  • a bracket for mounting to the surface cleaning machine;

    a mount pivotably mounted to the bracket about a mount axis generally parallel to the surface;

    a gas spring having a first end pivotably mounted about a first axis relative to the bracket and a second end pivotably mounted about a second axis relative to the mount, with the first and second axes being parallel to and spaced from the mount axis to thereby engage the picking up means with the surface at a force which is constant independent of the pivotal position of the mount about the mount axis.
