Manufactured in Germany, the belt driven machine comes with a jockey wheel situated underneath the brush that allows you to adjust the height of the bristles, enabling a powerful or light brushing action. Thanks to the angled design the brush will not cause damage on block paving, tarmac and concrete. For more delicate surfaces we always recommend to carry out a test patch first.
