The 52-in. (132-cm) Rotary Broom increases tractor versatility by allowing it to be used for a variety of sweeping jobs. The broom effectively meets the needs of commercial, farm, home, and estate operators with four-season versatility:

 

Spring

The broom can be used to dethatch lawns, and it cleans off tennis courts quickly and effectively. 

 

Summer

The broom effectively performs a wide variety of sweeping jobs, including cleaning sidewalks, parking lots, driveways, construction job sites, and barns. It can also be used for backfilling trenches.

 

Fall

The broom can be used to sweep leaves and windrow pine needles. It sweeps artificial turf and cleans up spectator areas after sporting events.

 

Winter

It effectively moves up to 2 in. (5 cm) of snow, which may eliminate the need for a snow thrower, depending on the operator's geographic area.

 

The 52-in. (132-cm ) Rotary Broom is compatible with X700 Series and 1023E, 1025R, 1026R, model year 2016 and older 2025R and 2032R, 2305-2720, 2210, 4010, 4110, 4115, and 4100 Tractors.

 

NOTE: If a compact utility tractor is set up for an AutoConnect™ mid-mount mower, the quick-connect drive shaft and rear lift link must be removed from the tractor before installing the rotary broom.

Polypropylene and steel wafers
Polypropylene and steel wafers Polypropylene and steel wafers

The broom section is assembled with 32 polypropylene wafers.

NOTE: In certain applications, it may be desirable to equip broom with all or some steel wafers.

Optional steel wafers are available:

  • Steel wafers do a good job of breaking material loose.
  • The steel wafer is for aggressive action.
  • Polypropylene wafer is good for cleaning any surface.
  • Assemble with alternating polypropylene and steel wafers for good breaking loose and cleaning of material.
  • Assemble steel wafers on ends for extra curb cleaning.

 

Replacement wafers, packaged 16 to a box, can be ordered from Parts.

It is recommended that all 32 wafers be replaced at the same time for even wear.

Wafer bristles have a convoluted design for a good flicking action.

Broom-head float

Casters provide a quick response, allowing the head to float and follow the terrain. The broom head also articulates for undulating terrain.

 

An adjustable, threaded rod allows the broom to float and follow the terrain.

Brush wear and pattern adjustment
Acme screw and knob for infinite pattern control Acme screw and knob for infinite pattern control

An Acme screw and knob is used for infinite control of pattern. It also allows control of the depth of the bristles beyond raising the hitch as bristles wear down or more ground contact is needed.

Shields
Shields Shields

The front drive shield provides additional protection against material becoming jammed in the sprocket and chain. The gearbox hood shield hinge and spring provide protection, yet allow convenient access to power take-off (PTO) shafts.

A hood debris deflector is available as an attachment:

  • Helps direct debris and dust ahead of broom
  • Can be adjusted up or down to help control material being swept
Parking stand
Parking stands Parking stands

Parking stand is standard equipment:

  • Helps keep broom level when hooking it up
  • Takes broom weight off of the bristles during storage
Front quick-hitch mounting system - X700

The broom slips over and locks into the front quick-hitch with attached snap pins:

  • Fast and easy installation with no tools or loose parts
  • Same hitch is used for blade, broom, snow blower, and snow thrower

 

NOTE: The 60 Rotary Broom requires use of the newer BM19782 front quick-hitch for installation on X Series Tractors. Interference will occur if installed using a BM17347 quick-hitch.

 

Lever-lock pins and stands help keep broom level when hooking up. They are also used to keep broom weight off of bristles when storing the unit.

Front hitch hookup – Compact utility tractors
Model year 2017 and newer 2032R, 2038R, 3120-3720, and 3033R-3046R Tractors - front 3-point hitch with A-frame adapter

Works with a variety of implements Works with a variety of implements

The front 3-point hitch is designed to be a more robust solution for operators who would like to use front implements. This design is the standard in Europe, where the majority of tractors are sold with front hitches. Advantages of a front 3-point hitch over a Quik-Tatch™ style hitch include the following:

  • 90 percent of the front hitch can be left on the tractor when a loader is installed. (Only the lower draft arms, top link, and A-frame need to be removed. This is accomplished with quick-release pins.)
  • 100 percent of the hitch can be left on when a mid-mount mower deck is installed (cannot raise and lower the hitch, so it is not recommended an implement be left on the hitch, but it can be installed).
  • The A-frame adapter is an industry standard (like iMatch™ system) with which other implement manufacturers design interfaces. There are other products on the market, like front mowers, that can be used with this front hitch.
  • The A-frame adapter allows for tool-free, quick change between implements.
  • The same front hitch can be used with the 366 Front Blade, 59 Snow Blower, and 60 HD Broom.

NOTE: The front 3-point hitch only works on model year 2017 and newer 2032R, 2038R, 3033R-3046R and 3120-3720 Tractors.

Hitch slips over and locks onto frame with attached snap-pins:

  • No tools required (after initial installation)
  • No loose parts to find
  • Same hitch works with all front-end attachments: blade, broom, snow blower, and snow thrower

NOTE:

 

1) 2305, 2025R 2320, 2520, model year 2016 and older 2032R, 2720, 2210, 4010, 4110, 4115, and 4100 Tractors must be equipped with front-attaching support kit for use with the Quik-Tatch front hitch.

 

2) If the operator plans to use a Quik-Tatch front hitch with an OnRamp™ Mower (2025R, 2320, 2520, 2032R, 2720, and 4115 only), a front hitch/mid-mower combo bracket will be needed to retain a tool-free change between the front hitch and the mid-mower deck.

 

Lever lock pins and stands help keep broom level when hooking up. Also used to keep broom weight off of bristles when storing unit.
