Broom with a view

Wind, rain, falling leaves and who knows when the snow might fall? There's debris, mud, slush and all the harsh realities of autumn and winter tidying to contend with in municipal and amenity areas, paths, drives and estate maintenance.

Whether you're a semi-professional or professional contractor looking for a suitable way to clear up there is an extensive line-up of BroomEx pedestrian sweepers to do the job.

The semi-professional machines are ideal for private estates, equestrian centres, agriculture and the construction industries. Higher specification models are for the realm of councils and contractors.

If you take the view that you want one machine to do all, look to the PS, PT and PH model designations and you have power brooms that will take on all the winter clear-up tasks with, in addition to a variety of brushes, a range of attachments including a leaf pusher, snow blade and snow chains.

So once the autumn leaves have been cleared you're ready to deal with snowfalls using the same machine. No shovelling or scraping while you walk behind the BroomEx on a clean, swept path, with the rotating brush effortlessly sweeping the snow to either side, ready for the application of salt de-icer.

Make no mistake, these are heavy-duty machines designed to take the punishment of professional life. The top end models are designed for use in the harshest of conditions.

These are built-for-life hydraulic sweeping machines available in 100cm and 120 cm working widths, ideal for professionals who need a broom that will take the punishment while rewarding the user with speed, ease of use and hydrostatic transmission for maximum versatility.

The PH range features the fastest of the BroomEx pedestrian sweepers. With Honda power they cover up to 4,900 and 5,800 square metres per hour respectively, with a driving speed of 3mph (4.9 km/hr) and the drive includes reverse.

The variable brush speed is operated from the working position and the handlebars are seven stage height adjustable with multi-function hand levers for maximum control. Brush pressure is also adjustable.

All BroomEx models are finished in high quality three layer lacquered paintwork, similar to the finish used in the automotive industry, for surface protection from corrosion.
