Do You Know How to Install Automatic Car Wash Brushes?

I. Preparation

Before replacing the foam brush on an automatic car wash, prepare the following tools: wrenches, screwdrivers, ladders, etc. Also, ensure the power to the unattended car wash is turned off for safety.

II. Removing the Old Foam Brush

1. First, locate the position where the brush needs replacing. Move the car wash machine to a suitable operating area (e.g., outdoors).

2. Use wrenches or screwdrivers to remove the screws and clips securing the old brush. Detach the old brush from its bracket.

3. Clean dust and debris from between the bracket and the old foam brush. Inspect the bracket for damage or deformation; repair or replace if necessary.

III. Installing the New Car Wash Brush

1. Check that the new car wash brush matches the original in size and model, ensuring it can be installed on the bracket.

2. Align the new car wash brush with the bracket. Install the securing screws and clips following the same method as the old brush.

3. After installing the new brush, perform a test to see if it rotates and functions normally.

4. If everything is normal, start the unattended car wash machine. Conduct a test wash to check if the new brush operates correctly.

Precautions and Maintenance Recommendations:

  1. Always turn off the power to the unattended car wash before replacing brushes to ensure safety.
  2. Before installing a new brush, carefully verify that its size and model match the original to avoid installation issues.
  3. Regularly inspect the brushes of the automatic car wash. Replace damaged or severely worn brushes promptly to avoid affecting normal operation.
  4. Other parts of the unattended car wash, such as water pipes, electrical wires, and water pumps, also require frequent inspection and maintenance to ensure normal operation and longevity.
  5. During maintenance and replacement, always follow the operation manual or guidance from professionals to prevent damage or injury due to improper operation.

Conclusion 

Replacing the foam brush on an automatic car wash may seem simple, but practical operation requires attention to safety details and techniques. Therefore, staff should ideally undergo thorough learning and training before operating. Through correct maintenance and replacement, the service life and working efficiency of the unattended car wash can be extended, improving customer satisfaction.
