Where the BD 17/6 Compact Configuration Fits
The BD 17/6 is sized for facilities with frequent doorway and corridor transitions — restaurants, medical clinics, small retail stores, and school restroom areas — where a 20-inch-path machine would require turning adjustments. The 17-inch disc brush and 20-inch parabolic squeegee allow tight turns without lifting the squeegee manually. At 69 dB it runs during occupied business hours without noise complaints. The 6-gallon tank pair is smaller than the BD 20/11 series but sufficient for the smaller spaces the 17-inch path targets.
