If your Tennant Scrubber's scrubbing performance is poor, start by removing any debris caught on the scrub brushes. Check with a Tennant representative to ensure you are using the correct detergent and brush type for your cleaning needs. Replace the scrub brushes if they are worn. Reset the scrub brush motor circuit breakers if they have tripped. Reduce the scrub brush down pressure. Ensure even brush pressure by leveling the scrub head. If you have a cylindrical scrub head, replace any broken brush drive belts. Low battery charge can also affect performance, so charge the batteries until the charger automatically turns off.

If your Tennant Scrubber leaves trailing water or exhibits poor water pickup, several factors could be at play. Start by checking the squeegee blades for wear and either rotate or replace them. Ensure the squeegee is properly adjusted. A clogged vacuum hose can also be the culprit, so flush it out. Inspect the vacuum fan inlet filter; if it's dirty or wet, clean and dry it. Remove any debris caught on the squeegee. Verify that the vacuum hose is securely connected to the squeegee or recovery tank, replacing it if damaged. Ensure the tank cover is completely closed and free from obstructions. Finally, inspect the recovery tank seals for tears and replace them if necessary.

If your Tennant Scrubber isn't dispensing enough solution, start by ensuring the solution tank is full. Check the solution control rod; if it's broken or misaligned, replace or adjust it. Make sure the solution flow is turned on. If the supply lines are plugged, flush them. A clogged or stuck solution solenoid might also be the cause, so clean or replace it. If your scrubber has an ES mode, verify the ES switch is on.

If the vacuum fan on your Tennant Scrubber won't turn on, first check if the recovery tank is full and drain it if necessary. Foam buildup in the recovery tank can also cause this issue, so empty the tank. You may need to reduce the amount of detergent you're using or switch to a different detergent. Consider using a defoamer. Finally, check if the vacuum fan circuit breaker has tripped and reset it if needed.
