Manual Sweepers
These machines do the job that three or four individuals do with
brooms. This category of equipment is classified as a manual
push sweeper. The brushes in the unit are powered by pulleys
off the back wheels. The main broom throws the debris into a
hopper that is relatively small. These sweepers have no real
dust control systems. No drive motors or vacuum motors. This
keeps the machine light on price and weight. The machine
works best on rough surfaces like concrete or carpet. The sweeping path ranges
from 26’” to 32”. Windsor products include:
• Designed for commercial use
• Battery powered
• Cleans within 1/8 of an inch from the wall
• Easy main and side broom adjustments
• Main broom is driven by metal gears on both wheels
and operates whether the unit is turning right or left
• Side broom fold up for cleaning in dusty
environments
Walk Behind Sweepers
These units range in sweeping path size from 24” to 36”.
These units are available most commonly with battery power,
however some manufacturers offer gas powered machine.
Sweepers utilize a hopper for soil and debris collection, as the
machines increase in size the hopper capacity increases as
well. Some of the machines have drive motors to propel them.
Applications for these units include entrance cleaning and lighter duty outdoor
areas. Warehouses and light manufacturing are also excellent applications.
These units are now being used for both indoor hard and soft floors. Windsor
