New Powr-Flite Millennium 20 HD Buffers/Burnisher
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“For a cleaning crew or contract cleaner who needs one machine that can do almost everything on a hard floor, a 20 in, 175 rpm swing machine is the classic choice. Powr-Flite says the NM201HD can strip, scrub, sand, scrape and grind hard floors, and with the right brush or bonnet it handles shampooing, encapsulation and bonnet cleaning on carpet too. The 1.5 hp motor drives an all-steel triple planetary gearbox, and the machine weighs 110 lb, heavier than many floor machines its size, so there is plenty of pad pressure for tough stripping work. The patented one-piece rotationally molded housing reduces noise and vibration, and the thumb-activated safety interlock helps prevent accidental start-ups. The wider 20 in pad covers hallways, gyms and open floors faster than a 17 in machine. The pad driver is sold separately, so add a 19 in driver if you don't already have one that fits. If you also want to spray buff, take a look at the dual-speed NM202.”

Questions
Powr-Flite NM201HD: common questions
Is a pad driver included?
No. Powr-Flite sells the pad driver separately because many buyers already have one. Powr-Flite's options for 20 in machines are the 919DP 19 in tufted pad driver or the TL19 19 in economy pad driver.
What size pads and brushes fit?
Powr-Flite recommends a pad the same size as the pad driver or 1 in larger, and a brush 2 in smaller than the machine size. For this 20 in machine, that means 20 to 21 in pads and an 18 in brush.
Can it clean carpet?
Yes. Powr-Flite says it can shampoo, encapsulation clean and bonnet clean carpet with the right brush or bonnet. Powr-Flite suggests a shower-feed brush, such as a nylon shampoo brush, for carpet.
Can it spray buff?
At 175 rpm it can spray buff with a red pad. If spray buffing and dry polishing are a big part of your routine, the dual-speed NM202 adds a 320 rpm speed.
