SCRUBBING AND BRUSH INFORMATION

D Pick up oversized debris before scrubbing.
Pick up pieces of wire, string, twine, etc.,
which could become wrapped around the
scrub brush.
D Plan the scrubbing in advance. Try to
arrange long runs with minimum stopping
and starting. Do an entire floor or section at
one time.
D Try to scrub as straight a path as possible.
Avoid bumping into posts or scraping the
sides of the machine. When scrubbing dead
end aisles, start at the closed end of the
aisle and scrub your way out. Overlap the
scrub paths by a few centimeters (inches).
D If you see poor scrubbing performance, stop
scrubbing and refer to MACHINE
TROUBLESHOOTING.
