Maintaining your Duplex floor scrubber in top condition is crucial for extending its lifespan and ensuring the highest quality of cleanliness. A brief, 10-minute basic maintenance routine, conducted right after use, can make a significant difference.
In addition to these routine checks, we strongly recommend having your Duplex floor scrubber serviced annually. Given the intricate gears and bearings within the machine, professional servicing is key to its longevity.

Duplex Floor Scrubber Basic Maintenance Tips

Cleaning

Always clean the machine after use.

Detach water tanks and recovery tank for thorough cleaning.

Remove brushes to rinse.

Wipe belts and the machine's underside with a damp cloth.

Steam Kit Descaling

Descale the steam kit quarterly to remove buildup by adding descaler mix into the steam kit water tank and running it into a bucket.

Rinse by flushing with a full tank of water afterward.

Tanks - Water/Steam

Ensure the water/steam distribution holes in the tanks are unobstructed and clean for even steam distribution.

Conveyor Belts

Clean the black pickup conveyor belts with a damp cloth to remove dirt.

Apply Duplex Silicon Spray post-cleaning to prevent the rubber from drying out.

Power Cord

Regularly inspect the power cord for any damage like blisters, kinks, or exposed wires, which can occur if the cord is run over by the machine or wound too tightly.

Trimmer Strips

Maintain cleanliness of the white trimmer strips on the recovery tank for optimal pickup.

Replace the strips when a gap forms between the strips and the black belts, indicating wear.

Wheels

Check that the four wheels under the machine are debris-free and spin freely for easy transport. Ensure they are also level.

Brushes

Alternate the direction of the brushes to avoid bristle memory.

Select the appropriate brush type for your floor surface.
