  • Page 17: How It Works

    OPERATION HOW IT WORKS The Model 510E is a rider scrubber. The machine is propelled by a electric motor via the front wheel. The machine is steered with the steering wheel and is very responsive. The main scrubbing components include a solution tank, two disc-type brushes, rear and side squeegees, a vacuum fan, and a recovery tank.
