Keeping your LAVOR SCL-50B Free Evo scrubber in peak working condition not only extends its lifespan — it also keeps your floors cleaner, safer, and more hygienic. With regular daily and weekly maintenance, you’ll avoid costly downtime and ensure reliable performance day in and day out.

Why Maintenance Matters

Daily use of floor scrubbers exposes them to dirt, chemicals, and debris. Without proper care, these residues can damage internal components, reduce cleaning efficiency, and shorten the machine’s life. Good maintenance also protects your investment and helps save on repair costs over time.

Daily Maintenance Checklist

Performing these quick tasks every day will keep your scrubber running smoothly:

1. Clean the Recovery Tank

Empty the recovery tank after every use.
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water to remove dirt and debris.
Wipe down the interior to prevent build-up and odours.

2. Clean Motor Filters & Chemical Tank Filter

Remove and inspect the motor filters.
Rinse gently and allow to dry before reinstalling.
Clean the chemical tank filter to prevent blockages.

3. Inspect and Clean the Squeegee Blades

Remove any debris from the squeegee blades.
Wipe them clean to ensure effective water pickup.

4. Remove & Clean the Recovery Tank Hose

Detach the hose and flush with clean water.
Remove any build-up that could restrict suction.

Weekly Maintenance Checklist

Once a week, give your machine a deeper clean and inspection:

1. Deep Clean the Recovery Tank

Remove and rinse any removable parts.
Use fresh water to flush out any residue.

2. Clean and Flip the Squeegee Bar

Remove the squeegee assembly.
Clean the blades thoroughly.
Flip the squeegee rubbers to extend their life and ensure even wear.

3. Remove & Clean the Float Valve

The float valve helps protect the vacuum motor from over-water intake.
Remove, rinse, and re-install to ensure reliable operation.

4. Check Battery Voltage, Levels & Top Up

Inspect battery water levels (if applicable) and top up with distilled water as needed.
Check the voltage using a multimeter to ensure healthy battery performance.

5. Check Charger Settings

If the batteries have been recently replaced or serviced, verify the charger settings are correct for your battery type.

6. Check the Dash Circuit Board Settings if the batteries are replaced

Set the board to correct setting - Wet lead acid or Gel/AGM
