Powerful Cleaning Made Simple: Spotlight on the Tennant T7 and Its Brush Attachments

When it comes to conquering grime in large commercial and industrial spaces, a reliable scrubber is worth its weight in gold. Enter the Tennant T7—PowerKleen’s versatile, ride-on floor scrubber that pairs rugged performance with a suite of brush and pad options so you can tailor your clean to any surface. In today’s blog, we’ll dive into why the T7 stands out and how its brush attachments unlock maximum productivity.

Meet the Tennant T7

The Tennant T7 is designed for businesses that demand both power and uptime:

• Ride-On Convenience
  Featuring a compact, ergonomically designed operator station, the T7 lets you zip through 30,000–60,000 sq ft per hour with minimal fatigue.

• Heavy-Duty Construction
  Built on an all-steel chassis with durable composite tanks, this machine holds up to daily use in warehouses, manufacturing plants, big-box retailers, and more.

• Advanced Scrubbing System
  Adjustable down pressure, easy-access tanks, and an intuitive control panel mean you spend less time prepping and more time cleaning.

Brushes & Pads: One Machine, Many Solutions

What really makes the T7 adaptable is its brush and pad assortment. In the image above, you can see:

1. Red Scrubbing Pads

   • Aggressiveness: Medium-duty

   • Use‐Case: Removing light scuffs and soils on finished concrete, vinyl, and tile.

2. White Nylon Bristle Brush

   • Aggressiveness: Heavy-duty

   • Use‐Case: Tackling embedded dirt and grout lines on uneven surfaces and textured concrete.

3. Drive Disk & Pad Retainer

   • Secures pads or brushes to the scrub head—tool-free installation means swift swaps between jobs.

With these attachments, the T7 can transition from the polished floors of a showroom to the gritty environment of a loading dock in minutes.

Why Brush Choice Matters

• Surface Protection
  Selecting the right pad minimizes scratching while still achieving a deep clean.

• Efficiency
  Heavy-duty brushes loosen stubborn dirt so your squeegee and vac system can pick up more in a single pass.

• Custom Cleaning
  Specialty brushes (e.g., soft or flagged bristles) can be added for sensitive floors or finishes.

Maintaining Peak Performance

To keep your T7—and its brushes—running strong:

1. Daily Rinse: Flush brushes and pad decks with clean water after each shift to prevent chemical buildup.

2. Inspect Wear Patterns: Rotate brushes and pads evenly; replace when bristles are frayed or pads no longer lay flat.

3. Filter Care: Clean recovery tank filters weekly to maintain vacuum suction and protect the motor.

4. Scheduled Service: Partner with PowerKleen for preventative maintenance plans to catch wear items before they slow you down.
