Scrubbing or shampoo brush on rotary agitation
« on: January 05, 2016, 11:29:10 am »
Hi guys, not too sure if ive made a cockup.

I have a 15" 200rpm rotary, and i just bought a hard scrubbing brush for it instead of a shampooing brush.

Its to be used for agitation on mainly domestics.  Should i have bought a shampooing head attachment or will this be ok?

Yes you should have....send it back to swap if unused.
Impossible done straight away, miracles can take a little longer.

No you need the scrubbing brush to use the rotary  for agitation, the shampoo brush is too soft.

 as long as it's  carpet scrubbing brush not a  stiff hard floor brush.
 
Might need breaking in on a concrete floor (or your driveway)
