• Autoscrubbers are reliable and durable, but as
  with any mechanical device, maintenance is
  required to keep it running optimally. The more
  care you put into them regularly, the longer
  theyll last. Care should always be preventative
  rather than reactionary.

• Most floor scrubbers on the market are
  battery-powered. The battery pack is the most
  expensive component on the machine and a lack of
  battery maintenance is the cause of most required
  fixes. It is critical that distilled water is
  added as needed, the battery is kept charged, and
  the terminals are kept clean and tight. Ideally,
  this should be done weekly.

• It is important to keep the autoscrubber clean.
  This includes thoroughly rinsing the recovery
  tank, cleaning and inspecting the brushes and pad
  drivers, and cleaning filters regularly. Also,
  dont forget to clean the solution tank filter
  screen.

5

• It takes dedication, but the floor scrubber
  should be flushed after each use. This is
  critical because floors often arent swept
  properly prior to using the machine, which is the
  main culprit leading to issues. Flushing the
  solution prevents clogs in the solution lines.

6

• It is important to not use the autoscrubber as a
  stripping machine. It is not meant to pick up the
  sludge that results from putting stripping
  solution down. Without proper cleaning, the
  stripping solution builds up in the machine,
  causing serious problems. Additionally, scrubbing
  a rough floor speeds wear and tear.

7

• Inspect hoses for cracks, damage, and leaks
• Clean the solution tank filter screen
• Inspect wheels and casters
• Lubricate wheels and apply grease to all fittings
• Test the brake system operation

8

• Adjust drive chains
• Lubricate chains, pins, and shafts at pivot
  points
• Check skirts, housings, latches, and hinges
• Check the float shut-off operation
• Check sealing lids and gaskets

9

• Adjust the squeegee as needed
• Check the squeegee cable
• Inspect the solution valve operation
• Inspect the vacuum operation and resurface as
  needed
• Deodorize the recovery tank
