New Tornado BD 28/27 Ride-On Automatic Scrubber
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The BD 28/27 is the compact rider we suggest when a facility has been scrubbing big areas with walk-behinds and wants to get the job done faster without buying a large machine. It is under 30 in wide, so it goes places bigger riders cannot, and the operator sits the whole shift. The disk deck covers a 27.5 in path with up to 132 lb of pressure, and the 27 gal solution and 27 gal recovery tanks keep it moving. Tornado rates it at 35,508 sq ft per hour. Automatic mode starts everything with one switch, and the squeegee pulls up on its own when the operator backs up, which saves blades. The parabolic squeegee changes in 10 seconds or less, and the Silent Supervisor panel shows run time and battery charge. At 69 dB it is quiet enough for daytime work in schools, stores and hospitals. This package comes with lead acid batteries, which you reach by lifting the seat. If you have textured floors like quarry tile, look at the BR 28/27 cylindrical version too.”
A compact disk rider for supermarkets, schools and warehouses
The Tornado BD 28/27 (Tornado number TS560-W28-U) is a ride-on automatic scrubber with a compact, low-profile body. Tornado built it for areas where walk-behind scrubbers were used before: supermarkets, schools, health care, retail, warehouses and more.
