Floor Care Machines

Tennant introduces the R3 carpet cleaner with ReadySpace Technology, the Tennant T1 cylindrical scrubber, and the E5 Carpet extractor, a platform-based family of compact, maneuverable, cord-electric floor care machines designed specifically to quickly and effectively clean small, congested spaces. The R3 offers ReadySpace Technology that helps eliminate extended dry times so clean carpet can be put back into service more quickly -- often in less than 30 minutes. The low-profile T1 walk-behind automatic scrubber provides automated cleaning and feature easily cleaned and sanitized Hygenic tanks. The low-profile E5 carpet extractor includes dual overlapping spray jets, an automatic float-adjust brush to accommodate different carpet piles, and superior vacuum suction to maximize cleaning performance when removing embedded dirt or recurring spots and stains.

RTX100 Trencher

Vermeer introduces the RTX100 pedestrian trencher with an easy-to-use intuitive steering system and interchangeable tracks and tires for the landscape, utility and rental markets. The industry-exclusive VZ Steer system allows the operator to simply move the handlebars in the direction the operator wants to move, and the machine responds. When moving, the input and pace of the operator moving the handlebar will control the angle and sharpness of the turn, allowing the operator to maneuver in and around confined spaces and around obstacles where other machines cannot. The RTX100 also features interchangeable tires and tracks, which allow the machine to be configured for maximum productivity in varying ground conditions. The unit is powered by either a 13-hp Honda GX390 or 15-hp Kohler CH15 gas engine. Unit has the ability to trench up to 36 inches in depth and 4 to 6 inches in width.
