Follows the floor and hugs the walls

JohnsonDiversey says its latest scrubber-drier, the TASKI swingo XP, increases productivity by up to 30% while reducing environmental impact Acccording to JohnsonDiversey, the latest addition to the award-winning TASKI swingo range, XP sets new benchmarks for productivity and cost-efficiency, with customers who have tested it confirming they have achieved substantial time savings and excellent cleaning results.

The TASKI swingo XP features two brand new, patented solutions for improved scrubbing and drying and less drain on natural resources.

The environmentally-friendly v-shaped micro-rotating TASKI contour scrubbing unit provides consistent peak-performance. It combines the advantages of conventional roller and disc brushes to provide a proven 50% reduction in water consumption, and a 30% reduction in energy consumption, versus conventional scrubber driers. Used with the correct TASKI brush/pad, it can cover over 4000 m2 in just one tank fill, with the multi-directional scrubbing action resulting in remarkable soil removal.

The w-shaped TASKI contour squeegee's three castor wheel concept allows the squeegee to precisely follow the floor profile (whatever the floor type, even on structured, tiled/grouted surfaces) for total dryness, even at high working speeds. This allows the machine to be used at any time of the day, while still reducing the potential risk of associated slip fall accidents. Automatic adjustment for different floor types makes manual adjustment a thing of the past and direct suction enables the easy pick up of smaller debris such as cigarette butts.

TASKI swingo XP's 'stand-on' technology marries the speed of a ride-on scrubber drier with the manoeuvrability of a walk-behind for faster cleaning. The ergonomic standing position on a large pedalfree platform affords the operator complete 360-degree visibility. Simple, intuitive controls utilise one single button to start all cleaning functions. Similarly, all driving functions - steering, acceleration and breaking are activated by the handle, with the model's eco function giving extra silent operation.

Maintenance is equally straightforward, with colour-coded yellow points for easy operator training and a user-friendly 'click'mechanism to remove brushes and squeegee. A compact range of cleaning tools and accessories is available for pre-sweeping and other manual tasks.

Importantly, JohsonDiversey claims the TASKI swingo XP has the smallest footprint of all medium to large scrubber driers on the market. Its Sensor Steering System results in high levels of manoeuvrability and agility, making the machine adept at takling congested areas, cleaning along walls or around columns.
