Do you wish your current vacuum was easier to empty? Would you like to be able to vacuum wet and dry materials without changing filters or modes? Does the cloth filter waft clouds of filthy dust all over you when it's time to empty it? If your answer to any of these questions is yes, then you'll be pleased to see the Brigadier. Designed specifically for daily use in agricultural and industrial applications the Brigadier ticks all the boxes for:
One of the biggest issues with vacuum cleaning equipment is encountered when emptying the full collection tank. Not only are conventional vacuums extremely cumbersome and awkward to empty, but when they're full they're a real Health and Safety hazard. With the Brigadier emptying is a quick and easy process that takes the effort and the risk out of the whole procedure. The operator simply lifts a handle which smoothly lowers the collection tank, which in turn can be simply wheeled out to a dumping point. Another feature of the Brigadier is its superb performance on wet or dry materials. As vacuuming is a task where all sorts of materials can be encountered, including oil and sludge, the Brigadier has been developed to allow vacuuming of sludge and muck without having to stop to change filters. Similarly oil spills are no problem for the Brigadier - it literally swallows the lot in one gulp. Adding to the list of useful features on this machine is an indicator light which illuminates when the filter needs cleaning. No more clouds of dust blasting up into the air - the Brigadier's filter design means that it lifts out cleanly and dusts from inside the drum are not thrown back all over the operator. Built to extremely high quality standards, the Brigadier is fitted with three heavy duty 1150w motors, which are all independently switchable for maximum efficiency, and features small but highly significant details such as extra cable gland protection, heavy-duty motor housing clips, and smooth rolling castors, one of which is braked. And what's more, you can even choose from two variants of the Brigadier, one with the accessories you'll need for basic vacuum tasks, the other with a full set of high quality accessories for every vacuuming situation:
