Compact Wet Scrubbing Power With the Hawk 13" Heavy Duty Deluxe
The Hawk F13-01-DX 13" Heavy Duty Deluxe Floor Machine delivers 1.5 HP dual-capacitor AC power at 175 RPM through triple-planetary 10:1 helical-cut industrial gears. The DX package adds a 4-gallon solution tank, splash guard, chrome motor cover, and premium pad driver — converting a standard buffer into a complete wet scrubbing system in a 13" footprint. The machine draws 5.5 amps, weighs 87 lb, and operates at 66 dB GS42-compliant levels for daytime use in hospitals, schools, and occupied buildings.
DX Package Components and Motor Details
4-gallon solution tank with splash guard — allows continuous wet scrubbing without manual solution application, reducing labor time on large areas
Chrome motor cover and premium pad driver — DX upgrade delivers a complete out-of-the-box wet scrubbing setup versus ordering components separately
1.5 HP, 66-frame dual-capacitor AC motor — 5.5 amp draw sustains 175 RPM under heavy scrubbing loads without thermal shutdown
Triple-planetary 10:1 helical-cut gears — precision gear ratio translates motor torque into reliable pad speed on VCT, tile, and terrazzo
50 ft 12-3 SJT power cord — sufficient reach for cleaning hotel corridors and school hallways without repositioning the power source
Where the 13" Deluxe Fits
The DX package at 13" targets cleaning professionals working in restrooms, elevator lobbies, exam rooms, and any confined space where a 17" or 20" machine cannot turn. Hospitals and healthcare facilities value the 66 dB noise rating for patient-area cleaning during daytime hours. Hotels use this machine in corridors and suites for interim maintenance between deep cleans. The built-in solution tank eliminates the need for a separate pump sprayer, reducing the equipment a cleaner carries into small spaces. Optional handle and weight accessories let operators customize pad pressure for different floor conditions.
UL/CUL Listing and Box Contents
The F13-01-DX is UL/CUL listed and ships with the full DX package: chrome motor, 4-gallon solution tank, splash guard, premium pad driver, chrome steel handle with variable lock, dual steel triggers, thumb safety switch, vinyl foam grips, non-marking ball-bearing wheels, and 50 ft power cord. Pads are not included.
What does the DX package include on the Hawk 13" Deluxe?
The DX (Deluxe) package adds four components to the base machine: a 4-gallon solution tank for continuous wet scrubbing, a splash guard to contain solution spray, a chrome motor cover, and a premium pad driver. These come factory-installed — the machine ships ready for wet scrubbing without additional purchases.
What is the difference between the F13-01-DX and the base F13-01?
The F13-01 is the standard heavy-duty machine with powder-coated finish and no solution tank. The F13-01-DX adds the chrome motor, 4-gallon solution tank, splash guard, and premium pad driver. Both share the same 1.5 HP motor, 175 RPM, 87 lb weight, and 66 dB rating. The DX is the better choice when wet scrubbing is the primary application.
How many square feet can the 13" Deluxe cover per hour?
At 175 RPM with a 13" cleaning path, the F13-01-DX covers approximately 1,500-2,000 sq ft per hour depending on soil conditions and pad selection. The built-in 4-gallon solution tank supports extended scrubbing without refilling for smaller areas.
Is the Hawk 13" Deluxe suitable for hospital use?
Yes. The 66 dB GS42-compliant noise rating makes the F13-01-DX approved for use in occupied patient areas during daytime shifts. The compact 13" size allows cleaning in exam rooms, patient bathrooms, and narrow corridors. Many healthcare facilities use this machine specifically because of the low noise output and DX wet scrubbing capability.
What pad does the F13-01-DX ship with?
The F13-01-DX ships with a premium pad driver but without a floor pad. Pads are selected based on the task: black stripping pad for finish removal, green scrubbing pad for general cleaning, red spray buffing pad, or white polishing pad. The premium pad driver accepts standard 12" round floor pads.
Can I add weights to the Hawk 13" Deluxe for more pad pressure?
Yes. Optional frame weights and horseshoe weights are available as accessories. Adding weight increases pad pressure for removing stubborn buildup or preparing rough concrete surfaces. The 87 lb machine weight already provides significant natural down-pressure for most routine cleaning tasks.
What is the power cord length on the F13-01-DX?
The F13-01-DX includes a 50-foot, 12-3 SJT industrial power cord with a molded plug. This length covers most commercial rooms without repositioning the outlet connection, reducing interruptions during wet scrubbing operations.

Located in the Twin Cities in Minnesota, we acquired our Brio Air Filter in mid-late Spring of this year (2023) when pollen count was high and we were beginning to experience the effects of Poor Air Quality Index as a result of smoke particulates from fires in Canada that caused the air in much of Minnesota to become hazy and simply dirty.
It is so easy to share our experience with the Brio Air Filter given how quickly and efficiently it removed pollen, dust, and smoke particles from the environment inside our home. Two people in our home who suffer from pollen-related allergies during the spring immediately experienced easier breathing and elimination of symptoms within the house. With respect to smoke particulates from Canada drifting into our environment, EVERYONE in our home experienced directly improved breathing and smell of the air when entering from outside.
An additional piece of information to account for is that we have always employed high grade furnace filters in our home’s central HVAC system. With that high grade filtration in place both prior to and after acquiring a Brio home air filter, we all quickly agreed that deploying the Brio in our home made an easily noticeable positive difference in breathing inside our home. Additionally, those of us who clean our home have observed that dust builds up slower on our floors and furniture than before we deployed the Brio unit.
We did note that the Brio is not as quiet as a few other brands/models on the market that we have tried in our home but the efficiency and quality of the filtration, along with the air turnover rate it provides,allows us to locate the Brio unit in central rooms away from the bedrooms. Since we made that change there has been no noise-related effect on our sleep, while the unit maintains the same level of air cleanliness throughout our home.
A last key point to make is how easy the Brio unit is to maintain. The simplicity of the modular construction of the Brio unit makes it very quick and easy to keep the filtration sections clean. We have not yet reached a point of filter replacement but it is obvious to us that the replacement will take a matter of seconds and can be executed by anyone in our home, including our 10-year-old son.
It seems to help reduce my allergy issues. We're glad we bought it. The only problem I had was not seeing any cubic footage recommendations in the online description when purchasing the unit. Bedrooms vary widely in size!!
