The Tornado BR 16/3 (catalog 99406) is a corded cylindrical scrubber with a 16-inch brush head and a 1.5 HP motor that turns the brushes at 660 RPM. It cleans 3,200 sq. ft. per hour from dual 3-gallon removable tanks, and a 0.67 HP vacuum recovers solution behind the brush so floors dry within seconds. The cylindrical brushes scrub and sweep small debris in one pass, which makes the BR 16/3 a fit for grouted tile and textured floors in retail, healthcare, food service, and schools. At 67 lbs and 17 inches wide, it runs on continuous corded power without charging breaks.

Who the BR 16/3 Is For
Textured and porous floors are where the cylindrical head pulls ahead of a disc. Quarry tile with deep grout, paver brick, rubber flooring, and non-slip kitchen ceramic all hold soil that a flat pad skims over; the brushes reach into that texture and grout channel. At 15 inches long and 17 inches wide, the machine clears 18-inch doorways and works around display fixtures, hospital bed frames, cafeteria tables, and other close-clearance obstacles. A 71 dB rating keeps it usable during business hours in occupied buildings.
How the Brush Deck and Tanks Work
The 1.5 HP motor spins two cylindrical brushes at 660 RPM, agitating debris up into the roll while the 0.67 HP vacuum lifts water through the rear squeegee. Forward and reverse scrubbing lets the operator clean both directions in a corridor without turning the machine. Swapping in stripping brushes turns the same unit into a finish stripper with no other hardware change.
Two removable 3-gallon tanks lift out on their own for filling and emptying at any sink or floor drain, so there is no trip back to a utility closet between fills.
