Clean Tight Spaces Quietly During Opening Hours With a 550 mm Path
Cleaning Performance in Compact Spaces
- 563 mm machine width with a 550 mm cleaning path so it moves through aisles, patient rooms, checkout lanes and office corridors while covering more floor than a micro scrubber
- Self-levelling brush/pad so pressure stays even over floor irregularities and results stay consistent
- Up to 19 kg of down pressure at 150 rpm pad speed so everyday soil and grime lift without repeated passes
- Up to 2,285 m²/hr productivity so small and mid-sized sites are cleaned in fewer labour hours
- Up to 3.5 hours runtime (depending on mode and floor type) so a full shift is usually covered on one charge
Tanks, Water Recovery and Squeegee
- 50 L solution and 50 L recovery tanks so operators refill and empty less often
- 815 mm adjustable squeegee with Linatex® blades so water is picked up cleanly and floors dry quickly, reducing slip risk
- No-tool squeegee removal so post-clean maintenance is faster
Low Noise for Occupied Buildings
- ECO mode at 56 dBA so aged care, healthcare and education sites can be cleaned during the day with less disruption
- ECO mode also reduces water and energy use so running costs per clean are lower
Simple Operation and Maintenance
- Intuitive control panel with Standard and ECO modes so operators of any experience level can use it with minimal training
- LCD display with indicator lights for low solution and full recovery tank so operators know when to refill or empty without guesswork
- Yellow maintenance touch points so routine care and training are straightforward
- On-board charger so the machine can be charged anywhere there is a power point
- Water-resistant control panel and motor protection via an output regulator (self-propelled model) so the risk of electrical faults and overload is reduced and service needs stay low

Frequently Asked Questions
How much floor area can the T291 cover before it needs a refill?
With 50 L solution and 50 L recovery tanks and up to 2,285 m² per hour productivity, the T291 covers a substantial area between refills, so operators spend less time stopping to top up or empty tanks.
Is the T291 quiet enough to clean during business hours?
At as low as 56 dBA in ECO mode, the T291 suits noise-sensitive environments such as healthcare, aged care and education without disrupting occupants.
What warranty applies to the T291?
The T291 comes with 24 months on parts and 12 months on labour.
Does the T291 handle uneven or inconsistent floors well?
The self-levelling brush/pad adjusts to floor irregularities, so pressure stays even and cleaning results stay consistent across mixed floor conditions.
How long does the T291 run on a single charge?
Up to 3.5 hours depending on cleaning mode and floor type, which covers a full shift in most small-to-mid-sized facilities.
Should I choose the T291 or the T360?
The T291 has a 550 mm path, 50 L tanks and a 563 mm body, so it suits tighter and smaller sites. The Tennant T360 has a 700 mm path, 70 L and 75 L tanks and up to 2,940 m² per hour in a 750 mm body, so it suits larger floors where coverage matters more than tight access.
