Operation
Operating personnel must
read the operating manual
through carefully. Operating
personnel should complete
their initial test drive on open
ground or a test track until they
are familiar with the individual
operating elements and the re-
spective functions.
3.1
Method of operation
The Hakomatic B 1050 W is a scrub-
ber-drier designed for wet cleaning
rough and structured hard floors inside
buildings, such as multi-storey car
parks or in logistics and industrial areas
(refer to Fig. 11). It cleans floors by
means of intensive scrubbing with the
aid of a water and cleaning agent solu-
tion. The squeegee at the rear of the ve-
hicle vacuums up the waste water into
the recovery tank in the same working
process. The Hakomatic B 1050 W is a
ride-on machine designed for the eco-
nomic cleaning of large floor areas in
buildings. A seat contact ensures that
the vehicle can only be operated when
an operator is seated on the driver's
seat.

The most important vehicle elements
are described below:
3.1.1 Rotary brush head
(Fig. 12/2)
The two rotary brushes, which can be
changed without the need for any tools,
in the rotary brush head provide a high
cleaning performance. The solution
supply starts automatically when the ro-
tary brush head is lowered. The solution
is sprayed onto the floor to be cleaned
by means of three nozzles. At the same
time, the contra-rotating rotary brushes
start to rotate. They then scrub the floor
in such a way that even dirt which has
penetrated more deeply is removed.
The two rotary brushes are each driven
by a splashproof electric motor. The
contra-rotating motion of the rotary
brushes also picks up coarse dirt and
throws it into the downstream waste
container (sweeping function). In addi-
tion to the cleaning effect, this also en-
sures that coarse dirt, such as cable
ties, cigarette ends etc., does not slide
under the sealing strip of the squeegee
and, thus, impair the vacuuming results.
The waste water left over is then re-
moved by the squeegee which follows
on.
