Background and Identification

The Clarke Floor Polisher is a rotary sander that can be used to improve the quality of a floor surface using a rotating abrasive disk. It may also be known as the RS-16 HDTR model by the Clarke brand, although it does not appear on their website. This sander has an active model number 56382881. However, there is also an obsolete model number, which is 07167A.

Rotary sanders such as this one are usually used alongside an edge sander, which can be used to sand the more difficult to reach areas of a room. For safety when operating this power tool, you and anyone else near the tool will need closed-toe shoes and eye and ear protection, as well as a mask to filter out any dust or wood particles that the sander will generate while running.

This floor sander is manufactured by a Denmark-based company Nilfisk, which manufactures industrial-grade cleaning equipment as well as consumer and commercial models. In 1916, Clarke began as a maker of floor sanders, and expanded to other cleaning equipment. The company was bought by Studebaker in the 1960s and later by Nilfisk. Clarke is now a regional brand within Nilfisk.
