Scrub Brushes; Finished Floors - Windsor SC20 10052190 Operating Instructions Manual

Scrub Brushes

NOTE: All original equipment brushes are equipped
with "Perform Alert©". This feature will tell the
operator when it is time to replace the scrub brush.
"Perform Alert©" brushes have pre-trimmed bright
yellow tufts to indicate the length of a worn out brush.
When the tufts in the scrub brush wear to a length
equal to the yellow tufts, the scrub brush should be
replaced.
There are five different types of brushes available to
cover applications from cleaning heavily soiled floors to
polishing. A pad driver is also available to take
advantage of the many cleaning pads on the market
and further add to the flexibility of the Saber Compact.
Please refer to the following to assist in selecting the
proper brush or pad for the work at hand.
Uncoated Floors
Aggressive Grit is a nylon fiber impregnated with
silicone carbide grit. It grinds away stain, soil, and
removes surface material.
Mild Grit is a less aggressive silicone carbide grit
suitable for cleaning medium soil conditions. Advan-
tages are faster ground speed than nylon bristles on
light solid applications.
Nylon is a general-purpose scrub brush with stiff
bristles. Polypropylene works well for maintaining
concrete, wood and tile floors.

Finished Floors

Nylon Polish is the softest brush. It will gently clean
finished tile or terrazzo floors without removing floor
finish or floor material. Used for washing highly
polished or burnished floors.
Nylon bristles are used in a variety of applications on
coated or uncoated surfaces.
White Pads (Polishing) are used for dry polishing to
achieve a high-gloss appearance, or surface washing
on highly polished or burnished floors.
Red Pads (Buffing) are used for light-duty scrubbing.
When used with a mild detergent they will provide
surface cleaning without removing the finish.

Blue Pads (Scrubbing) are used for heavy-duty
scrubbing and light stripping. The blue pads remove
less finish than brown stripping pads, yet will remove
black marks, stains and dirt.
Brown Pads (Stripping) are used for easy and
complete removal of old floor waxes/finishes. They will
quickly remove ground in dirt, black heel marks, and
spills.When used with the proper stripper, this pad
leaves the floor clean and ready for finishing.
The scrub brush should be checked before each days
work for wire, string, wear and damage. The scrub
brush should be replaced if brush bristles are missing
or if yellow Perform Alert Ó indicates minimum brush
length.
