HOW THE MACHINE WORKS

T12 With Cylindrical Brushes

T12 With Disk Brushes

The 1- STEP button makes it possible toimmediately begin scrubbing by operating all thescrubbing functions.

When in the conventional Scrub mode, a waterand detergent mixture is used to scrub the floor.

When in the optional ec-H2O (electricallyconverted water) mode, normal water passesthrough a module where it is oxygenated andcharged with an electric current. The electricallyconverted water changes into a blended acidicand alkaline solution forming a neutral pH cleaner.The converted water attacks the dirt, breaks it intosmaller particles, and pulls it off the floor surfaceallowing the machine to easily scrub away thesuspended soil. The converted water then returnsto normal water in the recovery tank. The ec-H2Osystem can be used with all double scrubbing andheavy duty scrubbing applications.

BRUSH AND PAD INFORMATION

For best results, use the appropriate brush or padfor the cleaning application. Listed below arebrushes and pads and the applications for whicheach is best suited.

NOTE: The amount and type of soilage play animportant role in determining the type of brush orpad to use. Contact a Tennant representative forspecific recommendations.

Nylon brush (Disk)* - Softer nylon bristles arerecommended for scrubbing coated floors. Cleanswithout scuffing.

Polyester brush (Cylindrical) - Softer generalpurpose polyester bristles gently clean whilescrubbing. Perfect for sensitive floor surfaces.Polyester does not absorb water so it is preferredover Nylon in wet applications.

PolyPro brush (Cylindrical) - Heavy dutypolypropylene bristles provide a more aggressivecleaning performance and can more easily liftcompacted dirt, debris, and sand while offeringexcellent scrubbing performance.

Polypropylene brush (Cylindrical and Disk)* -General purpose polypropylene bristles lift lightlycompacted dirt without scuffing high-gloss coatedfloors.

Super AB brush (Cylindrical and Disk)* -Nylon fiber with an abrasive grit to remove stainsand compacted dirt. Aggressive action on anysurface. Performs well on buildup, grease, or tiremarks.

* This brush is also available for the side brush.

Stripping pad (Brown)- For stripping of floorfinish to prepare the floor for recoating.

Scrubbing pad (Blue) - For medium toheavy- duty scrubbing. Removes dirt, spills, andscuffs.

Buffing pad (Red) - For light duty scrubbingwithout removing floor finish.

Polishing pad (White) - For maintaining highlypolished or burnished floors.

High productivity stripping pad (Black) - Foraggressive stripping of heavy finishes or sealers,or for very heavy duty scrubbing. This pad canonly be used with the grip pad driver, not thetufted pad driver.

Surface preparation pad (Maroon) - For veryaggressive chemical free removal of floor finish toprepare the floor for recoating

Grip pad driver - The grip- face backing allowspads to be fully used and holds pads in placewithout penetrating the pad. The spring- activatedcentering device works with all Tennant pads andallows for fast, easy pad replacement.

Tufted pad driver - Standard pad driver hasshort bristles, or “tufts,” on the back to hold thepad in place. This driver works with all Tennantpads except the black high productivity pad.

NOTE: Do Not check the electrolyte level if themachine is equipped with the battery wateringsystem. Proceed to the BATTERY WATERINGSYSTEM (OPTION).

08247

FOR SAFETY: When servicing machine, keepall metal objects off batteries. Avoid contactwith battery acid.

The level should be slightly above the batteryplates as shown before charging. Add distilledwater if low. DO NOT OVERFILL. The electrolytewill expand and may overflow when charging.After charging, distilled water can be added up toabout 3 mm (0.12 in) below the sight tubes.

Before Charging After Charging

NOTE: Make sure the battery caps are in placewhile charging. There may be a sulfur smell aftercharging batteries. This is normal.

MAINTENANCE-FREE BATTERIES

Maintenance- free batteries do not requirewatering. Cleaning and other routine maintenanceis still required.

CHECKING CONNECTIONS / CLEANING

After every 200 hours of use check for loosebattery connections and clean the surface of thebatteries, including terminals and cable clamps,with a strong solution of baking soda and water.Replace any worn or damaged wires. Do notremove battery caps when cleaning batteries.
