GENERAL
BATTERIES: The highest maintenance item on your
machine will be its storage batteries. Please read
the "About Batteries" section of this book.
BRUSHES: Replace the brushes when they stop
scrubbing to your standards. Note that choice of the
proper brush fiber is very important to good
scrubbing. There are several different fibers
available. Rotate brushes often (every 8 hours of
use).
Fibers include: polypropylene, nylon, Strato-Grit,
Nylo-Grit, and Scrub-Grit. Please ask your dealer for
his brush recommendation, or call the Factory at 1-
800-634-4060 for advice from us.
We recommend Factory Cat brushes. They are
designed specifically for our machine. Their
fiber is high quality and long-lasting, and use
plastic cores that are tougher than the wood
cores some "will-fit" makers provide. Finally, we
believe you will find them reasonably priced.
