in freezing conditions. Adding some wiper fluid in the ...

The fixing points for the watering system are on the broom as standard and the watering system can be installed later. The installation kit includes all necessary components and the electric harness to operate the watering system. The numbering shown in figures correspond with the numbering of the instructions. 1. Remove the multiconnector parking stand from the broom. 2. Install the water tank support bracket (4 bolts, nuts & washers). 3. Assemble and install the spraying nozzle tube on the brackets at the cover on the broom, the water valve is fitted on the tube with an elbow fitting. 4. Fit the wa ...
