Mechanical, or broom sweeper, utilize a main broom for picking up debris, which is then sent to a conveyor and ultimately lands in a debris body, or hopper.

The Elgin Pelican broom sweeper is a three-wheel mechanical sweeper based on one of the original street sweeper designs, which has been continuously improved since 1914, meeting the highest sweeper standards. Maneuverability, economy, serviceability and single lane dumping with a sweep system that easily handles heavy compacted dirt and bulky debris are all features of the Elgin Pelican. An isolation-mounted cab provides a cleaner, quieter operation, and the improved 360-degree visibility and easier access for service and maintenance make the Elgin Pelican an industry standard in road sweepers.

The Elgin Pelican is specially suited for applications that require extreme maneuverability due to congested areas, heavy debris such as that found in northern climate spring clean up, and bulky items up to 9 long. The waterless version of this street sweeper can do all this without the use of dust control water, allowing for year around operation and use on water reactive compounds like Portland cement.

The durable purpose-built chassis features a compact frame to maximize maneuverability and position the load low and between front wheels for stability. The high steering angle and tight turning radius allow sweeping extremely close to obstacles and following curb lines.

The Pelicans isolation-mounted cab provides a clean, quiet, and comfortable environment for the operator. Filtered fresh air conditioning and heater/defroster come standard. Large windows, seethrough doors, and full-width windshield allow for 360 degree visibility.

The Pelicans heavy-duty construction and compact frame ensures a tight turning radius and years of reliable, low-maintenance operation. A balanced design provides stable sweeping and dumping. The hopper load is positioned low between the two front wheels for stability and safety. The axle support and hopper lift system are integral parts of the chassis.

Controlled by engine RPM and operated independently of direction and ground speed, the Pelicans broom speed provides digging power at slow or zero ground speeds. A foot pedal controls speed and sweeper direction through the hydrostatic transmission.

The 35 in x 66 in (889 mm x 1676 mm) hydraulically driven polypropylene main broom features variable speed (variable with engine RPM) for optimal sweeping in changing conditions. To protect the broom mechanism, the broom raises automatically when the sweeper is reversed and is returned to its sweep position and previously set down pressure when a forward direction is resumed
