3. Operating Instructions
These rubber extraction strips are passive components of the BRMHK4300 scrubber dryer machine's squeegee system. Their operation is directly tied to the proper functioning of the scrubber dryer machine itself.
Once correctly installed, the strips work by creating a vacuum seal with the floor, allowing the machine's suction motor to effectively collect water and cleaning solution, leaving the floor dry.
- Machine Operation: Operate your BRMHK4300 scrubber dryer machine according to its specific user manual.
- Squeegee Pressure: Ensure the squeegee assembly, including these strips, is set to the correct pressure as recommended by the scrubber dryer machine manufacturer for optimal water pickup.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check the strips during operation for any signs of wear, damage, or improper contact with the floor.
4. Maintenance
Regular maintenance of the rubber extraction strips is crucial for maintaining the efficiency of your scrubber dryer machine and extending the lifespan of the strips.
- Daily Cleaning: After each use, remove the strips and rinse them thoroughly with clean water to remove any dirt, debris, or chemical residues.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the strips for cuts, tears, excessive wear, or deformation. Worn strips will reduce water pickup efficiency.
- Storage: Store spare strips flat and in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or harsh chemicals to prevent material degradation.
- Replacement: Replace strips when they show significant signs of wear, such as rounded edges, nicks, or reduced flexibility, as this will impair their performance.
5. Troubleshooting
If your scrubber dryer machine is not effectively picking up water, the rubber extraction strips may be a contributing factor. Consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- Poor Water Pickup:
- Check for Wear: Inspect the strips for excessive wear, especially along the edges that contact the floor. Replace if worn.
- Improper Installation: Ensure the strips are correctly installed and securely fastened in the squeegee assembly.
- Obstructions: Check for any debris lodged between the strips or in the squeegee channel.
- Squeegee Adjustment: Verify that the squeegee assembly is properly adjusted for optimal contact pressure with the floor. Refer to your machine's manual.
- Streaking:
- Dirty Strips: Clean the strips thoroughly to remove any residue that might be causing streaks.
- Damaged Strips: Inspect for small nicks or cuts that could be leaving water trails. Replace if damaged.
If issues persist after checking the strips, consult the main user manual for your BRMHK4300 scrubber dryer machine or contact GGM Gastro technical support.
