What to do if Tennant Scrubber vacuum fan won't turn on because of optical sensors?
- G
  Gary NguyenSep 5, 2025
  If the vacuum fan in your Tennant Scrubber won't turn on due to optical sensors, it might be because the recovery tank full sensors are dirty (clean the sensors and reset the key switch), there's an oily/ink film buildup on the recovery tank sensors (use the correct detergent), or you're operating in bright sunlight (install sensor sun shields). You can also change to magnetic sensors.

  Poor scrubbing performance can stem from several factors. Debris might be caught on the scrub brushes, which needs to be removed. The scrub brushes or pads could be worn and need replacing. The scrub brush motor circuit breaker(s) may have tripped and need resetting. The battery charge might be low, requiring charging. You may need to adjust scrub brush down pressure. Also, consider that an improper detergent, brush, or pad may be in use.

What to do if my Tennant 5700 Scrubber has little or no solution flow?

  If there's little to no solution flow, start by checking if the solution tank is empty and fill it if needed. Ensure the solution flow is turned on. The solution control cable might be broken or out of adjustment, requiring replacement or adjustment. The solution supply lines could be plugged and need flushing, or the solution supply line filter might be dirty and need cleaning. The solution solenoid might be clogged or stuck, so clean or replace it. If in ESt mode, ensure the ESt switch is on.
