+1 (978) 295-7538Switch Between Deep Scrubbing and High-Speed Buffing on the Hawk F04-15-01
The Hawk F04-15-01 15" 2-Speed Extra Heavy Duty Floor Machine combines a 1.5 HP DC rectified motor with a toggle-switch dual-speed system: 165 RPM for stripping and deep scrubbing, 300 RPM for spray buffing and restorative polishing. Triple-planetary 11:1 helical-cut XHD gears handle both speeds reliably. The machine draws 8.1-8.5 amps, weighs 91 lb, and operates between 62 dB (low speed) and 69 dB (high speed), meeting GS42 noise compliance at both settings.
DC Rectified Motor and Dual-Speed Mechanism
- 1.5 HP DC rectified 2-speed motor, 66 frame — DC rectification provides smooth torque delivery at both speeds and is more resilient than AC motors under variable load conditions in commercial use
- 165 RPM low speed for XHD scrubbing and stripping — matched to the extra-heavy-duty gear system for removing multiple coats of floor finish or performing aggressive surface prep
- 300 RPM high speed for spray buffing and polishing — faster pad rotation brings floor finish to a higher gloss with less chemical and pad wear than a single-speed buffer requires
- Triple-planetary 11:1 helical-cut XHD gears — the XHD rating means these gears withstand the torque spikes that occur when switching speeds or when the pad encounters edge buildup
- 15" pad driver with 14" pad size — wider cleaning path than the 13" models covers more area per pass, reducing total machine time on large floors
Facilities That Use 2-Speed Machines
Retail stores, distribution centers, and commercial office buildings use 2-speed machines to replace two single-speed units — one for scrubbing and one for buffing. The toggle switch mounted on the motor housing allows the operator to change tasks without stopping: strip at 165 RPM, then switch to 300 RPM to buff the same area without returning the machine to storage. Healthcare facilities use the GS42-compliant 62 dB low-speed setting for stripping during occupied hours without exceeding noise thresholds. The 15" cleaning path at 91 lb is manageable for solo operators while covering significantly more floor than the 13" models.
Compliance and Included Equipment
The F04-15-01 is UL/CUL listed and GS42 compliant at both speeds (62 dB at 165 RPM, 69 dB at 300 RPM). The machine ships with the chrome steel handle, foam grips, dual triggers, thumb safety switch, non-marking wheels, wraparound bumper, and 50 ft 12-3 SJT power cord with molded plug.
