Product Overview
The KM 45 Series is a versatile sweeper with big performance in a light weight, strong compact chassis. Optional accessories include front collector box, gulley brushes and front brush guard. When choosing the correct sweeper for your application you should consider the width of the power unit, oil flow or PTO horsepower available to power the sweeper and capacity to lift the sweeper, with a full collector if required.
It will fit a wide variety of applications, including; John Deere Quick-Tach for X-series and 1026, Kubota B1220 , Kubota G23 - G26 with Kersten front Linkage, Cat 1 linkage A-frames for front linkages, Cat 1 front 3 point linkage systems, Outfront Mowers with 2 point lift arms, Ransomes HR300, Kubota RTV.
Our Sweepers are fitted with a large diameter 5 row stiff spiral brush for moving large debris and dirt. The pendulum suspension system protects the sweeper and carrier from damage over rough ground. Sweeping height is adjusted by heavy duty gauge wheels — each wheel is adjusted individually for precise positioning of the brush. The sweeper is geared for low speed, high torque applications, such as removing soil in block paving or tarmac. However, we can change this on request, to suit other applications where lighter material must be moved further from the brush, such as snow.

Product Applications
Sweeping on Hard Surfaces
When organic debris covers a hard surface it looks unsightly, but it also blocks drainage channels, which leads to surface water. Over time the material will decompose producing soil. Opportunistic weeds can use this soil as a platform to grow on the surface, which can cause damage over time. So it is really important to keep the surface swept and to remove the material.
Sweeping on Artificial Surfaces
In addition to the normal problems we face maintaining hard surfaces; artificial surfaces have infill, which gets compacted and also migrates around the surface. This infill can be de-compacted with a sweeper allowing the surface to drain properly. The sweeper will also even out the distribution of infill and stand up the grass, making the surface much nicer to use.
