Lavex Pro 20″ Heavy-Duty Single Speed Rotary Floor Machine with Pad Driver, Scrub Brush, and 4 Gallon Solution Tank – 175 RPM

Description

High-traffic supermarket aisles and school corridors accumulate layers of ground-in dirt and scuffed wax finish throughout busy winter shifts. The Lavex Pro 20in Rotary Machine Kit strips floor finish and scrubs tile floors with a four-gallon solution tank. It requires two-hand torque balancing, demanding physical operator control to guide the rotating pad across slippery floors.

Heavy chrome-plated structural steel constructs the handle tube and chassis frame, fitted with a non-marking PVC bumper apron and cast iron motor casing. A commercial triple-planetary gear-motor outputs 1.5 HP, drawing 13.5 full-load amps on standard 115V 60Hz single-phase wall circuits at 175 RPM. Total dry bare machine weight measures 106 lbs with tank. Machine dimensions measure 25 inches wide, 21 inches deep, and 48 inches tall.

Key Features of Lavex LPS20SPRO

Janitorial contractors buy Lavex LPS20SPRO kits to strip wax, scrub grout, and buff vinyl floors. Complete kit pricing delivers a 20-inch machine, pad driver, scrub brush, and a four-gallon solution tank for cleaning fleets.

• Powerful 1.5 HP commercial electric motors spin twenty-inch floor pads at 175 RPM for deep stripping.
• Triple-planetary steel gearboxes transmit high motor torque without drive belt slippage or gear chatter wear.
• Mounted four-gallon polyethylene solution tanks dispense stripper chemical wash directly through the brush center.
• Cast iron motor chassis provide ninety-five pounds of downward pad pressure to cut through multiple wax coats.
• Dual-trigger safety lockout levers prevent accidental motor startup when adjusting handle positions.
• Non-marking five-inch transport wheels roll across thresholds and stairs without marking clean wax finishes.
• Included nylon scrub brushes and pad drivers provide complete multi-surface floor stripping and scrubbing versatility.

Rotary Torque Floor Bench Metrics

Dynamometer bench testing confirms the 1.5 HP motor delivering 45 foot-pounds of starting torque through the triple-planetary gear transmission at 175 RPM. Under heavy black stripping pad friction on commercial vinyl tile, current draw stabilizes at 12.8 running amps on 115V power lines. Downward head pressure measures ninety-five pounds across the twenty-inch pad driver. Planetary gear case temperature rise peaks at 28 degrees Fahrenheit above ambient after two hours of continuous floor stripping. Sound meters record 66 dB at six feet.

Janitorial Usability Realities Maintenance

Balancing this 106 lb rotary machine takes subtle two-hand adjustments on the handle grips, raising the handle to swing right and lowering to swing left. Dispensing chemical wash takes a pull of the tank release lever. Do not buy this 175 RPM machine for high-speed burnishing above 1,000 RPM, wet carpet extraction, or rough outdoor concrete sweeping.

• Rinse chemical stripper residue out of the four-gallon solution tank and feed tubing after each job.
• Remove the pad driver and wipe floor wax sludge off the chrome steel apron each shift.
• Inspect the fifty-foot power cord outer jacket for cut copper exposure every two weeks.
