The Saber Compact is a battery powered, hard
floor scrubber intended for commercial use.
The appliance applies a cleaning solution onto
a hard floor, scrubs the floor with a brush, and
then vacuums the soiled water back into the
recovery tank.
The machine's primary systems are the solution
system, scrub system and recovery system.
The function of the solution system is to store
cleaning solution and deliver it to the scrub
system. The solution system consists of the
solution tank, strainer, and valve. The solution
tank stores cleaning solution (water and
detergent) until it is delivered to the scrub
system. The strainer protects the valve from
debris. The machine has a ball-type valve
which controls the amount of cleaning solution
delivered to the scrub system. The solenoid
type valve controls the delivery of cleaning
solution to the scrub system. The valve
automatically prevents solution flow unless the
scrub brushes are turned on. The solution
control lever controls the amount of cleaning
solution delivered to the scrub system.
The function of the scrub system is to scrub the
floor. The scrub system consists of a rotary
type disk scrub brush, motor, and lift linkage.
The brush scrubs the floor and the motor drives
the brush. The brush lift lever raises and lowers
motor and brush.
The function of the recovery system is to
vacuum the soiled water back into the recovery
tank. The recovery system consists of the
squeegee, vacuum motor, screen, and recovery
tank. The squeegee wipes the dirty solution off
the floor as the machine moves forward. The
vacuum motor provides suction to draw the dirty
solution off the floor and into the recovery tank.
The screen protects the vacuum fan from
debris. The recovery tank stores the dirty
solution. The float ball in the tank activates
when the recovery tank is full.
