The KM 85/50 R Bp is the new battery powered entry model in the ride-on sweepers category. Its compact design provides an ideal solution for sweeping in confined areas.
The extremely compact design of this machine ensures a high level of manoeuvrability, which also enables it to be used in confined and congested areas. Furthermore, it features impressive area performance in inside and outside areas and is extremely easy to operate. Maintenance work, such as changing the main sweeper roller, can be carried out without tools. The floating roller never has to be readjusted, yet nevertheless removes dirt on uneven floors without leaving any residue. It is also possible to easily access the inside of the machine without tools through a wide-opening cover. The operator can conveniently clean the dust filter from their seat. Thanks to our integrated Home Base system, it is equally as convenient to carry additional cleaning utensils.
