New Tornado Brute Force 17" Heavy Duty Floor Machine
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Brute Force 17 in is the kind of floor machine we like to see in a janitor's closet that gets used hard every day. It is a 175 rpm machine with a 1.5 hp motor turning a triple planetary gear set with all steel gears, so it has the torque for scrubbing and stripping as well as daily polishing. The body is Tornado's patented one-piece rotomolded design, which soaks up vibration and torque and keeps the wiring and capacitors fully enclosed. It is also non-conductive, and Tornado says these machines outweigh most metal machines. The 17 in size is handy for smaller rooms, restrooms, hallways and around fixtures where a 20 in machine feels big. The handle is all metal with a positive lock, the machine tilts back for easy pad changes, and the 5 in wheels are non-marking. Add the optional 3 gal solution tank if your crew scrubs or strips. If you are covering bigger rooms, the 20 in version is the same machine with a larger pad.”
