NOTICE
■ Do not store polypropylene brushes in direct
sunlight. The material can deteriorate and crumble
before the bristles are worn out.
■ Do not store the broom with weight on the
brushes. Weight will deform them, destroying the
sweeping effectiveness. To avoid this problem,
place broom on blocks.
Inspect the broom thoroughly and prepare for storage.
Repair or replace any damaged components.
Remove the broom as described in Remove Broom
from Skid Steer, page 15. Place on blocks to prevent
