SCRUB BRUSHES
The scrub brushes should be checked daily for
wire or string tangled around the brush or brush
drive hub. The brushes should also be checked
for any damage and wear.
DISK BRUSHES
The disk brushes should be replaced if large
amounts of bristles are missing, or if the
remaining bristles’length is less than 10 mm
(0.38 in).
NOTE: Be sure to replace brushes in sets.
Otherwise one brush will be more aggressive than
the other.
Cleaning pads must be placed on pad drives
before they are ready to use. The cleaning pad is
held in place by a pad holder.
Cleaning pads need to be cleaned immediately
after using with soap and water. Do not wash the
pads with a pressure washer. Hang dry pads, or
lie flat to dry.
REPLACING THE DISK BRUSHES
1. Raise the scrub head.
2. Turn the machine power off and set the
parking brake if your machine has this
option.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or
servicing machine, stop on level
surface, and turn off machine.
3. Open the access cover on either corner of
the scrub head.
