Pingree Grove, Illinois (March 26, 2014) – Floor care equipment and chemical manufacturer Minuteman International is offering their state-of-the-art rider carpet extractor dubbed the X Ride 28. The machine is specially designed to improve the comfort and productivity of its operator, as well as to clean large carpeted areas as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Cleaning up to 9,060 square feet per hour (842 square meters), the X Ride 28 utilizes a cylindrical scrubbing action to cleanse both sides of carpet fibers. Its compact design enables operators to tidy up even the tightest spaces, and its off-aisle auxiliary wand, which can be pulled up to 50 feet, allows operators to reach into places where the machine cannot go. Furthermore, all models are equipped with large solution and recovery tanks, which require less time for filling or emptying. Each solution tank can carry up to 27 gallons of liquid, while a recovery tank can contain 24.5 gallons.

Industrial operators can find each X Ride 38 easy to understand because of its simple, intuitive control system. The control board has a LED battery indicator and hour meters to notify operators if preventive maintenance should be performed.

Besides having uncomplicated mechanisms, the model is environmentally friendly, with AGM maintenance-free batteries and seat sensors that automatically shut off the machine once the operator leaves the platform. It also has ergonomic adjustable seats for optimal operator comfort, foot pedal assemblies for simple motion, and safety roller wheels with anti-tip glaze to prevent overturning. Every unit also comes with resettable fuses to maintain temperatures at the right level. In case of breakdowns, operators can remove parts without needing extra tools.

The X Ride 28 ensures fresh and clean carpets in minutes, reducing room and carpet area shutdown times. It is deployed in high-traffic areas like airports, convention centers, casinos, hotels, office buildings, and schools.
