LS175

Reach every curb. Clean like a full-size

The Madvac LS175 is a compact, closed-cabin sweeper designed to access narrow urban environments your full-size street sweeper can’t. Built with a rugged North American frame and a high-dump stainless steel container, the LS175 offers powerful sweeping, vacuuming, and optional pressure washing — all in a compact 48-inch footprint. It’s ideal for cities, institutions, and contractors needing full functionality in a smaller format.

LS175 at a glance

The LS175 is the only 48″ wide, closed-cabin, high-dump sweeper built in North America — purpose-built for tight city lanes, alleys, and curbsides. Its powerful Hatz Tier 4 Final diesel engine delivers 58.5 HP of sweeping and vacuum power, while the 3-stage filtration process ensures effective dust control. An ergonomic operator cabin with HVAC, 200° visibility, and joystick-controlled brushes maximizes comfort and precision. Built to last with a 10–12 year lifespan and fast OEM parts support, the LS175 is a smart long-term investment for any fleet.
