New Tennant T681 Rider Scrubber - 180AH Li-Ion Battery
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The T681 is Tennant’s small rider, and it makes the most sense in buildings that have outgrown a walk-behind but still have tight spots: retail stores, schools, hospitals and other mid-size floors. It scrubs a 32 in path, carries a 26.4 gal solution tank and a 29.1 gal recovery tank, and Tennant rates it at 33,982 sq ft per hour of estimated coverage. This is the package most buyers should look at first. The 180 Ah lithium-ion pack is the longest-running T681 option, at up to 3.5 hours of continuous scrubbing, and there is no battery watering to keep up with. The charger is onboard, so it plugs in wherever it parks. It comes with pad drivers, which suit smooth, sealed floors. One-button start lowers the scrub head and squeegee together, so new operators pick it up fast, and at 59.6 in long it turns around in 77.2 in, wall to wall.”

How long does the T681 run on a charge?

Does it come with a charger?
Yes. Every T681 package includes an onboard charger, so the machine plugs in wherever it parks.
Pad driver or brush driver?
This package comes with pad drivers, which suit smooth, sealed floors where pads do the work. Tennant also builds the same 180 Ah package with a brush driver (4187026) for textured floors and grout lines.
Will it fit my aisles and doorways?
The T681 is 59.6 in long, 42.9 in wide and 48.8 in high, and needs 77.2 in wall to wall to turn around. Measure your tightest doorway and aisle before you order.
Can it handle ramps?
Tennant rates the T681 for a maximum climbing grade of 16%, driven by a front traction motor.
