20" Walk-Behind Auto Scrubber TBL 1620/100T with Traction Drive - Lithium Phosphate - 16 GAL
20" TBL 1620/100T Traction Drive Scrubber - Item #K-916865-C2B
The Nacecare 20" TBL 1620/100T Traction Drive Scrubber is a premium floor care solution designed for facilities that require long runtimes, reduced operator strain, and maximum cleaning power. This upgraded model builds upon the proven reliability of the TBL 1620/50T by incorporating a dual-battery configuration, featuring two NX1K lithium phosphate batteries. With twice the runtime of the single-battery version, operators can clean expansive floor areas with minimal downtime, making this scrubber ideal for high-traffic and large-scale environments.
The traction drive system significantly enhances operator comfort, allowing the machine to propel itself forward at a steady pace. This reduces manual pushing, improving efficiency during extended shifts. Combined with a 20-inch scrubbing path and a generous 16-gallon solution tank, the TBL 1620/100T delivers professional-grade results while streamlining workflows. From warehouses and industrial facilities to airports and healthcare centers, this scrubber is engineered for demanding applications where nonstop cleaning is essential.
Key Benefits
- Dual-battery runtime: Two NX1K lithium phosphate batteries provide extended operation, reducing downtime for charging.
- Traction drive system: Assists operators by propelling the scrubber forward, minimizing physical strain and increasing productivity.
- On-board charger: Offers flexibility to recharge batteries directly within the unit, eliminating the need for separate charging stations.
- 20-inch scrubbing path: Wide coverage allows operators to clean more floor space in less time.
- 16-gallon solution tank: Large capacity reduces refill interruptions, enabling continuous cleaning over extended routes.
Why It Matters
Large facilities often face the challenge of keeping floors clean during business hours while minimizing disruption. The TBL 1620/100T addresses this with a combination of dual-battery endurance and traction-assisted operation. With double the runtime of single-battery models, operators can complete entire cleaning shifts without interruptions for recharging. The traction drive reduces physical effort, making it easier for staff to manage the machine across expansive or high-traffic areas. By improving efficiency and reducing operator fatigue, the scrubber enhances both productivity and workplace safety.
Applications
- Airports and Terminals: Handles large, open spaces with high traffic where uninterrupted cleaning is vital.
- Healthcare Facilities: Quiet, cordless, and efficient—ideal for day cleaning without disturbing patients or staff.
- Industrial Warehouses: Dual-battery power ensures consistent performance across heavy-duty cleaning sessions.
- Educational Campuses: Manages daily maintenance across classrooms, hallways, and recreational facilities.
- Hospitality Venues: Maintains spotless floors in lobbies, banquet halls, and public spaces during peak hours.
Installation & Setup
Setting up the TBL 1620/100T is simple. Begin by fully charging both NX1K lithium phosphate batteries using the on-board charger. Insert the batteries into their designated slots, ensuring a secure connection. Next, attach the pad driver and select the appropriate pad for your flooring surface. Fill the 16-gallon solution tank with the recommended cleaning solution. Before beginning a full shift, run a short test cycle to verify traction drive operation, pad engagement, and squeegee performance.
Operator Comfort & Usability
This dual-battery traction scrubber is built with the operator in mind. The traction drive system takes over much of the physical effort, allowing staff to guide rather than push the machine. Ergonomic handles and intuitive controls make it easy to operate, even for new team members. The cordless design eliminates trip hazards, making it safer in crowded areas. With extended runtime from the dual batteries, operators can work longer without interruptions, ensuring tasks are completed on schedule.
Maintenance Best Practices
To maintain peak performance, empty and rinse both the solution and recovery tanks daily to prevent residue buildup. Inspect the pad driver, pads, and squeegees regularly, replacing worn components to maintain optimal cleaning results. The NX1K lithium phosphate batteries should be rotated and charged after each shift, using the on-board charger for convenience. Store the scrubber in a clean, dry environment and follow manufacturer-recommended preventive maintenance schedules to extend the life of the machine.
Pro Tips
For nonstop cleaning, keep one battery charging while the other is in use, ensuring constant availability. Choose pads carefully to match your floor type—gentle pads for polished surfaces and abrasive pads for tougher grime. Leverage the traction drive system to maintain steady cleaning speed across large spaces, maximizing coverage without exhausting operators. Regularly review usage logs and maintenance checks to proactively identify and address potential wear issues before they affect performance.
FAQ
