Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You clean up debris, sand, and small material from hard surfaces like concrete, asphalt, or warehouse floors
- Spring road sand cleanup in Canadian parking lots is a core task for your machine
Skip if
- You need to collect the material, not just move it — an angle broom side-casts debris into a windrow
- Fine dust or regulated material (silica) requires containment — an angle broom disperses it
Also consider
- Pickup broom if you need to collect material rather than side-cast it
- Street sweeper or vacuum attachment if dust control is a regulatory requirement
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.
About Sweepster in Canada
Sweepster is part of the Paladin/Epiroc family and is one of the most recognized names in angle brooms for skid steers. Sweepster brooms are available through Canadian equipment dealers and are a proven choice for municipal, commercial, and construction sweeping applications.
Care & Maintenance
- Inspect broom fill length after every 20 hours of use — bristles below minimum length drag rather than sweep, waste time, and mask the fact that you need a replacement
- Clean debris wrapped in the drum core after every extended session — wire, hair, and root cause drum imbalance and stress the hydraulic motor bearings
- Grease drum bearing end caps monthly during active use periods
- Check hydraulic motor connections and angle cylinder fittings weekly — broom motors work hard and connection fittings loosen over time
- Store on end or off the ground so bristle fill doesn't take a permanent set under drum weight — brooms stored drum-down develop flat spots in the fill that affect sweep quality
How to Connect
- Attach broom frame using Bob-Tach
- Connect hydraulic couplers for rotation motor
- Verify rotation direction (forward-sweep or reverse-sweep per job)
- Adjust broom angle if applicable — most have manual tilt adjust
