When using a floor scrubber in cold weather, you need to pay attention to the following points to ensure that the equipment works properly and avoid malfunctions:

1. **Avoid water freezing:**
Water freezes easily in low temperatures, especially in equipment pipes, pumps or water tanks. It is recommended to empty the water tank in time after use to avoid residual water freezing and causing damage to the equipment. Using warm water instead of cold water can also prevent freezing to a certain extent.

2. **Cleaning agent selection:**
Cold weather may affect the effectiveness of detergents, so it is best to choose detergents suitable for low temperature environments. Some detergents contain antifreeze ingredients that can be better used in low temperatures.

3. **Keep the battery warm (for battery-powered machines):**
Low temperatures can affect battery performance and may cause a drop in power or an inability to charge. It is recommended to charge the battery in a room temperature environment and avoid exposing the device to extremely cold weather for too long.

4. **Preheating the machine:**
In very cold weather, you can let the floor scrubber acclimate in a warm environment for a period of time before use to prevent machine parts from being damaged by sudden low temperatures.

5. **Regular maintenance:**
Pay special attention to equipment maintenance in winter to ensure that filters, nozzles and other key components are not blocked or damaged due to low temperatures. Check the machine's operating status regularly to avoid freezing or wear after long-term use.

6. **Avoid operating on frozen ground:**
Frozen ground is easy to slip, which may cause unstable machine operation or accidents. Be especially careful when operating in a frozen environment.

Ensuring proper use and maintenance can extend the life of the scrubber and improve the efficiency of winter cleaning.
