How can I effectively manage dust on asphalt surfaces?

To control dust on asphalt surfaces, adjust your sweeper's brush speed to a slower setting to minimize dust dispersal. Spraying water directly onto the brush or the surface helps bind the dust, making it heavier and easier to collect. Kersten sweepers are available with dust suppression kits can efficiently handle dust without spreading it around.

How does a dust suppression kit work?

A dust suppression kit sprays water directly onto the brush of a sweeper and surface. This technique helps bind dust particles, making them heavier and easier to collect. By reducing the amount of dust that becomes airborne, these kits help maintain cleaner surfaces and improve air quality.

What should I do if dust is accumulating in hard-to-reach areas?

For hard-to-reach areas, use a pedestrian two wheel tractor such as K-series or UBS-series with dust suppression kit. Adjust the brush speed to a slower setting and apply water to the brush to control dust effectively. A debris guard can also help manage dust in confined spaces.

What is a Gully Brush and how does it help with debris management?

The Gully Brush is a specialized attachment for sweepers, expertly designed to manage debris in challenging areas such as edges, gullies, and kerbsides. It efficiently pulls dirt, leaves, and other debris from these hard-to-reach spots into the path of the main sweeper brush. Once in the sweeper brush’s path, the debris is collected by the sweeper and deposited into the collector box, ensuring a comprehensive clean and a polished finish.

How often should I replace my sweeper brushes?

The frequency of replacement depends on the amount of usage and the type of debris you're dealing with. Regular inspection is recommended, and brushes should be replaced as soon as you notice signs of wear, such as reduced cleaning performance or uneven bristle wear.
