Floor scrubbers are essential for maintaining clean and safe floors in various settings, including commercial buildings, hospitals, and schools. However, like any equipment, they require proper maintenance to function efficiently and effectively. One crucial component of a floor scrubber is the solution filter, which plays a significant role in ensuring that the cleaning solution remains clean and flowing during operation.


The solution filter's primary function is to prevent debris, dirt, and other contaminants from entering the solution tank and clogging the machine's valves and nozzles. Over time, the filter can become clogged with debris, reducing its effectiveness and causing the machine to malfunction. Therefore, it's crucial to check the solution filter regularly to ensure that it's clean and functioning correctly.


Here's how to check and clean your floor scrubber's solution filter:


Step 1: Turn off the machine and unplug it from the power source.


Step 2: Locate the solution filter, which is usually located near the solution tank. Consult your machine's manual for specific instructions on locating the filter.



Step 3: Remove the filter and inspect it for any visible debris or damage. If the filter is damaged or torn, replace it immediately.


Step 4: If the filter is dirty, clean it by rinsing it with warm water and mild detergent. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove any stubborn debris.


Step 5: Rinse the filter thoroughly with clean water and let it dry completely before reinstalling it.


Step 6: Reinstall the filter and turn on the machine to test its operation.


Regularly checking and cleaning your floor scrubber's solution filter is critical for ensuring that your machine operates efficiently and effectively. By following the above steps, you can keep your machine in optimal condition and maintain clean and safe floors in your facility.
