The Minuteman Ambassador 20 is a self-propelled walk-behind carpet extractor with a 20" cleaning path. It sprays through four quick-disconnect jets at 100 psi, scrubs with a 4" brush and recovers with a 2 HP three-stage vacuum motor rated at 100 CFM and 105" of water lift.
Two 25-gallon tanks of rotationally molded polyethylene and a traction drive with a working speed dial let one operator clean hotel corridors, offices and institutional carpet with fewer stops to refill. It runs entirely on a 75' cord at 12 A.
Features
Self-Propelled Traction Drive
Forward/reverse switch, traction drive control levers and a working speed dial; the machine does the pushing.
Pivoting Spring-Loaded Vac Shoe
Minuteman's patented 20" stainless steel shoe follows the carpet and disengages when the machine backs up.
2 HP Three-Stage Vacuum
100 CFM of airflow and 105" of water lift pull the solution back into the recovery tank.
25 Gal Solution and Recovery Tanks
Rotationally molded polyethylene with Minuteman's patented MaxiWall tank design.
100 psi Pump, Four Jets
Quick-disconnect jets unclip for cleaning, and the pump switch has automatic and auxiliary positions.
43" Turning Radius
Brings the machine around at the end of a pass in corridors and meeting rooms.
Auxiliary Tool Hookups
A solution hookup and a 120 V auxiliary outlet run optional wands and upholstery tools without any tools needed to attach them.
