INTRODUCTION

To insure proper understanding of operation, cleaning and maintenance of your TYMCO RE-

GENERATIVE AIR SWEEPER, it is necessary that this Operator’s Manual and the Service &

Parts Manual be read and studied from cover to cover by the Operator. A full understanding of

this equipment will help the operator achieve the results expected of this machine.

Though, seemingly, a very simple machine, the TYMCO REGENERATIVE AIR SWEEPER uti-

lizes air instead of conventional rotary brushes, brooms and conveyers. Aerodynamic prob-

lems that arise in the REGENERATIVE AIR SWEEPER are not as easily identified and,

therefore, necessitates a complete understanding of the machine.

The TYMCO REGENERATIVE AIR SWEEPER is designed to maintain cleaner surfaces at

higher speeds and at lower cost. The performance capability of this truly modern machine is

only limited by the initiative of those responsible for its operation. There are many different con-

ditions found in sweeping, and we believe it impossible to answer all of the problems here. Most

important in the operation and maintenance of this machine, is that it should be KEPT CLEAN.

The Operator’s Manual includes the necessary checks, operating and adjustment procedures

needed by the operator from day to day. For any specific adjustment, problem, or maintenance

checks not explained in this manual, please refer to the Service & Parts Manual.
