Features of the Elgin Broom Bear
The Elgin Broom Bear is manufactured in an ISO:9001 certified plant. All Elgin sweepers are quality inspected and functionally tested prior to shipment. The brand focuses on continuous improvement for all their machines and uses an application-based approach to satisfying customers’ sweeping needs.
At Michigan Maintenance Supply, we work with our customers to help ensure that you get the right machine for your specifications, including engine configuration, fuel requirements, and specialty options.
Features of the Elgin Broom Bear mechanical street sweeper include:
- Single-engine technology
- Fully dualized controls
- Large hopper and water tank
- Twin variable displacement hydraulic pumps for increased sweeper system efficiency
- Variable dump height
- Squeegee with patented interchangeability to chevron conveyor belt system
- Short wheelbase for enhanced maneuverability in tight spaces
The main broom is attached to a fully floating trailing arm to better conform to road contours and the mechanical suspension dynamically adjusts to various road conditions with lift and lower functions controlled from the cab. Free floating side brooms offer four-way motion and protection against damaging impacts while pneumatic lift and extension control enhance performance.
Mounted on a commercially available conventional or cab-over chassis, the Broom Bear uses the chassis engine to power the sweeper. This model ensures productive sweeping time and the short wheelbase, large brooms, and dual mode air suspension system make the Broom Bear a rugged sweeper that is appropriate for rural areas and congested urban areas alike. It’s a machine that can handle heavy duty construction debris or light street maintenance.
