Product description
The BOSS is Mercury's modular floor machine: one 1.5 HP A/C Rectified base unit that takes up to five interchangeable aprons (13, 15, 17, 19 or 21 in), so a single purchase covers every rotary job in a building instead of buying a fixed-apron machine per size. This base unit ships with no apron, brush or pad driver — order the apron size(s) needed, then brushes and pad drivers, separately. The BOSS-1 runs at 175 RPM on a triple-planetary high-torque transmission.
- Precision-balanced, super heavy-duty 1.5 HP A/C Rectified motor on a triple-planetary high-torque transmission.
- Runs at 175 RPM — the correct speed(s) for stripping, scrubbing, spray buffing, shampooing and bonnet cleaning.
- Five interchangeable apron sizes (13, 15, 17, 19, 21 in) turn one base unit into a fleet of floor machines.
- Aprons mount with three easy thumb-screws; universal clutch brush drive.
- Safety interlock switch plus non-conductive dual triggers; 48 in fully adjustable handle.
- Non-marking super-thick bumper; 6 in non-marking fixed operating wheels.
- One 50 ft 14/3-gauge safety power cord. Accepts the optional SST-4 4-gallon solution tank and UWK unicorn weight kit.
- A complete order includes this base unit plus one or more aprons (ordered separately); brushes and pad drivers also ordered separately.
Receiving — do not sign clean
- Count the pieces against the bill of lading before the driver leaves. A machine, its batteries and its accessories can ship as separate items.
- Walk the pallet. Check the shrink-wrap, the crate corners and the machine itself — forks go through crates more often than anyone admits.
- Photograph any damage before you sign. Once the driver has your signature the photographs are worth much less.
- 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.
