Resolving a Suction Issue on a Viper Fang 20HD for a Grimsby Retailer

Image
It’s always worth checking over your machine before requesting a call out as this can save you time and money. This was the case recently at a retail store in Grimsby , Lincolnshire where we were asked to attend in order to resolve a suction issue with their floor cleaning machine. Grimsby is a large port town on the North Sea coast known for its trade – a place where retailers can fit right in! Assessing the Cleaning Machine We sent one of our engineers on his way to the retail store in Grimsby, Lincolnshire to see what he could find out about the condition of the machine and if possible repair it on-site. The customer had reported to us that the machine, a Viper Fang 20HD Pedestrian Scrubber Drier was generating zero suction when being used. This meant that the daily clean to keep on top of dirt and scuffing could not take place as the machine would simply leave the dirty water on the floor and not extract it back into the recovery tank on the machine. Upon inspection of th...

Floor Cleaning at a Refrigerated Food Distribution Warehouse

A3 Machines recently received a call from a distribution warehouse in Telford who distribute refrigerated food for a well-known supermarket. Besides needing to keep the floor of the distribution center clean, they also had an issue with "puddles" of water forming in the pedestrian walkways caused by condensation from the cooling fans dripping down the metal roof supports onto the floor. Understanding the Floor Cleaning Requirements Many of these areas where the problem was occurring were in less accessible parts of the warehouse which were difficult to get close to using their current floor cleaning machine.

Ideally, they wanted a machine that would handle both tasks and a combination of events prompted the company to act. First their current machine was quite old ...

Viper Fang 20 Parts Replaced Large Retail Store in Blackburn

One of our customers maintains a very large retail store in Blackburn and they contacted us recently regarding a traction issue with their floor cleaning machine which needed replacement Viper Fang 20 Parts. The customer reported to us that their machine was veering to one side when they attempted to push it forward. This was a serious problem for them as it made the machine unusable and therefore requested an on-site repair from one of our engineers. The store was based in Blackburn , Lancashire , a large town in the county, notable for its historical relevance in the wool industry and now the subject of large, well-funded high street renovation. Assessing the Cleaning Machine Our engineer travelled north from our headquarters in Shropshire, to the large retail store in Blackburn. Due to its size, the store had a lot of floor space which needed to be maintained on a daily basis due to high customer footfall which brings dirt into the store. In order to keep in line with store sta...
