Cleans 50% faster than conventional mopping and 20% faster than equal size
scrubber dryers proven by cleaning rates of up to 1300 m2per hour.
CLEANER:
Powerful twin counter-rotating 500 RPM brushes for soil removal proven by
ATP test data, reflecting up to 90% cleaner surfaces.
GREENER:
Takes advantage of every bit of chemical and every drop of water, which is proof
that it reduces environmental impact by over 75%. On average the i-mop®Lite
uses 20% less energy per m2 compared to a typical scrubber dryer.
SAFER:
Cleans and dries floors almost instantly - proven by standardized slip test readings
of 120 or less - significantly reducing slip and fall hazards. The antibacterial tanks
on the i-mop reduces the odors coming from the recovery tank and protects
operators who handle the tank every day. Bacterial reduction in contact with the
tank wall has been certified and tested at ≥99.99% efficacy.

Preface
Thank you for choosing the imop®Lite, the auto scrubber that cleans faster, cleaner, safer,
greener, and is better for everyone. The imop Lite's compact design allows you to clean right
to the edge and under obstacles, minimizing manual scrubbing. The battery operated imop
Lite is equipped with two counter-rotating brushes that provide a deep scrub and a great
cleaning result. The imop Lite significantly reduces the amount of water and chemicals
needed which leads to a greener result. It also reduces the risk of slippery floors.
Antibacterial tanks
The tanks on the imop use an antibacterial mix-in to make the plastic safer both inside and
outside. Because it is mixed into the plastic, the effect will last the lifetime of the tank. The
reduction of bacteria reduces the odours coming from the recovery tank and protects
operators who handle the tank every day. Bacterial reduction in contact with the tank wall has
been certified and tested at ≥99.99% efficacy.

1. Introduction
The imop®Lite is a safe, user-friendly machine. This manual helps you to get started and
explains the operation and maintenance procedure. You will be pleasantly surprised by the
fast and effective use of the battery operated imop Lite. The batteries must be fully charged
before use. Please see the user manual of the class I battery charger for correct procedure.
This manual is intended for those who work with the imop Lite and/or perform daily
maintenance. The manual must be read fully before the first actions. This manual describes
the correct method of use, safety measures, maintenance and transport.
The manufacturer continuously improves all their products based on user experience and
feedback. Any deviations between the texts and/or images from the manual and your
imop Lite can therefore arise from the difference in model or from possible changes due to
continuous development and innovation.
1.1. Intended use of the product
The imop Lite is a specialized machine for
scrubbing floor surfaces. You can use any type
of water
-based scrubbing detergent.
The fluid tank, brushes and squeegee come in
HACCP color coded versions (blue, green, red,
yellow and orange). All three items
can be
easily replaced. This allows you to use
different cleaning solutions,
— for instance,
when you move from the food preparin
g area
to the restaurant.
Make sure that the color
code for the fluid tank, brush and squeegee
ALWAYS
match each other.

cleaning solutions.
•DO NOT use water that exceeds 113°F / 45°C. Using water warmer than this temperature
will void the tank warranty.
•DO NOT use cleaning solutions with a pH level below 3 or above 11 in order to prevent
damage to sensitive components.
•DO NOT use the imop Lite outdoors or on uneven surfaces.
•DO NOT operate this imop Lite over electrical floor outlets in order to avoid electrical
shock.
