The register lists here 3 versions with engine displacement from 3,922 to 4,485 cc and four cylinders. Kerb weight ranges from 5,380 to 6,510 kg, gross vehicle weight from 7,500 to 10,400 kg, length from 5,350 to 5,700 mm at a width of 1,650 to 2,340 mm.
Sweepers of this size are the workhorse of municipal road cleaning in towns and on rural roads, with suction and sweeping systems built onto a dedicated chassis. Johnston, alongside Bucher Schörling, Boschung and Ravo, is one of the established European makers of complete sweeping vehicles.
On a used Johnston sweeper, wear on the sweeping brushes and suction nozzle, the condition of the debris hopper, and the tightness of the hydraulics and water system for dust suppression are worth checking, along with frame corrosion from constant contact with road salt and moisture. Chassis parts are available through the general commercial-vehicle trade, sweeping-technology components through Johnston itself or specialist municipal-equipment suppliers.
