PEDAL WRING MINI-CART Cleaning with microfiber has never been easier. This compact mobile cart carries a full system of microfiber cleaning products in only 3.3 sq. ft. of floor space. The caddy pocket comes equipped with Rubbermaid s award-winning and space efficient Folding Safety Cone. When deployed, it is highly visible with 30% more surface area than other fabric cones. Prominently located on the front-side is Rubbermaid s ergonomic Pedal Wring Bucket and a large caddy for cleaning supplies.

The back-side of the mini-cart is devoted to microfiber pad storage two hanging pins to accommodate clean pads and a moistureresistant collection bag for used or soiled pads.
Bucket Features PEDAL WRING BUCKET This unique, two-part bucket and wringer is designed especially for microfiber flat mops. It s ergonomic no bending or pulling to wring just depress the foot pedal and the pressure plate does the rest. A builtin brake prevents the bucket from moving while wringing. The Pedal Wring Bucket comes equipped with press-fit, nonmarking casters and fits solidly onto a #6173 Janitor Cart. When ready to empty, there are two convenient options. If a floor drain is handy, use the twist valve at back of bucket to empty contents without lifting. When emptying into utility and floor sinks, lift only the plastic bucket from wringer-dolly with an easy tilt. It s lighter to lift, empty and refill.
PRESS WRING BUCKET This lightweight plastic mopping combo is designed for use with microfiber flat mops up to 18 in length. The press sieve provides easy, no-touch removal of cleaning solution from wet pads. To wring, lift mop onto sieve. Holding handle perpendicular to floor, press straight down. Bucket should not move. Use the unique, ribbed washboard surface on front inside wall of bucket to remove dirt and debris from mop pads before wringing. All Press Wring Bucket models come equipped with pressfit, non-marking casters and fit onto the #6173 Janitor Cart. FINISH BUCKET The press sieve is perfect for tamping excess finish from microfiber pads and the handle stay keeps the mop upright and ready to use. The smooth, nonporous bucket cleans easily, reducing time spent stripping traditional bucket and wringer combinations. To save clean-up time, use the plastic air-tight lid to keep remaining floor finish fresh for reuse. Consistent with the traditional blue and white colors associated with finish application, this model of the Press Wring Bucket has been color-coded blue, making it easy to visually identify and prevent costly cleaning mix-ups. For best results a smooth even finish application, use the specially constructed Rubbermaid Q820 Finish Pad.
Bucket Features DISINFECTING BUCKET This all-plastic bucket with water-tight lid is designed especially for patient room cleaning in the healthcare market. It comfortably holds 15 20 microfiber wet pads, generally enough for one housekeeper for one shift. By using one pad per room, the risk of crosscontamination is greatly reduced. Use the moldedin filling guide for measuring cleaning and disinfecting solution one quart for every 5 pads. The molded-in grate keeps pads elevated to prevent over-saturation. Disinfecting Buckets can be stacked or set side-by-side on a #6173 Janitor Cart. After loading pads into bucket and locking the water-tight lid in place, moisten pads by tilting bucket from side to side to the maximum while holding handle. Because microfiber pads are highly absorbent, capillary action will even out liquid distribution within 20 minutes.
