- the invention aims to remedy this situation.
- the invention has for its object to configure the drawbar of a floor cleaning machine so that the control panel, by means of which the floor cleaning machine is operated and controlled by a trailing behind the cleaning machine user, raised or lowered by different sized users by pivoting the drawbar to a desired height can be changed without substantially changing the user's view of the control panel.
- the control panel remains at a constant angle to the user when the height of the control panel is adjusted. This allows different sized people an equally good view (same angle on the control panel). As the angle of attack of the operating console is also set to optimum ergonomics (hand and arm position), the good ergonomics in the height adjustment is retained.
- the operator can adjust the optimal, ergonomic working position in just a few seconds by simply adjusting the drawbar position. He also always has a good overview of the user interface with the information on the operating state of the machine.

- An optimal range for the angle of attack of the control panel is between 36 ° and 42 °.
- the drawbar is considered in the pivoting plane can be raised so far until the first arm is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
- the drawbar can thus be brought into a position relative to the cleaning device, so that the floor cleaning machine requires a minimum storage space for their storage. Also, this results in cleaning a good maneuverability in confined spaces.
- a vertical axis runs in the pivoting plane orthogonal to the first axis of rotation and to the longitudinal axis and the drawbar can be lowered until the first arm engages with the vertical axis at an angle ⁇ of at most 90 °, preferably of at most 60 °.
- the pivot angle ⁇ for the drawbar results in a height adjustment of the control panel, whereby a particularly ergonomic operation of the floor cleaning machine for users of different sizes and stature can be achieved.
- An optimal range for the pivot angle of the drawbar is between 20 ° and 60 °.
- the second arm is curved or cranked with the second arm extending substantially midway between the second and fourth axes of rotation closer to the first arm.
- the curvature results in a recess against the cleaning device, so that the drawbar can be raised without great distance to the cleaning device in the vertical direction.
- control console includes a mounting tab, and the third and fourth pivot axes are disposed on this mounting tab.
- fastening tab or the drawbar comprises an adjustment mechanism which allows adjustment of the angle ⁇ between the control console and the longitudinal axis.
- the adjustment mechanism may include, by way of example and not limitation, a locking screw, a clamping system, adjustment latches, or a dental system.
