General Equipment Rip-R Series 115V 60Hz 2.3 kW Corded Floor Covering Stripper

Description

Scraping thick urethane sports floors and glued vinyl in freezing warehouse conditions demands the General Equipment Rip-R Stripper. A 2.3-kilowatt electric motor drives direct-action oscillating blades to shear stubborn floor coverings. It strips flooring fast but requires dedicated 115-volt circuits. Dual hand grips feature integrated vibration isolation mounts to reduce operator hand fatigue.

Heavy 10-gauge structural plate steel forms the central chassis frame, blade carrier, and adjustable handle uprights. A 2.3-kilowatt electric motor draws 15 amps at 115 volts through an industrial grounded plug. Sealed ball bearings convert motor power into high-speed reciprocating blade strokes. The unboxed tool weighs 149 lbs, measuring 28 inches long, 14 inches wide, and 42 inches high.

Key Features of General Equipment FCS10GEN2

Demolition contractors buy General Equipment FCS10GEN2 strippers to peel glued rubber flooring and sports court surfaces. Commercial corded floor stripper pricing delivers reliable mechanical scraping performance on tough commercial remodeling contracts.

• Two point three kilowatt electric motor provides high reciprocating torque to shear stubborn floor adhesives.
• Ten-inch oscillating blade stroke slices commercial carpet, rubber tile, and vinyl composition tile.
• Vibration-isolated handle grips absorb mechanical recoil to reduce operator hand and arm fatigue.
• Heavy 149-lb steel chassis delivers down-force to keep the scraping blade flat against concrete slabs.
• Multi-position handle adjusts to operator height to minimize back strain during long stripping shifts.
• Pinch-blade clamping system holds standard steel scraper blades tight under heavy forward thrust.
• Non-marking transport wheels roll over broken debris without puncturing or binding on scrap.
• Compact 14-inch machine width fits through narrow commercial doorways and passenger elevators.

Reciprocating Stroke Adhesive Drag Tests

Bench testing under full load on commercial vinyl tile shows the blade carrier holds 1850 strokes per minute without motor stall. Running current stabilizes at 14.2 amps on 115-volt circuits during continuous adhesive scraping runs. Eccentric drive bearing temperatures level off at 138 degrees Fahrenheit after three hours of demolition work. Blade clamps withstand 350 lbs of shear force.

Breaker Amperage Extension Warnings

Operating this 149-lb floor scraper requires firm two-hand grip pressure to counter blade vibration on uneven concrete slabs. Do not buy this 115-volt machine to run on long light-gauge extension cords that drop line voltage. Running on cords under 12-gauge will trip jobsite circuit breakers. Clear floor anchor studs before scraping.

• Inspect blade clamping bolts for tightness before every floor stripping shift.
• Grease eccentric drive bearings every twenty-five operating hours using synthetic wheel bearing grease.
• Blow fine dust out of the electric motor cooling vents after every work shift.
