HB580 Broom experience???

[John Joseph McVeigh]

I generally use a weight-transfer setting of two when I am using the broom. More weight transfer seems to result in what I consider to be insufficient scrubbing action.

Next I'll try it with a 2.... I've been thinking of sweeping it when its wet too.... PRS... When you take a day off work, come on over and play....

Thanks all..

I did some asking, nobody seems to know what a replacement broom costs when the original wears out...... I have no idea what the Ventrac dealer sells one for... So I started looking.....

Appears to be 58" wide and 22" in diameter. $497.00

An example of a supplier is...

Discounted tube brooms to fit your street sweeper - Heritage Maintenance Products - 800-277-3780


I also found the teeth for the stump grinder too.... (and I forget where too)

Good information! Thank you for sharing it!

Thanks for all the info. What is the price range of the attachment new?

How long do bristles last on pavement before needing replacement?

I知 in GA and have problems with centipede & Bermuda creeping over asphalt driveways. Will the broom cleanup the edges?

Thank you!

It does a good job of grooming Bermuda off asphalt.
