Strap and Hanger p/n 22410-17201 and 60840-98020 (optional) Although a strap and hanger is not required for use with a Shindaiwa PowerBroom Tool, it is recommended to reduce operator fatigue during extended periods of operation. Make sure all hooks and adjusting devices are secure. Adjust the harness shoulder strap so the shoulder pad rests comfortably on the off-side shoulder. See Figure 9.
Operating Techniques Sweeping Windrows Operate the PowerBroom at or near full throttle with its sweeper fins resting on the work surface. IMPORTANT! It is both tiring and unnecessary to lift or hold the fins from the work surface during sweeping. When sweeping narrow areas such as sidewalks, the PowerBroom can be used to throw material directly ahead of the operator. Clearing wider areas may require sweeping at an angle to create windrows to one side of the path being cleared.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before performing service or maintenance work. WARNING! Non-standard parts may not operate properly with your unit, may cause damage and could lead to personal injury.
