More functionality in a small scrubber

A cost-efficient cleaning solution

With dependable cleaning performance and easy-to-use

design, the Advance SC400™ walk-behind automatic

scrubber provides a cost-effective alternative to labor-

intensive mop and bucket or high-priced, larger automatic
scrubbers. Featuring a compact size and 6 gallon solution
and recovery tanks, the SC400 enhances cleaning

productivity in small spaces, such as gas stations, schools
and healthcare facilities.

Maximum productivity

Why scrub for two hours with a mop and bucket when
the same area can be cleaned in 20 minutes with the
SC400? Boasting a center-pivot squeegee system, the

SC400 employs a gas spring for optimal blade pressure

and has superior pick-up performance in both forward

and reverse. Just one pass leaves the floors clean, dry and

ready for foot trafc. Plus, fully variable solution control

settings allow the machine to operate for over one hour

on a single tank of solution.

Simple operation

The SC400 offers simple operation and high

maneuverability, allowing users to operate the machine
with little to no training required. With a touch of a
button, operators can turn on the scrubber and start to

clean. A built-in transport wheel and brush holder enable

easy transport throughout the facility. For enhanced
ease-of-use and operator comfort, the SC400 is equipped
with an ergonomic, adjustable handle.

Sustainable cleaning

Operating at a sound level of only 67 dB A, the SC400 meets
LEED-EB and GS-42 noise standards—allowing for daytime
cleaning or cleaning of noise-sensitive areas. The Smart

Solutions™ setting calibrates the machine’s solution flow,
which enables users to meet green cleaning requirements by

minimizing the use of water and detergent. The SC400 comes

standard with maintenance-free gel batteries, eliminating
safety concerns associated with traditional wet-acid batteries.
