5. Operating Instructions

  1. Prepare the Area: Ensure the area to be swept is free of large obstacles that could impede the sweeper's movement.
  2. Adjust Ground Clearance: The sweeper is designed to operate on various surfaces. For optimal performance on uneven terrain, the ground clearance can be adjusted between 1.18" and 1.73". Refer to the product diagram for adjustment points if available.

6. Maintenance

  • Cleaning: After each use, clean any dirt or non-magnetic debris from the sweeper's wheels and magnetic base. A damp cloth can be used for the exterior.
  • Storage: Store the sweeper in a dry, protected area. Avoid storing it near sensitive electronics or magnetic media.
  • Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they are tight. Inspect the wheels for wear or damage.
  • Lubrication: The wheel axles may benefit from occasional light lubrication to ensure smooth rolling.
