NORMAL SCRUBBING
Plan the scrubbing pattern in advance. The
longest track is around the perimeter of the area
to be cleaned. For efficient operation, the runs
should be the longest possible without
turning,
stopping, or raising and lowering scrub
deck/squeegee.
NOTE: In order to achieve the best possible
results, the area which is to be cleaned should be
swept before scrubbing. Large debris, strings &
wire must be removed to prevent being caught in
the brush or squeegee.
