Product description

The Ambassador 20 (C8420-115) is Minuteman's large-area self-propelled self-contained carpet extractor: a 20" path, 100 psi pump and huge 25 gal solution / 25 gal recovery tanks turn expansive carpet — hotels, convention space, offices — into a one-person job. A patented pivoting, spring-loaded stainless vac shoe disengages in reverse for a best-in-class 43" turning radius, and the all-electric 75 ft corded design removes batteries entirely. Cold-water (no heater).

  • 20" wide cleaning path turns large carpeted areas into a one-person job
  • Self-propelled, all-electric design — no batteries, 75 ft cord reach
  • Best-in-class 43" turning radius for maneuvering around furniture and columns
  • Patented pivoting, spring-loaded 20" stainless vac shoe that disengages in reverse for powerful, low-effort recovery
  • Huge 25 gal solution / 25 gal recovery tanks minimize fill/dump trips on big floors
  • 100 psi pump with 4 quick-disconnect jets and 2 hp 3-stage vacuum (105" lift)
  • Rotational-molded polyethylene tanks — won't dent, corrode or rust
  • Optional scrub wand, upholstery tool and 14/25 ft hose extend it to edges, stairs and furniture

Receiving — do not sign clean

  1. Count the pieces against the bill of lading before the driver leaves. A machine, its batteries and its accessories can ship as separate items.
  2. Walk the pallet. Check the shrink-wrap, the crate corners and the machine itself — forks go through crates more often than anyone admits.
  3. Photograph any damage before you sign. Once the driver has your signature the photographs are worth much less.
  4. Write the damage on the delivery receipt. A clean signature on a damaged pallet is what makes a freight claim hard. Then call 1-888-287-3732 the same day.
