Viper Fang Battery Charger Problems at a Frome Supermarket

It’s worth bearing in mind that here at A3 Machines we stock spare parts for current and past models of scrubber dryers from Fimap filters to the Viper Fang Battery Charger range.

If you’re looking for a spare part for a floor cleaning machine therefore it’s always worth giving us a call.

The customer represented the cleaning staff at a busy supermarket in Preston in Lancashire which was awarded City status back in 2002. It was also the birthplace of Sir Richard Arkwright, who invented the spinning frame which came to revolutionise the cotton industry and so has a long industrial heritage. Our client relies on A3 Machines to keep their equipment fully operational, they in turn have a similar contract with their client to keep the supermarket clean so as you can imagine the pressure was on to get this machine working at its optimum as soon as possible.

The machine was the popular Viper Fang 24T which we are very familiar with and carry ...
