National 6280HD Walk-Behind Scraper
National 6280HD Walk-Behind Scraper (The Gladiator) is an industrial, heavy-duty floor demolition machine engineered to tear out tough commercial flooring materials, including ceramic tile, hardwood, glued sheet vinyl, rubber sports flooring, linoleum, elastomeric coatings, and bonded thin-set mortar. Built on a compact 17.75-inch-wide footprint, this self-propelled scraper fits through standard interior doorways, commercial elevators, and tight corridors while providing the downforce required for heavy slab cleanups. A 1.5 HP electric motor with thermal overload protection drives it, and a low-maintenance hydraulic transmission delivers infinitely variable forward and reverse speeds from 10 to 30 feet per minute.
Engineered around a high-efficiency orbital cutting action supported by nine heavy-duty shear-dampening isolators, the Gladiator slices through stubborn adhesives and ceramic beds while transferring minimum vibration to the operator. Patented secure-mount side slide weights allow operators to dial in head pressure by shifting weight forward onto the cutting head for stubborn thin-set or backward over the industrial siped drive wheels for enhanced traction on slippery underlayments. With a six-position collapsible handle for work under commercial racking, lifting bails for crane transport, and a comprehensive contractor tooling package, the 6280HD gives contractors an all-in-one floor preparation and demolition solution.
Main Features
- Hydraulic Variable-Speed Drive: Provides smooth, seamless self-propelled forward and reverse motion from 10 to 30 FPM with manual disengagement pins for unpowered maneuvering.
- Heavy-Duty Orbital Cutting Action: High-velocity blade rotation cuts through rigid and elastomeric flooring materials, extending machine life and dampening shock loads via nine internal isolators.
- Adjustable Side Slide Weights: Allow fast weight redistribution forward for maximum blade downpressure or rearward for improved wheel grip and traction.
- Compact Heavy-Duty Chassis: Delivers heavy commercial downforce within a narrow 17.75-inch width ideal for confined interior rooms and narrow commercial layouts.
- Six-Position Folding Handle: Adjusts ergonomically to operator height, fits beneath low overhangs and warehouse racking, and folds down for compact transit.
- 1.5 HP Electric Motor: Features thermal-overload protection; use the electrical supply specified on the supplied machine’s data plate.
- Debris-Deflecting Front Nose: Rounded cast-weight profile directs broken tiles and loose debris away from the chassis and drive path.
