It runs at 175 RPM — the same scrubbing speed used on the BOSS-2 — but ships with the Unicorn Weight Kit (five 10-lb. weights) and a 4-gallon solution tank already included, eliminating the need to purchase accessories separately. The 1.5 HP A\/C rectified motor drives three interchangeable apron sizes (13\", 17\", 21\") via B\/92-style clutch-plate pad drivers (12\", 16\", 20\"), and the polished aluminum chassis adds structural mass that improves pad-to-floor contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBMT-175-Y Motor, Weight System, and Apron Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 HP A\/C rectified — runs cool and eliminates startup torque common in DC designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrush speed:\u003c\/strong\u003e 175 RPM — suited for scrubbing, stripping, and stone\/marble restoration work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnicorn Weight Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e five 10-lb. weights (50 lbs. total) on a central mounting shaft — adds downward pad pressure for diamond and aggressive pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolution tank:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-gallon polyethylene tank with chemical-resistant hose delivers solution directly through the apron to the floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApron sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13\", 17\", and 21\" with thumb-screw mount; pad drivers in 12\", 16\", and 20\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower cord:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50-ft. 14\/3-gauge safety cord — sufficient reach for large floor areas without moving the outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years on motor, gearbox, and chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the BMT-175-Y Gets Used\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of the weight kit and solution tank makes this machine particularly effective for stone, terrazzo, and marble restoration. Contractors running diamond crystallization programs or multi-step stone polishing programs use the weight kit to apply the 30–50 lbs. of additional downward force those processes require. The 4-gallon tank handles extended wet-scrubbing runs on VCT, epoxy, and sealed concrete without stopping to manually apply solution. The 21\" apron covers roughly 3,000–4,000 sq. ft. per hour at a walking pace, which suits hotel lobbies, hospital corridors, and retail floors where size matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePro Application Details for the BMT-175-Y\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 175 RPM, pad selection determines the result. Black stripping pads remove finish at this speed; green and blue pads scrub without stripping; red spray-buff pads restore gloss between full burnish cycles. With the Unicorn Weight Kit installed, aggressive diamond pads for stone honing seat correctly — without enough downward pressure, diamond pads skate rather than cut. The B\/92-style universal clutch plate accepts most aftermarket pad drivers. The machine weighs 175 lbs. fully loaded with the weight kit, so it stays planted and tracks straight without operator effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBMT-175-Y\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5 HP A\/C Rectified\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrush Speed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e175 RPM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApron Sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13\", 17\", 21\" (thumb-screw mount)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePad Driver Sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12\", 16\", 20\" (B\/92 clutch plate)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnicorn Weight Kit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 × 10 lb. weights, mounting shaft (included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolution Tank\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-gal. polyethylene, chemical-resistant hose (included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChassis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolished Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Wheels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\" Non-Marking, Fixed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Cord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50-ft. 14\/3-gauge safety cord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMachine Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e175 lbs.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 years on motor, gearbox, and chassis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDocuments\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8112\/2717\/files\/mercury-boss-multi-tasker-floor-machine-bmt-175-y-1-5-hp-motor-175-rpm-brush-speed-owners-manual.pdf?v=1736360803\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMercury BMT-175-Y Owners Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8112\/2717\/files\/mercury-boss-multi-tasker-floor-machine-bmt-175-y-1-5-hp-motor-175-rpm-brush-speed-wiring-diagram.pdf?v=1736360801\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMercury BMT-175-Y Wiring Diagram\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8112\/2717\/files\/mercury-boss-multi-tasker-floor-machine-bmt-175-y-1-5-hp-motor-175-rpm-brush-speed-sell-sheet.pdf?v=1736360801\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMercury BMT-175-Y Sell Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45207752966213,"sku":"BMT-175-Y","price":3128.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/1305\/5301\/files\/product-38648902254749.webp?v=1782326706","url":"https:\/\/machinehorizon.com\/products\/mercury-bmt-175-y-boss-multi-tasker-floor-machine-175-rpm-13-17-21-aprons","provider":"Machine Horizon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
