IceBear Electric ice resurfacer concept designed with ease of operation in mind, the Olympia IceBear electric’s simplified operational controls are conveniently located within reach, allowing the operator to make precise blade adjustment during the cut. The Olympia IceBear Electric with its stainless steel construction has a 3.3m3 snow bin capacity and an ope-bin height of only 2.64m ideal in low ceiling applications, requiring as little as 0.61m front opening clearance.
The Olympia ICEBEAR® Battery Ice Resurfacer has been a proven leader since it's inception in the European market in 1984. In late 2004 Olympia purchased the IceBear line of ice resurfacers and performed a complete redesign using the best technologies that both companies had to offer. Since its redesign there have been hundreds of IceBears sold throughout Olympia's world wide dealer network.

The IceBear ice resurfacer's battery system is unique in it's own fashion designed and manufactured by EnerSys with deep cycle in mind. The batteries are based on a square tube design allowing for more surface area within the batteries cells. This allows for a deeper cycle than comparable size battery packs. The batteries are conveniently located behind easy opening battery access doors located in the fiberglass body panels on each side of the ice resurfacer. The batteries are easily watered with the stealth battery watering cart at the completion of a charge. The IceBear has an easy to read battery gauge. A reading of 100 on the battery gauge indicates a full charge. Likewise, a reading of 0 on the battery gauge indicates the batteries are at 20% and ready for recharge. Even if your final resurfacing brings you to zero reading you still have plenty of power to complete the final cut before connecting to the charger. The IceBear will perform 24 plus resurfacings without having an opportunity charge being performed. A standard charge takes roughly 7 to 8 hours to complete and is performed overnight while the facility is closed. During the charging process the battery pack is disconnected from the resurfacer to insure that the machine is inoperable during the maintenance process.
