GENERAL INFORMATION
The TreadMaster is a specialized machine designed to clean escalators and moving
sidewalks (horizontal “people movers”) in commercial establishments such as airports,
hotels, shopping malls, schools, hospitals, factories, shops and offices.
It is simple to set up and automatic in its operation. The TreadMaster’s weighted head
assembly fits down into the tread of the escalator to loosen soil and debris. A vacuum
chamber and nozzle collects and deposits the loose debris in a vacuum bag, which is
located in the housing assembly. A polishing pad then finishes cleaning the top of the
tread.
The TreadMaster is available in five basic head assemblies, and can also be custom built
according to the step width of your escalator or moving walkway. The same housing can
be used or interchanged with any
of the custom-sized head assemblie
s. See Table 1 and
Table 2 on page 34 for detailed configuration information.
