New Square Scrub EBG-28 PIVOT w/ Removable Handle
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The EBG-28 PIVOT is Square Scrub's widest oscillating machine, and this version adds the two-piece removable handle. That matters more than it sounds: at 197 lb assembled, the 28 in PIVOT is a big machine to load, and a handle that comes off makes it a shorter, easier piece to get into a van or truck and through the back door of a job. On the floor it is the same EBG-28. The 14 x 28 in pad is about 40 percent larger than the EBG-20/C, a 1.5 hp motor drives it at 3,450 oscillations per minute, and the square pad works in straight lines right up to walls and into corners. With the slotted weights on, Square Scrub rates it for chemical stripping, dry prep of VCT, stone and concrete care, wood sanding and gym floor prep, and with them off it handles tile and grout or LVT cleaning. The pivoting head keeps the base balanced no matter where the handle sits. For mostly small rooms, the EBG-20/C PIVOT is the lighter choice.”

Questions
Square Scrub EBG-28 PIVOT with removable handle: common questions
What jobs is the EBG-28 PIVOT built for?
Square Scrub lists tile and grout cleaning, LVT cleaning, chemical stripping and dry prep of VCT, stone, concrete and terrazzo care, wood floor sanding and prep, and dry prep of gym floors.
How much bigger is it than the EBG-20/C?
The EBG-28 runs a 14 x 28 in pad, about 40 percent larger than the 14 x 20 in pad on the EBG-20/C, so it covers more floor per pass.
Can I take the weights off?
Yes. The slotted weights are removable. Add them for stone polishing or wood sanding, and take them off for other surfaces.
Is there a dust-control version?
Yes. Square Scrub also offers the EBG-28V PIVOT with a HEPA dry vac kit. This page is for the EBG-28 PIVOT with the two-piece removable handle, without the HEPA vac.
What is different about the 2PC version?
It is the standard EBG-28 PIVOT with Square Scrub’s two-piece handle, which removes from the machine to make loading and transport easier. The base, motor and pad are the same.
