The Minuteman E17 is a compact battery walk-behind floor scrubber with a 17" disc, a 33" squeegee, a 12 gal solution tank and a 13 gal recovery tank. Two 12 V batteries power it, and an on-board charger tops them up from a wall outlet wherever the machine is parked.
Choose brush drive for smaller rooms and short runs, or traction drive for a powered wheel, a speed dial and nearly double the rated productivity. The narrow 18.8" body gets into restrooms, classrooms, clinics and store aisles that larger walk-behinds cannot reach.
Features
Turn-of-the-Key Brush Change
The brush or pad driver loads and drops with the key switch, so nobody reaches under the deck to fit or remove it.
Compact 17" Disc Deck
One 17" disc at 180 rpm on a 3/4 HP motor, carried on a low deck that slides under shelving and furniture edges.
12 Gal Solution, 13 Gal Recovery
A wide-opening recovery tank rinses out quickly, and its lid seals on a captured gasket for a low cost of ownership.
Squeegee Without Daily Adjustment
The 33" rear squeegee is set so operators never tune it. The parabolic version is standard on traction drive and optional on brush drive.
On-Board Charger With Lockout
Charge from any wall outlet; the machine stays disabled while the charger cord is plugged in.
Traction Drive Option
Adds a 1/5 HP drive motor, a direction switch and a speed dial, with a 3.1 mph working speed against 1.7 mph for brush drive.
Adjustable Handle
The handle adjusts to the operator, and bail grips on both sides give a secure hold for steering.

About Minuteman
Minuteman International is based in Pingree Grove, Illinois, and is a member of the Hako Group. It builds commercial floor care equipment: automatic scrubbers, sweepers, carpet extractors, floor machines and vacuums for schools, hospitals, offices, retail and warehouses.
The E17 shares its 12 gal and 13 gal tanks with the E20, which widens the path to 20" and also comes with a cylindrical brush deck or a two-speed SPORT brush motor. For a corded compact machine, look at the E14; for bigger floors, the E26 steps up to a 26" twin-disc path.
