Road sweeper ID and advice

[JonL]

Can anyone identify this road sweeper please. It mounts on pallet tines with a brush at the back sweeping forwards into a tray. Used to be yellow.
Any idea where I'd get new bristles?
Also it has a ram to tip the tray, plumbed into the main hydraulics, but I've never managed to get it to work. Possibly something to do with the valve block at the back. Any ideas?

Looks like a MRE made in Ireland - but you need to shop around for New Bristle Sections, which you can get anywhere - they are not specific too MRE. You also need to decide the mix of Metal and Nylon depending upon your application.

From memory there was adjustment with 3 settings for lowering Main Brush as the bristles wear.

See tractorpartsupermarket.co.uk/products/roadsweeper
good selection there once you know your brush section diameter - no doubt lots of other suppliers to check prices with

Put a tap in our hydraulics to stop bucket tipping if lever/ brush rotated wrong way
