When using a floor machine the best advice is always to pay attention to the unique instructions for your equipment. If you need the specific manual for any Bissell commercial product, please give us a call, or navigate to that product on the website and check the documents section for any relevant documents for that product. Aside from the product-specific instructions, there are a few practices you should always maintain when cleaning floors with a floor machine.
- Mixing The Cleaning Solution: First, you will want to mix the proper amount of your cleaning solution per the instructions on the bottle. Using too much solution or shampoo can leave a residue on your floors so you should always follow the bottle’s instructions exactly.
- Choosing The Pad/Brush: Next you will want to use the correct pad or scrubbing brush for the job. Generally speaking, pads are recommended for smooth floors, while brushes are better for textured tile or uneven tile with grout lines.
- Preparing the Area: Make sure to set up appropriate wet floor signs in the area you are cleaning so customers, tenants, or other passersby are aware that you will be cleaning the floors. Additionally you will want to remove any furniture, carpeting, or other obstacles that will affect your cleaning.
- Operating Your Floor Machine: When cleaning the floors you will want to avoid fighting the floor machine. A floor machine is a very powerful device and it is helpful to move with it instead of against it. While cleaning the floors you will want to dispense cleaning liquid as you move throughout the floor. Because floor machine heads are round, you may need to hand scrub any tight corners after you are done with the floor machine.
If you need replacement pads, brushes, or other accessories for your floor care machines we would be happy to help. We carry packs of all the pads, brushes, pad holders, aprons, pad drives, as well as replacement parts for any section of your Bissell commercial cleaning product.
