Used on all types of floors. Good resistance to wear and tear, and hot water (no greater than 60 .
The Polypropylene brush is non-hygroscopic and therefore retains its characteristics even when
working in wet conditions.

NYLON BRUSH
Used on all types of floors. Excellent resistance to wear and tear, and hot water (even over 60 ). The
nylon is hygroscopic and so tends to lose its characteristics over time when working in wet condi-
tions.

ABRASIVE BRUSH
The bristles of this type of brush are charged with highly aggressive abrasives. It is used to clean
very dirty floors. To avoid floor damage, work only with the pressure strictly necessary.

THICKNESS OF THE BRISTLES
Thicker bristles are more rigid and are therefore used on smooth floors or floors with small joints.
On uneven floors or those with deep joints, it is advisable to use softer bristles which can enter the
gaps more easily.
Remember that when the bristles are worn and therefore too short, they will become rigid and are
no longer able to penetrate and clean deep down. In this case, like with over-large bristles, the
brush tends to jump.

PAD HOLDER
The pad holder is recommended for cleaning shiny surfaces. There are two types of pad holder:
1.The traditional pad holder is fitted with a series of anchor points that allow the abrasive floor pad
to be held and dragged while working.
2.The gentre lock type pad holder not only has anchor points, but also a snap-type central locking
system in plastic that allows the abrasive floor pad to be perfectly centred and held without any risk
of it becoming detached. This type of holder is especially suitable for machines with several bruses,
where the centring of the abrasive floor pads is difficult
