Product Description
Karcher Stand-On Floor Scrubbing
26-inch cylindrical stand-on scrubbing with integrated wet pre-sweeping, large-capacity tanks, multiple battery and charger configurations, and productivity up to 27,639 ft²/hr.
The Karcher Chariot 3 iScrub 26 SP is a high-productivity stand-on automatic floor scrubber featuring a 26-inch cylindrical scrub deck with integrated wet pre-sweeping. It is designed for facilities that need strong brush agitation, debris collection, and water recovery in a single cleaning pass.
The cylindrical brush system is especially effective on grouted, textured, uneven, porous, and debris-prone hard floors. As the machine moves forward, the counter-rotating cylindrical brushes scrub the floor and help direct light debris into the integrated debris hopper.
With practical productivity up to 27,639 ft²/hr, a 25-gallon solution tank, a 27-gallon recovery tank, and multiple wet-battery, AGM-battery, charger, and chemical-metering configurations, the Chariot 3 iScrub 26 SP is a strong fit for schools, airports, warehouses, healthcare facilities, retail stores, government buildings, and large commercial properties.

What Is a Cylindrical Scrub Deck?
A cylindrical scrub deck uses counter-rotating roller brushes instead of circular disc brushes or pad drivers. The brushes scrub the floor while directing light debris into an integrated collection hopper.
- Scrubs and collects light debris in one pass
- Helps reduce separate pre-sweeping labor
- Works well on grout lines and textured flooring
- Provides strong brush agitation across uneven surfaces
- Good fit for facilities with sand, dust, and light debris
- Heavy debris should still be removed before scrubbing
Recommended Applications
- Schools, colleges, and universities
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Retail stores and supermarkets
- Airports and transportation facilities
- Warehouses and distribution facilities
- Government and municipal buildings
- Commercial office buildings
- Facilities with grouted, textured, uneven, or porous floors
- Facilities with sand, dust, and light floor debris

Cylindrical Scrubbing Productivity
The Chariot 3 iScrub 26 SP combines stand-on productivity with cylindrical brush agitation and integrated wet debris collection. This can reduce labor by allowing operators to scrub and collect light debris during the same cleaning pass.
Designed for productive cleaning on textured, grouted, and debris-prone hard floors.
Stand-on operation helps reduce walking fatigue and increase coverage per shift.
Why choose cylindrical scrubbing?
- Strong brush agitation on grout lines and textured floors
- Wet pre-sweep hopper helps collect light debris
- Can reduce the need for a separate pre-sweeping pass
- Good fit for schools, warehouses, airports, and public buildings
- Better suited to uneven surfaces than many pad-based scrubbers
Actual productivity may vary based on floor type, soil level, debris load, brush selection, water flow, chemical-metering settings, operator speed, battery condition, squeegee condition, dumping time, and facility traffic.

What is the advantage of cylindrical scrubbing?
Cylindrical scrubbing provides strong brush agitation and can collect light debris during the cleaning pass. It is especially useful on grouted, uneven, textured, or porous floors.
Does the machine eliminate pre-sweeping?
The wet pre-sweep hopper can reduce separate pre-sweeping for light debris. Large, heavy, or excessive debris should still be removed before scrubbing.
Should I choose wet or AGM batteries?
Wet batteries generally provide a lower initial equipment cost but require routine watering. AGM batteries are sealed and maintenance-free.
What is the advantage of an on-board charger?
An on-board charger travels with the machine and allows charging from compatible electrical outlets without returning to a separate shelf charger.
What does chemical metering do?
Chemical metering helps maintain a more consistent detergent dilution, reduce waste, and simplify operator training.
What is the cleaning width?
The Chariot 3 iScrub 26 SP has a 26-inch cleaning path.
What is the tank capacity?
The machine has a 25-gallon solution tank and a 27-gallon recovery tank.
What chemicals should be used?
Use a low-foam automatic scrubber detergent compatible with the floor type and soil level. Neutral cleaners are generally recommended for routine finished-floor cleaning.
Should replacement brushes, batteries, and blades be machine options?
No. Only complete machine configurations should be selectable options. Replacement brushes, batteries, chargers, squeegee blades, keys, chemicals, and other wear parts should remain separate accessories.
