Pad Driver or Brush
If your preference is to have a dedicated product, select a brush. If you have a variety of applications, your choice may be a pad holder. The surface being cleaned and the amount of dirt buildup will help determine the selection. The key to remember when ordering these items is the block diameter in relationship to the machine size. A brush is sized 2 inches smaller than the machine because of the flare of the brush fibers. Pad drivers are specified 1 inch smaller than the machine.
How to Break in a Brush
Before using a new brush on carpeting, the brush should be broken in according to the following directions. This will eliminate possible excess drag by “tipping” the strands, removing any possible burrs caused by the manufacturing process.
Break-in Procedure
1. Mount the brush on the floor machine. Follow ALL instructions included in yourowner‘s manual.
2. Find a rough textured floor surface, preferably unfinished concrete.
3. Operate the machine on this surface. Run the machine DRY for approximately 15-20 minutes. The brush fibers will take a slight set or lean in the direction of machine rotation.
4. Rinse the brush to remove any dirt caught when running machine. The brush is now ready to be used on carpeting.
