Random Orbital Drive provides incredibly easy-to-use finger-tip control. It’s as effective as a professional floor machine, but much easier to maneuver. Use it to sand, refinish, strip, scrub, wax, and polish a variety of hard floor surfaces. It will make your carpets, ceramic tile, marble, terrazzo and hardwood floors look new. The Oreck Orbiter ® Ultra Multi-Purpose Floor Machine can maintain any floor surface-just change the cleaning brush or pad. Training coursesteach you so much BUT they don't teach you how to become master of what you do/ use as that bit's down to you & you alone.Rediscover the hidden beauty of your carpets & bare floors. Surround yourself with good equipment, understand it & all it can do & practise. Now if you want that kind of friction grinding & graunching into a carpet with a tan or orange pad then great, I know it can be done but it's certainly not as safe as using the standard black brush as your risk of pilling or distorting the pile has grown a lot. The Oreck is different it is an OP (Oscellating Pad) machine, so while the centre disc spins at only about 80rpm's the outside edge as it moves gently up & down in an oval motion is spinning at around 1400rpm's!!! Yes it will feel as though it is gliding to a degree, this is normal whilst still acheiving the desired result, but it's no pile lifter! Personally, the black brush is great for medium/heavy carpet agitation, it just takes longer to acheive a great scrub when compared to a full on rotary or CRB machine. ![]() Yes there is some rubbish out there plastic wands, chinese machines etc that simply scream RUBBISH!! however you don't tend to find the few good suppliers selling them.Īmerica still leads the way with much of what we use (hardware), many have tried to copy but few stand the test of time. Now is that poor equipment or an operator who's taken his eye off the ball or one who's blaming his poor results on his tools? It can take a skilled operator days or even weeks to get to grips with a new piece of equipment until he's finally satisfied that he has learned the desired skills to operate it to the best of its abilities.Ī craftsman rarely buys rubbish, but if he's not careful or goes in gun ho then his equipment will not perform well or to the best of its ability. We have a greater understanding of what we do, how what we do affects the immediate environment, the carpet & sub-floor, the inhabitants & many more.Ĭlients are expecting more nay demanding more of us, so what we know & what we use & how we use it becomes even more so important. For some textile cleaning has become an art form, a craft whereby the operator is now skilled & often qualified in what he or she does. Now we have more sophisticated tools & a lot more of them. However, all the kit was so simple to use & it took a new boy just a few days to know how to use it properly (with the aid of an employer), as for vans.all your kit could fit in the back of a Escort van & you'd still have room! Over night drying was normal, leaving half the soil behind was considered ok & as for air movers.well in some cases you could have blown harder than them!! Chemicals were agitated with a hand brush & then rinsed out using a wand that'd knock you off balance if you stumbled due to their incredible weight!! ![]() ![]() In the old days it was so much more simple! We had bricks for extraction machines, they put out a lot of water & sucked up about half of it. Tis a very steep learning curve that you are on & one that will never let you see its end. ![]()
