Deluxe Version

Baseboard cleaning

Now you can clean baseboards without having to purchase a separate machine, or worse, getting down on your hands and knees to scrub. That’s because the FM40 LX comes standard with an innovative baseboard cleaner attachment. This simple device easily attaches to the front of the machine to provide a convenient alternative for cleaning baseboards.

Switchable Modes

Easily switch between operating modes with the wheels up or on the floor. When the wheels are up, the FM40 LX provides the high fully directional maneuverability of traditional floor machines. When the wheels are down, it delivers high productivity forward-and-backward motion like a burnisher—with control so balanced that it enables single-handed operation and no fatigue.

Full Modularity for Easy Transport

The FM40 LX easily disassembles without tools to maximize the convenience of transportation. Each of its modular attachment components is painted bright yellow for easy identification. This allows BSCs and other operators who frequently lift and transport their equipment between job sites to separate it into easily manageable pieces.
