Product Information: Rascal and Force Z-18 Fine Finish
Broom
The Rascal and Force Z-18 Fine Finish Broom is a high-quality
broom designed for fine finishing tasks. It features a sturdy main
broom frame with L-shaped adjustment brackets, bristle channels,
and a hanging chain for easy storage. The broom is designed to
provide efficient and effective sweeping performance for various
surfaces.
Product Usage Instructions:
- Unbox your fine finish broom and ensure that all the parts
listed in the manual are included. - Locate the front and back edge of the main broom frame. The
back edge has 4 holes drilled into it for attaching flat brackets,
while the front edge has no holes. - On the broom frame, locate the end cap with loosened hardware
(nut and washers). Remove the hardware and end cap using a wrench
or your fingers, and set them aside. - On the top of the broom frame, align the L-shaped adjustment
brackets with the corresponding holes on the frame. Ensure a proper
fit. - Flip the broom frame over so that the bristle channels are
facing up. - Carefully insert each bristle piece into its respective
channel. The fit is intentionally snug. Optionally, you can gently
tap each bristle piece with a rubber mallet to fully secure them.
Do not use your hand to pound the bristles as the metal bristle cap
may cause injury. - Once all bristle pieces are fully inserted, replace the broom
frame end cap with the hardware it was originally attached with.
Tighten carefully, ensuring that the cap fits flush to the end of
the frame. - Attach the hanging chain to the flat plates on the back of the
unit using the supplied clips. Ensure a secure attachment.
Following these assembly instructions will allow you to properly
