Numatic HFM1523-R Hurricane Rotary Floor Machine (230rpm) Medium Speed (240v)

What is a Medium speed floor machine?

A medium speed rotary floor cleaner is ideal for those that need a multipurpose machine instead of a dedicated scrubber or polisher. Slower machines are generally better suited to scrubbing only duties where higher speed machines are only very good at polishing; having a medium speed machine makes this machine ideal for both applications.

What accessories do you recommend to use with the HFM1523?

What accessories you require really depends on the cleaning requirements at your property and the types of flooring that you have. We generally recommend that you have a demo (see below) to ensure that you are getting the right accessories with your machine.

As a general rule though the following applies when choosing between brushes and drive boards;

• If you have smooth flooring – Then we would recommend buying a drive board and pads with your machine, this will allow you to alter how aggressive the cleaning pads being used are tailoring it to the application at hand.
• If you have uneven surfaces – then a brush such as the polyScrub will be better suited as the bristles are able to penetrate into crevices and deal with uneven surfaces easier.

The tank and SprayTec kit are optional extras that make using the machine easier and are not essentially required unless working in hot environments where water put down may evaporate before it can be scrubbed. Both these systems dispense cleaning solution onto the brush or pad improving the cleaning action, the alternative to this is to mop the floor with cleaning solution first then scrub or polish.
