MACHINE OPERATION
DOUBLE SCRUB
Floors which are heavily soiled or have thick accumulations
of floor finish may not clean sufficiently with one pass. In
these cases it will be necessary to double scrub.
To double scrub, begin scrubbing as usual, but after push-
ing number 1, press the squeegee button to turn off vac mo-
tor. Manually raise the squeegee. Make the first pass over
the surface being cleaned with the solution on, and brush-
es down and squeegee up. This allows the solution to stay
in contact with the soil while loosening the surface accumu-
lation with the brushes. Allow time for the first application
to stay in contact with floor. Length of time between the first
and second pass depends on amount of accumulation and
the type of chemical being used. A second scrubbing with
the squeegee down and again the solution and brushes on
will further loosen soil. The additional application of solu-
tion will further assist the difficult cleaning job.
