$3,631.00      
17" High Torque Floor Machine - Includes:

• (1) 16-5/8" Diamond Driver Plate, includes:
  • Tooling slots (12):
    • (6) 3" round for diamond resin / semi-metal pads
    • (6) trapezoid diamonds
  • Plate weight:  39 lbs.
• (4) 20 lb. weight plates
• Built-in dust control
• 50' x 12/3 x 2-pc locking cord
• 1.5" HP TEFC 115/230v 60 Hz Motors.

Description:

• Power:

  • Dual Voltage:  120 or 240 volt, easy to switch - 7.9 maximum amp draw @ 120 volt

  • Motor:  TEFC (totally enclosed fan cool) - motor is protected from dust, debris and slurry

• Gears:  11:1 Gear Ratio, Triple X-HD, Helical-Cut Industrial Gears.  Produces high torque to drive scrapers & metal diamonds with minimal amp draw

• Floating Head:  ensures the tooling grinds and scrapes flat and fast, follows the floor’s contour, prevents dig and ring marks

• Dust Control:  360° Internal Pick-Up - collects airborne dust and debris in the brush cover and directs it upwards to the 2" vacuum port.

• Foot Operated Tilt Back for Easy Transporting

• Dual steel operating triggers with negative pressure on/off switch

• Disassembles for easy handling down stairs

• 2" x 8" non-marking load bearing, ball bearing wheels

• Thumb-operated safety switch with comfort cushion grips

• Includes removal weights with (4) 20 lb plates and locking pins
  
  
• Wheels-Down Machine - productivity improves 100% vs. using a wheels-up / swing machine (right.)  With a wheels-up / swing machine you are constantly fighting against its swinging movement especially during high torque grinding and coating removal projects.  Additionally, there’s a long learning curve and the worker's muscles are used to master its use and control.
  
  FACT:  For concrete grinding and coating removal, high torque is required.  With a wheels-down machine, unskilled workers can become experts within minutes and worker fatigue is reduced 120%.
  
  
• PORTABLE - EASY TO TRANSPORT:  One man handling through doorways, down stairs, across rough terrain.

$3,798.00      
20" High Torque Floor Machine - Includes:

• (1) 19-5/8" Diamond Driver Plate, includes:
  • Tooling slots (12):
    • (6) 3" round for diamond resin / semi-metal pads
    • (6) trapezoid diamonds
  • Plate weight:  39 lbs.
• (4) 20 lb. weight plates
• Built-in dust control
• 50' x 12/3 x 2-pc locking cord
• 1.5" HP TEFC 115/230v 60 Hz Motors.

Diamond Driver Plate - included with both models, 17" and 20":

• Plate equipped with NP9200 Clutch Plate - easy attachment to the grinder's 3-tab driver
• Plates accepts a complete assortment of diamond tools to scrape, grind, scarify, remove coating, polish, restore - concrete, granite, marble.

Specifications

Additional Features:

1. DIAMOND DRIVERS - counter-rotating for ergonomically balance, ease-of-use and minimal learning curve.
2. HIGH-TORQUE MOTORS - 1.5 HP TEFC AC motors (totally enclosed fan cooled) - motors are protected from dust and slurry.
3. STEEL COUPLER - DIRECT DRIVE (vs. belt-drive):  plows through the thickest coatings and hardest concrete without blowing breakers or breaking the coupler and no belts to break.
   • Direct-Drive:  Industrial grade metal drive shaft, direct connection from the motor to the drive plate, produces far superior torque while only draws 14.9 amps
   • Belts & Pulleys:  design is used in planetary grinders to increase RPM speed which is great for polishing with resin pads.  Torque, however, is greatly diminished and torque is what is used to grind concrete and remove coatings.
4. FLOATING HEAD - unique design provides 100% contact with the floor.  The heads flex by moving move up and down to the contour of the floor, self-adjusting to prevent scalps on bumps and provide a more consist, uniform finish. 
5. WHEELS DOWN - machines steer in a forward and backward movement unlike the side-to-side movement of a swing machine which is hard to control ~ requires a long learning curve, often taking days to master. 
6. 360° DUST COLLECTION - dust collection system is built into the head cover ~ will not disappoint. 

Diamond Driver Plate
Plate accepts a complete assortment of tooling (shown below) for grinding, coating removal, polishing, and to scarify.

100% USA Manufacturing CNC Precision Made		Included insert blanks for recessed slots not being used.	Plate accepts Metal Diamonds, PCD's, Resin Pads, Carbide Scrapers.

PLATE FEATURES:

• 3/8" steel plate, powder-coated for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning

• Damping isolators built-in to reduce vibrations and provide flex over high points and lippage

• 3" round diamonds and standard size trapezoid tools are held securely in place by milled recesses and industrial magnets - tools are easy to change

• Plate includes steel blanks, round and trapezoid, that fit in the unused recesses to prevent the unused openings from filling with debris

• Equipped with metal 3-keyway clutch plate that fits the NP9200 clutch plate which is the industry standard for rotary grinders and buffers.  The clutch system prevents bodily injury and damage to the plate and grinder.
