HOW THE MACHINE WORKS
The following machine components work together
to effectively clean dirty floors: solution tank,
scrub brushes, squeegee, vacuum fan, and
recovery tank.
Water and detergent from the solution tank flow to
the floor through a solution valve. The brushes
use the detergent and water solution to scrub the
floor clean. As the machine propels forward, the
squeegee wipes the dirty solution from the floor.
The suction created by the vacuum fan then
draws the dirty solution from the squeegee into
the recovery tank.
The
steering wheel
controls the direction of
machine travel. The
directional pedal
controls the
speed and direction of the machine. The
brake
pedal
slows and stops the machine.
When using the ES mode (option), the dirty
solution in the recovery tank is filtered and
returned to the solution tank to be reused for
extended scrubbing.
The four available scrub head types use
disk
or
cylindrical
brushes.
Two different widths of scrub heads are available
for each type. Both the cylindrical and disk scrub
heads are available in 700 mm (28 in) and
800 mm (32 in) widths.
NOTE: The amount and type of soilage play an
important role in determining the type of brushes
to be used. For specific recommendations,
contact your Tennant representative.
When finished scrubbing, clean the recovery tank.
If using the ES system, drain and clean the
solution tank, and clean the ES filter.
