MAINTENANCE

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
brushes. "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
brushes 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 POLISHER.
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.

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.
Advantages 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.
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 brushes should be checked before each
days work for wire, string, wear and damage. The
scrub brushes should be replaced if brush bristles
are missing or if yellow Perform Alert
