i-mop XL Upgrade from brushes to MelaminPlusPad

The i-mop XL is always delivered with brushes. To make the cleaning result more efficient, especially when used on porcelain stoneware, it is recommended to use MelaminePlusPads.

For this purpose, a “Round driving pad kit complete (2 pieces) with bristle ring” must be purchased from the i-mop dealer. The melaminePlusPads 203 mm 8 inches are suitable in diameter and pad height for the i-mop XL and can be purchased from the haid-tec Online Shop in packs of 2.

Converting the i-Mop XL from brush to MelaminPlusPads is very easy.

First, the brushes are removed. The black, round brush discs are jerked in the direction of travel. This releases the brush plate from the drive holder.

The second brush plate is also moved jerkily in the direction of travel and thus also detaches from the drive bracket of the i-mop XL.

The i-mop XL drive plates with bristle rings are supplied with spacer rings. These spacer rings are inserted into the centre of the drive plate and are held in place by Velcro. With the 1 cm high intermediate rings, the user of the machine can use pad variants of different heights. The MelaminPlusPad 203 mm 8 inch with approx. 23mm pad height can be used with or without spacer rings. It is only advisable to use the spacer rings when the MelaminPlusPads wear out due to use and lose height at a remaining pad height of approx. 1 cm.

The MelaminPlusPads hold both to the intermediate rings and – when used without intermediate rings – directly to the traction plates by means of Velcro forces.
