The new Advance PBU series propane-powered burnishers are loaded
with performance features to make your floors shine in less time.
The PBU series provides the fastest high-gloss burnishing available. The
Advance PBU 21 has a 21 inch (53 cm) pad size and can burnish up to
25,000 square feet (2,322 m2) per hour, while the PBU 27 model offers
a larger 27 inch (68 cm) pad capable of burnishing up to 33,000 square
feet (3,066 m2) per hour. Simple controls ensure your operators won’t be
slowed down with machine adjustments — just start it and go.
Powerful 603cc Twin-V engines provide the torque to drive the pad at a
high rpm that produces a sparkling shine. A catalytic muffler is standard
on all models. Select models offer a heavy-duty seal on the shroud that
provides the best dust control on the market, a clutch that permits the
pad to only turn when the machine is moving, and CARB Gard™, a device
that shuts off the engine if it detects harmful emission levels.
Easy pad changing, low maintenance and rugged dependability round
out the benefits of choosing the new Advance PBU series of propanepowered burnishers.
