A simple preventive maintenance schedule

A little consistency keeps machines going far longer. A small check each week prevents big trouble later.

Weekly inspection steps

●     Check squeegee rubbers for tears

●     Rinse recovery and solution tanks

●     Inspect the filter screen

●     Wipe dust from the vacuum motor cover

●     Look for loose caps, knobs, or hoses

A five-minute walk-around can save hours later.

Monthly parts checks

●     Inspect brushes and pads for wear

●     Test the charger and battery leads

●     Look at vacuum hoses for small cracks

●     Clear any debris around the motor intake

Monthly checks catch gradual wear before it becomes a real problem.

Quarterly and annual replacements

High-use environments, like public car parks and shopping centers, should replace certain parts on a set schedule.

Typical replacement cycle:

●     Brushes & pads: every 3–6 months

●     Squeegee blades: every 3 months

●     Filters: every 6 months

Vacuum motors: every 12–18 months
