A3 Floor Cleaning Machines

The owner of an independent retail store in Nottingham called us recently to report what he thought was a switch fault with their Viper Fang 20HD scrubber dryer. This machine has several rocker switches on the main panel that control various functions and they were unable to get any power to the water release and vacuum mechanisms. A3 Machines service floor cleaning machines for a wide range of customers from food manufacturers, large cleaning companies and retail chains right down to smaller independent shops. Quite often the machine has seen a lot of use which causes wear and tear and so like a car which has travelled a lot of miles it will develop the occasional fault. The store owner relied on the machine to keep the floors clean and maintain a presentable appearance for their customers and without being able to engage the water release or the vacuum to recover the water from the floor the machine was unusable. Diagnosing a Viper Fang 20HD Switch Fault Our engineer made th...

If your reading this post looking for a Viper Transaxle for your sports car, I’m afraid you have come to the wrong place, A3 Machines are specialists in the supply and maintenance of floor cleaning machines and the Viper in question was a Viper Fang 24T scrubber dryer.  We received a service call from the cleaning manager of a large retail store informing us of a drive issue they were experiencing with their floor cleaning machine. The T in Viper Fang 24T stands for traction and refers to the drive motor in the Viper Transaxle, given it was no longer worked was quite concerning as the company had only purchased the machine from us only a short time ago however it was still covered by the manufacturers warranty. Our engineers cover the whole country however in this instance, the store wasn’t too far away from our offices and was located in Birmingham in the Midlands . As one of the largest cities in the United Kingdom, Birmingham has a large array of shops and retailers and ou...

A3 Machines recently received a call from the cleaning manager of a large retail discount store asking if we would be able to do a Karcher Repair and Service. They were experiencing an issue with rollers on their Karcher BR40/25C floor scrubber which is an older model and no longer part of the Karcher range. The store was located in Birmingham which is just over an hour’s drive from our premises and familiar ground for our Engineers due to the large array of shops and retailers in the City Centre and surrounding areas. Karcher Repair and Service One of our engineers made the relatively short journey over to Birmingham, travelling to our customer in the large discount store. The high footfall that the store attracted will obviously result in the build up of dirt, meaning cleaning the floors regularly was an absolute necessity. The cleaning staff relied on the Karcher BR40/25C Scrubber Dryer to clean the floors of the store and so needed it the machines operational as quickly as pos...

A food preparation business located in Nottingham in the Midlands called our cleaning machine service line about a Viper Fang 24T Repair .  The machine appeared to be cutting out during use, or in more technical terms, was demonstrating intermittent loss of drive. The companies factory was in Nottingham which is one of the UK’s largest cities, and is considered a UNESCO city of a literature for the famed contribution of writers such as Lord Byron and D.H Lawrence. Diagnosing the Fault on the Viper Fang 24T Our engineer made the journey to Nottingham from our base in Shropshire, to diagnose the fault and repair the floor cleaning machine that was experiencing the intermittent problem. Apparently, the machine would simply stop, but without any obvious reason and then, again for no apparent reason would become operational again. Clearly this would be a problem for anyone who needed to use the Viper Fang 24T scrubber dryer on a routine basis, but for a food preparation establis...

We received a call from a cleaning contractor who runs a cleaning team at discount retail store regarding a floor scrubber machine . The store reported that their machine had recently started to leak water whilst in operation and naturally concerned they decided to call us in to have the machine inspected and repaired. We have a number of engineers who travel around the country carrying out repairs and arranged for one of our engineers to make an inspection of the machine and carry out any necessary repairs if possible. The store was located in Nottingham , in the Midlands which is about a 90 minute trip east of our base in Market Drayton along the A50. Your probably already aware that Nottingham is most famous as being the setting for the story of Robin Hood but did you know that it’s also one of the most densely populated cities in the United Kingdom and the home of writer D.H. Lawrence , who, amongst others contributed to a literary culture which earned Nottingham the UNESCO titl...
