The Karcher BD50/70 battery-operated micro ride-on scrubber drier with disc brush technology is extremely easy to manoeuvre and transport, thanks to its slim, compact design - it boasts a tiny 1.6m turning circle and can easily negotiate lifts.
Driven by powerful 105 Ah batteries, this affordable entry-level model delivers a practical and price-competitive alternative to walk-behind machines (batteries and charger set included).
Its simple operation and colour-coded control elements are as impressive as the many more sophisticated features. Featuring a Home Base kit, manual cleaning tools can travel with the operator - options include a bin bag holder and a pre-sweep mop - making the machine a flexible solution for cleaning operatives multi-tasking on a single shift.
Optional accessories: pre-sweep mop
- Picks up dry dirt, thus supporting the cleaning process.
- Helps to prevent blockages in the suction channel./
Lithium-ion batteries optionally available
- Time saving: Can be fully charged in two hours, depending on the battery charger. Can also be topped up between full charges.
- Lifetime is several times longer than lead acid batteries or gel batteries.
- Instead of the usual 80% provided by conventional batteries, it can use the battery's entire capacity.
The biggest advantage of hiring industrial cleaning machines is simple: cost savings. Purchasing hi-tech equipment means a large upfront investment, plus ongoing expenses like registration, storage, servicing, and repairs.
With hire, there’s no hefty outlay — freeing up your capital for other areas of the business. Better still, hiring is likely fully tax deductible in the first year, unlike owned equipment. And with servicing included, you can forget about unexpected repair bills too.
When you hire from ECA, you get far more than just a machine. Every hire includes full maintenance and servicing as standard, so your team never has to waste time on repairs or upkeep.
And if a machine can’t be fixed, we’ll simply deliver a replacement machine — keeping your business running smoothly without the stress or downtime.
Sometimes, the need for commercial cleaning equipment can’t be planned. Buying means long lead times — researching the right model, securing approvals, arranging payment, and waiting for delivery.
With ECA Hire, it’s simple. Get the machine you need, with fast delivery available. Our industry experts will guide you to the best machine for the job — and if needed, we can even visit your site to assess your requirements before supplying the latest, most productive Kärcher professional equipment.
The cleaning industry is evolving faster than ever — and we are proud to work very closely with Kärcher who leads the way with innovative, high-performance machines. By hiring, you’ll always have access to the latest models, fully cleaned, serviced, and ready to perform.
Hire for exactly as long as you need, and when the time comes again, you’ll receive the newest, most advanced version. For customer-facing businesses, this also means your equipment always looks professional and presentable — giving the right impression to staff, visitors, and the public.
Investing in cleaning machinery is a big commitment — so why not hire first? Hiring for a few weeks lets you test the machine in real-world conditions before making a capital purchase, giving you complete peace of mind.
You’ll benefit from expert advice and training along the way, ensuring you get the most from your equipment. By trialling, you can assess performance, flexibility, frequency of use, and the efficiency gains delivered — helping you make smarter, more informed buying decisions.
