Cleaning with the BR 47 35 esc is performed with the escalator or travelator running. The machine is positioned at the bottom of the escalator. Special nozzles spray the cleaning solution onto the scrubbing brushes, which then apply it to the treads. (Treads must move away from the machine.) Dirty cleaning solution is vacuumed away gain in the same operation. This is assisted by pick-up brushes which convey the solution to the suction nozzles. The shape of the brush head and the central brush motor allow the brushes to reach and clean the outermost grooves in the tread. A centring skid in the middle of the brush head keeps the machine in alignment during the cleaning process. The BR 47 35 esc is suitable for many different makes of escalators and travelators. Four different sets of combs are available to suit most makes. They engage in the tread grooves to provide a seal between the machine and the treads for efficient pickup.

Woodworker Airo system – a complete package for revitalising and maintaining wooden floor surfaces. The full 1500 Watt motor unit packs almost 50% more power than normally required and this power is transmitted to the floor through our long established 150rpm, oil filled, low load, planetary gearbox. The big advantage of excess power is to provide scope for many additional tasks where the excess power is both advantageous and needed. Crystallization, floor sanding, scarifying, adding 10 kg or 20 kg of extra weight, all of these can be accommodated with this standard machine.

All models are fitted as standard with our generous oversize Hurricane 1500W drive motor allowing for higher speeds and the use of added weight as required. The long life, low load, oil filled planetary gearbox ensures seamless power transmission to the floor ensuring excellent results. With the range of speeds available machines can be selected to cover the whole range of floor care maintenance be it scrubbing, polishing, buffing, burnishing or spray cleaning. A comprehensive range of accessories is available to cover wet applications, carpet shampooing, vacuum polishing and floor sanding. The Hurricane range is available with a selection of kits. • Planetary Gearbox - Longlife, oil filled, low load planetary gearbox. • NuLoc2 Systems - Optional pad interchange systems, quick, simple and secure. • Hi-Cool Motor - 1500W motor allowing for higher speeds and the use of added weight as required. Available in a choice of 4 speeds 150rpm, 230rpm, 300rpm, 450rpm. • ATC (Automatic Torque Control) - Monitoring and balancing power input throughout the cleaning cycle. • Fully Adjustable Handle - Adjustable for the perfect position. • Accessories - A range of accessories available to cover wet applications, carpet shampooing, vacuum polishing and floor sanding.

The TTG6650 cable machine is a genuine workhorse providing a truly cost effective answer to big area low cost floor maintenance. First and foremost the user will find the TTG6650 as easy to use as our smaller machines with the control and operation systems to exactly the same specification, it handles like a dream. Big capacity polyform tanks provide a full 60 litre capacity to match the exceptionally stable 65cm single brush scrubbing head, complemented by an oversized, floating aluminium floor tool. • Polyform Tanks - Heavy duty clean and dirty water tanks. • Structofoam Tilting Brush Deck - Making brush changes quick and simple. • Fully Adjustable Handle - For the perfect working position. • TwinFlo Vacuum Motor - Provides exceptional wet pick-up. • Stainless Chassis - Strong stainless steel chassis.

Mains power and performance and plenty of both, the outstanding specification of the TTG4055 is, without doubt, to the highest standard both in terms of design and equally in terms of performance. The big advantage of cable machines is the amazing power provided by mains operation, three times that of battery machines, and, due to the lack of costly batteries and 24V components, the machines are truly cost effective, almost two for the price of one. Cable machines are used extensively in many industrial applications where floors are quite often rough and exceptionally dirty. • TwinFlo Vacuum Motor - Provides exceptional wet pick-up. • Structofoam Tilting Brush Deck - Making brush changes quick and simple. • Planetary Gearbox - Longlife, oil filled, low load gearbox. • Simple Control - Simple on / off trigger controls. • Polyform Tanks - Heavy duty clean and dirty water tanks. • Flexifill System - Easy filling and emptying system. • Structofoam Chassis - Incredibly tough and chemical resistant Stuctofoam moulded chassis.

There are more and more applications where the floor machine must fulfil two functions literally at the “Flick of a Switch”. The HFT model is fitted with the Hurricane dual motor rated at 1000W/1250W providing optimised power options at the two different operating speeds. For scrubbing you want 150rpm but for polishing 300rpm will give quicker and better results. This is very much the case in hospitals, care homes, hotels, schools, etc where the needs vary quite substantially each day and two separate machines are not always practical or available. The design characteristics for the HFT model echo all the many details of the Hurricane range but with the advantage of two speeds where required. The Hurricane range is available with a selection of kits. • Planetary Gearbox - Longlife, oil filled, low load planetary gearbox. • Dual Speed - Dual speed motor giving speeds of 150rpm for scrubbing and 300rpm for polishing. • ATC (Automatic Torque Control) - Monitoring and balancing power input throughout the cleaning cycle. • Accessories - A range of accessories available to cover wet applications, carpet shampooing, vacuum polishing and floor sanding.

The batteries of our compact ride-on scrubber drier B 150 R are conveniently charged via an external battery charger. The machine is available as a roller or disc head version.

The TwinTec 1840 cable machine has been designed to address the question of size being exceptionally compact, yet with performance equal to bigger machines. The compact design really does allow this machine to clean in areas normally cleaned by hand, yet 30% to 40% faster and better. Although designed for small and congested areas the TTG1840 is equally at home in larger areas and can be used in conjunction with our cable roll, “the cable reel that rolls”, extending the cable length from 20m to 40m without any loss of performance. The style and proportion of the polyform water tanks allow for the machine to adopt a convenient tilt position with only approximately 5 litres in the clean water tank to facilitate single handed brush or pad changing. • Convenient - Fold flat design for easy transport from site to site. • Rugged Construction - Tough all steel chassis design. • Fully Adjustable Handle - For the perfect working position. • Low Noise - Quieter, unobtrusive design means true versatility. • Easy Change - Easy one handed brush or pad changing.

Mains-operated (230 V/50 Hz) and affordable: the scrubber drier with disc technology cleans up to 1700 m²/h. For efficient basic and maintenance cleaning of areas up to 900 m².
