Automatic Escalator Deep Cleaning Machine – Rotomatic v1.0

Rosemor International Ltd reserves the right to adjust the machine and any documentation.  This 
operation and maintenance instruction manual is intended for service personnel only.

Preliminary remarks

Safety and reliability are essential to guarantee a long and trouble-free service life of the Rotomatic. 
In order to fulfil these requirements, the operator must obtain sufficient skills in both handling and 
operating the machine and of its maintenance and care. It is therefore vital that the operator 
receives instruction and training from either Rosemor International Ltd or one of its specialists 
before the cleaning machine is used for the first time.  

This operation and maintenance manual only represent additional assistance for the operator in 
correct and safe use of the cleaning machine. Reading this manual does not qualify any person for 
safe use of the Rotomatic. 

Rosemor International Ltd or one of its customer service centre’s should be informed immediately if 
any technical fault in this cleaning machine is suspected or has occurred.

Automatic Self-Cleaning Mode

Rotomatic is equipped with a revolutionary new 
feature: 

Self-Cleaning Mode.

Now, after you’ve finished cleaning an escalator, 
save yourself valuable time and energy on the 
laborious task of manually cleaning the 
underside of the machine by now simply 
activating the self-cleaning mode. 

Self-cleaning mode diverts and sprays clean 
fresh water back up inside the machine, across 
the brushes and flushes out the vacuum recovery 
tray all in one, automatic program that requires 
just 5 minutes (300 seconds) to complete.

This feature, combined with our new 10s ‘Rapid’ 
cleaning program, makes the Rotomatic the 
fastest and most efficient escalator cleaning 
machine in the world.

More info on this exciting new feature can be 
found on Pg. 26 of this manual.
