SCRUBBER DRYER TIPS AND TRICKS FROM THE EXPERTS


John Brill, Sales Director for Nilfisk, offers some pointers for using a scrubber dryer where it matters: on the ground.


Scrubber dryers have come a very long way over the last decade; innovations have been plentiful in addition to big reductions in power, water and chemical consumption.


However, old habits die hard. Has the message got through to all operatives, and what about the individuals making the purchasing decisions? Here are some key pieces of advice:


1


DON’T GO TOO FAST! A good result depends on an adequate amount of water and chemical being applied to let the machine do its work. If the settings are wrong and you are in a rush the machine simply won’t have the ingredients to get the job


done. Adjust your water flow rate or use an automated scrubber dryer that will set a maximum for all elements.


2


USE A DOSING SYSTEM The right amount of a good


quality chemical will produce the best cleaning result every time. Using too much chemical is expensive and in some cases can result in an unhealthy residue being left on the floor. Most users don’t use a dosing system because the machine has been purchased without one or they are untrained. All good manufacturers should provide operator training on request, ask the question!


3


DOUBLE SCRUB IF YOU HAVE TO


If a high footfall area is particularly dirty just double scrub. It does not add that much time and is very effective.


4


USE A DIAMOND PAD Using a diamond pad on a


marble or terrazzo floor is almost miraculous. Don’t be scared of it, there is no going back once you have seen the results.


5


PURCHASE WISELY If budget allows, purchase a new scrubber dryer with all the ‘toys’. Units such as the award- winning Nilfisk SC500 feature automatic


adjustment of water and detergent flow according to the speed of the machine. An informative display, one touch button and option for water only cleaning make it super easy to use. Remarkably quiet operation also makes it ideal for daytime cleaning.


6


CONSIDER A CYLINDRICAL ROLLER BRUSH


A cylindrical brush option provides for excellent performance in one pass – both sweep and scrub. Industrial machines like the Nilfisk SC6000 provide exceptional performance in a difficult environment. A roller brush with variable brush pressure and pumped water provides a consistent level of water pressure. It really does make all the difference.


7


SOURCE A THOROUGH DEMONSTRATION


Make sure you receive a thorough demonstration from the manufacturer or distributor. Really put the scrubber dryer through its paces. The salesman should be very knowledgeable and able to discuss and demonstrate all variables. It’s a big decision, so make it wisely.


8


SERVICE, SERVICE, SERVICE You would not buy a car and


expect it to keep performing well with zero attention. Regular preventative maintenance will maintain performance, reduce breakdowns and extend the life of the machine. Consider it an investment not a cost.
