A floor cover arrangement (5) for covering an underfloor space (3) of a passenger conveyor (1) is proposed. The floor cover arrangement (5) comprises: a multiple number of cover plates (9) configured to be correctly installed such that the cover plates (9) adjoin each other in a sequence along a longitudinal direction (8) of the underfloor space (3) and the cover plates (9) form a walking surface (7) covering the underfloor space (3); a frame (12) comprising at least one frame rail (27) extending underneath the multiplicity of cover plates (9) in the longitudinal direction (8); and a multiple number of connectors (19), each connector (19) being configured for fixedly connecting one of the cover plates (9) with the frame (12). Therein,the cover plates (9), the frame (12) and the connectors (19) are configured such that -each connector (19) cooperates with one frame rail (27) in a form-fitting manner such that the connector (19) is displaceable in the longitudinal direction (8) and is fixed in both directions orthogonal to the longitudinal direction(8), and -each connector (19), when arranged at a fixation location associated to one of the cover plates (9), cooperates with the associated cover plate (9) in a form-fitting manner such that the cover plate (9) is fixed in a direction orthogonal to the walking surface (7). The connectors (19) in the floor cover arrangement (5)reliably fixe the cover plates (9) even against upward directed forces and are easy to be installed and removed.
