Trusted Clean 20" Heavy Duty Floor Buffer w/ Pad Driver - TPL-20FB-3-PD

Complete tough jobs quickly with this high performance, 1.5 HP Trusted Clean 20" floor buffer. This low speed, 175 RPM floor buffer is equipped with easy-to-use fingertip controls that allow you to have the control needed to safely complete the job in a snap. The high powered 1.5 HP motor and a triple planetary transmission gives you the power and ruggedness to tackle tough jobs like stripping floors or even scrubbing carpet. Given the right floor pad, you can tackle just about any job. The high torque system also allows for smooth start-ups on all hard-floor surfaces.

The Trusted Clean 20" floor buffer is built tough with a chrome-plated steel handle and high strength, corrosion-resistant aluminum frame to give you a solid machine to give you absolute control and increased durability to offer you years of use. Safety is also taken into consideration in this build by incorporating a switch lock mechanism to help prevent accidental startups and the negative pressure trigger bar that shuts the machine off when the operator lets go. The foot-controlled handle lock makes adjustments easy and minimizes avoidable bending over and fatigue. Non-marking wheels and bumper help protect the floor buffer while also protecting fixtures, furniture, and walls around you while buffing.

The floor buffer comes standard with a pad driver to hold any 20" scrubbing, stripping, or polishing pads. If you are looking for a smaller unit, Trusted Clean also offers a 17" floor buffer with many of the same features as this one.
