| Grain The broom that goes against the grain BroomEx C-Max push brooms are different from other brooms. esigned with patented side retainers to hold bulk volumes of material in front of the brush, the C-Max avoids spillage at the sides. In itself that represents a major time-saving which, coupled with the ease and speed of mounting the brush to a telehandler, skidsteer, fork lift or category II three-point hitch, makes the C-Max the ideal broom for anything from large scale grain moving and clear up, to a whole range of uses around the farm, in landscape maintenance, warehouses and distribution sites, snow clearance and much more. Because there’s no need to spend time going over swept areas to clear spill lines you can move swiftly though the work and the end brushes are also carefully twisted so they pull D www.farmingmonthly.co.uk material away from a wall or curb, sweeping it into the main path of the broom. Add to this the fact that there are no belts, chains, pulleys or anything else to potentially create down time, and there’s no flying debris, you can see the CMax is safe and maintenance free. Hard wearing polypropylene bristles with a high-tensile steel broom head and mounting hardware, in a heavy-duty powder coated finish, ensure the brooms are durable and designed for a long life. You can sweep up to 450 miles before changing bristles. Such is the versatility that BroomEx brooms will sweep small rocks, mud and snow as well as pushing grain in the grain store and you get the benefit of being able to use the squeegee effect on wet floors. What’s also different is BroomEx brooms stand on their own weight and the bristles are so rigid you could jump up and down on them without them giving way. Other brooms have the inconvenience of having to be placed in some sort of stand as the bristles will not support the weight when not in use. There are no belts, chains, pulleys or anything else to potentially create down time, and there’s no flying debris: the C-Max is safe and maintenance free Available in 1.5m, 1.8m and 2.4m widths the BroomEx C-Max clearly demonstrates how you can be different and yet very, very effective.
