HOW THE MACHINE WORKS
The scrub components of the machine are asolution tank, scrub brushes or pads, a squeegee,a vacuum fan, and a recovery tank.
Water and detergent, from the solution tank, flowto the floor through a solution valve to the scrubbrushes or pads. The brushes or pads scrub thefloor. As the machine is moved forward thesqueegee wipes the dirty solution off the floor,which is then picked up and drawn into therecovery tank.
The steering handles control the direction andspeed of the machine in forward or reverse. Byrotating the steering handles forward, the machinepropels forward. By rotating the handles towardsyou, the machine propels backward.
Three different widths of scrub heads andsqueegees are available for the machine.
The scrub head widths are as follows; the model700 (700 mm), the model 800 (800 mm), and themodel 900 (900 mm). The 700 mm squeegee isused with the 700 model scrub head, as well asthe 800 mm with the model 800, and the 900 mmwith the model 900.
OPERATION
175680 330459 (06- 2015)
FaST SCRUBBING SYSTEM (OPTION)
The FaST (Foam Scrubbing Technology) systemoperates by injecting the FaST PAK concentrateagent (A) into the system with a small amount ofwater and compressed air. This mixture creates alarge volume of expanded wet foam.
The expanded foam mixture is then dispersedonto the floor (B) while the machine is scrubbing.When the squeegee picks up the mixture, thepatented foaming agent has collapsed and isrecovered into the recovery tank.
The FaST system can be used with all doublescrubbing and heavy duty scrubbing applications.
NOTE: Do not enable the FaST system withconventional cleaning detergents in the solutiontank. Drain, raise and refill the solution tank withclear cool water only before operating the FaSTsystem. Conventional cleaning detergents/restorers may cause failure to the FaST solutionsystem.
NOTE: Storage or transporting machinesequipped with FaST in freezing temperaturesrequires special procedures. Check with aTENNANT representative for advice.
ec-H2O NanoClean SCRUBBING SYSTEM(ec-H2O Model)
When using the ec-H2O NanoClean technology,normal water passes through a module where it iselectrically converted into a cleaning solution. Theelectrically converted water attacks the dirt,allowing the machine to easily scrub away thesuspended soil. The converted water then returnsto normal water in the recovery tank.
The ec-H2O system can be used with all doublescrubbing applications.
NOTE: Do not enable the ec-H2O system withconventional cleaning detergents in the solutiontank. Drain, raise and refill the solution tank withclear cool water only before operating the ec-H2Osystem. Conventional cleaning detergents/restorers may cause failure to the ec-H2Osolution system.
