Overview
HLA Attachments' 72-inch hydraulic rotary angle broom for skid steers provides the same Ontario-built quality as the wider 84 and 96-inch models in a more compact footprint for mid-frame machines. The 72-inch width handles most seasonal cleanup and parking lot sweeping on standard-to-mid frame skid steers. Hydraulic angle 30 degrees left and right. Direct motor drive on broom. 12–20 GPM at 1,500–3,000 PSI hydraulic requirement. Lateral and forward float.

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
🔧 Machine Compatibility
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.

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
⚠ Safety NoteBrooms are typically standard-flow (10-18 GPM). Angle brooms can swivel — set angle before engaging rotation.
