CLEANING the workshop or garage floor is a task usually assigned to some hapless apprentice who seldom makes a good job of it.
Now better and speedier floor cleaning for the transport industry is claimed for a new style of 432 power scrubber from Tennant Maintenance Systems, which now has an adjustable scrubber head and dual guage that precisely monitors brush pressures. These, it's said, eliminate excess brush wear and give more efficient cleaning, lowering the number of passes necessary.
Time is also saved by a new squeegee lift, which acts automatically as the machine is reversed, and by a re-styled tank and drain hose design that facilitates machine flushing and resists clogging.
The 36-volt battery-powered machine has electrical components, which will lower maintenance costs.
The latest 432, featuring a 81cm (32in) path, will clean up to 2,787sqm (30,000sqft) per hour. It has its predecessor's features, such as dual brush speeds and brush pressures variable from 29 to 70kg (65 to 155Ibs) and "fast change" brush mounting.
