The Eureka E81 Scrubber Dryer is a cleaning machine designed for industrial and commercial use, primarily for cleaning hard floors. It operates by dispensing a mixture of low-foam scrubber dryer detergent and cold/tepid water onto the floor. This solution is then agitated by a brush or pad to scrub and clean the surface. Subsequently, the dirty water is vacuumed back up into a recovery tank, leaving the floor dry.

Function Description:

The E81 is engineered to efficiently clean most types of hard floors. Its core function is to scrub and dry floors in a single pass, making it suitable for maintaining cleanliness in various environments. The machine is not suitable for hazardous or zoned areas, nor for unswept floors. It is crucial that dust and debris are swept or vacuumed prior to using the E81 to prevent damage and ensure effective cleaning.

Important Technical Specifications:

While specific numerical technical specifications like motor power or tank capacity are not provided in the document, several operational and maintenance aspects imply certain technical characteristics:

Battery Life: With new batteries, the machine can run for approximately 3-4 hours or more.
Charging Time: It requires 8-12 hours for a full charge, depending on the specific model.
Battery Cycle Life: Battery performance may be affected after around 700-1000 charge cycles. For example, charging once a day results in approximately 365 cycles per year (2-3 years lifespan), while charging twice per week results in 104 cycles per year (6+ years lifespan). This indicates the use of rechargeable batteries, likely deep-cycle, designed for sustained discharge.
Detergent Type: Specifically requires low-foam scrubber dryer detergent.
Water Temperature: Only cold or tepid water should be used. Hot water is explicitly prohibited.

Usage Features:

The E81 is designed for ease of use by authorized and trained operators.

Pre-Operation Checks: Before use, operators should check that the charger shows a fully charged green light (if on charge), inspect the brush/pad holder (warning against dirty/worn pads to prevent floor damage), check squeegee rubbers, ensure the recovery tank is empty and the solution tank is full, and verify the recovery tank gasket cover is in place.
Operation Sequence:
1. Switch on using the key.
2. Lower the brush plate and switch on the brush.
3. Lower the squeegee and switch on the vacuum.
4. Set the desired solution level using the lever.
5. It is critical not to stop the machine over the same area with brushes spinning, as this could damage the floor.
Post-Operation Drying: At the end of a washing operation, the brush should be lifted, the brush switch turned off, and the squeegee kept down to complete drying the floor. After drying, lift the squeegee and wait several seconds before switching off the vacuum. This prevents water droplets from falling onto the floor.
Accessories: The machine utilizes various accessories including brushes, pads, detergent, and squeegee rubbers. Users must ensure they are using the correct combination of accessories for the specific task and type of floor.

Maintenance Features:

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and effective operation of the E81.

Tanks: The recovery tank should be emptied when full or after each use. Both the solution and recovery tanks should be drained and rinsed after use.
Filters:
- The ball filter in the recovery tank should be rinsed after each use.
- The solution tank filter should be removed and cleaned regularly (weekly).
- The vacuum filter should be cleaned daily.
Brushes/Pads: The brush/pad must be removed and checked at least once per week to avoid seizure.
Squeegee: The squeegee should be cleaned after use.
Batteries: Battery levels should be checked weekly, specifically for wet batteries.
Charging Protocol: Batteries should only be charged when they have run out of charge. "Opportune charging" (e.g., during tea breaks) is explicitly discouraged.
Pre-Cleaning: Floors must be swept or vacuumed before using the E81. Using the machine on an unswept floor is prohibited.

The Eureka E81 Scrubber Dryer is a robust cleaning solution designed for efficient floor maintenance, emphasizing proper operational procedures and consistent maintenance for optimal performance and extended lifespan.
